HOW THE BANxnH HELPS.

How can the banker help the farm
er? Haven't you often wondered about
that. and yet never taken the time to
investigate thoroughly or to ask some
one who really knows?
In the first place the banks help to
finance stock breeding and corn-raising
clubs; they help to maintain county
farm bureaus and. almost always, they
are liberal contributors to the support
of county agents. And il is the three
agencies here mentioned which do so
much to help the farmer increase his
production. Therein the farmer is help
ed, and when production increases the
business man of Yazoo City feels the
effect, as everyone knows.
Then, too the bankers, as a rule.
are well-read men. They know what
the community needs to bring its fl
nances up to a higher point. Whether
1t is drainage, better roads, more la
bor-saving machinery-no matter-the
banker realizes the need of his partic-
ular community. and he helps to get it.
He consults the farmers, and he learns
their views regarding production. He
studies the money markets, and he is in
position to give patrons Of the bank
some sound advice along the line and
cash must be had to tide over between
crops He gives wise counsel be-
cause he knows that whatever helps the
farmer will help the community at
large. and upon the community at large
depends the success or failure Of the
Institution in which he is interested
and in which he has his money invest
