CURRY
Heavy Shipments

Ninety CdTlOduS OF WHcdt WSic
shipped from elevators in this city
to market points during this month,
with a prospect OF even a greater
number for the month of Septem-
Der. The August shipments of wheat
were valued at $24000000.
Cattle shipments during this month
amounting to IS cars were valued at
$40 10000
Twenty cars OF bear grass valued
at $4,000 were also shipped from
this point during this month.
The total value of shipments from
this city during this month have so
far reached SOL 10000.
Prospects for cattle shipments
amounting to 5000 head are apparent
for the period between Sept. |, and
Nov. |, Approximate valuation of
these shipments are given as a quar-
ter million dollars.
OffsettinE this exodus of cattle
! from the region, it is estimated that
better than 1000 head will be ship
ped in from drouth stricken sections
in Wyoming and Montana to be
wintered in Curry county. The vast
grain and forage crops will doubt
less attract much stock to this re-
gion for wintering purposes.
In estimates that have been given
ont this week it is stated that Curry
county's shipments in wheat and cat
tie alone for the period between
! August and January |, will reach
,one million dollars. These estimates
do not comprise the corn, kaffir,
maize. millet. and broom corn crops
which are to confront the mark@,
within the next thirty or forty-five
days Clovis Journal.

CHRISTMAS CLUB DEVELOPS
THE SAVING HABIT
The Peoples Bank Again Offers This
Most Popular Form of Savings

For three years the popularity and
success of its Christmas Club has been
phenomenal This Club gives every
body a chance to save regularly, Tor
the bank is willing to accept small
amounts. Even boys and girls are IN
vited to become members, for 1t is q
well-known fact that the saving habit
needs to be fostered in this country.
once the youthful mind realizes how
really easy it is to save and how pleas
ant it is to have money in bank, the
saving habit Will become lifelong.
A large number of people, whether
their incomes are large or small, find 1t
difficult to get ahead" financially.
They postpone the time when they Will
start saving to provide for the rainy
Gay because they never seem to have
enough spare money to start a bank
account The Christmas Club is a
great benefit to the people in this way,
for they don't need any more capital
to get started than the first small pay
ment. and after all, the start is the i'm
portant thing.
Although the first Club payment is
due December 22nd. members may JOIN
before that time by paying in advance.
Me Club runs fifty weeks. so that each
mi viii receive check in time Tor
Christmas shonping. When payments
are made regularly the bank allows in
taqest at 3%e 6njthe account, which IS
always an encouragement TO saving.
IA number Of plans are offered and
members may select one or more of
them. In the uniform classes one may
pan 25c., soc, S1.00 or $500 weekly, the
teeais accounting respectively to $3.50,
$4,000. $4,000 and 100000. Another way
is what is known as the progressive
class. in which the payment increases
every week. one of these classes
starts at &c. next week 4c, and so on
The 2e. progressive Club natures at
$3.50. Then there is a &c. progressive
club maturing at $63.75. These pro-
gressive Clubs may be reversed, start
ing at the highest amount first n
finishing with the lowest. The sc. re-
ducing class starts at $3.50 and works
down to Sc, while the &c starts at Sl.0O
and comes down to &c. as the lowest
payment.
Ordinary books are not needed in
carrying the Christmas Club accounts.
The Peoples Bank of Penns Grove
is using a patented card system
in which the record of payment
is made by punching cards. This not
onIy gives the depositor a receipt, but
also shows exactly how much has been
paid in to date, and does away with
any possibility of error.
This attractive method of saving has
proven most popular.-AdV.
