FINE STATEMENTS
Banks Of City Show Healthfsl
Growth

Greeley's four banks have COM
bined deposits Of q, 731, ,0oe.ss, &C.
cording to statements printed In this
issue Of the Tribune. These state
ments show = very gratifying condi-
tion in money matters, and evidence
of very substantial growth and
strength in our financial institu-
tions. The Fisrt National state
ment for the first time shows re-
sources of over = cool million, and
Cashier Petrikin is naturally quite
proud of tho further fact that his
bank has larger combined capital
and surplus than any other bank In
Northern Colorado.
The Greeley National statements
show substantial gain, with three
quarters of million In assets. This
bank under the new management IS
making a strong bid for increased
business.
The Union National, the youngest
of Greeley's national banks, shows q
healthy growth, in keeping with the
growth of city and county.
The ''little'' Weld County Saw
ings Bank isn't little any more, not
by quite bit. Under Charlie jack
sons efficient care it has grown to
5000, 900 affair, and is proving more
and more a popular place to deposit
savings for profit, because of its
safety and known conservative meth
DDS of doing business.
Greeley may we'll be proud of the
showing made by her four banks.

Safe, Sure snd Speedy.

No external remedy ever yet devised
has SO fully and unquestionably met
these three prime conditions as success
fully as Allcock's Plasters. They are safe
because they contain no deleterious
drugs and are manufactured upon scien'
titic principles of medicine. They are
sure because nothing goes into them e1-
cept ingredients which are exactly adapt
ed to the purposes for which plaster is
required. They are speedy in their ac
tion because their medicinal qualities go
right to their work of relieving pain and
restoring the natural and he althy per-
formance Of the functions Of muscles,
nerves and skin.
Allcock's Plasters are the original and
genuine porous plasters and like most
meritorious articles have been extensive
ly initiated, therefore always make sure
and get the genuine Allcock's.

The Water Works.

The pipe line for the new city
waterworks has been laid to short
distance this side of Windsor, and
there it is stuck for lack Of lumber
for pipe. Work on the distributing
reservoir on the hill southwest Of the
city Is going on, some Of the cement
work already being done. and the
men doing such work as the weather
will permit. The entire system
could be completed in sixty days If
the lumber could be secured. The
whole trouble seems to be with the
railroads in the northwest, from
which section the lumber is to come.
