n HE banking business differs from
Sother business in many respects and
one Of those differences is in the matter
Of early closing.
In the cities, banks close at three and
do not open until ten. In the country,
il is generally the practice to open at
nine and close at four. The reason for
an earlier closing is that it is absolutely
necessary in bank to complete and
balance all departments of the day s
work before leaving the bank. This
takes from two to sometimes ten hours
according to the run Of business.
1t is not desire to be other than ac-
commodating that banks close at the
hour determined. 1t is a positive ne
cessity.
In order to best serve the community
and to be able to advise with a clear
mind and head, it is advisable to get
away from the office by six or SIX
thirty. This fact is recognized by any
doctor or authority on the subject.
Our hours are nine TO four. ] am to
close at four and that means close; not
have the back door open. 1t takes just
as long to talk to man coming in the
back door as if he were to come in the
front door.
! have averaged one O'Clock in the
morning in getting away from the bank
for the last three months, and the pur-
pose of this article is to try and get a
little cooperation as regards closing
time.
Whenever anything out of the ordi.
nary is involved. such as sickness,
deaths or very important transactions
arise suddenly, ! am glad to serve if il
takes all night. but in the ordinary run
OF business when the curtain on the
front door is down, the bank is closed.

When Lincoln and
Lee Agreed

Lincoln and Lee differed rad
ically on the one great question
of their day, but agreed on the
value ofa policy in the Hartford
Fire Insurance Company.
Both great leaders turned to
the "Hartford' for insurance
before the beginning of the Civil
War, General Lee taking out a
Hartford T policy on "Arling-
tom in Virginia, while Pres
ident Lincoln insured his home
at Springfield, Ill.
As in the days of Lincoln and
Lee, men who know the long,
clean record of the "Old Hart

IF PREPARED, SKIM
MILK CAN BE MADE
GOOD FOR FOOD

Although skim milk is recognized
IS having great value IN feeding ami
mails, the United States department of
agriculture points out that its value
as human food should be kept in
mind BY substituting grain, green
feed, buttermilk and whey in animal
feeding, much skim milk may be left
for human use as a beverage. in cook
ing, condensing. or for making cottage
cheese. Only the surplus of this valu-
able human food should be fed 10
stock.
While skim milk liz good for stock.
the fact remains that its highest efHc-
iency can not be had through turning
It into meat. Skim milk is used most
economically in animal production.
when fed to hogs, yet il takes 20
pounds when fed alone TO produce
one pound Of pork The same quan-
ttty will make three pounds of cottage
cheese. In addition, cottage chees
contains one and one-half times as
much protein and one-third as much
energy as pork, so that the skim milk
in the cheese form gives quite as much
energy and four and one-haif times as
into ham or bacon.
Even al the highest prices recently
paid for hogs, skim milk fed to them
is worth not more than one cent q
pound. Yet one cent g. pound or ap-
proximately one cent pint, is very
cheap for and food, and par
ticularly for a food SO high in nutrf-
tive value as skim milk
