BANK FOR EVERY zoo PEOPLE.
Radcliffe. Iowa. with a Population of
500 Souls, Claims Record as
Financial Center.

"A banking institution for every 200
people" is new record made by The
village OF Radcliffe, Ia, which probably
holds the record of having more banks
in proportion to its population than any
other town in the United States. This
town is in the midst of thrifty German
settlement, and, as tbs class of people is
noted for saving its money and making
safe investments, there has been per-
haps more demand for banks than there
would be in most localities.
The town has a population of about
800, and four banks are floIrishing and
doing a nice business with the people
of Radcliffe and surrounding country.
OF course, there is a rivalry between
the banks that makes business brisk,
and the bidding up on interest rates
paid on time deposits makes it a good
thing for the depositors, who are draw
ing as high as six per cent at some of
the banks.
The bank buildings and the furniture
and fixtures of these institutions are
equal to those in many larger towns.
