Greatest Need Now
To Use Good Seed
•Shortage of labor is now oue of
the great problems facing farmers,
consequently it is necessary to cut
down the amount of work involved
in producing satisfactory crops.
Under the circumstances there is
grave danger of weeds increasing to
such an extent that they may be-
-come a more serious problems on
fs0.tlTated land than ever before.
The production of all crops is large-
ly a battle with weeds. As weeds
compete wiltcrops for water, light
and the mineral nutriments found
in the soil, the argument that a few
more weeds cannot make any differ-
ence to the resulting crop shows a
lack of knowledge of the coo-
petition whichthe crops have to
meet in weed infested fields.

MRS. JENNINGS had been just managing to
keep her family going. But things were look-
ing brighter at last. Now with the children
able to help with the housework, she had
applied for the post of school teacher
and had been accepted.
But that meant she needed suitable clothes
and clothes cost money.
She took her problem to the manager of
her bank. On the strength of her ability and
character, he arranged a loan of $80. And so
it was that she was able to take the position
and greet her first class proudly. She paid
off the loan after six months at a cost in
interest of only $2.40.
This is a true story. Only the name has
been altered. It is typical of hundreds of
human dramas in which the bank manager
has been privileged to play a helping role.

banks and bank staffs. At the same time more than one-thlrd
