Oregon bankers lead those of
all other states in the consecutive |
years they have made the honor
roll of bunker-farmer cooperation,
according to it reent tabulation
made by the American Bankers
association. The requirements for I
achieving the honor roll are that
the banks participate in 4-H club
work, cooperate with county ag­
ricultural agents, have representa­
tives at agricultural meetings, ex­
pend money to further agricul­
tural work, and designate key
bankers in charge of banker-far­
mer cooperation in each county.
Oregon has made the honor roll
for 12 consecutive years. Georgia
has been on the honor roll 11
years and North Dakota has 10
