The Bank of Tupelo held its annual
meeting in the directors room We'd
Tiesaay, the 9tn INST, at which the
conditions of the bank as submitted
by the officers was gone into. The
statement showed the bank to be car
rying it's heaviest line of deposits and
the general affairs of this old and
popular institution to be in a -four
ishing condition. There was divi-
dend of eight per cent. declared while
the remainder of the earnings were

r. B. Clark, the cashier, has pushed
forward the business along all safe
and conservative fines in his manage

ence and business of the bank since
he took charge of it. The deposits on

First National Bank.
The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the First National Bank of
Tupelo was held on the 8th, inst,
and the report made by the officers
was substantial evidence that the
business Of the bank during the past
year had been conducted strictly
along banking lines and that the bank
was never in better condition.
During the last half of the year Mr..
f. Johnson, the cashier, had leave
of absence which was spent in Cali
fornia, and the cashiers duties de-
volved upon David Harkey. AL
though quite young man he was
found to be equal to the occasion
and gave most satisfactory account
of himself with these responsible
duties on his shoulders. Mr.. johnson
returned before the holidays, how
ever, and again entered upon the du-
ties of his position which he has held
so long and faithfully. The deposits
of the bank were never so large as
now. A dividend of seven per cent
was declared and the remaining prof,
it's were carried to the surplus account
which is now equal to the capital
stock. The following officers and di-
rectors were reelected: j. G. Rob-
ms, president; w. w. Trice, vice.
president; j. D. Bryan v. c. Kin
cannon, F. johnson, with Mr.. M. M.

W. P, Harwell Of Ringllns, Jefler-
son county, Oklahoma. has been In
Demlng several times lately to see his
son, who is at Camp Cody. Mr.. Har-
well Is very much taken with this
county as a stock country and he seems
very DESTROYS Of locating here. He has
been In the stock business IN Oklahoma
Tor good many years.
Mr.. Harwell was much impressed
with the lack Of dipping watts In Luna
county to eradicate ticks and lice. In
his country almost every stockralser
has vat and dips his cattle In both
the spring and fall. Il Is no longer an
experiment with them and Mr. Harwell
maintains that II is one Of the best In
vestments that the cattle raiser can
make.
The expense Of such vas as are USED
In his country cost about $3.50. and it
easily pays a man who has as many
as 300 cattle to have one Of his own.
Where a man has less than 800 cattle
he recommends that a community vat
be built by several stock owners. Cat.
tie can easily be driven five or six
miles without being hurt, he maintains.
Dipping all Of their stock horses Is
also a common practice.
When the cattle which are shipped
have been dipped they need not go into
quarantine and they easily bring from
$500 to 500 more per head than the
undipped cattle.
