A Strong Savings Institu-
fiOn.

The strength of a Savings
Bank depends not alone on
the size of its deposits nor the
number of it's depositors. 1t
depends rather upon the kind
of securities in which the man
agement invest their funds
and the care with which these
securities are looked after.
The Dandy Mirror evidently
thinks these conditions are
well met in the Hyde Park
Savings Bank. It says:
Beginning July 1st, the Lamoille County
Savings Bank and Trust Co. of, Hyde Park,
Vt, win pay four per cent interest on depos-
| its rem aiming in its care for year or more
This is a particularly strong rawlings institu-
ton, ana during its existence has invested
the money of its depositors wholly.i ia the
state and has never lost dollar. Hon. Car
roll 5. Page, one of the most able business
men in Vermont, and the states honored ex-
Governor, is president of the bank-the k1nt
| of president who krows a. all times nov
| the aft airs of the bank are Leing conducted
and is ever active IN promoting its interest:
and protecting its depositors ag ainst possible
loss.

RRADSTEEE.T'S REPORT.

| New York, February 21--Bradst."et's S
February % will say:
Actual trade and Industrial devclC y
| ments are quite generally favorable,
| better weather conditions and the cas-
Ing IF the railro1t' blockndes being
largely instrumental in this direction.
Jobbing trade in the spring and sum-
| mer fabrics has expanded at the east
at leading southwestern centers anu at
prominent southern markets. Better
reports also come from the northwest,
where the railroads are winning out Of
the snow blockades and on the north
Pacific coast, where the car CONGESTION
is less acute and preparations for
spring trade are noted There is also
better advices from the South Atlantic
states, which suffered a reduction Of
crop yield last fall, and southern adj
vices as whole, reflect the selling of
an enormous. If not, indeed, record cot
ton crop at recent prices.
Contractions are still irregular, bur
tend to slowness. as retail trade in
winter goods Is largely over and spring
business has hardly begun. Retail
stocks Of winter goods have been well
reduced, however.
There are, of course, some flaws in
the situation. The numerous published
announcements by leading railroads Of
the curtailment or postponement of
extensive Improvement owing to cost
of labor and materials, to the high rates
demanded on new issues of securities,
exert some influence upon sentiment
as regards future commitment in ma
terials likely to be used in railway ex-
tensions. Based upon these views, also,
there is a disposition to believe that
the crest Of the present prosperity
movement has been seen.
Trade in eastern dry goods markets
is active in all lines, but cotton goods
still display most strength and eager
demand. The only complaint is OF
backward deliveries. At first hands
printcloths have again advanced. Cot
ton yarns are very firm. Silks and
woolen dress goods are all in good de-
mand. The linen trade is reported we'll
sold up. Spring trade in millinery had
started out actively.
