ments of the two Caldwell Banks
published In this issue they
have a combined total resource*
of $1,845,188.04, and deposits to-
taling $858,841.67, being the
best statements shown byjthese
institutions in a long while, and
}ahowing that both are being well
managed andaré alao well pa-
tronised by the people who have
learned to deposit their funda In
the banks instead of keeping it
around home. Caldwell is justly
proud of her banks, and they in

liberal patronage accorded them
by the public. You can always
get accommodated at either of
the banks when you need help.

them. No town can show a bet-
ter or more clever set of bank-
