The comptroller of the currency
under whose department the Nation
al man kg of the country are operat
ing, is taking over the affairs of the
First 'National bank of this city, with
the sending of a receiver from hip
office to take over the untangling of
the First National bank of this city
which has been closed cince Ia&t
Tuesday evening.
The directors of the bank voted to
have the bank placed in the hands
of the federal examiners on last Tues
day and late that afternoon William
Wilson of Omaha arrived to take over
the work of checking up the bank
and attempting to get its affairs in
shape.
There has been a general movement
to get the bank affairs in a shape
where depositors might secure settle
ments of their affairs in the bank,
but which has not fully been carried
out and which will probably be taker.
up by the representative of the comp
troller of the currency on his ar
rival here in the next few days.
There has been no official state
ment made of the assets or the lia
bilities of the bank frcm the repre
sentatives of the federal banking de
partment here.
The depositors of the bank have
been very greatly interested in the
proKress of the work of getting the
bank affairs in shape end they are
anxiously awaiting some definite
statement as to the exact condition of
affairs and what they may expect
from the settlement of the bank troubles.

Hog Lot Sanitation.
Twenty-six farmers followed this
plan, 208 brood sows raised 416 pigs)
more than the average sow wliicn'
raises less than six pigs. Tula would
make the litters from these sows sell
for $50 more than, . the average sow,
or $10,400 which; should be profit.
Culling.
Fortv-Bix flocks consisting of 8,-
800 birds, 2.507 were culled out. This
saved these farmers $2,500 because
one hen eats $1 worth of feed. It
would have cost them $34 0 to have a
nrofeEsional cull them. Besides 77
farms were visited where the poultry
was s ck. S xtv of these farms were
found to have trouble with worms. In
all cases a remedy wa found or the
loss has been stopped. On these CO
farms there were' $.000 chickens; a

900 chickens, and. their value would
have been $900.
