Young-Appearing from Plain Living

There is no animal which can
adapt itself to the same wide range
Of climate or same great variety of
food as can man. He thrives equally

NEW NATIONAL BANK
Practically Assured for this City IL
the Near Future.

During this week movement has been
on foot 70 organize new national bank
in Rocky Ford. The negotiations have
not been so far perfected as to enable US
70 announce the bank as . fixed fact.
but the current rumors are to that effect.
The proposition comes from capitalists in
the middle west who have demonstrated
their financial ability by the establishment
Of string Of successful banks during the
past dozen years. The proposed capital
is not large. only $4,000. but this is q
measure Of economy as the taxes on
national banks Is = considerable item in
the current expenses. Furthermore. it is
very easy to enlarge the capital stock.
but quite difficult to induce the govern
ment to consent to reduction. And the
capitalization will cut no figure in the
size Of the loans which may be granted
as the large banks which will be back OF
the Rocky Ford bank will be able to take
all good paper Of a size beyond the legal
capacity Of tho home bank. This new
bank. IL organized. will make speciality
Of handling sheep and cattle feeding loans
in any amount-a most desirable feature.
The names proposed for directors as
per street rumor. are c. J. Cover. F. Y.
Hsuok, G. w. Lewis and w. J. Brown.
Another rumor is that the new bank or
ganization has an option on the Farmers
and Merchants Bark. Another rumor is
that theState bank rooms may be souRh,
as location. Concerning all of which
we will doubtless be able to give positive
information next week.
