NOVEL BANK ADVERTISING
How to Improve Conditions Instead
of Giving Financial Notes.

Out in the western part of Oklaho-
homa a bank changes its advertise
ment in the weekly home paper each
time that the paper rolls from the
press.
In bank advertisements 1t has been
considered rather dignified to have a
standing card, emitting much of the
reading matter which is pertinent to a
retail store or to the introduction Of
a new brand of breakfast food, or that
other necessity. a popular brand Of
smoking tobacco.
But the bank referred to knows
mighty little about a standing display
ad. The officers of that bank have
messages for their customers, and
they deliver the messages through the
columns of the local newspapers.
One week the bank offered some
timely suggestions about the impor-
lance of raising feed crops to enable
farmers to fatten live stock. In an
other issue the bank officials urged
the farmers to increase their f1ocks OF
poultry, so that fine revenue would
| be derived.
The following week the advertising
space which the bank paid for con
tanned much valuable information
about selecting pure seed. Another
advertisement pertained to the pur
chase and installation of solos.
Not once have the bank advertise
ments referred to money matters;
that's the strange Part of the publicity
methods which the bank has adopted
The reason is apparent. The officers
| Of that western Oklahoma bank are de
termined that farmers shall prosper
When such a condition is universal
the bank management is aware of the
fact that all of the industries of the
community will be prosperous.
Other banks in the state are follow
ing similar lines and, while it is no
to be expected that banks shall aban
don their customary methods of an
nouncing various matters connected
with finance, the advancement which
communities are making by the CO
operation of farmers and bankers Il
quite certain to attract the attention
of other bankers, to the end that botl
professions will obtain lasting bene
fits.

When De Soto decided to discover
the Mississippi and thus pave the way
for the pork barrel, he surrounded

navigated by anything but the open

flag upon it's turbulent bosom.
At the same time that he discovered
the Mississippi, De Soto made the &C
