The induatiiea that your town' can
Induce to locate here with the least
difficulty are .lioso whUjh. for any
reason are not 'able In their present
location to obtain sufficient capital
vrlta which to continue or expand
their operation!?.
There Ib no other BUbJeot except
possible farming to which commercial
organlzations'throughout the country
are giving ao much attention to-day
an. that of llnancIiiB industries. And
tliere la no other phase of the work of
getting new industries fpr a town
that requirea bo jnuch careful nlnu-
tlon od the part of the town develop-
ment organizations
It 16 not ncfuHsarlly a fclgn pf bad
buslUeaa methods or an unprofitable
luduatry that n manufacturing con
cern ahould bo In need or nmdR. Some
qf the Inrgest industries In Ainorlm to-
day began with practically no capital
and had to struggle along for years
before they found .thomaulveH firmly
on their financial feet. Your iMiulnesB
wot a small business once no matter
bow big it la to-day.
After your Couiaorcfnl flub or
Hoard of Trade linn aattafled Iinelf that
the industry which la wilting to move
to your town. If It can bo financed
Ih it desirables one and that it can make
good and prow and help the town by
growing there are a number of plans
now In common uae for the communi-
ty financing of a new factory.
Perhaps the-commonest or these la
to increase the capital stock of the
now Industry and obtain Btib3fcrlp-
tJons tor Hie added capital from the
ImcHtorri in the town to which it Is
going. This plan is In operation in
very many communities but hH the
disadvantage of requiring the invent
went of n large amount of cash which
Would otherwise bo used In the Imx
nrovcnieiit of existing Industries. Very
often- too the ownera 'of n desirable
Industry are not willing to part with
a large number Of Interest to lose
their personal control and uhould not
be expected to do so.
In the Inst few years therefore aev.
oral new plans for lluanciug indus-
tries all bused upon the proposition
of IendttiK crcdlL instead of advancing
cash have boon tried out and in many
cases have Worked successfully. One
of the latest developments of this plan
Is In IJoBfon where the DoBton Cham
any losses the company may auHtntiu
The endorsement ot this company
carrying with it the guarantee of the
leading business man of lloston mukes
any business concern's credit good at
any bank. AVUen an industry applies
to the lloston Chamber of Commerce
for capital with which to enlarge or
increase its efficiency Investigation
is first made by a committee of the
Chamber ot Commerce and if its re-
ports Ib favorable the directors of the
development company makes a Becond
investigation. If their report la fa-
vorable the manufacturer's notes are
endorsed so that he can borrow from
his own bank tho amount that be requires-
A Binnll chargo Is made for
this service to cover tfio exponso of
tin operation of tho development
company.
Davenport Iowa waB quo of tho
rirat cities to adopt a guarantee plan
of this general nature and tho indus-
trial dcivelonment of thnt city elnco It
haa been in n position to give finan
cial aid to new industries lias ncen
one of the most remarkable Instances
of community growth In recent hlsto.
ry Under the Davenport plan there
have been few losses and thoso trivial
compared with the benefits Which tho
whole town and every business man
hi It hits reaped from the advent of the
new factories.
U used to be popular way of inducing
an Industry to move from one town to
another to offer a cash bonus often
a free tract of land and frequently ex
emption from taxation for a period or
own members an iudUBtrinl .develop-
ment company which ImB no capital
but huB $500000 of guaranteed credit
that la each subscriber bqlng a mer-
chant or manufacturer whose .credit is
good at any bank agrees to make good

I'reHton uuperlutijideut of the Htatc

tUiit there Ib one mentally defective
person to every ftOU In this State and
that insanity as well as criminality
Ik the result of unatuble nervous or-
ganization due In a large measure to
heredity. He Bay that ti large inn-
Jorlty ot patients come from rural
districts nnd the laboring classes
which lime little rest from toll and
where rest or diversion are not en-
Joyed lor lack of opportunity and
time.
The records of Dr. Prcatuu show
that no patients under 15 -nrB are
umuug those admitted to Ida Institu-
tion. From l!i to !io yeare ID pa-
tients were received; rrotn 20 to 20
yeara 4S; 25 to 3.1 yeura S8 Wom-
en have confessed to Dr. PreBton
that the first rest they have ever had
haa coiuo after they reached the asy-
lum. A campaign against tuberculosis bus
been waged aqd even nt the nsVlum
where cottages have been built for
tubercular patients mortality bus
been reduced 40 per cent. Dr. Pres-
ton says that the social campaign for
the rural aud working classes l equ
ally as Important as the tubercular
campaign. It might prevent the re
turn of many women who are cured
at tho asylum but who returning to
old conditions again break down.
!.' 7 Patients Cndcr Treatment.
On Augimt 31 1912 there were 1557
Incami patients in the asylum or
which 811 were males and 74C females.
This is nn increase of 48 over tho
number ot patients at the beginning
of the year. During the fiscal year
ending August 31 last 212 males and
90 females a total of 302 were nd-
iqltted; 34 males and 24 females a
total of 58 Wire returned from fur-
lough; 1001 males and 858 femaleB
a total of 1.809 wero treated; aver-
age dully population 1530.5; 89 males
and 49 females n total of 138 were
dlschurged from furlough; 15 innlea
nnd 0 females a total of 21 resident
patients were discharged; C2 males
and 35 females n total of 9i died;
111 malea nnd TJ females n total of
174 were carried on furlough
Slnco the Institution was establish
ed 4780 males nnd 3339 females a
total of S.l'-D patients have been ad-
mitted; 2010 males and 1052 females
n total of 4267 havo been discharged;
1240 males and 831 females ft total
of 2.080 have died.
The death rate Is below the aver-
aKe for lnsano ana tun report Bays
that It Is lower thau might have been
expected In view of tho numbor ot ag
ed and Infirm remaining In the Insti-
tution nnd admlttod during Mm year.
On account of tho uxtremo condi-
tions as nmny patients au possible
havo been kept on furlough. This is
done to make room for ucuto cases
which are said to accumulate fuBt In
tho county Jutls. Thu wludom of this
policy Is scouted by Dr. Preston for
no says tunt uuuor tins uystem too in
sane reoume their family rotations
and are apt while au furlough to
transmit their unstable organizations
to future generations multiplying
their kind especially lu cases of lior-
oditary taint. Not until more room
Is given for tho lnsano asylums he
auyu can this policy of giving fur-
loughs be changed. tiuggoBtlon is
made by Dr. Preston that u campaign
be inaugurated to urgo upon thu poo-'
plo or tho Htato that tbuy cotiBorvo
