TUESDAY, JANUARY 30, 1917 A SOWER OF SEED Holy Writ speaks of the "Sower who went forth to sow," and states that some fell on stony ground; some amidst the weeds and that some fell on" good ground and brought forth "an hundred; fold." A Newspaper must be a "Sower of Seed," and some must fall on stony ground, and some be choked by weeds (adverse criticism) and some bring forth abundantly. There is no intimation that the seed were not good. In fact the in timation is- that ALL germinat ed except those falling on stony ground. Therefore in making suggestions from time to time in our editoral column we can only expect part of our sugges tions to bear fruit. We pledge you to sow only good seed. We mean by this, seed of proven worth by experience and obser vation. For instance, if we should say to our Town Commis sioners that experience and ob servation had shown that the ROAD DRAG improved the roads upon which it was used, and that, the Road Machine was a splendid and cheaply operated implement for making smoothe the rough places, and then in cidently point to Warrenton's streets, we would believe that the seed would fall on good ground, and bring forth abun dantly. Let us hope so! THE SEMI-WEEKLY REN RECORD WAR- We have commenced a for ward step in the Newspaper field in Warren county. We are sending our readers the Warren Record twice each week. We be lieve you will like it. Therefore we are taking the necessary steps to place at your, fireside the County news twice each week. There was a time when the farmer and business man was satisfied to get his mail once a week ; but in this age of rapid eommunication ; this day of Elec tricity and of daily mails, the Weekly newspaper does not quite keep step with the march of progress. Believing this and desiring to keep abreast of the times, we greet you with this issue of the WARREN RECORD in semi-weekly form. We trust you will like it, and will give us wrords of appreciation and your support in this effort to be of service to you and to OUR County- : - ; January 6,1917. My Pear Governor J - , " The Actof Congress know as the Federal Farm Loan Act of July 17, 1916, was passed "to pro vide capital for agricultural develop ment; to create a standard form of investment based upon farm mort gages; to equalize rates of interest upon farm loans,"" etc. It provides for long-time amortized loans to farmers at a lower rate of interest than has hitherto prevailed in most sections of the country, and will meet the credit necessities of a vast num ber of farmers, particularly the own ers of small farms whose lack of touch with financial centers, or the modesty of whose demands, have hitherto prevented their securing loans at all, irrespective of the rate of interest. In order to secure an adequate sup ply of money for farm mortgage pur poses, the Federal Land Banks will issue bonds secured by the deposit as collateral of first mortgages on farm lands. I inclose "several copies of Circular No. 6, issued by the Fed eral Farm Loan Board, entitled "Farm loan bonds," describing fully the manner of issue and character of these bonds. The Federal Farm Loan Act pro vides that these bonds "shall be a law ful investment for all fiduciary and trust funds and may be accepted as security for all public deposits." This, of "course, relates only to fiducary and trust funds under the jurisdiction and control of the Federal Government. Iir order to make these bonds lawful investments for trust funds and sav ing banks in the several States it is nessary that each State enact laws to that effert unless such laws are al ready in existence. I shall be great ly obliged if you will advise me promptly whether or not, under the existing laws of your State, these bonds will be legal investmetns tor trustees and guardians and for sav ing banks and insurance companies. If they are not, may I beg that you will recommend to the Legislature of your State at its present session the enactment of the necessary laws . to make them legal investments. Such legislation would accomplish the double benefit of putting within the .reach of trustees and guardians an absolutely safe investment, yield ing a satisfactory income. for the ben efiiaries under their trusts and widen the opportunity for a safe investment of the savings of masses, while, at the same time, it would prove of immense benefit to the farmers of your State in enlarging the market for farm loans and farm mortgages, thereby assuring a larger amount of availa ble credit for the needs of the farml ers of your State and at a lower rate of interest than those now preval ing. I have taking the liberty of for warding a copy of this letter, together with Circular No. 6 of the Federal Farm Loan Board relating to "Farm loan bonds," to the various farm or ganizations in your State, with the request that they cooperate with you in any measure you may adopt look ing toward the enactment of the de sired legislation. Bespeaking an early reply, and hop ing that I may count upon your co operation in this matter, I am, Cordially yours, W. G. McADOO, Secretary. Some one has said that no knowl edge is ever attained or. any exper ience lived through that is not of value in life. Little did Mrs. Gil liam then realize when, as a yo.jng girl, she studied drawing and paint ing with such enthusiam, that she was laying a foundation of priceless value for her life work of photogra phy. ' Though located in the little town of Mbrganton she has been able to make her influence felt in many places, and is claiming customers in an ever widening radius. Mrs. Gilliam was left a widow with several small children to provide for and dollars had to come. She in instinctively turned to her old pur suit of the beautiful, but this time the camera was her means of expres sion, rather than the paint brush. The dollars came.v She could never have attained the profiency that 'marks her work if it had been for this early training. She has proven her self a worth while woman in every respect, capable of rising to every emergency that life" has brought. To day she is surrounded by a family who are no longer children, but suc cessful men and women; secure in the esteem of her townsfolk, and happy in a prosperious business. Mrs. Gil liam stands for two things : what a woman can accomplish when it is nec essary, and what an excellent profes sion photography is for a woman. She is an enthusiastic member of the Women's Federation of the Photogra phers' Association of America. Mrs. Wooden in Everything. Relieves by Inhalation and Absorption. No Stomach Dosing. 7 Plenty of fresh air in the bedroom and a good application of Vick's "Vap-O-Kub" Salve over the throat and chest is the best defense against all cold troubles. The medicated vapors, released by the body heat, loosen the phlegm, clear the . air passages and soothe the inflamed mem brane. In addition, Vick's is absorbed through the skin. 25c, 50c, or $1.00. : Up - MARRIAGE LICENSES Captain Price, Deputy Register of Deeds, informs us that he has issued between twenty-five and thirty Mar riage licenses during January.

FARM LOAN PRIMER The Secretary of the National Farm Loan Board has forward ed to us literature in respect to the Farm Loan plan of the Gov ernment. We are publishing part of this literature, because we desire our farmers to avail themselves of the privilege offer ed by the Government to pur chase homes, to improve those now owned and to get on their feet financially. . In our opinion this Plan of indirect aid by the Government is the greatest sin gle -thing accomplished within this generation for all of the peo ple, for when you put the land owner on "easy street" so to speak, all of us are benefited.
