> We are calling attention to the
stateMent of the First National bank,
which appears in another column of
the paper. This statement is made in
pursuance Of the law which requires
national banks to report to the comp
troller Of currency from time to time
under oath the condition of such
banks. At this season of the year
large sums of money are required to
transact the business of this commun-
ity. and this statement reveals the
preparedness of this bank to care for
thel situation. The total footings are
$1,24S,S27. 40, which are the largest
ever published by any other bank in
this county. The amount Of money
on hand and in banks subject to call,
known as reserve is $25S, 013.54. which
is more than three times the amount
required under the banking laws, and
shows conservative condition. The
general prosperity of the bank and its
patrons is reflected in deposits of over
a million and total resources above
million and q quarter dollars.
