vile, president of the Yorkville Cream
cry association, was in Yorkville yes
terday on business. He expressed him

in which the farmers have taken hold
of the creamery proposition, and he is
confident that the enterprise is going
to have all the success that he has
been hoping for and more. He him.
self, however, has been delayed in be-
coming patron for the reason that he
has been unable to get W the neces-
sary buildings; but expects to be in
shape within the next few weeks and
to send to the creamery the milk from
twenty-five or more cows. Mr.. j.

Two Institutions That Count.
The Bank of Glover and the Bank Of
Hickory Grove, both splendid insttu-
tions have had fine year, and besides
paying dividends have added hand
some surpluses to their respective cap
ital stocks. People up in the Hickory
Grove neighborhood, who a few years
ago had no way of transmitting money
or postoffice order, or by buying checks
from the few who had accounts in
banks, and mighty poor
facilities for borrowing to tide over
times Of stress, say that the Hickory
Grove bank is the greatest thing that
has struck their section since the COM
ing of the railroad. The people of
Glover and the country surrounding
are unable to see how they were ever
able to get along without their splen-
did bank, and everybody about is al
most as proud of it as are the officers,
directors and stockholders.

y pleased with the record that has
been made by the bank, which, though
only sixteen months old, wound up the
year with deposits aggregating $1O7,-
700. I'VE had been pulling" said the
doctor, for 100000 by January l, and
he fact that we went a little beyond,
If course made us feel better" AL
though very proud indeed, of the
oank's record, DR.. Saye was not inclin-
ID to take much credit for himself He
