We wish to announce to the public that this bank has been accepted as a member of the Federal Reserve Bank of District No. 7, of Chicago.
Our Officers and Directors after careful study of the Federal ^Reserve Banking System decided to apply for admittance therein.
In becoming a member bank in this Strong Government System we
are simply following our policy of SAFETY, SECURITY and SERVICE,
The Federal Reserve System puts us in a STRONGER position
than ever. In addition to the excellent protection afforded by The Banking Department of the State of Michigan, we also now enjoy the Government's Federal Reserve Protection. This gives our customers a double
guarantee of safety, security and service and puts us in a position where
we can offer greater advantages to our patrons than ever before.
The Federal Reserve Act was without doubt the best financial
legislation ever enacted in this country. It has been in operation for over
four years, during which time the largest financial operations in the
history of our country have been .accomplished without the sign of financial disturbance or without inconvenience to private borrowers. The
fact that the largest and strongest State Banks in Michigan as well as the
National Banks have joined the system is the best proof of its success.
In order to qualify for membership in the Federal Reserve System a bank must of necessity be strong and secure. Full information of
the character of its securities and management must be submitted to the
Members of The Federal Reserve Board for their approval. It is, therefore, particularly pleasing to the officials of this bahk to have been \so
promptly, accepted to membership. It also places us in a decidedly comfortable position to know that- we hold membership in a System composed of the LARGEST and STRONGEST BANKS of the country all
placing their reserves in huge reservoir on which each may draw in
time of need. .    .   -.-"   ***;

FIND BACTERIA AID
GKOWTH OF LEGUMES
In the Spring, we find many things around*] the home or farm
which need a coat af paint or varnish, to preserve the material and
improve the looks. But paints and varnishes have gone so high in
cost that many put off the painting. We can help yau out this spring
and save you the biggest .part or your waint and' varnish bill.
We have a quantity of Paints, Varnish-Stains, Enamels, Etc., in
cans which have become shopworn, and which we do not wish to
continue on our shelves with fresh goods. These are good standlard
brands, the assortments fairly complete in the varnishes, not quite as
complete in the paints, but if you have a piece of furniture to refin-
ish, porch furniture to fix up, a floor to varnish, a piece of machiii1-
ery or a small building to repaint, these goods will do the* work at
less than half present costs. ._,'
Come in and look over our paint and varnish^bargaiai counter,
you will b|6 surprised at the values we offer, .-f-i" ,-- «

"Let the little microbies help you"
the department of bacteriology of the
Michigan Agricultural college is saying to Michigan farmers who are
thinking this season of going in for
legume crops—included in which are
the clovers, alfalfa, soy beans and cow
peas. The college, to encourage
wider adoption of .the practice of inoculating the seed of these crops, or
tjhe ground in which the seed is to
be planted, is distributing cultures of
bacteria from its bacteriological laboratory to farmers, at cost.
"For some years," an announcement
tirom the department of bacteriology
declares, "this department has been
making careful inquiries to ascertain
the effectiveness of inoculation in
encouraging the growth of legume
qrops, and while the information obtained has not been as comprehensive
and enlightening as might be wished
for, the facts accumulated are nevertheless of much value.
"As a resuljt of these inquiries it is
recognized that inoculation for alfalfa is essential, and that unless a
farmer knows he can secure abundant
nodule formation in the soil without
artificial inoculation, inoculation
should be practiced also i'or clovers,
vetch, caw peas and soybeans.
"Cultures for inoculating the seed
or soiL can be secured from this department at cost. Inquiries should
be addressed to the department of
bacteriology, East Lansing."

Nearly Complete List of Those Taking Place in Saline and Suburbs
The springtime has for ages been
looked upon' as a time for many
changes of both properties and people.
By dieath, poor health, dissatisfaction
and the accumulation of wealth, many
become desirous to change residence
or occupation, as a rule with a view
to better themselves and condition,
and while some of these prove beneficial there is a certain percentage to'
be regularly counted qn the other
side. It would be most natural to
suppose that there would be a dliffer-
ence in the business of the real estate
market according to the-general conditions of the country and the money
market, b,ut these seem to play a
small part, andi the spring months of
191S have proved no exception to this
common custom. The transfers and
shifts in and around this village have
fully reached, if not exceeded, the
average year opening rush.
