Expects to be back on the job again SENATOR THOMAS RANCHERS AND FARMERS PREPARED FOR EMERGENCY, COUNTY KEY RANKER SAYS The plant and equipment of Utah ranches and farms have never been in better condition, and the state's farmers and stockmen are prepared to meet any emergency that may lie ahead, according to Claude J. Empey, Cashier of the Carbon Emery Bank, who represents the Utah Bankers Association as a county key banker. "One of the best indications of this is that Utah agriculture borrowed less from banks during 1949 than during 1948," Mr. Empey said. Reporting on the ninth national survey of agriculture lending made Commission by the Agricultural of the American Bankers Associys take the snotlightthis week in the Future Citizens ation, Mr. Empey noted that there an.

It shows that farmers and stock-me- n are wisely avoiding excessive debt and are holding on to their reserves to meet any i emergency." Mr. Empey stated that in 1949, the last full year of operation, the 53 Utah banks serving agri-- i ultural communities loaned $36,- -i SOOtOOO to 1368 farmers and ranchers to meet all types of financial needs. This is a decline fmm the agricultural loans to- taling $56,918,000 made by banks during 1948.
