better feeling based upon a bet-

STROUD, Okla., Nov. 24.-In view
of low prices for all farm products,
bankers are looking forward to a
prosperous year for their business.
Fred 1L Turner, cashier of the Ken-
drick State Bank, of Kendrick,
Okla., in commenting on the situa-
tion said:
"The coming year will undoubtedly
be a good year for the banking busi-
ness. Thousands of farmers through-
out the state are nearlng bankruptcy
and will be compelled to secure
loans to carry them over another |
year. Many will borrow money this
year who never borrowed before
and, unless the unexpected happens,'
we will have loaned up to our limit '
by early spring."
