FARMERS MONEY BURNED

Another striking illustration of the folly of keeping large sums of money about the house or in other insecure places comes from Corinth Miss, where seven thousand dollars in currency was burned in a fire which also de- stroyed a farmers house.
 T. M. Nelms of that place took the precaution to insure his cotton when it was stored in compress, which burned a short time later But when he received his insurance money, in- stead of depositing it in a bank, he kept it in his home
 The house caught fire at night, and although Nelms son was badly burned and nearly lost his life in an attempt to save his money, it was all consumed by the flames.
 Inumerable cases of loss occure thru fire and theft as the result of failure to use the banks for safe-keeping of cash and other valuables. UhfOrtu- nately such losses usually fall upon those least able to stand them.

PATRONlzE YOUR BANK

Another striking illustration of the folly of keeping large sums of money about the house or in other insecure places comes from Corinth, Miss. where $7,OO0 in currency was burned in a fire which destroyed the farmers home.
 T. H. Nelms of that place took the precautions to insure his cotton when it was stored in a compress, which burned a short time later. But when he received his insurance money, in stead of depositing it in bank, he kept it in his home
 The house caught fire at night, and although Nelms son was badly burned and nearly lost his life in an attempt to save the money, it was all consum ed by the flames.
 Innumerable cases of loss occur through fire and theft as the result of failure to use the banks for the safe keeping of cash and other vaIu ables. Unfortunately such losses usu ally fall upon those least able to beal them. And in addition, the men who are most adverse to keeping theil money in banks are those who have large sums but temporarily.

It might be if you talked with this Senator friend of yours he might enlighten you as to why the government went to so much expense providing fine hotels at some of it's mines. To my certain knowledge at Eska, one of the gov ernment mines there is a bunkhouse or rather hotel, two stories high, and 150 feet long with 70 or 80 rooms in it and cost about $S0,000
