In a farm journal Mr. Garbas sayB. We farmers need awakening to the fact that we have unmistakably reached the period where we must think and plan. I am one of the slow German farmers that had to be shown, and I am now giving my experience that others may profit, for knowledge Is more expensive now than ten years mind which you will get from having your jewels, heirlooms, papers and other valuables securely stored away in one of our Safety Deposit Vaults will be worth many, may times the very small sum the box will cost you. Burglars cannot rob you, fire cannot destroy them and you cannot lose or injure them. We shall gladly take care of your money in our Banking Department The peace ago. years ago I began my farm career. I had an old team and $50. Our furniture was mostly homo-mad- e chairs, cupboard and lounge made from dry goods boxes, neatly cretonne by my covered with ten-cerented We wife. eighty acres. girl Being a boy of good habits, I got all needed machinery and groceries of our home merchants on credit until fall crops were sold. The first year was a wet season and I did not make enough to pay my creditors. I went to each one on date of promise and explained conditions, paying as much as possible, and they all carried the balance over another year. They continued to accommodate me until I was able to buy a forty-acr- e piece of my own. "About the time I owned these few acres the mail order houses began sending me catalogues, ancl gradually I began sending my loose change to them, letting my accounts stand in my home town where I had gotten my accommodation when I needed it. "We then had one of the thriftiest little Tillages in the state good line of business in all branches, merchants who were willing to help an honest fellow over a bad year, and a town full of people who came twice a week to trade or visit Our little country town supported a library, high school, band, ball team and we had a big celebration every year. "A farm near a live town soon doubled in value. I sold my forty acres at a big advance and bought in eighty, gradually adding to it until I had 200 acres of the best land in Iowa I then felt no need of asking favors, and found it easy to patronize the mail order agents that came almost weekly to our door. I regret to say that I was the first in that county to make up a neighborhood bill and send it to a mail order house. Though we got bit once in a while, we got the habit of sending away for stuff. Gradually our merchants lessened their stock of goods for lack of patronage. Finally we began to realize that when we needed a bolt quickly for machinery, or clothing for sickness or death, we had to wait and send away for it which wasnt so pleasant One by one our merchants moved to places where they were appreciated, and men of less energy moved in. Gradually our town has gone down; our business houses are "tacky in appearance, numbers are empty, our schools, churches and walks are going down; we have no band, no library nor ball team. There is no business done in the town, and therefore, no taxes to keep things up. "Twenty-nin- 1 e of Make OUR bank YOUR bank We pay 4 and 5 per cent, interest on Savings State Bank of Brigham City The hotel is closed for lack of travel. Go down to the depot when the train pulls in and you will see the sequel in mail order packages. "Nine years ago my farm was worth 1195 an acre; today Id have a hard matter to sell it at $167 an acre. It is too far from a Jive town so every farmer has said that wants to buy. He wants a place near schools and churches where his children can have I have awakened to the advantages. fact that in helping to pull the town down it has cost me $5,600 in nine Ex. years.
