fertility to better advantage than
truck growing.
There is another side line that
fits in well with truck growing and
adds to its profits. This is home
canning. A small home canning out
fit can be made very profitable in
saving many fruits, berries and veg
etables that would go to waste. If
there is a glut in the tomato market
and they are bringing only 20 cents
a bushel, stop selling; can the sur
plus, put them away for winter and
get $500 per bushel. If your snap
beans do not pay to take to market,
put them in cans and get a good price.
Do the same with sweet potatoes,
pumpkins, Hubbard squash, pears,
peaches, grapes and apples The
process is simple, the work is easy,
and the profit is sure.
Il thank you for your attention"

CHAMPION IN FIT OF ANGER
Says Corbett Is Liar and Willing to
Demonstrate He Is No Fakir.

Chicago, Jan. 10.-Jack Johnson
was an angry champion to-day when
he read the reply of James J. Corbett
to his accusation that the former ring
idol tried to bride him to fake Jack
was so perturbed that had Corbett
been around there probably would
have been a lively miX-up involving
an old and a newer idol of the ring
"Corbett says / faxed with Kauf-
man and Ketchel, does he?" shouted
Jack, when he reached O'Connells
gymnasium in the afternoon. well,
tell him he's the liar, not l. If that
fellow were here now I'd give him a
punching. He knows l told the truth
and that | could beat him the best
day he ever lived.
$50 Corbett plans to start libel
suit when he gets here in ten days?
| just wish he would. I'll prove every
thing in the affidavit | made and will
be only too glad of the chance. If
Corbett wants to settle 1t any other
way, let him come up to O'Connell's
when he gets here and we can prove
in the ring which one is the fakir and
which the boxer. I'll box him for
nothing, with or without spectators. "
The champion scaled in public to-
day in boxing toys for the first time
since the Johnson-Jeffries fight eight
cen months ago. With about three
pounds of stage trunks and shoes on,
he tipped the beam at an even 229
pounds. This made it certain that he
scaled within a few ounces either
way of 226 pounds, which he claims
is much lighter than when he started
to train for the battle at Reno.

and gave the advice. But when this
institution, like thousands of other
institutions controlled by white men,
failed the Negroes had to bear the
blame.
A branch of this great insti-
tuition was, so / am informed, located
in Nashville and this destroyed the
confidence of all the older people
who had financial dealings with the
same. Hence, the One-Cent Savings
Bank came upon the scene not for
the purpose of investing and accumu-
lating money for the stockholders,
neither for the purpose of paying sa-
laries to the officers, but for the pur-
pose, first, of restoring confidence in
the already Industrious colored citl-
zens and training our younger men in
financial dealings. In my humble
judgment the institution has per-
formed it's duty and filled its mission
well, We have not massed together
large sums of money. we nave not
made great speculations. neither
have we paid officers large salaries,
but in a humble and careful way We
have collected together month by
month the pennies, nickles and
dimes of the Industrious colored citi-
zens and have used them honestly,
cautiously, carefully, and l believe
proftably, as our monthly statements
will show.
For the year 1911, according
to the report of the assistant
cashier, which he placed upon the
presidents desk on the 30th day OF
each month during the year, this in
stitution has handled $777,532.07, as

amount the stockholders have
placed in the hands of the directors
as paid up capital $5,O9O.0O. With
this $5,090.00 the directors and Of
fcers have so managed the affairs
of the bank that they have paid each
stakeholder a cash dividend of 6 per
cent. each year since the bank has
thrown its doors open, have bought
and paid for all the bank fixtures
at their disposal, have paid all en-
ployes, all rents, all taxes and other
incidental expenses, paid printing
bills, bought stationery and postage
and accumulated a cash surplus OF
$4,794.39. You will, therefore, see by
these figures, if our banking and Of
fee fixtures are worth anything, each
stakeholder who bought and paid
for one share of stock at SIS in 1904
will have, with this years dividend,
received $40 on his $500 in cash
and still has value of more than two
dollars for every one dollar he or she
paid into the bank. This / call care
full financiering and judicial manage
ment.
THE CONDITION OF THE BANK.
| have no hesitation in saying that
the condition of your bank and
stock is such today that If every de-
positor would on tomorrow morning
call for every dollar of their deposit
it could and would be readily
handed out over he counter by the
cashier. Then if every stakeholder
should demand his or her capital
stock paid back, dollar for dollar,
with per cent. per annum, which Is
the legal rate of interest, this could
be handed over and still the bank
would have it's office fixtures and pa
raphernalia, the eight years expert
ence of it's officers to do business and
S4,79499 on which to begin business
the next day, which would be three
thousand dollars in cash more than
the bank had on the 10th day OF
January, 1904, when it first threw
open its doors. This being the case,
feel an assurance and confidence in
saying to you that banking is no
longer an experiment with the One
Cent Savings Bank, but it is a reali-
ty, and l cannot see how any sane
man or woman can hesitate mo-
ment in investing their money with
this institution, and / believe each
stockholder will be doing his or her
real duty when they advise their
friends to invest their money in this
Institution and every stakeholder
would be thoroughly justified in
doubling their holdings from today.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
| beg to recommend to the stock
holders that they should this year
elect a live, wide awake set Of bust
ness men as directors and that these
directors should in like manner elect
wise, judicial, intelligent set of Of
fcers to push the work Of the bank
for the year 1912.
We lament the loss of our useful
co-laborer, Mr.. Lewis Winter, and
report to you that while it was in
the province of the Board OF Direc
tors to fill his place, we have seer
fit to leave It untitled until this meet
ing. In electing the directors, how
ever, would earnestly recommend
that we stand by the first rule
adopted in our bylaws at the begin
ming Of this institution, namely, tha
no person should be elected as direc
tor or officer who did not hold OF
represent as much as twenty shares
of paid up capital stock.

an attack to be made on him or any
other man in its news or advertising
