Markets, the University of Mary
land Extension Service and the
u. S. Department of Agriculture,
had set up recommendations for
sampling and testing grain by
members of the Association that
they had held two grain grading
schools before the fall harvest last
year, which were attended by 90
members and their employees, and
that these people were instructed
on the proper methods to sample
and grade grain by experts from
the u. S. Department Of Agricul-
ture. He also reported that all
Steinlite moisture testers used by
members of the association had
been checked for accuracy by the
Maryland Department of Markets
and that all machines meeting their
requirements had been stamped
and approved by the Maryland De-
partment of Markets. Mr.. Covell
stated that he thought the work
the association had done would go
a long way to build confidence and
good will between the producer and
the buyer. He also stated that he
hoped that all grain buyers who
were not members of the associa-
ton would follow their example.

Gas Ordinance To
Gel Final Readinu
Council Must Act On
Proposal, Feb. lst.

The third and final reading
of the proposed new ordinance
by the Ohio Fuel Gas company
for consumers in Caldwell will
be read Tuesday evening, Feb.
/, when regular meeting of the
council is held at City Hall.
Definite action must be taken
by the council on this ordinance
at the February meeting. The
proposed ordinance will be an
increase over the prevailing
rates but still less than that now
paid by rural consumers outside
the corporation limits.
The Permian Oil & Gas COM
pany has also filed a similar
ordinance to that of the Ohio
Fuel Gas company with exactly
the same rates.
A survey would indicate that
council will probably be in
favor of the new ordinance.
1t is also expected that a new
council member will be selected
at this meeting to fill the vac
ancy created when Emil Barnett
moved to Middleburg.

DOG Owners Flock To
Courthouse al DeadIine

Canine owners in Noble county
flocked to the courthouse last
Wednesday and Thursday and
literally swamped the office of
Auditor Gilbert B. Long with
requests for dog tags.
1t was conservativeIy estimat-
ed that about 900 tags were is
sued on the two days by the
auditor and his deputies before
the deadline at 4;3O p. m. on
Thursday.
The total sold before the dead
line was 1881, which is below
normal for this county.
Two days prior to the dead
line only 900 tags had been issu-
ed. A penalty of $1.00 is assessed
automatically with each sale
after the deadline.

Financial Resources
Total S9,377,7s3.oO
Al Close OF Year
Amount Is Slightly
Less In Comparison
With Previous Yeor

Total assets in the three fin
ancial institutions in Caldwell
amounted to $9,377,783.90, when
the books closed Dec. 81, 1854.
1t can safely be said that 1854
was a near ecord-breaking year
for the Farmers g. Merchants
Bank, The First National Bank
and The Caldwell Building and
Loan Company, according to
their recently published finan-
cial statements.
In any case, it reveals that
Noble county residents have
kept up with and sometimes
went ahead of the average saw
ings in the United States last
year.
Assets at the close of busi-
ness Dec. 81, 1853, totalled
$9,499, $4,000 for the three banks.
In comparison, the year 1852
totalled $8,3O6,853 for the
three banks,
Following is the list of total
assets of each of the financial
institutions at the close of bust
ness for the year 1854: The Far
mers 81 Merchants bank, $3,795,-
1906; The First National bank,
$S,0$S SO 40, and The Caldwell
Building & Loan company,
$2,549, ,038.36.
The year just closed fell
$122,213.00 short of equalIing
that for 1853 in the total assets
of all three banks. But by the
same token, 1854 was $570. .929. .03
more than for the same period
in 1852.
This would tend to indicate a
sharp increase over the three
year period with definite
leveling off for 1854 as compared
to 1858.
The assets of the three insti-
tutions in 1853 were as follows:
The Farmers & Merchants bank,
S4, 1885, ,565.8 80; The First National
bank, $3,256,O53.95; and the Cald-
well Building & Loan Company,
$2,104,376.16.
