Financing The Farmer
The farmer's business often needs a little
financial backing if it Is to grow and prosper.
That is one reason why he should have a
Btronj: and willing bank behind him.
It is on important function of this Bank to
give temporary assistance to farmers who seek
it of us, and who have demonstrated their abil
ity to repay the obligation when due.
The best way to establish u credit here is to
carry an account with us let us become ac
quainted with you and you with us.
We cordially invite not only the farmer but
every one who wants to gain ground financially
to do 80.
We now have over nine hundred accounts
on our books,
