Each Of Two Local Asscoci-
atoms At Same Time
Increased Assets

The two building and loan associa-
tons in Henderson made loans ag-
gregating $4,000 during October, and
at the same time each had an increase
in it's assets, according to reports
from the two organizations today.
Seventeen loans in all were made.
Five of them were on construction of
new homes in the amount of $4,000.
The other twelve loans, amounting to
81, 100, were for re-financing, repairs,
re-conditioning and other purposes
It was said that all indications point
to November being another excellent
month for the two organizations from
the standpoint both of loans and in
vestments. The loans made were all
from the receipts of savers and in
vestors, who found the building and
loan associations an attractive place.

POSTAL RECEIPTS
UNDER A YEAR AGO
First Time In Two Years
Any Month Drops Below
Previous Year

Receipts of the Henderson pest Of
flee last month dropped below the
comparative month in the previous
year for the first time in two years,
or since November, 1886, Postmaster
J. r. league said today in announcing
the statistics for the month.
Receipts last month were $3,72393,
as against $4,067.50 in November,
1887, loss of $343.57.
This setback did not wipe out the
margin for the year over last year,
however. For eleven months of 1888
the total business was SAT, 021.59, COM
pared with $45, 27211, a gain of ST.
749.48.
For the entire calendar year 1897
the post office did a total business
slightly in excess Of $51,0OO Only $4,-
900 more is needed to put 1888 as a
whole well ahead of 1887, and there is
every indication that that figure will
be attained in December. Receipts
for the final month last year amount
ed to $6,328.62.

the method of pruning and the tine
Of pruning each is different. For

growth starts. The hybrid teas should
be pruned when the buds are swellinr

pruning necessary on the climbing
roses should be done soon after the
blooming season. Extension Circu-

Pounds Here
Ne early 100000
Paid at Average of
$21.49; Season Ends
In Two Weeks

With only two more weeks of the
current selling season left, the Hen
derSOn tobacco market the past week
sold 694 ,220 pounds for Silt, 842.59 at
an average of $1697 per hundred That
brought the season total to 10 582, 146
pounds, bringing $685. 42.91 for an
average of $21.49 per hundred pounds.
The figures were announced Off
cially by Fred Allen, sales supervisor
for the market, and he gave Fridays
weekend sale as 181, $50 pounds for
$29, 688.86, at an average of $16.35 per
hundred
The market has two full weeks yet
to go for the current season, ending
on Friday, December Is, for the first
time the market has closed before the
Christmas holidays in more than a
quarter of century The short crop
and the speed with which the pound
age has been marketed by growers is
the reason for the early closing. Us
ually the market runs well on toward
the end of January and sometimes in
to February before the season is
finally ended
At one time it had been anticipated
that season sales would reach 20 mil
lion pounds, but the small volume Of
the past week has about dissipated
that prospect. It is doubted now if
there will be more than a million
pounds sold during the remaining two
weeks. The total is now expected to
be around 10 IL million pounds.
Most of the leaf now finding it's way
to market is of inferior quality which
accounts for the low prices being
paid, tobacco men say.

mere 1se of 100000 over the previous
month This was also the largest
amount loaned during any month in
1888
The associations were tremendously
busy during October making construc-
ton loans. This type of disbursement
accounted for the major portion of tne
increase over the September volume
of loans, for during October the asso-
ci atoms loaned $95O,000 to 500 indivsd-
uals for the construction of new
homes, thereby adding to the taxable
wealth. of the communities. These
community home financing institu-
tions enabled another 246 people to
purchase homes and more than 200
to make repairs or recondition their
homes, according to John B. Craver.
The balance of the 100000 in hosne
loans made during October by them
