concessions are in the form of trading

A Farmers Irnsti-
tuition

Mr.. Farmer, do YOU do business through the
bank If not why don't You! There was IA
time when the bank was considered beneficial
only to the capitalist. The present day sees
it o. equal benefit to all and a necessity 70:
the practical farmer. There are farmers who
have not yet learned the convenience safety
and profit that a bank account affords, but
those now using it are accepted at once as
up-to-date, thrifty and business like. Not
alone as Il safe and convenient place to
leave his money, but as an ever really re-
sort in case of necessity of financial as
siStance does the average farmer view his
bank. This bank is especially interested
in the affairs of the farmer and it ever
looks 70 their conveniences and necessities.

"What is a Princeton university
man worth when he graduates?" asked
John Hibben, president of that insti-
tuition of learning, in a lecture at
Auburn, N. Y, and then proceeded to
answer his own question in the follow
ing words: "He could not command
more than six dollars a week, and the
reason is because he has not been
trained for business, law or medicine.
Instead, in him has been created a
high potential of mental possibility
rather than attainment. If Prince
ton university does not better prepare
its graduates to earn a living than
this its curriculum is sadly in need of

Jas. A. Farrell, president of the
United States Steel corporation, in
his testimony before the house inves-
tigating committee at Washington ad-
mitted that the steel rails used today
are too light and too brittle for the
traffic. ''They are too near the
danger mark.'' said he, and gave
economics as the reason for the use
of the frail rails. This in itself is
sufficient to call down public con-
demnatiOn upon the heads of the rail-
