WAS FIRST AMERICAN BANK Boston Institution That Issued S4OCV -000 In Scrip la 1714 Is Accorded That Honor. | The flrat.bank in America, located on State street, Boston, loaned money on real estate, personal property and imperishable merchandise, though it bad not the privilege of Issuing money, then a prerogative of the Bay State colony. After a few years Bos ton's first branch discontinued busi ness and was started in 1714. ten years after the first newspaper -?aa printed In Boston. The new bank car ried on business and issued (400,000 in scrip on the basis now sought by cer tain financial promoters and leaden. It was scrip and nothing but scrip, %nd consequently the bank was short-lived. In 1742 a land-bank was founded by several hundred subscribers who gath ered In Boston as the bankers are meeting today and who attempted to relieve the scarcity of specie by is suing scrip based on real estate hold ings. A specie bank was also founded about the same time, but both insti tutions found it as Impossible to com pete with the "bills of credit" issued by nearly every colpny as It would be j today to rival the government in mint- i ing money. .All this paper money rap idly depreciated In value, owing to the constant and heavy expenditure for military movements of offense and de fense against the Canadian French and thelr a lndlan allies. In 1782, during the revolution, the Bank of North America of Philadel phia received a charter from congress, and its operations In the Bay State in spired the establishment of the Bank of Massachusetts in March, 1784, an institution which is still In operation as the First National bank of Boston. —National Magazine. HER RIGHTS IN THE HOME Woman Contends That Wife's Services Are Worth More Than Food and Raiment—Her Remedy.

A wife gen erally 0. all that a servant would do, and a great deal more, works more bbura a day . than a man and goes through ordeals that are almost beyond human endurance, yet many wives do endure this for half a century with Only enough to eat and keep them warm, never having an extra dollar to spend. They oven have to ask for money to buy postage stamps. I think a woman should have abso-' lute control of all household affairs. She should watch corners and know how to deal wisely.

Cora Belle's team would bring a smile to the soberest face alive. Sheba Is a tall, lanky old mare. Once she was bay In color, but the years have added gray hair until now she Is roan. Being so long-legged she strides along at an amazing pace which her mate, Balaam, a little donkey, finds It hard to keep up with. Balaam, like Sheba, Is full of years. Once his glossy brown coat was the pride of some Mexican's heart, but time has added to his color also, and now he is blue. His eyes are sunken and dim, his ears no longer stand up In true donkey style, but droop dejectedly. He has to trot his best to keep up with 1 Sheba's slowest stride. About every three miles he balks, but little Cora Belle doesn't call It balking, she says Balaam has stopped to rest, and they sit and wait till he is ready to trot along again.

Adolph Ollblalr of Bkowhegan, Me., has two pet coons which he haa trained and cares for daily. He got these coons from a farmer about four months ago, and they are now as play ful as kittens and will frolic with each other, rolling over and over like two little dogs, and they do not show any savage or wild disposition.

Occasionally, the theory Is an nounced that the boll weevil can be controlled by late planting better than by early planting of the crop. The bureau of entomology has conducted many experiments to determine whether late planted cotton will pro duce a satisfactory crop. The results have all been negative.

On this account an unusually large experiment which was provided by natural con ditions In Louisiana Is of Interest. In the spring of 1913 there was an overflow by Bayou de Glalze In Avoy elles parish, occurring In May and continuing until early In June. On one side of the bayou a strip of land one mile long and from eight to ten miles wide was flooded. The levee on the opposite side of the bayou re tained the water. Cotton was planted early on the one side and late on tho other, If has furnished a large scale contrast between the two methods of planting In the same locality and on identical soil formations.
