week with the complaints of South
Howard street residents of water over
flow alleged to be from Garnet mesa
ditch. At meeting of complainants it
was decided to appoint committees

BANKERS OFFER PRIZES
FOR CORN GROWING CLUBS.
Georgetown Men Will Dispense With
Calendar Advertising to Carry
Out Plan.

Calendar advertising will be dlspens
ed with by the bankers Of Georgetown
this year, says the Louisville Herald
and the money usually spent along thai
line will be given by the bankers In
prizes to the Boys Corn Growing club
Of Scott county. Commissioner OF Agri
riculture Newman recently received 0
communication from the bankers VI
Georgetown stating that such action
had been decided upon at a meeting OF
the bankers. As II result OF tins action
about 500 from that source will be
given In prizes.
This seems 10 be Il sane and sensible
thing to do Calendar advertising
brings inadequate returns for the mon
ey invested, The banks OF this state
are spending $4,000 or $4,000 annual
ly for calendars, and except In rare
cases this Is q dead" expense. 1t was
all right years ago when banks first
began to use this medium of advertis
ing, but now practically every bust
ness house In every town passes out
calendars to It's customers. The mer
chant, the miller, the butcher, tn,
blacksmith aud Others make bid fol
trade In this way. AS a result tn,
banks customers have more calendar
than they know what to do with anC
for that reason none OF them are prop
erly appreciated. We venture the as
sertlon that the lead of the George
town bankers will be followed by tn
bankers all over the state.
