LEADS IN SOUTH LEAGUE

team defeated Union, 1922, in the
Ostrander gymnasium, to take
over first place in the S out h
League. Watkins Reserves were
also winners, 29-l4.
Despite their victory, Watkins
fans were disappointed in their
teams performance, the poorest
game they have played in c
November. The boys were listless
and dead in their performance
and did nothing right, although
their offense improved somewhat
in the third quarter.
Watkins held a 4-3 lead at the
end Of the first quarter, but the
score was tied at 8-all at the half.
In the third stanza, the winners
forged h e d to a 2514 lead.
Wade collected Is points to lead
the Watkins scoring, while Hayes
was high for Union with 7 points,
all from the foul line.

caution URGED
In BUYING FARMS

Ohio farm land prices have
reached the point where all
farmers and lenders should look
very carefully before new debt
lis created for the purchase of
farm land, according to resolu-
tion recently adopted by
: the agricultural committee of the
Ohio Bankers Association.
While diScouraging further
farm land debt based on inflated
' land prices, the Committee urged
bankers to continue their pre-
sent policies for farm production.
The resolution followed recent
announcement that Ohio farm
land prices have reached point
i. of l59, or equal to the peak
which followed the first World
War. While there are variations
from this point in some parts
of the state, the Committee took
note of the fact the nationwide
figure is within eight points OF
y IilI IilSll III j0AO WliiNli w Wdo 1Oi
lowed by disaster to farmers and
farm lenders.
The six points of the bankers
resolution are:
/. Discourage borrowing to
speculate in farm lands.
2. Discourage debt based on
high prices which may result in
4 excessive debt when prices re-
turn to nearer normal.
3. Encourage farmers TO pay
current debt out of present high
income.
4. Encourage farmers to inn
prove land owned before buying
more,
5. Urge farmers TO have finan-
4 cial reserves through bank saw
4 ings and u. S. savings bonds.
Y 6. Farm values depend upon
ability to produce good income
over several near normal years,
not just during wartime and its
aftermath.
