MR. DEPOSITOR:
We invite you to Deposit your funds
in this bank for the reason that all depositors
are protected by the Depositors’ Guarrantee
Fund of the State of Nebraska.
That the Deposits are amply protected
i in State Banks was exemplified in the failure
of the State Savings Bank of Superior, Ne
braska, a few months ago. Shortly after the
bank closed the depositors were paid in full,
| together with interest up to the time the bank
suspended payment.
At the same time the First National
Bank of Superior failed and up to this time |
I the depositors have not received a cent, and \
prospects of ever receiving a substantial por
tion of their deposits are not very bright.
The harvest of the farmers and stock
men is now at hand and they will soon be dis
posing of their products and will want to de
posit their surplus funds.
Kindly keep this bank in mind, as this
is the only bank in O’Neill operating under the
| Guarrantee Law of the State of Nebraska.

hraska. Samples of blood were drawn
from 130 animals, and five mares were
found to be infected and six
showed traces of the disease. A
hurried meeting of the live stock sani
tary board was called and all the stal
lion inspectors were instructed to draw
blood from animals that might be suf
fering from the ailment. Railway
agents have been instructed not to ac
cept horses unaccompanied by a per
mit from stations in Grant, Hooker,
Thomas, Blaine and Cherry counties.
So far no traces of the hoof and
mouth disease have been detected.
Several car loads of cattle however,
were recently shipped from Chicago to
western points and these are being
watched. The South Omaha stock
yards has been notified not to ship
any stock to points where herds are
infected. The states of Maryland,
New York, Michigan, Indiana, Illi
nois, Ohio and Pennsylvania are quar
antined for hoof and mouth disease.
At South Bend, Ind., the live stock
industry has been parlyized.
Such symptoms as sore feet, sore
mouth and extreme glistening slobber
should be at once reported. Hoof
and mouth disease is that most highly
contagious disease known and is trans
mitted from animals to man by con
tact and from the milk of cows.
Children, cats, dogs, rats and mice
and all animals spread the contagion.
In the regions affected the government
men kill all the animals on the farm,
including the mice and rats, and fumi
gate the premises.
In Nebraska, acording to an esti
mate of the secretary of the state
board of agriculture, there are cattle
valued at $125,000,000, horses worth
$110,000,000 and swine and sheep
worth $05,000,00V. Every precaution
should be taken to guard and conserve
this vast industry. The shortage of
meat will increase the value of all
live stock during the coming year and
every safeguard should be thrown
about the animals. Stachmaq can as
sist by cooperating faithfully with the
state and federal officials to keep Ne
braska free from contagious diseases.
