SOME BANK

Investigations made by the Missouri
Bankers Association have revealed
that 36s banks In the state in towns
of under 1000 population are paying
their cashiers and chief executives an
average Of only $40 q month. Only
273 OF the l.l62 reporting banks In
towns under 5000 population pay the
president q salary. The report says
1T indicates that, even allowing for
the economy OF living in small com
munities, the cashiers and managing
officers Of those 1852 banks, who re
ceive an average OF $40 per month,
either mast have personal means to
begin with. or must maintain the
standards necessary to their positions
as the leaders Of their com 70 unities and
the builders of the common wealth by
means Of side lines such as selling
insurance, collecting commissions on
farm loans, and trading In real estate"

q rAltrOad Tor the county mat talk
went home with those present and will
long be remembered. He said, "You
will get a railroad when you get more
settlers"
1.-THE country is all right, the
people here are all right. What it
ncds is more farmers. More men who
want TO get some cheap land while the
getting is good. More men and
women who are willing to pioneer for
a short time that their posterity may
enjoy homes.'
In the face Of u sixtv-mile wind the
band played a march through main
main street and down to the garage
headquarters where the next days
route was being layed out. The farm
ers were turning out III greater num-
bers. A caravan OF automobiles
bucked that wind TO the tame of sing
ing boosters, visited farms all over
the west end of the county, winding
up for dinner at the home OF Albert
Arp. Here a ~6-year-old steer had
been barbecued and formed the solid
part of a real pioneer dinner. After
the professors and speakers had wrap
ped themselves around about ten
pounds of choice roast they were per
suaded to pose for a picture and were
introduced to the many farmers who
had met the caravan at the Arp place.
The afternoon was spent III inspect.
ing fields of alfalfa and herds of fin
livestock. The visitors were taken to
the home Of Frank Day where a dem,
o~nstration was held showing the solu-
ton of the small mare problem. Mr..
Day has two jacks and is raising
mules. He has a ~two-year-old mare
mule that, Mr.. Kennedy claims is q
wonderful show prospect. The dam
Of this mule is q small mare weigh,
ing about 1000 pounds.
Swine Demonstration Held
The party was taken to the home OF
W. j. Teutsch where a demonstration
was given with Hampshire hogs. Mr.,
Teutsch is one Of the young farmers
started with purebred Hampshires by
the Rosebud Farms. This herd shows
dearly what can be done upon cheap
land and with plenty of grass and al,
falfa.
Nh. Teutsch bought two sows two
years ago. He has owe 1000 worth
of market hogs from the offspring OF
these two sows. He has something
like $50 head Of hogs left upon the
place.
Banquet Served at White River
In the evening after the long drive
throughout the west end of the county
the farmers and business men met al
the Jones hotel where the Commercial
club Of White River had ordered i
sumptuous banquet spread.
w. J. Arnold of the South Dakota
Development Association was the prin-
cipal speaker Of the evening. His ad,
dress was a plea to the farmers to pay
more attention TO their families while
rushing the business of growing live
stock. His was a touching appeal fol
better citizens, better homes and lastly
,ntfar Government
w. c. Allen of the Dakota Farmer
published at Aberdeen was present
throughout the tour and made "a
splendid talk at the banquet.
1t is said that this tour will be pro-
ductive Of some real results. The
farmers hope to put out more alfalfa
for seed purposes. They have learned
some valuable points relative to the
management Of their livestock work
The county will gain a great deal OF
publicity and thereby gain new set
lers. Let 5 go again is the cry heard
