Farmers Bank Surplus Fund has Reached One Half its Capital Stock CAPITAL STOCK... SURPLUS FUND Ree paying its regular dividends, the Farmers Bank has continued to set aside a portion of its yearly earnings to a surplus fund and at present the surplus fund is equal to one half of its capital stock, or $25,000.00. A bank, in order to be in a first class condition, must make money, and the banking institution that is making money is con- tinually becoming stronger and of greater value to its customers.

The End Came Suddenly to ) the | Supreme Court Justice in | His Washington Home. Washington, March 28,—David) | Josiah Brewer, associate justice of | the Supreme Court of the United | States, died to-night at 10:30 o’clock jas the result of a stroke of apoplexy. His death followed within a minute or | two, before he could be carried to his |bed. Mrs. Brewer was with him when the end came. Judge Brewer was 73 years of age. Justice Brewer came to the Su- preme Court of the United States from the federal court in Kansas. He | was the second oldest member of the |court, Justice Harlan only being his senior. He was regarded as the most democratic of all the members of the court, most affable, approachable and accommodating. Editors Calm in Liquor Row. A special from Montgomery City, a few days since, stated that both sides |in the campaign for state-wide prohi- | bition are trying to get the country press to line up for battle. The Missouri country editors are “\asked to devote their news and edi- torial columns to the issues in the campaign without any remuneration. The temperance peaple ask the edi- | tors to use such matter as may be fur- \nished through the county organiza- tion or the W. C. T. U. The wets, through the Iowa Law Enforcement League, ask that plate matter be used by the country editors, which will be sent free of charge, express prepaid. The editors in this part of Missouri say they will act independently, and if either side desires space they must show some willingness to pay. And that is the proper positon. Speakers, lecturers and all others un- der such circumstances are paid for their services, then why not the pub- lisher, who must .meet his pay roll every Saturday night?

Business is improving not only in this country, but in Europe also. Man- ufacturing and trading report better conditions in Great Britain and Ger- many. As goes the United States so goes the world. Civilization seems to move on the strength of American dispatches. The submarines are breaking rec- ords as well as the airships. Popular travel, however, for the present is still confined to the surface of the earth, but is doing its best to rival the air above and the waters under the earth in point of peril. There js no word in the English lan- guage that expresses the criminal de- pravity of the individual debased enough to wreck a passenger train laden with little children, women and men unkr~ > the criminal. —_—————_— Pretende:s w iuiones come too high for the American matrimonial market.
