SENATOR PLEADS
FOR CONSERVATION.
Addressing Sportsmen Ho Tells Them
They Should Trotcct All Wild
Life.
Speaking at Thursday night's ses
sion of the sportsmen's convention in
Scranton, United States Senator
Boles Penrose advocated good roads,
forest conservation, protection of
streams from pollution and the con
servation and protection of all wild
life and urged co-operation between
the farmers and the sportsmen of the
state. After a brief introductory
statement of his pleasure in meet
ing the sportsmen, Senator Penrose
gave the key to his address as fol-

lows: "The true sportsman, whether
lie be hunter or fisherman, if he is
loyal to the real interests of his fav
vorite vocation, will always be an
earnest friend of conservation in the
most comprehensive meaning of the
term."
He gave praise to the sportsmen
of this state for the work they have
done in securing better laws for the
protection of all wild life and then
delighted his large and appreciative
audience with porsonal reminiscences
of liis hunting days in the Rocky
Mountains. Ho told, picturesquely
of the changes in the physical condi
tion of the country since the advent
of the white man and expressed the
thought that in the early stages of
the country's history the destruction
of wild game and the forests were
necessary in the onward march of
civilization.

He said that Pennsylvania is in the

such sanctuaries and he urged their
adoption in all states.
The senator spoke of the value of
Arbor day in educating the children
to tho necessity of forest conserva
tion and aroused the enthusiasm of
the sportsmen when he suggested
that the state have Bird Day, either
in connection with Arbor Day or
separately, "devoted to instructing
children in the value of our native
birds and the best means of protect
ing them." The senator urged the
raising of game as an economic prop
osition, particularly the elk and deer
which he said wore as good or bet
ter food than the steer or sheep. On
this point he said:
"Tho elk and deer can be raised
successfully and cheaply under many
different conditions of food and cli
mate. Safeguard, of course, against
the destruction and sale of wild deer,
under the guise of domesticated deer
must be made and enforced. Game
laws deserve tho hearty support and
co-operation of the farmers of the
state and of the country. The object
of game preservation is not only to
preserve a few aninicls and birds to
furnish sport for a limited number,
but to protect and increase useful
species for tho benefit of the people
in general. The object is the pre
servation not oniy of game animals
and game birds, but also birds of
song and plumage, and those which
are useful as scavangers or as de
stroyers of injurious insects and
noxious weeds.
"Tn 9. pprtnin pvtpnf crrmn onncop.
vation restricts the increase of in
jurious species and prevents the in
troduction of animals and birds
wnicn aro likely to become pests.
Moreover, tho tendency of the game
laws has been to restrict hiinMnrv
to shorten the open seasons; to pro-
mou non-game throughout the year,
and to abolish netting and trapping
entirely."
The speaker closed by urging pro
tection for tho insectivorous birds, as
he said they are of great value to the
farmers of tho state. Ho said
"Weeds and injurious insects cost
the farmers of tho United States mil
lions of dollars annually, directly
and indirectly. Anything that tends
to reduce the number of weeds or to
check the ravages of injurious in
sects is a direct benflt. By way of
illustration, tlin
lark is perhaps one of the most valu-
itmu 01 an oiras, ror more tnan half
of its food consists of harmful insects
and tho vecetahlo nnrMnn nf itn fnra
is largely made up of seeds of in
jurious weeas.
"The nighthawk, almost exclu
sively Insectivorous, and usually sup
posed to feed on insects which fly a
distance above the ground, has been
shown to feed on grasshoppers and
flickers devour thousands of ants.
"There should be complete co-operation
between the sportsmen and
the farmers of Pennsvlvtinin Tho
sportsmen should endeavor to pro
tect tne farmer from persons who
mutilate Stock or tenr rlnwn fpnppa
or commit injurious trespass. It
wouiu 00 wen lr tne sportsmen could
attend tho Grange meetings and oth
er gatherings of farmers so that
farmer and sportsman might learn
to know each other better and got In
closer touch."

Harvest Commission Investigating
Co-operative Credit Institutions.
Tho American commission on agri
cultural co-operation, which recently
begun nn Investigation of tho co-opera-live
banking societies of Europe, made
their initial Inquiries In Florence, Ita
ly, nnd they had the advantageous ex
pcrleuce of first visiting a part of Eu
rope whore co-operatlvo banks bad not
mude much headway.
Agricultural co-operation is practiced
in only one form in tho country about
Florence societies for tho purchase of
agricultural machinery, fertilizer, seeds,
etc. This is chiefly due to tho fact that
In tho early days the merchants of
Florence were tho landowners, and
their estates wore fanned on n share
basis by the peasants. If crops were
bad tho landlord furnished food for the
peasant farmer until tho next liarvcst.
This system of land tenure still pre
vails, and study of tho systems near
Florence has shown tho commission
that co-operative credit institutions are
only possible wlioro tho need is groat.
Comparison of Conditions.
Comparing Italian conditions with
American, one of tho Florentine ex
ports who uppcared before tho com
mission suggested that In the United
States tho solution of the problem of
farm finance might bo found in an en
largement of the operations of exist
ing banks. Mgnor Martelll, president
of tho Savings Bank of Florence, de
scribed n practice common with banks
about Florence whereby the farmer
gives a mortgage tot a bank and re
ceives In roturn an open account for a
certain amount of credit Tims a
farmer who considers that ho needs u
credit of $10,000 to operate his farm
gives a mortgago for that amount to
tho bank. As ho needs tho money be
draws on the bank. Ho pays interest
only on tho amount which ho bor
rows. For tho long time loans of Uk farm
ers the savings banks aro allowed to
invest up to SO per cent of their depos
its in farm mortgages. Those mort
caoos aro of two classes for rjerloda
up to ton years and for periods of from j
ten to thirty years. Tho snorter term
mortgage loans aro repaid by the bor
rowers In ono ramp som, as In the
United States, but tho longer term
loans aro repaid by amortization that
is, small annual payments mado upon
tho principal of tho loan. Tho banks
aro permitted to charge borrowers
only one-half per cent nioco than they
aro required to pay depositors. At tho
present time tho prevalent rate Is 5
per cent, though generally It Is 4 per
cent Money Is loaned onty up to CO
per cent of the appraised value of tho
land.
A Mortgage Dank.
There is also a mortgngo bank in
Florence, the Monte dl Pnacht found
ed by ono of tho early dnkes of Flor
ence. This bank Issues mortgage deb
entures at 3, 414 and 5 per cent
Most of tho debentures now outstand
ing nro at 5 por cent They sell a tri
fle under par, which Is tho nsual con
dition In Italy, and their market prlco
compares fnvorably with government
bonds.
Tho co-oporatlvo societies for pur
chase among tho landowners have
been successful. The farmers them
selves do not belong to these societies,
but tho landowners do nil purchasing
of farm machinery nnd fertilizer.
These societies are also nctlvo in edu
cational work nnd maintain agricul
tural experts, who travel about from

ers In scientific agricultural methods.

WHEN the need of the
typewriter came to
the business world, the
Remington came. Others fol
lowed. Remington was the first
typewriter it is still the first
typewriter.
First in the field, the Remington
organization began building experi
ence, step by step, from the actual
practice of typewriter users always
a step or two in advance of the users"
need. Other makes followed.
Today the Remington Typewriter
stands unique as the greatest revolu
tionizer, the greatest encrgizer the
commercial world has ever seen. And
by no means least of its beneficiaries
are all other makes of typewriters
for the Remington created the type
writer industry and blazed the way
for the others to follow.
12,500,000 Remington
written letters mailed in the
United States alone every
business day in the year.
That tells the story of Remington
pre-eminence, of the confidence of
captains of commerce in it, of the
faith of tens of thousands of efficient
employees, of the limitless selection
in choice of operators and choice of
positions the machine that has made
work for the millions, and million?
