New Association Being Formed

nish Basis For Belief
ATLANTA, August 31.—C0-op
erative associations will market
“considerably more” farm products
in 1923 than last year, according
to an official bulletin of the Unit
ed States Department of Agricul
ture received here.
While it is impossible to estimate
how much business they will do,
the report asserts, the fact new as
sociations are being formed and
I o'd ones- enlarged is ground for
I the belief the amount of the year'£
| crops to be marketed co-operative
! ly will exceed ali former figures.
An important factor in promot
ing co-operative marketing is the
i improvement made in credit facili-
I ties recently.
j “First steps toward better credit
■ accomodations- for co-oepratives
; were taken in 1921, when congress
j enlarged the powers of the War
i Finance corporation,” the report
I reads. “Up to date that organi
zation has authorized advances to
coo-peratives amounting to .more
than $190,000,000. Althoguh only
$38,500,000 of the money has been
actually used, the fact that it was
. available has been a powerful bene
j ficial influence,” say officials of
the department.
“Many co-operative associations
are opening up lines of credit at
the new institutions will function
because the War Finance corpora
tion will ceases making advances on ‘
February 29, next. It is believed!
the new institutions Iwil function I
much as the War Finance corpora-!
tion has done in giving confidence
and loosening up additional outside!
credit. They have already authoriz
ed advances of about $5,000,000 to
I farmers’ co-operative associations
handling cotton, wheat, wool, to
bacco and canned fruits.
“It is pointed out that the real
service of the intermediate credit
banks, like that of thd War Finance
corporation, can not be measured
merely by the volume of their dis-

counts or advances. Their chief
value is seen in the tact that the
credit made available by them often
induces or encourages private
financial institutions to offer cred
it accomodation, when of.herwipe
they might stand aloof. Some co
operative marketing associations in
) the last two years have been of
fered adequate credit from private
sources only after they had obtain
ed pledges of accomodation from
the government agencies.
“The intermediate credit banks
seem lively nevertheless to operate
soon on a bigger scale than was ex
pected. Each of the twelve insti
tutions was provided with a capital
of $1,000,000 from the treasury!
immediately after it was organized. I
Five of them have since called fori
additional capital to a tbtal amount!
of $5,000,000. so that the present'
paid-in capital of the twelve banks
is $17,000,000. Moreover, an is-i
sue of a large demand for discounts I
and advances in the coming market- !
ing season. Discounts of agricul-!
tural paper for banks have been |
made to the amount of $1,000,000 |
by the intermediate credit institu-!
tions.
, "For the present, the Federal
Farm Loan board, which supervis
es the banks, is limiting loans and
discounts to terms of nine months. '
Borrowers, however, have the prac- j
tical assurance that the terms will!
be renewed when necessary. Re-j
liance on renewals from the inter-'
mediate credit banks, according to j
officials to the Department of Ag-'
riculture, has a stronger justifies-!
tion than is the case where loans
of commercial banks are concern-! 1
ed, because the latter are always
under the obligation of protecting '
their deposit liabilities. ’ i !

such associations are confident all 1

FOR CONSTIPATION
Black-Draught Recommended by
an Arkansas Fanner Who Has
Used It, When Needed,
for 25 Years.
Hatfield, Ark.—Mr. G. W. Parsons, a
well-known farmer on Route 1, this place,
says: “I keep Black-Draught in my home
all the time. It is the best all-around
medicine I have ever found for the liver
and for constipation. We began using it
25 or more years ago and have used if
whenever needed since. I have never
found any other medicine as good for
constipation, and that was what 1 suffer
ed with till 1 began using Black-Draught.
Black-Draught corrected this condition,
and now we use it for the liver and for
indigestion—a tight and sluggish feeling
after meals, for bad taste in the mouth
and-sour stomach.
“My wife uses it for headache and
biliousness. It sets on our shelf and we
don’t let it get out. It has been a great
help to us. 1 believe a great deal of
sickness is caused by hurried eating and
constipation, and Black-Draught, if taken
right, will correct this condition.”
