I should think that you would
have to have most of your dates in
the evening, as men as rule don't
have much time for daytime dates.

A move to prevent the schoo
board from changing music books in
city schools was launched by Mayor
Shank after he had ordered the city

city before the State tax board.
An injunction suit to prevent the

For midsummer the medium-sized
hat is getting a bit of notice. There
is tendency to broaden the sides
of the hats and to shorten the front
and back. Bows and trimmings of
the tailored sort are used in the

TELLS BANKERS
TO ADVERTISE

There is no greater medium OF edu
cation in our daily life than the news
paper, and, OF all mediums offered for
bank Advertising. the columns OF the
newspapers reach the innermost cir.
cles OF our population in the most
widespread manner, Motley II. Flint,
Los Angeles banker, told the confer.
ence Of the Savings Bank Division.
American Bankers Association, held
thers recently.
Advertising one OF mans modern
selling forces, has found fixed place
In the banking field" Mr.. Flint said.
This, too, in the face OF dire predic
tons OF many old-time bankers, who
once ridiculed the idea that advertis-
ing could be applied to the selling Of
a service so intangible as that offered
by banking institutions. The time was
that a bank was satisfied with pub
.Ashing its statement OF condition
That day has been relegated to the
past.
There has been a gratifying TO
sponse on the part OF the public In
this new appeal. From 1t has grown
better understanding by our people of
banks and their functions. Where
bank account formerly was the excep
ton II is now the rule. Surely this
can be attributed principally to the
fact that bankers have come out OF
their shells and, through advertisins,
have induced people generally to come
into their institutions and learn more
about the beneficial services banks
have t. offer. This can be shown in
no better way than by the marvellous
growth in savings accounts.
Astounding sums are being invest
ec annually in bank and financial ah.
verising. say invested advisedly.
It is not merely being spent; 1t is In.
vested. II is invested for various rea.
sons, and not the least OF these Is for
the purpose Of keeping the name Of
our banks before the people, accom-.
panied by bit Of bank education"

One OF the most interesting feat.
ures OF boil weevil control TO the cot
ton farmer is the cost and profit
OF applying measures. Referring to
the use OF calcium arsenAte one ex-
pert has declared that. 1T does not
cost to dust-it does cost not to dust"
A comparison OF three methods Of
poisoning In an average OF all tests
conducted in the South In 1874 has
been made and these figures show
conclusively that It pays to use cal
cium arsenate In dust form. The
comparison follows:
Florida Method Untreated check.
plats averaged a yield per acre Of
1887 pounds OF seed cotton; treated
plats average 6l%.S pounds. a gain Of
1856 pounds at cost OF 1882 an acre
with a profit OF S7.s4.
Sweetened Poisons: Untreated
check -plats averaged a yield OF 66s
pounds per acre, while treated pists
averaged 76s pounds, gain OF loi
pounds at a cost OF 3l011 an acre anl
a profit OF 1904.
Calcium Arsenate In Dust Form:
Unteated checks averaged q yield Of
1866 pounds per acre, and untreated
plats averaged S6s.3 pounds. . sain
of 1927 pounds at cost OF 47.7<
and a profit of 1856.
Thus, II is shown that application
of calcium arsenate In dust form in
creases the yield, lowers the cost an<
increases the profit. Poisoning by
this method should be even more prot.
table this year under average weather
conditions, as the price Of calcium
arsenate Is somewhat lower and prob
ably will not 60 higher provided
farmers buy their supply early in the
season.
Dusting with calcium arsenate
should be applied with machines built
especially for busting cotton and the
applications made only when the air
is calm and the plants are moist. This
usually means making only night ap-
plications. From five to seven pounds
of calcium arsenate should be used
to the acre.
There should be an interval OF four
or five days between applications un.
less a heavy rain follows one appli-
cation. The cotton should be thor
\ kpghly busted until the weevils are
fer control. This usually means
three applications. Applica.

should comply with the same condt
tions that are exacted from any bust
ness man. He should show the banker
that the loan is for productive pu:.
poses. The farmer ought not to OBJ
tsct to a request for a credit state
ment from his banker when negotiat-
ing loan. This statement is hot
dificult to prepare when the farmer
keeps records. The farmer who does
not keep records is not doing business
in a business-like way and is not en-
titled to the same consideration as the
man who does.
For instance, loans to farmers for
the purchase OF well selected high
grade livestock constitute one OF the
most effective ways OF financing the
farmer and helping him to make a
financial success OF his business. In
making these loans, the banker can
well inquire as TO whether the farmer
has adequate housing facilities and
plenty OF the right kind OF feeds be-
fore the investment is made.
II the banker is to encourage farm
ers in investments OF this kind, he
should have hand in protecting these
investments. 1t Is to the advantage
OF the farmer as well as the banker
cluding fire and lightning, and If need
be, tornado. Too much attention can
not be given to the health Of animals.
Neither the banker nor the farmer Is
justified in making an investment In
dairy cows that have not been care
fully tested for tuberculosis.
Work It Out Together
Financing the farmer should be the
result Of teamwork. The banker and
the farmer should consider each other
as confidential advisers. The farmer
needs TO know the dangers attached
to investments. and the banker needs
more information on the possibilities
OF returns on farm investments well
placed No right-minded farmer ought
to object to careful diagnosis OF con
ditions before the loan is negotiated
Both parties are interested in having
the proposed investment pay the in
terest and eventually the principal,
and also return profit to the farmer.
There are times when the banker
might loan to the farmer TO the detrt
ment OF the farmer himself The
farmer who was kept from making .
heavy investment In land when land
values were at their peak is today
blessing the banker for heading him
away from what would have resulted
In serious loss. IL not bankruptcy.
Financing the farmer is a Job that
requires clear thinking and sound
Judgment. The underlying principles
OF a profitable loan or investment
need to be carefully considered by all
parties interested. Two heads arc
better than one, and when two or
more men get together In sympathetic
contact. determined to weigh the va.
rious possibilities OF success and fail
ure, and then act upon their united
Judgment, then the farmer is well
financed.
