Show IRON COUNTY BANK DECLARES 12 PERCENT Not a bad year was 192S for the Bank of Iron County. Though they have had better ones, they were able this year to declare a twelve per cent dividend besides adding to their reserve' and reducing the book value j of their furniture and fixtures. J As a matter of fast the report to ! the stockholders on Wednesday evening even-ing when their annual stockholders' meeting was held, indicated that the year's earnings had been only slightly slight-ly less than sixteen per cent. Some of these earnings are represented in interest not yet collected, however. Loans have been unusually low during dur-ing the year, due largely to the disposal dis-posal of so much stock a year ago "- on account of the feed situation, which accounts for the earnings not being larger.
