EXCHANGE FORMED

The State Bank of Ladysmith has
subscribed 500 toward the organiza
ton of Banker Farmer Exchange,
the purpose of which is to encourage
better crops and live stock and secure
IL broader market for buyer and seller
The Wisconsin Bankers Association
is back of this movement and is ready
to do its part toward making it sue
cess In supporting the movement the
banks of the state hope to render an
additional service to the farmer that
will result in increasing farm profits
and in aiding agricultural develop
ment
The farmer who has one or more
horses, bulls, cows, sheep, hogs, etc.
for sale calls at his local bank and re-
ports what he has for sale. The items
are noted on blanks available at the
bank. This list is forwarded by the
bank to the Banker Farmer Exchange.

the same day it is received. This CEN
trail office will receive similar lists from
other banks over the state. These will
he classified according to the type of
animal or product offered for sale, and
according to the county where they are
located. This central office will be con-
stantly on the lookout for buyers and
when located will refer them to the
banks where the animals have been
listed. When the buyers report to the
banks the latter will see that they get
in touch with the farmers who have
the livestock for sale. The sale of i'm
proved or pure-bred seeds are handled
through the banks in the same manner
The farmer who wishes to buy IA
team of horses, few cows or heiferS.
sheep or hogs. can make known his
wants to the local bank The bank i'm
his community will report these wants
change. This Office will then notify
the bank of the nearest place or places
where the livestock can be obtained
and at what price. The farmer desir-
ing to make the purchase will be direct
ed to the banks through which live
stock has been listed. That bank will
place him in touch with the farmer
and if found satisfactory can buy at
the price agreed upon with the farmer
who wants to sell. BY handling large
number of animals an excellent oppor-
tunity will be given for the selection
of the type and breeding desired. The
farmer will lose no time in locating
them and as near home as possible and
thus save expense and reduce the dan
ger Of accident or delay in shipping.
