Business Is Excellent
In Grocery Trade

Meyer Marcus, the popular uptown
grocer, who conducts g. general gro
Gerry and meat shop at 2030 North
Seventh street, says business was
never better for the sale of staple
and fancy groceries.
More people today are buying the
necessary food products than ever
before. People are beginning to
realize that they must save in some
way, so are cutting out amusements
and so on and instead of skimping
with their groceries are buying more
instead.
Besides groceries, Mr.. Marcus
handles a full line of fresh and
smoked meats. Both phones are in
stalled and delivery service is
maintained. Your patronage is So
licited.

BANKS AND
THE LIBERTY BONDS

The Comptroller o. the Currency
has made an interesting statement Of
the part the national banks played in
the three Liberty Loans.
He reports that 5000. 0O0.0 600, lit
tie more than half Of the aggregate OF
the loans. passed through national
hank channels. By far the greater
part Of this was absorbed by indi-
g-idual subscribers. On June % only
about 500. 0O0. 900 Of Liberty bonds,
constituting less than 3 per cent OF
heir assets. were held By national
banks. Al the same time the national
hank loans on Liberty bonds were only
s475. 0O0. 900, or 212 per cent. Of their
assets.
These figures are taken by the
Treasury Department TO Indicate that
Liberty bonds have been taken largely
by individual investors and are being
held by them
The Comptroller Of the Currency has
10 jurisdiction over and makes no
reference 10 the banks Of the country
other than the national banks, but i
: believed that an investigation would
show that most Of the other banks
were equally active in the loans
Secretary McAdoo, in speaking of
the work OF the banks for the various
loans. made no distinction between M
tional and other banks in praising
their efficient assistance and coopera-
ton, and he Ia suppressed the hope
and belief that IN the coming loan they
VIII continue the policy which has
been Of such tremendous service TO the
Treasury and the country.
II Is well here, however, TO quote
further from Secretary McAdoo's
statement regarding the banks.
''The loan must have the support Of
the people Of America. The support
g the banks, great as their support
Is, and welcome as i Is. and splendid
- il has been, is not enough alone TO
carry the burden The only
true way to finance this war Is 10 sell

competitors to overcome. In the last
few years the yields of wheat and
oats per acre have surprised the agri-
cultural world. AS much as sixty BUSH
els of wheat per acre has been grown

bushels of wheat per acre, and oats as

makes affidavit to crop return of over
fifty-four thousand bushels of wheat
