' By Peter Radfor0. One of the greatest opportunities fn the business life of the nation lies 1 in practical co-operation of the country banks with the farmer in building agriculture and the adventure is laden with greater possibilities than any forward movement now before the American public. A few bankers have loaned money to fanners at a low rate of Interest, and ofUlmes without compensation, to buy blooded livestock, .build siloa, fertilize the land, secure better seed, bold their products for ? betetr market price, etc. The banker In contributing toward improving the grade of livestock; the quality of the seed and the fertility of the soil, plants in the agricultural life of the community a fountain of profit, that, like Tennyson's brook, runs on and on forever. Community Progress a Bank A Met. The time fas when money loaned on such a oasis would severely test the sanity of the banker; such transactions woukl pain the directors like a blow in the face. .A cashier who ' would dare to cast bread upon waters that did not return buttered side up in time for annual dividends would . i have to give way to a more capable . man. ' This does not necessarily mean .. that the bankers are getting any better Cir that the milk of human kindnesss is being ftnblbed more freely by our financiers. It indicates that the bankers are getting wiser, becoming more able fln' anciers and the banking industry more i competent. The vision of the builder Is i' crowding out the spirit of the pawnbroker. A light has been turned on r a new world of Investment and no usurer ever received as large returns '? ?> ? on timmt UU U1V ftUWWWAAVAM. H0 kuvww " sive bankers, who made loans to '< uplift iadustry. The bankers have always been liberal city builders, but - they are bow building agriculture. A Dollar With Soul, t It <8 refreshing in this,, strenuous . commercial illfe to And so many dollars with souls. When a dollar is ap, proached to perform a task that does ^ ; not directly yield the highest rate of F interest, we usually hear the rustle ' of the eagle's wings as it soars up- t i ward; when a dollar is requested to return at the option of the borrower, ^ It usually appeals to the Goddess of I Liberty for its contractural rights; when a dollar Is asked to expand in 11 _ volume to suit the requirements of ^ industry, It usually talks solemnly of ' its redeemer, cut* soui material nm> v i entered into the vaults of our banks g t and rate, time and -volume have a r new basis of reckoning In so far as the ability of some of the bankers permit them to co-operate In promot- a Ing the business of farming. God Almighty's Nobtemen. t These bankers axe God Almighty's noblemen. Heaven lent earth the ^ .; spirit of these men and the angels | will help them roll in place the . cornerstones of empires. They are not philanthropists; they are wise c . bankers. The spirit of the builde* f has given them a new vision, and 1 wisdom has visited ^upon them buat ness foresight. ' i | The cackle of the hen, the low h , j of kine and the rustle of growing . j crops echo in every bank vault in the I nation and the shrewd banker knows 11 I that he can more effectively increase u 11 his deposits by putting blue blood in "I the veins of livestock; quality in j< 1! the yield of the soil and value into , j agricultural products, than by busi- v , \ ness handshakes, overdrafts and [ gaudy calendars. o . | Taking the community into part- jj ! nersbip with the bank, opening up a " j ledger account with progress, making "! thrift and enterprise stockholders and : the prosperity of the country an v - asset to the bank, put behind It ? stability far more desirable than a j( [ letterhead bearing the names of all the distinguished citizens of the com| munity. The bank is the financial , power house of the community and blessed is the locality that has an ' up-to-date banker.
