GLAWSON % CD OPERATIVE BODIES TO SELL MODE GOODS New Association Being Formed and Old Ones Enlarged Fur 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- t > ’ v ._ •—>—.— „_,4, ■ * I J. ___ w W#4l ! w , ir I ’ T-- : ", STI “ IH’lwiMllf I IL> y I hi II I /, t I 111 v7 f w < £ /t/7J 1 / V -**_ Copyright 1923 Hart Schaffner & Marx THE STYLE YOU WANT FOR FALL » I Hart Schaffner & Marx Clothes have it all i No matter how stylish a suit is, if it isn t closer fitting models for very young the style, you want, you don’t want it. men. , ,>» Men’s tastes differ; and we take You m t y have definite Preferences »l ’ a3 to lapels, buttons, the drape of ihr ese differences into account when coat> t fr e cut o f t he trousers.

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 !

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.” Get Thedford's, the original and only genuine Black-Draught powdered liver medicine.
