effect on conditions in this state.
The report of State Examiner J.. L.

deposits In the state banks amounting
to 334, O65, 62O.57. This shows a falling
off of a little more than $4,000 from

time the report shows an increase OF
1908, 356.29 over the state bank depos-
it's of a year ago. The national banks
show individual deposits for the same
date of $40, 1913, 769.O9. This shows an
increase in the deposits in this class
Of banks Of $692, S40.25. which makes
