adjacent territory, Cairos banks have
kept steadily ahead of the times and
neither the old inhabitant or new
conner need lack the most excellent
commercial banking facilities upon
the production of proper credentials
and security. The growth of the fl
financial strength of Cairo's four banks
can be clearly seen from an examind-
|tion of the statements shown above.
Every bank has shown steady and
|strong growth, and some of the older
ones have reached most substantial
All are directed by conservative,
able men, who have the utmost con
fdence of the people.
Though conservative and cautious
in management, the banks are pro-
gressive. A healthy rivalry exists.
Eyes are open to every opportunity
and whenever safe proposition pre-
SCENTS itself, one or more Of the pro-
gressiye bankers are there to meet
1t. All of the liberality consistent
with good banking methods is shown.
There are two National Banks, one
Bank and Trust Company and one
Savings Bank here.
Cairo is the natural financial and
clearance center of the various com
munities situated within radius of
one hundred miles, and with the i'm
mense development Of the great ma
ural resources of this section, a mar
veous gain will be shown by Cairos
banks within the next few years.

Cairo's Wholesale Trade
Cairo has become a distributing
point OF great consequence. The com.
bination of its rail and water trans
portation facilities and consequent
low freight rates are the elements
contributing greatly towards this graf
flying condition. In addition to sup.
plying the wants of the populous
communities within a radius of one
hundred miles OF this city, the job
hers have been constantly branching
out for the past five years, until now
they are enabled to sell their pro.
duets for a radius of over two hun
bred miles and go into the States Of
Illinois Missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas
and Tennessee. The jobbing trade of
Cairo covers the handling of a most
varied line of products, and is made
up of over one hundred firms. The
flour and grain firms located here
have developed an immense trade
that extends TO all parts of the United
States, West Indies and Central Amer
