A Big Dividend.

One effect of the national bank act
amendment relating to the amount
which may be loaned to any one per-
son or corporation is to force the
Chemical national bank of New York
to turn 50, 100000 from its surplus
fund and add it to stock capital =
making the latter round $1,000, ,00C
instead of $500, 900 where it has been
kept from tire immemOrial.
This will be done through the max.
ing of stock dividend OF 900 pei
cent. Even the bank will have a
surplus of over S., 100000 The bank
has been paying dividends of $50 pei
cent on its small capital.
What an illustration of the profits
of the modern inancier. 1t does moi

old church at Ciudad Juarez (city OF
Warez) which was built by the Fran.
clan Fathers In 1920, or nearly three
hundred years ago. A building erect
ed in this country hundred years
ago is quite an object of interest In
the United States. Juras is just
across the river from Ell Paso, Texas,
and is now entirely kept up by the
tourists who seldom visit the place
without taking back with them fine
drawn work, which never pssses

| At one time this city was called Ell
Paso del Norte, but during the time
of the Maxmillion troubles this Sec
tion of Mexico was about the only
part of the republic which we're not
in the hands of the imperial troops,
and was the seat OF government.
The name of the city was then
changed to Juarez, after the president
who bears the same relation to Mexi-
co as George Washington bears to the
United States. AT one time the city
had population OF at least fifteen
thousand, but today likely has a pop

There Is no greater held on the
Western Continent for the archaeolo-
gist, explorer and tourist than many
places in Old Mexico. While the an
cient ruins are not so extensive in
the northern part of the republic as
farther south, yet there is much evil
dence of a civilization, which prob
ably was contemporaneous with that
OF ancient Egypt, and in many re-
spects similar. The writer can only
briefly refer to these objects OF inter

BEET GROWERS MEETING.
Northern Association Agrees On Beet
Contract.

Fort Collins, Colo. The annual
meeting of the Northern Colorado Beet
Growers Association, held here Thurs
day, was largely attended, 275 men,
bers being present. The meeting was
entirely harmonious throughout, there
being no vital disagreement or differ
ences among the members. One hum
dred and sixty-six names were added
to the membership roll. The old off,
GERS, E. s. Bustead, president, and p.
Ricketts,, secretary and treasurer,
were reelected.
The meeting passed upon and
adopted form Of contract drawn up
by a committee, the principal feature
of which relates to the price for beets
delivered in 1907, which was fixed at
IS ton fat. Nothing is said in the
contract regarding the matter of silo.
ing beets, although the meeting subse,
quently adopted resolution declaring
that the growers could not afford to
silo for SO cents ton. The contract
approved is practically the same as
that executed by the beet growers in
1903, with the exception that the price
is fixed at IS ton instead of $3.50.
Manager Booraem and Field Super
intendent Wright were present and
took part in the discussion, which was
conducted in a friendly spirit and with
the best of feeling. General Manager
C. S. Morey of Denver was invited to
meet with the association at his con-
venience.
