If good conservation methods
are used, the land yields both
Christmas tree harvests and
later trees for posts and timber.
Service officials said the har-

getting under way in earnest

must be harvested nearer Christ

The high price paid for strate-
gically located Offices of the
National Bank of Washington
has paid off in a big way.
This was emphasized at the
week end as NBW moved its
Shepherd Park and Brookland
branches into large new build
ings for opening tomorrow.
With only two Offices Of its
own, NBW added eight branches
and acquired much larger main
Office by merger with Hamilton
National Bank only IS months
ago. In order to permit the
merger, undisclosed interests
friendly to NBW acquired almost
all Hamilton stock for $110 a
share. a price $50 higher than
any one else would offer.
However, it has become ap-
parent since that time that
acquisition of the Hamilton with
its large and well located main
Office along with nine branches
at key points over the District of

and loans and discounts OF near
y $91 million were $22 million
higher. Capital funds of $18,-

Much of this sensational
growth has come from the new
