MAY M, H«. the banker and THE FARMER The other clay The Sewn had a ytory about two Goldsboro, banker#, Messrs. Kyle and Ed ward*. having an interview with Mr. Oliver J. Sand* of Rich moad, the executive manager of the Tobacco Growers Ais<xia-. tion, and the reasons this gen tleman gave for having become interested in co-operative mar keting. Briefly stated, Mr. Sands gave as his reason that he believed that co-operative marketing was. a widespread and aound movement that meant good to the agricultural indus try ami should therefore be en couraged as other sound ness propositions. This seems to be the view qf bankers gen erally throughout the South. Speaking on this subject the ( Charlotte Observer says: Who wat it said the Southern bpnk •r* Srs not the frienda of the farm art? Her* wa have word from Ar kansas that the Little Rock Clearing House bat extended ' a credit of $3,- 000,060, or as much more as may be noodad, to the Arkansas Cotton Grow art’ Association to enable that organ isation to adquaely finance the mar keting of next Fall's crop. The axi?; elation had financed itself to the lim it of its ability, but found that its op * Potion the coming season would re quire between $6 - 000.000 and $6,000.- 0M in all. The rase being slated to tbe Utti* Rock jankers, tbe necessary credit guarani** was at once forthcom ing. Tbe Arkansas cotton growers thus found their financial problem solved offhand and hankers alt over the Booth are doing tho same thing by the farmer. * Bankers have always been friends of the farmer as best they could be. But until quite recently farming as an indus try was not in shape to be help mi like other business enterprise! es. The business of farming was not organized like other enter prises and the security of the business itself was not suffiti eiit for banking purposes. To be sure an individual farmer could borrow money upon person security but the expectations that come from a going business was not a sufficient collateral. In otber words, a bank might lend money to a mercantile or manufacturing business upon the reasonable assurance that a successful business properly conducted afforded a security beyond the actual collateral which might be put up. Such loans were short, quickly pay- J able, and the business under pretty close scrutiny of the bank.' The farmer could not come into this class for two reasons. One was that he could not keep money on deposit. An other was that be did not do much active business with the bank. Another was that he needed his loan for a long time. Still another, and the most po tent .was, that his business it self, running as it did, the risk of the failure of crops, or the total collapse of the market af ter the crop was made, afford ed little certainty of his ability to come out at the end of the year in shape to make his loan good. Now, co-operative mar keting has for one of its aims the elimination of price failure e on stable crops. It will even tually’mean the control of pro duction and the keeping of it within the needs of demand. When the stable products like tobacco and cotton and wheat become so organized that the bulk pf the crop tnay lie held off the market until demand becomes reasonable, Ahe going value of agriculture as a busi ness will somewhat approximate that of other businesses, anti thus have ita value as collater al. Then, too, every effort is being made to direct govem . ment finance towards the aid of the farmer in away that will take care of his need for longer time loans. All this is tending towards making agri culture a business of greater se curity and certainty, and then fore In better shape for bank able purposes. Tha banks as a rule set* these things and are doing all in thuir power to aid the several move manta. In the south where our I - I "■ ' ... v. . . I prosperity depends so much up | on agriculture they see that it imoans a growing general pros -1 perity and therefore of benefit to the banks as well as to all other business. The banks have been as good a frtend to tbe - farmer as they could be aiai , now they are helping in the i general * improvement which 1 is intended to anablo them to do more. CHURCH BUILDING IN THE SOUTH One of the most notatde facts of the time* is the great activ ity in church buiidtug in the South. The Manufacturers' Record last week gave a com prehensive summary of its in vestigation into church-build ing activities in the South, one Interesting point brought out lieing the fact that within the short space*, of eight months, as many w ,1860 church build lings have been completed or started in the Southern States, each involving a cost of over SIO,OOO, the whole representing a cost of over $23,000,000. The improvements to ( existing churches brings the total . for that period up to $25,000,000. But The Record is advising jt» readers that even these figures, great as they are, do not begin to tell the whole story, for there are many church buildings, large and small, for w hich plans are being made anti for which a considerable proportion of the money for construction has been raised. Indead, plans have been announced for scores of churches involving an aggre gate expenditure of millions of I dollars which will be under way in the near future, but the cost of which is not included in the foregoing figures. It is disclosed that during the past 17 weeks contracts have been let in the South for churches at an aggregate cost of $6,776,000, and as the final cost always largely exceeds the contract price, these figures could be easily increased by 50 per cent and still be conserva tive, for these estimates as to $25,000,000 now going into church buildings, or the $6,700,- 000 of contracts in the last 17 weeks, do not include the cost of equipment of) furnishings or other expenses, but simply the contract price for the buildings themselves. In addition to the 36Q church ! buildings reported as represent ing, with the small structures, a cost of $25,000,000, there are scores of churches which have been completed, or which were started in the Summer or Fall of 1921 and which are not in cluded in these figures. Many structures are so costly and of Much an irnpoHing architectural nature that they have been in course of construction for 18 months or more. A great many of the churches now building are l*ut a part of the ultimate unit, for some congregations are sim ply erecting the foundations for the main structure, or Sunday School buildings which will be used until the main structure has been completed. In this work of church con struction in the Southern States Texas loads ami North Caro lina is second, but the lead of Texas is not grtqjt. During the eight months in question the in vestment in church building in this State amounted to $2,934,- 000; in Texas it was $3,975,400. The number of new churches involved in the North Carolina report was 43. In Asheville alone, the value of new church construction was $750,000. Tex as built 44 churches, 11 of which coat more than SIOO,OOO each, while Dallas built a church\hat by itself called for an exlkind-1 iture of $850,000. The B#tiHt Church at Houston is to rtj!pre*J sent a sum of s6oo;oO<rTbe new Baptist Church at Shreve port, costing half a million, con tains features heretofore un known in church architecture. A 10-story tower, together with connecting rooms in the annex, furnishes quarters for a Sun day achbol of 3,000 and 12 young peoples societies. One of the first radio broadcasting sta tions in the world owned and operated by a church is install ed in the tower, ant', sermons, lortures, musical concerts, etc., will hi broadcasted daily.

A gymnasium is loiat r cd on one of the upper floors I -in the tower; a fully equipped : nursery is iu the basement, un der the supervision of a nqrse who will care for the children I while their parents are at > church or while shopping. A din ring room will serve lunch to several huudred 'working girls daily.
