Merchants Bank.
The Merchants State bank of
Drake was organized in 1905, and
through the careful management of
its officers. has the confidence of the
people and their deposits. The eau
ital OF this bank is $40, 900; surplus,
$4,000; deposits, $202, 900. The Of
ficers and directors are as follows:
H. Thorson, president; O. A. Refing,
cashier; j.. N. SThompson, vice presl-
dent. These me- are, men Of many
years experience in banking and
their word IS their honor.
Another of the best institutions of
its kind in the county is the Farm
ers' State bank Organized in 1903
as a First State, and in 1909 as a
First National and in 1910 changed
to the Farmers State bank. The
three years under this manageme,
has made quite a difference in this
bank. The capital stock is SIS. 900;
surplus and undivided profits, $12,-
1000; Seposits, $4,000. We are not
bankinA people yet, but we have a
right toNSthink the way we want to,
and Willtsay here that we think the
methods used BY the banks Of Drake
are the right kind and can only see
a big future Tor these institutions.
