CORN Is KING.

At the beginning Of the present
century. not quite ten years ago. the
annual corn crop Of Il @ world was
estimated Mt about three billion BUSH
els, this country being credited with
an average Of two billion bushels.
But several times since hat we have
run far ahead Of these figures. large
as they arc, During the year recent
~ closed there were produced 2.643,-
600, 600 bushels. Even that yield has
been slightly exceeded by two pre-
vlous crops during the last three or
four years, but It's value, $1,615.000,-
600, Is the high-water mark, leading
the average for the last five years
other crop, says the Boston Transcript
in this country or in any other coun-
try in the world that Is worth so
much. 1t nearly equals the combined
value Of our cotton. hay and wheat.
Not only the grain itself is the cor
ncr stone Of our prosperity, but adj
vance Is being made in the develop
Of valuable b%y-products and In
time even a good share Of our printing
paper may be made from corn fiber.
There Is little danger that the Rus
sian farmer, no matter how expert
training he may receive. will ever
be able 10 strike the pace of the

NATIONAL BANK FOR
LAPORTE.
Comptroller of Currency Has Authorized Organization
Financed by Business Men Who Will Inspire
Confidence and Assure SoGdty to the
Long Needed Institution.

The United States Treasury De-
partment through Lawrence o Muir
ray, Comptroller of Currency, has
authorized the organization OF the
''First National Bank of Laporte."
In addition to local interests and the
center and southern sections of the
county, a number of gentlemen re-
siding at or near Philadelphia who
are connected with the development
of Lake Mokoma properties are IN
terested in the movement.
The Bank will be located on the
corner of Main and Muncy streets
opposite the Laporte Hotel, on lot
recently purchased for that purpose.
The authorized capital of the
bank will be $4,000. a portion of
the amount will be subscribed from
the county and ii portion supplied
by parties interested in Lake Moko-
ma projects
Two months is given for the rails
ing of the necessary stock after
which the subscribers of the stock
will elect a board of directors and
the directors in turn will elect otfic-
ers of the bank who will formulate
plans for the new bank building and
work Immediately started for the
erection.
There has been in the past much
talk of bank being needed at the
County Seat, but the proper spirit
had never before been manifested To

secure the promotion of such an en-
terprise, until the present time.
The promoters of the Lake Makoma
Company seeing the need of such an
institution in Laporte and surround
ing country have come to the front
with proper assistance and men equip
ped with experience to properly con-
duet the business and give assurance
to the public of a safe depository
for their accumulated wealth.
Sullivan county ranks right up
among the most progressive count
les of the State in the way of ad-
vancemt MT, both in agriculture and
mineral development. 1t has had
only the one bank at Dushore which
has handled only portion of the
banking business of the county.
The banks of Towanda, Hughesville,
Williamsport and Canton have shar-
ed literally in deposits and loan ac-
commodation from Sullivan County
people.
Located as the County Seat Is,
right in the center of the county,
with its excellent mail facilities,
there remains no question for argu-
ment but that the Laporte Bank will
receive liberal patronage. The News
Item predicts for this bank steady
and healthy growth until it becomes
one of the very best banks of this
section.
