ANNUAL BANK
Meeting TUESDAY
Same Officers Of Mountain
Home First National
Bank Are Re elected
For Another Year

A meeting of the stock holders of
the First National Bank of Noun
tain Home was held last Tuesday af-
I ternoon at the bank building in this
city. AS a vote of confidence and as
a reward for the efficient manage
ment of the institution the same
board Of directors and officers, con-
sisting Of President, John f. Gaines;
yice-President and Cashier, o. E.
| Cannon; Assistant Cashier, H. j.
Dick; and directors, J. f. Gaines. O.
e. Cannon, j. A. Mccoy. G. w Ham
mond II. j Dick, Ed Weaver and
Faustino Alsola, were again selected
to head the institution for the COM
ing year
BY comparison of the statements
of the bank, when it was re-opened
on April 3, 1922, with the one rem
dered on December 81, 1925, it is
readily seen that the affairs OF the
bank are in the hands OF efficient
business men who are striving and
are succeeding in building up the
institution The statements show in
this time a decrease Of $271.332.12
in loans and discounts; increase of
S95,9S5.64 in municipal warrants
and U. S. Bonds; increase Of $12,-
295.64 in property; and an increase
OF $23,9S1.2S in cash with banks.
One Of the main features Of the
statement is an increase of s256.-
166.72 in deposits The bills pay
able in April, 1922, were. s429,OOO
and the December, 1925, statement
shows nothing.
1t should be a matter of general
pride to the people of this commune
ity TO see this institution weather
ing the storm as It has in the past
and with the assurance of a sound
banking institution the entire pop
ulace should favor the First Nation
Al Bank Of Mountain Home with
heir patronage.

WEATHER NEARS
NORMAL MARK
Observer States That Fears
For Water Short
age Are Un-
founded

Solon Mccoy, who for the past
thirty years has been taking obser-
yations of the weather and precipi-
tation for the government on Little
Camas, stated to a representative OF
the Republican the forepart of the
past week that the people Of this sec
tion need not as yet have any fears
as to a water shortage
Mr.. Mccoy in going over his rec
ords states that the precipitation on
Little Camas, which is one of the wa
ter sheds for this section, is only a
very little short of the general av-
erage for the past ten years He
states that the streams and springs
are all running a good head and
that there is now considerable wa
ter going into the Camas Reservoir.
One good storm would very easily
put the record up to normal, Mr..
Mccoy states and he is Of the opin-
ion that we yet have plenty of time
for that. There is at the present
time considerable surplus water
stored in the Big Camas reservoir,
much above the average for the past
several years.
The government observer in Boise,
the forepart of the week stated that
it was entirely too early in the sea-
son to predict shortage as the sea-
son of the heaviest precipitation is
still in the offing.

FISH ARE NOT
BITING MAYBE

Jack Goul and James Kite spent
last Sunday fishing on the Boise riv-
er and while reports from that sec
ton are to the effect that the fish
are biting fine they returned with
empty baskets, with the alibi that
there was too much ice to get the
lure to the fish. That is good story
and would likely be given some cred
ence had these two gentlemen not
long ago established their reputa-
tions as fishermen.

Interesting Items On Those

At Glenns
Ferry

The bird dog owned by j. p. Hunt
er was struck by an auto a few days
ago and had its thigh broken. The
driver of the car stopped and took
the dog home (Which is more than
some drivers would do, even if they
struck human being) Chris Dice,
who was near the scene Of the acci-
dent suggested that he be allowed
to set the leg Gas the dog was
valuable one) which he did to the
satisfaction of the dog and his own
er. Most people would not have
been interested in a mere dog.
large number of Glenns Ferry
people are planning on going to
Mountain Home Friday evening TO

GRAIN MARKETS
ABOUT THE SAME
Real Prices Hold Well De

Trading On

Grain future markets did not re-
feet the holiday dullness of the cash
grain markets but continued very ac-
tive and advanced sharply during
the week ending January 2, accord
ing 10 the Weekly Grain Market Re-
view of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Wheat prices
advanced to new high levels for the
crop year but the market was high
ly speculative and speculative oper-
ations were large factor in the
market. The advance in wheat
strengthened the market for feed
grains but colder yeather stimulated
the demand and an additional
strengthening factor.
World conditions were not mater
tally changed during the week. Ar
gentine crop news was rather indif-
ferent. Early in the week rains were
reported to be interfering with the
harvest but later conditions were re-
ported more favorable The foreign
markets remained firm but did not
follow the full advance in the Unit
