Automobile Industry
Had Enormous Growth
BUSINESS HAS GROWN IN rs
YEARS TO ONE OF THE
WORLDS GREATEST

The automobile industry has no
parallel in business annals.
No other industry has had such a
dramatic career-none has grown so
great in such a short span of years.
The explanation simple itself-in the
contribution which the motor car has
brought to the world in improved
standards of living, increased happi-
ness and health, greater personal and
business efficiency.
The automobile industry has leaped
to the fore and assumed its present
commanding proportions and the in
dustry will keep on growing because
there is no substitute for the auto
mobile as a means of individual trans
portation.
It seems but few short years ago
that the first "horseless carriages"
were in our midst crude, erratic and
generally unreliable vehicles that en-
listed laughter for themselves and
ridicule for their creators. These vehi-
cles lacked everything the present day
motor car has beauty, quietness com
fort, speed, flexibflity, power and
dependability- they would travel
and that was sufficient consolation
for their inventors.
A little over Is years ago there
were but two automobiles in the
country and one of them was curios
ity in a circus sideshow. Today there
are about 12,OOO,OOO motor vehicles in
the United States. When one compar-
IS the first horseless carriages with
the marvellous mechanism known as
he motor car Of today, the contrast
is striking, but even more amazing is
he fact that so great transforms
ion could have been wrought in
little over two decades.
From virtually nothing 25 years ago,
he automobile industry has become
The largest industry in the world.
Owning an automobile is second ma
ture with the people today. 1t is
habit, and good one. The benefits
which the automobile has brought to
she world are lncalculable. The motor
car, a creation of men with vision, in
creases che vision of everybody own
ng one. No single article or product
mas been instrumental in doing so
much or anywhere near so much in
iding the good roads movement and
crever benisning the isolation of
arm life. TIE automobile has ami
lilated distance, bringing the farmer
the city and taking the city man
tut into the country.
The automobile has been the great
st euickener of business the world
las ever known. Business and profes
ional men cover ground more quickly
With the motor car, widen their radius
# activity and make themselves and
heir communities.
Nations and individuals are incom-
,arably better off because of the mo-
cor car and the industry which pro-
luces it-that's why practically every
oody either owns ali automobile or
ropes and expects some day TO own
one.

Country Bankers Are
Mainstay Of Farmers
COUNTRY BANKER IMPORTANT
FACTOR IN RURAL CREDIT
SYSTEM

One of the most important factors
in the rural credit situations was given
merited recognition in resolutions
adopted at the meeting of the National
Council Of Farmers Cooperative Mar
keting associations at Washington a
few days ago when it was declared
that the local banker must be the pri
mary reliance of the farmer in product
ion and marketing credits.
1t must be realized in all considera-
ton of rural credit problems that the
home banker is now, and will always
continue to be, the most important
single source of funds for the farmer
in producing and marketing his crops.
have never been able to share in
the feeling of prejudice against the
home town banker which is sometimes
expressed by farmers. It is true that
there are bad bankers and dishonest
farmers, put the country bank has
been the only resource, in most cases
of the farmer in the past, and in con
sidering rural credit legislation his
place in the future system cannot be
overlooked.
It is true that the small banker car
not meet some of the demands of the
farmers for credit accommodations
His capital is limited his loans are
carefully hedged in by very proper
legal restriction, he must obtain a
speedy turnover on Most OF his f,glds
he cannot make the large loans requil
ed for mortgages, in many cases.
He is the man, however, who mus
be depended upon for the short time
financial accommodations which tn
farmer requires, as well as any other
business man. He is depended upo1
by a very large majority of farmer
for advice on financial matters and il
is to the credit of the members of the
banking business in rural communities
that few small towns lack at least ono
man who is regarded as absolute1.
trustworthy by his farmer customers
and whose advice is accepted upon the
most vital financial problems Of the
farmer.
The country banker, as well as the
farmer, has been a heavy sufferer dun
ing the recent period of rural depres
sion, which I hope is now passing
away The melting away of rural as
sets due to the atrocious deflatior
policy of 1920 left many bankers If
an insolvent condition, as well az
thousands of farmers. Like the fam
eys, many of these bankers are just
| lightning to see a solution of then
| financial troubles.
Regardless of what may be done il
the future in the way of establishing
long time rural credit systems, cooper
ative banking enterprises, or extended
facilities of the land bank system, tn
country banker and the country banl
will continue to be in close touch will
the farmers of the country, and mus
be r. garded as the most importan
single source of funds for ag ''cultura
purposes. Hope that in consideration
# rural credit matters that his prob
lens also will receive attent on, ant
that the possibility of aftording cheap
er funds through his channels will no
be overlooked-The Wisconsin Farm
