D. W. STANDR0D & COMPANY
BANK FAILS TO OPEN DOORS

! The d. w. Standrod & Company
Bank of Blackfoot, failed to open its
doors to the business world Friday
morning and are now in the hands
of the Department of Finance Of the
State of Idaho.
The banks capital and surplus was
s210 100000. Deposits $546,299.92 while
the loans amounted to $1,392, ,082. co.
OF this amount the bank is owing the
Federal Reserve Bank $S00,O00.OO.
The banks failure was due to its
inability to liquidate loans rapidly
enough to take care of the regular
business routine together with the
steady decrease in deposits, this being
due in turn to the exceptionally low
prices for farm products which the
farmer and cattleman have been fore
ed to receive for the past few years.
1t is expected to take some six
weeks or more before the banks
books can be thoroughly audited and
checked, when the actual conditions
of the bank will then be known. 1t
will take many months more to coll
ect the million and three hundred
thousand In loans, but is thought
that with a small skrinkage on the
loans it is possible for the bank to
almost pay out, but should the loan
security shrink to any considerable
degree there is a possibility that the

BUSINESS MEN AID FARMERS

Billings=Reports coming in from
every section of southern and eastern
Montana record unusual activity upon
the business men and bankers to aid
the farmers in establishing themselves
upon a firmer and more profitable
basis, and IN enthusiastic spirit of CO
operation upon the part Of the farm
ers themselves.
In Columbus. just recently, the COM
mercial club Of that city devoted its
entire luncheon hour to a discussion of
ways and means by which every farm
err of that section, who wishes to he so
favored, could be staked TO a few dairy
COWS and get. into the milk, cream and
butter fat business upon a paying
scale. No doubt the problem will be
solved In a manner satisfactory to all
parties concerned, and 1t Will add

banker of Terry, and widely known as
one of eastern Montana's leading flnan-

developed into every phase of farm
Industry and thousands of young
people in every state are now actively
engaged in the production OF all crops
and live stock. Fundamental business
principles associated with farming are
taught by the requirement OF accurate
records OF all work. In 1922 there
were 10000 farm boys and girls in
America. Nearly 1900 OF this number
are enrolled In Holstein clubs, accord
