NEW BANKING LAW

An order issued by the comp
troller of the currency requiring
national banks to adopt a resolu-
ton strictly prohibiting over
drafts and threatening them in
case of disobedience with being
placed on the "thirty-day list,
has aroused the opposition of all
the Denver banks, as we'll as
those of every community in the
country, and patrons of the insti-
tutions who have been given to
the making of overdrafts are be-
ing warned that they must ar
range their affairs so as to per-
NIT them to cease the practice.
Nothing so drastic has ever
been done by the comptroller of
the currency in many years as
this rule against overdrafts. it is
said. Those who overdraw are
generally individuals and firms
of large wealth, and the rule is
to clear them up as soon as noti-
fed. The banks now are placed
in the position of refusing to
credit checks unless they are
covered by deposits and thereby
risking the loss of a valuable Gus
toner. This will be extremely
embarrassing. for the customer
can only remove his account to
another bank which will treat
him in the same way if he trans
crosses the rule.
The penalty which the comp
trefler holds over the banks, that
OF placing them on the thirty
day list" means that banks that
do not prevent overdrafts will be
regarded as unsafe and therefore
liable to examination every month
instead of twice q year. In the
form of the resolution which the
comptroller expects to be-adopted
by the directors of the hanks.
oAicefs and employees who cash q
check not protected in full by de-
posits, must be held personally
liable for the reimbursement Of
the shortage to the bank, so that
the shortage will not be carried
over to another days business. =

ELK BALL SUCCESS

Probably the largest attended
dance this season was that given
by the Holly members B. P. o. E.
at the Armory last Friday even
ing, people coming from miles
around to attend same,
The hall had been prettily deco
rated, streamers with the emblem
of that order draping the walls,
while festoons of their colors,
purple and white. were shown in
many effects. The lights were
also prettily decorated, while a
monster Elk head, electric lights
being arranged around same,
greeted all comers.
From the time the Holly Or
chestra first waited strains of
sweet music for the dancers until
an early hour in the morning the
huge crowd enjoyed themselves
fully. and departed for their
homes voting the Elk's royal
entertainers.

TO sourHs1DERs

Several weeks ago the compe-
tent correspondent to this paper
from your section found that it
was impossible for him to any
longer serve in that capacity, and
therefore we have been unable
to publish a weekly letter from
your section.
Surely there is some other per-
son who will fill this position7
The items are of great benefit to
you as we'll as to us. They bring
your section int to prominence
each and every week, and we
believe that they have been a
great factor in the upbuilding of
the Southside.
BY all means let US have a cor
respondent from the Southside.

SPLENDID MEETINGS

The delegation from the Colo
RADIO Agricultural college made
very interesting and instructive
speeches at the Club rooms Mon
day, and it was a pity that the
=. farmers did not more generally
attended the meetings. rs infor-
nation worth many dollars to any
farmer was impaired by them to
those in attendance.
r. McCann was the first speak
er and he proved to be a man
thoroughly familiar with his SUBJ
ject. Feeding the dairy COW is
very important part of the
dairying industry, and this is
something which our people must
study if they wish to reap the
fullest success from this business.
P. K. Blinn, of Rocky Ford,
spoke upon Sudan grass and al
falfa. He predicts that Sudan
grass will prove a valuable forage
crop and states that same con-
tains large percentage of nutri-
ment not found in some other
plants. Same is easy to grow
and he believes that the seed will
be worth around ten cents per
pound next year as the grass is
being now planted extensively.
In the evening, also making an
afternoon address, DR.. George
H. Glover, was the speaker. He
make one of the best talks upon
various subjects that has ever
been made in this town, and his
address was we'll received. He
stated that If the Holly country
will enter into the dairy business
in the right manner, buying good
stock and continually improving
same, that inside of five years It
will be one of the riches sections
in the world"
Dr.. Glover also stated that hog
ct0iera WINS m evidences In many
Of the towns up the valley, and
udoubtedly same would reach
here this year. He advised TAX
ing all precautions and hog rails
ers who attended this meeting
will undoubtedly save hundreds
of dollars by following the ipfor-
nation he impaired.
While none of the meetings
were largely attended they were
nevertheless a success.

ANNUAL MUSICAL

Wednesday evening in the local
Opera House the High School
Musical department gave their
annual musical. The young
people spoke and sang to a crowd
ed house. The general program
was much better than the pro-
gram last year. Miss Woodring
has surely made great progress
in her music work and the stu
dents show the training we'll.
Miss Woodring is to be highly
complimented on the results at
tanned. With a new High School
another year the music depart
ment will be able to make even
greater progress.
The Holly High school students
are awake to all opportunities
offered and the life Of the school
is made better and richer because
of these musical programs. The
students taking part deserve
much praise for the way they
rendered the program.

A DANGEROUS CROSSING

It appears high time that some
means be taken to safeguard the
lives and property of persons who
are obliged to use our Southside
road, as regards the crossing at
the elevator near town.
At times it is hardly possible
for a driver to see whether or not
a train be nearing this crossing
when he be approaching same,
the elevator hiding the approach
from the East while invariably
a long string of box cars, or a
waiting freight train, covers the
approach from the West.
The trainmen are very careful,
and the whistle and bells at all
times sound continuously as the
train nears this place, but even
then at the rate of speed which
the trains travel it would be prac-
tically an impossibility for a team
to get across the tracks while the
train travels several hundred
yards.
Just whose duty it is to see
that this crossing be better
guarded this paper can not state.
However an electric bell and
street light should be placed
there at once, before some SER
ious accident happens.

THIRTY CARS BRUSH

To date the shipments of broom
corn by the Holly Broom Corn
company total thirty cars, which
means about 300 tons, or some
2100 bales.
Broom corn this year at the
start moved very slowly, the de-
mand being slight and prices
therefore were far from satisfac-
tory to the grower. The market
has improved somewhat and good
broom corn has practically
doubled in price during the past
four months, and now brings
around $50 per ton.
Considerable of the last years
crop still remains to be marketed,
the growers who were financially
able holding same for a better
market. It seems possible that
many more cars will be shipped
shortly, as they are now dispos-
ing of the crop.
Baca county people generally
ship from this point, and the
market here is as good as can be
found,

WILL ERECT w1NDM1LL

The local Civic Club announce
that work will be started shortly
on a well and I windmill at the
cemetery, Mr.. P. V. Conner, the
we'll known drjller, having been
given a contract to put down
the we'll. !
The Club will have the we'll
drilled. install an immense water
tank and provide a windmill, and
it is there intention to make the
local cemetery one of the most
beautiful in the valley.
For years the women of the
town have had water hauled to
the cemetery in tanks, but the
expense and work connected with
the growing Of the trees and
grass has proven costly expert
ment and unsatisfactory.
The ladies' state that the wind
mill will be ready to erect by
April 14th, which is Cemetery
Day." and they expect all men to
be at the cemetery that day to
assist in erecting same.
This is one Of the best improve
ments to be made here for years
and this paper heartily congratu-
lates the Civic club upon the sue
cessful completion Of their hard
campaign.
The Club also wishes to express
its thanks to the many people
who patronized their dinner and
supper last week.
