Delaware banks we're serving
farmers with more credit and
other financial services than
any group of lenders at the
beginning of this year, accord
ing to Howard S. Wagner, pres
ident of the Delaware Bankers
Association, and cashier, Peo-
pies Bank, Harrington. During
1861, the states banks main
tanned their leadership in ayr
iculuural credit services.
Based on the 2lst annual farm
lending summary of the Agri-
cultural Committee of The A
merican Bankers Association,
MIR. Wagner reported that at
the beginning of the year, Del
aware banks we're helping farm
ers with Sl8-million in loans,
II per cent more than a year
previous. This total included
$o-million in production loans
and Sl2 million in farm mort
cages. AT the same time, $434-
thousand in farm loans was held
by life insurance companies;
$3-million by the Federal Land
Banks; S3-million by Produc-
tion Credit Associations; and
S2o3-t thousand in non-real-e-
state loans plus $564-thousand
in real estate loans by the
Farmers Home Administration.
About o6 per cent of the pro-
duction credit extended by lend
ing institutions to Delaware far
mers came from banks.
MIR. Wagner said that 'bank-
ers in Delaware, as we'll as
throughout the country, are
taking realistic look at agri-
culture, appraising it from the
standpoint of its total contri-
button to the economy. Through
the years the agricultural in
dustry, as a part of the total
economy, has remained relat-
lively stable, with the off the

his career, heads a surprisingly
large field of IS 3-year-olds
named for tomorrow's eighth
running Of the $3,O00-added
Governors Gold Cup at Bowie.
The Pet Bully colt has won
both his starts this year, includ-
ing the George Washington
Stakes, and is the early choice
for the 7-furlong event.
Dicks Pet carries 118 pound.
although top weight of 121 will
be toted by Donald G. Ross

victory last year in Woodbine's
Grey Handicap.
Opposing this duo are Jack

With Is starters the Gold

winner will earn $23,107.50.
Dicks Pet, who will be ridden
by Joe Culmone, has been
rested since his George Wash
ington victory in which he
turned back five of tomorrow'S
rivals. In his last victory, the
$4,000 yearling buy led all the
way to the 6 furlongs in muddy
going to repel Daddy r. by a
length in the good time of
1.13B.
Daddy R., who is coupled
with Proud Fox, is the likely
chief reliance of the Rice entry
and figures to give Dicks Pet
his principal contention. Daddy
R. was third in his only other
start this year. Both starts
were over muddy tracks anG
last year the Olympia colt was
at his best over fast footings
when he accounted for two VIC
tories and finished second in
