Getting Your Money Out of the
Bank.

If the bank rendered no other
service to the community than to
protect its valuables it would
render a useful one but it would
be mouse-trap proposition, you
could only 60 one way but the
bank makes it easier TO get
money out than in, and in the
outgoing process assumes risks
and renders benefits too often
lost sight of in the busy whirl of
business.
We take many things for
granted and live in matter-of-
fact age. We want our morning
paper at the breakfast table with
never a delay and with little
thought of what it costs to col
lect. transmit, type, print and de-
liver the news. We want our
train on the dot or we get inn
patient. We want our milk and
our coal. blizzard or no blizzard.
We likewise expect the bank to
do our business smoothly, eff
ciently. and without thought Of
the cost or the risk attending.
When your bank hands you .
check book. it gives you license
to draw as many checks, in as
large or as small sums as you
wish, with the only provision Tex
cept in certain cases where a
minimum balance is required)
that YOU do not overdraw. and
promises to honor your checks as

presented as long as your balance
is sufficient to pay them.
Whether You want to pay yonr
creditor in the next block, or a
thousand miles away, the check
ing privilege of bank account
permits you to make your pay
ment with ease, safety and dis
patch. .... ..+. % .a...
When YOU mail your check
your trouble is over and the
bank s has just begun. for the
bank warrants to you three
things, all for your own protee-
ton and at its own risk. 1t is
well to know them.
1t guarantees (a) That it will
pay only the checks you have
signed. If your name is forged
and the bank pays the check, it
cannot charge the amount to your
account; (b) That it viii pay
only in the sum originally
drawn. If some one gets your
check and raises the amount,
making it apparently genuine
check. the bank can only charge
the amount in which you orig
inally drew the check, unless it
can show you were grossly care
less in so drawing that you in
vited fraud. Therefore be care
full to draw your checks properly +;
(c) To pay to the party to whom
you ordered the amount paid
and none other. If the check
gets into the hands of strangers
who forge the Endorsement. so
that the party to whom you or
dered the money paid does not
get it, the payment is at its risk,
and YOU are harmless.
All this is ultimately for your
good as a depositor. You know
that your account cannot be
drawn against except on your
order. You know that the party
vou want to receive payment gets
it. You get back the most per-
feet voucher known to the huSi-
ness world. Many a dispute has
been settled and loss and law

AsKov COUNTY MINNESOTA THURSDAY FEBRUARY IT,

To obtain the very best results of
farming.
In 1887 the farmers eo-opera
tion in production was extended
to building slaughter houses,
which now number about 4O,
mainly located III the larger cities.
ln that year Germany closed for
the import Of hogs from Dem
mark, and the private concerns
that exported bacon to England
did not pay the Danish farmers
a fair price. Then the farmers
took the matter in their own
hands, and now the returns for
bacon, exported to England are
many times as large as ii was IN
1887, II being close to $50 900, !
COO a year. Cooperation Ii also
carried on for exporting and sell
ing the eggs from Denmark In
England as we'll as for buying
creamery supplies, different
kinds Of feed for the dairy COWS.
artificial fertilizers. agricultural
machinery and implements, etc.
| BY this extensive cooperation
the producers and the consumers
are brought very close together.
The cost OF production Is brought
down TO minimum, making the
whole movement economically
very important for each family,
and thereby for the whole nation.
The chief reasons for the sue
cess OF cooperation among the
farmers of Denmark in found iii
the education of the people.
Through the folk high schools
young men and women have not
| only gained practical knowledge
and business ability, but their
minds have grown healthy and
strong, fitting them for great ii =
good work.
The cooperation in matters of
economy has not only proved a
means to save money and create
| profits to d very large extent; IL
| has also bound the co workers to-
gether III close fellowship. II has
created sense of mutual interest
ia all the walks of life. The work,
| ingtogether in one thing has been
teaching the people to work TO.
gether in other things, and pro.
NOTED the feeling Of brotherhood
| Gradually the understanding
dawned upon them that unselfish.
ness is a better guide than selfish.
/ ness. even in matters of money,
because there is strength in union
and the working Of all together
brings better results than each
one fighting against all for his
own profit The taking care oi
| their own business has educated
the people to understand ailo
! handle it with success.
! Cooperation then means fal
more than a saving on the differ
ent necessities of life. While it
| in the first instance, saves ane
makes money, it does not stoI
/ here. Its object is to work ont
| in practice, the truth, that we arr
created to be fellow workers noi

lily to whom the earth with its
richness is given, If we only are
complying with the condition
that it shall be for all not for {
