Bank Bulletin Vol. 1 January Prospects for Prosperity. It ha? been a lonp time since the future outlook for substantial prosperity appeared so promising as at the openinp of nineteen six teen. There is plenty of capital in the country, and this is the fuel by which business keeps the fires of activity and expansion plowinp. Confidence is everywhere, &nd op timism rules throuphout the land. Althouph out of a clear sky may come a change over nipht, we can well hope for a continuation of the currents that have carried busi ness to the present hiph level. The nation has benefited from larpe crop yields, harvested at a time when prices are higher than in may years. Here is a reserve force of wealth to fortify anj- na tion to meet safely even a serious crisis. In addition, the nation has been favored in being in a position to provide the other half of the world with the necessities of life as well as with instruments of wjr. This business has been of an urgent nature and the profits derived are iarpe. Men who have larpe surpluses in the banks do not feel the pinch of depression as quickly as others J who live from hand to mouth, day by day, and nations are merely a composite makeup of the individu als. For that reason our country will have to suffer more than an ordinary blow to cauw more than a mere pause in our national prog ress. Wealth L'nder Our Feet. There was a Hindu who was de voured with a great lust for dia monds, lie lived on a small farm upon the plsejiy of Deccan.

The peanut crop in Bryan Coun ty, Okla.. produced from 40 to 60 bushels per acre. The crop sells at 50 to r0 cents a bushel, and there is a ready sale for the hay at $8 to $10 per ton, with two tons to the acre. EI In 1915, Nebraska raised over ten millions bushels of as fine po tatoes as can be found anywhere. In Cherry County, the yield was more than one million bushels. Harold C. Johnson of Pleasant Grove, Utah, grew 24.5 tons of beet sugar to the acre, and made a net profit of $47.18 to the acre. Fred Gass of Kit Carson Coun ty, Colorado sold 24 tons of broom corn from 76 acres, that he bought for ?25 an acre a few years ago The crop netted more than $50 a ton, besides 2,000 bushels of seed, worth 50 cents a bushel. What do these results mean? Just this: No man need look to the next county or adjoining state for opportunity. In your back yard, or peihaps in those "back forty acres" may be wealth await ing action on your part. The First Security Bank will be glad to co-operate with you, to find out what opportunities you have, and in confidence, work out such plans as seem good.

The Bethlehem Steel company is willing to take almost any price for armor to prevent ths government from build ing its own plants, if it will adopt Piesident Wibon's five-year prepared r.ess plans, E.

Grace admitted that ms company has sold armor to Russia cheaper than to the United States govern mtr.t.

Grace was asked to furnish proof of this statement, but said that the let ters had been destroyed in a recent fire. . representative Sherwood (dem Ohio) has introduced a house bill to establish a $5,000,000 federal muni tions plant at To'edo, his home city, and Humphrey has proposed a ?5,000 000 appropriation for a naval academy in Washington state. CAN BLOCKADE GERMANY WITHOUT EXPOSING NAVY Washington, D. C, Jan. 19. Three rdmirals of the United States navy today said that if England decides upon an actual blockade of the entire German coast, she can make it legal tnd effective without sending war ships near German ports. The British navy would only have to demonstrate its ability to prevent ahips carrying supplies of any kind from reaching: enemy ports, these of ficers agreed. It could also stop and seize at a distance from Germany all cargoes en route to neutral ports upon suspicion or proof that they were destined for ultimate consump tion in the central empires. The United States followed this course during the civil war, it was ! stated, and would be bound by that precedent. Head the want ads in the Journal. Local News From Tuesday's Dally. George P.
