Every man who is more than ordinarily prosperous, owes his good fortune partly to his bank; to the fact that they have been willing: to loan him money, for it takes money to make money. We make short time loans on personal property or security. Many limes this accommodation will enable a farmer to double his profits by holding his stock longer and by doing business on a bigger scale. ' You must realize that in making loans we take into consider ation the success of an enterprise. Having made a study of li nancial matters, you can realize the fact that our advice in itself may be very valuable to you.
