THE GALlATlN VALLEY, MON
TANA.

sNtVN
situated a little west Of Bozeman, Is
becoming celebrated as the home OF
the finest mailing barley grown In
the United States. Under the In
fluence Of irrigation, 1t Is not uncom.
mon to raise a crop Of fifty bushels
to the acre, and the dryness Of the
atmosphere gives 1t q better color
than that grown in localities where
the crop is dependent upon the rain
fall. The climate of Montana is ex-
ceedingly healthful, and the proximity
of the mining camps. which abound in
the west, insures profitable markets
for all products Of the farm.
The West Gallatin Irrigation com
pany, located at Manhattan. hold their
land at from $500 to $500 per acre,
including water rights. Besides q
large milling plant located at Manhat
tan, a mill for the manufacture Of
strawhoard and coarse grades of pa
per Is now under construction. There
is a large Holland settlement In thu

MUST KEEP INFORMED
NATIONAL BANK DIRECTORS TO
HAVE NEW OBLIGATIONS.
will Be Required to Put Themselves in
Touch With the Affairs of
Their Banks.

William =. Ridgely the controller of the
currency, is insisting upon a closer ac-
abundance of national bank directors with
the affairs of the banks with which they
are connected. His experience has shown
him that many banks are wrecked, or
brought dangerously near that point, by
the ignorance of the directors as to the true
condition of affairs. Heretofore it has oeen
the policy of the controller of the currency
10 forward criticisms of affairs of various
banks to the institution. and the answers
to the letters would come from The pes
iaents. cashiers or others, the directors
rarely showing that they mad any knowl-
edge of the faults found by the examiners.
This is to be changed, and wnen a bank
examiner has found something about an
institution deserving criticism he is IN
structed not only to report the facts 10 the
controller but if possible to get in touch
with the directors and confer with them.
In addition to this the controller Will write
a letter to the bank, in when he will in
close something like this: The directors
are requested to unite in making a prompt
reply to this letter over heir lndlVuual
signatures, stating that the Sama mas Deen
read by them, and that steps will be taken
by them to correct the matters herein called
to their attention.
By methods of this kind the directors of
national banking Institutions are practical
~ compelled to take cognlZance of what
is going on IN the concerns of which they
are part. The matter will not be dismissed
by the president or cashier writing a letter,
as heretofore. stating that the matters
complained of will be corrected. All Of the
directors will have to acknowledge the let
ter individually. thereby informing the con-
troller that every director of a bank knows
the details of the affair.
1t is the opinion of officials of the con-
trollers Office that many a national bank
has gone to the wall by the Indifference
of directors in keeping track with it's at
fairs In the course of time they come to
rely so completely upon the officers of the
bank that they seldom meet and ask for
few, If any details of the management.
The officers begin to make bad invest
ments. become entangled in some affair
that is dangerous and go right on with
out the directors being any wiser. Be
fore they realize what is happening the
banks business is in danger; possibly
failure Is imminent Under the plans Of
Controller Ridgely directors will be COM
PEELED to keep track of official criticism,
Mt least and in that way they may be
induced to keep a closer supervision over
the details of their concerns
Nearly all the correspondence now go
ing out of the controllers office to banks
that are subject to criticism of any kind

asking their individual attention and an
