imr&x-x&ammmMoney to Loan!
A demand for money in the Eastern
markets has caused a number of farm
loan companies to raise their rates or
to withdraw entirely from this terri-
tory. Our companies are still in the field
and we are making loans at the old
rate of 8 per cent.
If you need a loan on your farm or
city property we will be pleased to
have you make us a call.

Cut This Out and Take it With You

disappointing and unsatisfactory. The
afa way is to cut this out and take

A. Whilchurst President of State Board of Agriculture:
June 3 1920
We hap just received the following inter frm J.
To the Bankers of Oklahoma:
Within the next sixty days we will harvest in Oklahoma a small grain crop in
excess of 75000000 bushels. More than 80 per cent of the cropwill have to be stor-
ed on the farms of this stateuntil the rail roads can move it to markets. Last year
we had 15000 cars on track for the new crop. This year we won't have more than
one tenth as many.
Most of our grain elevators are from 20 to GO per cent full of last years' crop.
If the railroads empty them in time for the new harvest they will be doing mighty
well. Our present storage capacity will equal about 20 per cent of the prospec-
tive crop.
Don't you think it would be good business for you to call in your farmer frineds
and insist that they must make arrangements to take care of their crop in weath-
er proof way? If they should be among the lucky few who will be able to find
cars or elevator space no harm will be do'ne if they should happen to be among
those who fail then both you and your customer will be happy you heeded our
warning.
Won't you ask your patrons to build a safe temporary storage which can be
set away from other buildings which costs little money and on which he can carry
insurance for his and your protection?
With the odds 8 to 2 that.your patrons will be among those who must hold or
lose their grain don't you think it important enough to spend time in organizing
your neighborhood along these lines?
Won't you let us hear from you at yo ur earliest.convenience telling us just
what you are planning to do? Yours very truly
w .1. . """' J. A. WH1TEHURST
we will be glad to .loan our customers money with which to buy material for this
purpose.
