A St. Joseph Man Gathers Statistics
to Discover Where the Money of the
West Is Going—Live Within Their
Means.
St. Joseph, Mo.. June 29— Fifteen
million dollars spent for automobiles
and more than 118,000,000 sent else-
where for the purchase of land, tells
what the West Is doing with some of
its money, according to information
compiled by Graham G. Lacey, a
banker of this city, who has obtained
replies to a serieB of questions ad-
dressed to more than 600 bankers in
eastern Kan*as, eastern Nebraska,
northwest Missouri and southern Iowa.
Are Buying Land.
Reports from 251 banks showed that
approximately $18,000,000 had gone
out of their section for the purchase
of lands in other states, 97 banks re-
ported that some money bad gone out
of their section for such purpose, 237
banks reported that a heavy amount
had gone out of their section for such
purpose, but they could not give an
actual estimate. Only 29 bapks stat-
ed that no money had gone out of
their neighborhood for the purchase
of lands in other states.
For .automobiles, 427 banks report
that a total of $15,000,000 has been
spent while only 17 banks report that
no money has gone out of their sec
tion for this purpose.
Out of 629 replies received, 293, or
47 per cent, stated that agricultural
conditions were good; the remainder,
or 53 per cent, reported such condi-
tions as fair only. A good wheat crop
was reported by 20 per cent of the re-
plies, fair by 38 per cent, and bad by
42 per cent.
More Real Estate Loans Now.
Fifty-one per cent reported that the
banks were carrying more real estate
loans for their customers at this time
than they were carrying a year ago,
27 per cent reported less and 22 per
cent about the same as a year ago.
Thirty-three per cent reported larg-
er deposits than a year ago, 53 per
cent smaller and 14 per cent about the
same, l-ighty per cent reported high-
er loans, 12 per cent lower, 8 per cent
the same. Only 8 per cent are buy
ing "commercial paper.
Are Living Better.
To the question, "Are the people
living within their means, or are con
traeting debts for the purchase of lux
uries?" the general consensus of re-
plies indicated that the farming com
munities are living well within their
means, although all living was upon
a considerably higher plane than for-
merly, and the general standard of
living was considerably higher. It
also seemed to be the general opin-
ion that where automobiles had been
purchased by farmers it was largely
by those who could afford to buy them
and to pay cash for them.

' A certain maga-
zine will be read
this month by
more than 1,000,000
American men
and women.
Some will read it because they would not miss „
"Chantecler—Act II" (Rostand's wonderful drama,
in English) for ten times the cost.
Others will read it for the thrilling chapter of
Peary's Own Story—an instalment that is enjoyable
and convincing without reference to preceding
chapters. This instalment PROVES PEARY
GOT THERE. Most Americans will want to
read this if only to be fair to a great man.
Thousands of men will read in it a most vivid and
dramatic chapter in Russell's "Millionaire Mill
series—the remarkable history of the Southern
Pacific Railroad. The country is torn asunder over
the railroad problem.
Women in every nook and corner of the United
States will buy it because of Rheta Childe Dorr's
enlightening article about giving a fighting chance
to defective children in schools and elsewhere.
Fiction lovers will buy it because they will
revel in its wealth of extra fine stories-
stories for every age and every taste—in-
cluding "The Stolen Code" by Arthur
Stringer—the first of "The Adventures of
in Insomniac"; "His Wife and His
Work," a beautiful love story by Rupert
Hughes; 'The Watchdog" by P. G. Wode-
house; "Excess Baggage," a rousing base-
ball story by Bruce Farson and several
more.
