Saving
Money

We wish to call your atten-
ton to the desirability of saving.
money. John D. Rockefeller
tells us that anyone can make
money;few can safe it. 1.-THE man
who is saving money Is build
ing character; he is acquiring
power. It is the man with char
acter and money who is able to
take advantage Of Opportunity
when she knocks at his door.
It is the fixed habit of saving
something. no matter how small,
that counts. Persistent saving
creates habit of life that is
fruitful in results. It is Russell
Sage's advice to young men to
save twenty-five cetns out of
every dollar earned-and stick
to it. But if you can't save
twenty-five cents save ten or
five; save something anyway.
The best way to save is to
start q bank account. Money in
your pocket is easily spent, but
money in the bank is out of
easy reach.
Did you ever think about the
power of interest? Do you
know that 81 deposited each
month will amount to $64.72 in
five years and to $139.SO in ten
years at 3 per cent? That IS de-
posted each month will amount
to $a24.8l in five years and to
$699.5S in ten years? Think it
over, remembering meanwhile
that The SAN JUAN COUNTY
BANK is well equipped to care
for its large business; that it has
established a Banking by Mail
department, which it places at
your service, and that it receives
deposits from 81 up. 1t aims to
encourage thrift, to promote the
saving 'habit." It would be
pleased to open an account with
you and to help you save.
An attractive little booklet,
Banking by Mall" will be
mailed upon request if you
mention this paper.

A BOARD DRAG IN SECTIONS.

BOARD DRAG IN SECTIONS.
back Of the sections should be fasten-
ed together with wire or short chain,
and for the front use the same kind Of
hitch found on the section harrows.
If it is necessary to ride on the drag
to make it do better work, there should
be, in order to have the weight come

The Cost Industry OF the Future.
A statement just presented by the
department of commerce and labor
through its bureau Of statistics shows
that importations of goatskins into the
United States are now running at the
rate of $25, OOO. 900 per annum and that
a large share of these are brought
from India, China, Arabia and SOUTH
eastern Russia. The increasing popuF
larity of certain classes OF kid leather
for footwear as well as gloves has in
creased very greatly the demand for
poatskins in the United States within
recent years. In 1885 the value OF
goatskins imported was about A.OOO,-
600, by 1890 it had grown to $9.OOO,-
600. by 1898 it was $15. 600, 900, in 1900
it was $4,000, 900 and in 1903 $25,OOo.-
600 in round numbers. 1t Is stated
that the importations consist OF about
OOOO. 600 skins for 1908. Whether the
farmers Of the United States can prof
itably turn a portion of their attention
to the production of the class OF goats
from which these skins are produced
depends for it's answer, at least In
measure, upon the willingness OF town
people to eat goat meat. The profit OF
raising a goat for $1.25 skin and
nothing else does not appeal very al
luringly to the farmer who Is produc-
ing beeves worth $50 to 500 and hogs
worth s12 to sos. When goat indus
try shall become largely implanted IN
the United States it will probably De
