ADVERTISING OF THE BANK
Wall Street Publication Tells Of
Points Which Should Be Brought
Out in Display.

Until recently bankers looked upon
advertising as publicly inspired by
desire to favor the newspapers with
some patronage. a conclusion that it
pays to advertise being seldom taken
into consideration.
1t was not until lately that this
idea was replaced with the fore-gone
fact that bank advertising, when it is
done intelIigently, is very profitable:
and what has accomplished more
than anything else to force this
change in opinion was the increase
in deposits of the banks that 2Iver-
tised
The advertising banks in one state
alone, during a period of five years.
gained q per cent in assets and 90
per cent. in deposits, while those
banks that did not avail themselves
Of advertising lost five per cent. in
assets and seven per cent. in depos-
L
In commenting upon this subject
the Wall Street Journal draws atten-
tion to a very good point banks
ought to bring out in thier advertising
1t says that in the last 40 years
there have been only 43S national
banks that have failed, although
within the same time there have beer
five or six panics. This liabilities OF
these banks amounted to little
more than $1O5,0OO,OOO, and 7S pei
cent. of this sum was paid directl!
out of the assets Of the failed banks
The Wall Street Journal says tha
three-eights Of one per cent. on cir
culation would have redeemed all tn
outstanding circulation of failed
banks.
This proof of safety in banking,
advertised constantly, will increas
the deposits and assets of bank b.
the accretion of new funds, within
very short period of time.

Senator Bardwell who represents this
district in the state senate, has stirred
up some Of the animals in Denver by
the introduction Of joint resolution
providing for an investigation of the
failure of some banking institutions and
the manner in which the same have
been handled. The resolution has pass
ed both senate and house and the COM
mittee appointed will soon be at work
on the investigation. With Senator
Bardwell at the head of the committee
of investigation there is good reason to
believe that the investigation will be
thorough and will result in making
known to the public the facts as they

Is well attended as they should have

,rtheless. The farmers who failed to
lttend never will have much idea of
what they missed by not being present
unless they are brought to knowledge
of it by their attendance upon the ex-

lips county farmer can afford to miss
attending the institute. Successful
farming in eastern Colorado cannot be
conducted on the methods of Iowa or
illinois. Every farmer who comes from
east of the Missouri river has consider
able to learn before he is master of the
most successful methods of farming in
this part of the country and even the
carly settlers and most successful of
our farmers has still much to learn that
will bring him beneficial results. Sue
cessful farming cannot be done in Phil
lips county without head work and
there is nothing like good live farm
ers' institute to cause men to think and
to think along new lines of thought. In
these institutes the farmers exchange
IDEAS as to the best methods of farming
andsthere are also present speakers
who have made scientific tests of diff
ferent farming methods and speak from
their experience. 1t pays to attend
these meetings of farmers and you will

Pointers: Once good hearted but
illiterate old fellow wrote for the
town paper. Only someone familiar
with the man and circumstances could
have made any sense out of it, but
this editor, with infinite patience,
would work over the articles and try
to make them at least halfway pre-
sentable. Sometimes he would read
a sentence, in which he had made a
dozen corrections, to the old fellow to
see If he would notice the improve
ment, but he always got the same ans
wer: That's all right, that's the way
I wrote it." But when he would bring
in the next article he would complain
of the previous one being changed.
Finally the editor got mad and set
the next article himself so as to be
sure there were no changes. 1t fur
nished the readers amusement for a
week and was the concluding article
of the series.
Sabetha Herald: The inclination
seems to be to plant more wheat. The
recent remarkable wheat crops prove
that a farmer can make money while
he sleeps if he will put his winter
wheat in early enough. The Wetmore
Spectator says the following of a Ne
maha county farmer: A. L. Smarr
called at the Spectator office the 9TH
er day. and among other things told
us that he raised 40 acres of wheat
this year that went 33 bushels and
one peck to the acre, for which he re-
ceived rs cents per bushel. He Is
sowing 140 acres this fall. He also
told US of an e0-acre farm in his
neighborhood that has been renting
for several years and bringing in
scarcely enough to keep up repairs
and pay the taxes. Last fall the own
ers hired him to put it in wheat, and
this year they realized something over
$1,000 from the crop. We believe the
best thing the farmers of this locality
can do is to raise more wheat. There
is too much land that will not pro-
duce more than Is or 90 bushels of
corn per acre one year with another. |
and no one can afford to farm such |
land to corn. If put to wheat it will |
yield a valuable crop and the ground !
will be benefited by the change.

trains Missouri allows no penalty to
be exacted from passengers who do
not buy tickets, while Illinois allows
a penalty.
This works an injustice to the rail-
roads in Missouri in several ways. In
the first place it overworks the con-
ductors. 1t requires much more time
for conductor to look up the fare
between two stations, make change
and make record of the transaction
than it does simply to punch ticket.
1t also requires a conductor to carry
a large amount of cash with him. Be-
sides that, it places temptation in the
way of conductors to KNOCK down"
fares, as the company has no check
on them, and dishonest conductors are
enabled to beat the company out of its
dues-and the public is directly inter-
ested in having every cent accounted
for and placed to the credit of the
two-cent fare.
Further than that, this pay-on-the-
train proposition allows dishonest
passengers to beat the railroad COM
panies also. A passenger may get on
a train at one station and the con-
ductor may not reach him for some
time, or he may be overlooked for a
considerable distance. When the con-
ductor does reach him. he pretends to
have got on at the last station passed
and pays only for the distance still to
be travelled.
Notwithstanding these difficulties in
Missouri. it Is becoming more and
more evident that the two-cent fare
is paying over in that state. 1t was an
nounced few days ago that the rail-
roads would not contest the low rate
before December 1, although the time
limit agreed upon for the test has long
since past.
According to Attorney General
Hadley the railroads cannot agree
among themselves that the two-cent
rate is bad thing for them. Mr..
Hadley says that the auditors of two
railroads agree that the lower rate
has proved profitable, while the 9TH
ers do not, but the dissenters want
more time before they attempt to
prove their statements.
