age person, however, can easily be de-
ceived, and the following simple
tests should assist him in striking a
bargain. The facets on a real dia-
mond are rarely so regular as those
of really good imitations. With the
latter the greatest care has to be tak-
en in grinding and polishing, so that
there shall be no regularity in the
reflections of the light.
A file cannot scratch a real dia-
mond. but quickly injures an imita

mond at a black dot on a piece of
white paper you will see one black
speck quite clearly. If the dot is
blurred or multiplied the stone is
probably not genuine.

Keep in mind that a diamond is
very seldom absolutely perfect. The

NEW YORK, Oct. 19—When Pres-
ident Wilson declared that the "ques-
tion of rural credit is the most vital
and important problem confronting
the American people today," he cer-
tainly knew whereof ht spoke.
You farmers who go blindly on
from year to year letting financiers
dictate whether you shall have eno-
ugh cash at reasonable interest with
which to run your farms, are doing
a very foolish and unnecessary
thing.
Yesterday I told you how you
could form an efficient national mar-
keting organization with ramifica-
tions in every townsnip In the coun-
try.
Today I am going to show you
how you can form a national rural
credit system along the same lines.
A system owned and controlled, not
by bankers, not by business or pro-
fessional men nor by anyone whose in
terests would conflict with yours—
but owned and controlled absolutely
by you—The Farmer.
What I tell you here is nothing but
facts about a system which, in the
151 years it has been in operation in
Germany, has not knowa a single
failure.
Its bonds now, holds their own as
they always have, whether in normal
or in abnormal times. Why?
BECAUSE ITS BONDS ARE BAS-
ED UPON THE LAND ITSELF,
WHICH NO ONE CAN HARM.AND
THEY ARE BONDS ISSUED BY
THE FARMER HIMSELF.
The system is known as the Lands-
chaft. YOU can adopt it in the U.
S. if you will. You would thus

SEPTEMBER CROP CONDITIONS.I
Washington, Oct. 19—The estim !
ates of the department of agriculture
for October 1 show a record crop of |
wheat, oats, barley and hay, and a j
corn crop closely approaching the re-1
cord. The returns to that depart-!
ment indicate a production of ap-;
proximately three billion bushels of
corn, one and a halflnllion bushels ofj
oats, one billion bushels of wheat, al-;
most a quarter billion bushels of bar- j
ley, and a hundred million tons of
hay, if the twenty million tons of:
wild hay, a crop no' heretofore re-1
ported upon, be included.
! According to reports received by
the department, prospects improved J
j 'bring September for ail of these
crops. The conditions during the
month were genera'ly favorable to
the maturity of growing crops to
harvesting and to fall plowing. The
proportion of warm and sunny days
was higher than in prior months,
though there were rather general
storms toward its close. The mols-
| ture for the month was normal or be-
low, except in portions of the north
1 central states, particularly the north-
' >*rn tier. The droughty conditions in
1 ome gulf and western states were
relieved by late rains in most states
affected. Frost did little damage,
except in portions of the extreme
northern states.

association.
The security farmer Bill Smith
gives to this organization (in which
he is a partner, by the way) is a
mortgage on his particular land.
Under this system there are no law-
suits because the farmer's mortgage'
is rendered equivalent to a judgment j
against the land, which the organiza-1
tion itself would enforce, if necessary j
to collect.
Before this system could be suc-
cessfully operated in the United'
States, however, the national govern-
ment would have to pass legislation j
prohibiting further questions of land
titles on lands of these co-operations,
and also for determining the soil
valuation of each section. State law
changes would also be necessary in
this connection.
However, this is the only REAL
solution of the problem of rural cred-
it. Why have you not got your con-
gerssional representative in line on
it? Also your state legislature
You will find some of the moneyed
interests opposed to all this, for in-
stance, the mortgage money lenders.
But the other and large moneyed
interests of the country will favor
this system, because it will put you
on a prosperous basis and therefore
increase and stabilize the value of
their own interests.
You will find that your opposition
will come from the small loan finan-
cial interests, who are not anxious to
see you get out of their grip by or-
ganizing your own financial system
and having the people at large turn
their money over direct to you, on
bona fide and gilt edge security, be-
cause they are at present obtaining
this very money from the people and
lending it out to you
You must not forget the' you own
the land; and that the land is the ba-
sis of all wealth; that therefore you
hold the fundamental security. It
is only a question of putting this se-
curity in acceptable form.
