The company transacts a general banking business, receiving deposits for checking accounts, the depositor issuing checks against his moneys in the bank. This is a great convenience when safety and cer tainty of receipts for payments are considered. The bank keeps the account, balancing the same at stated times, returning the checks issued to the depositor which become receipts for bills paid, showing when paid and the payee's name thereon. It also issues Certificates of Deposit on which it pays as liberal a rate of interest as is consistent with good banking when left in the bank a sufficient length of time to warrant such payment. It pays interest on such deposits each full thirty days in addition to the first six months up to and including twelve months. It also pays interest on Savings accounts ad ding the interest to the principal twice each calendar year, viz.: January 1 and ulv 1, thus compounding the interest twice each year. A n .

Nicely situatetl on the Lake Krie Railway seven miles northwest of Plymouth it is the ideal of the cosn-, comfortable and beautiful life, as well as of substantial business activity. The numerous large and fine shade trees, the many good resi dences neatly kept and painted, the strong frame and cement block busi ness houses, the cement walks are most pleasing to the observer, andj the splendid citizenship of the place have the air of comfortable pros-j perity. i Graded schools and a high school, held in a substantial briek building, and three churches, the United Urethren. Holiness Christian, andj the Methodist church, provide good: educational and religions advan-! tages for the community. Activities Are Large. The activities of this town of r M.

In addition to all these, which are certainly sufficient to make a j aroodly little town, there is develop- in? here on the edpre of Tyner what may easily one day become a sreat business in the manufacture of peat for fuel and lubricating oils. This enterprise is told of in a separate article and is worthy the attention of all the county. Property is High. Here in Tyner they say property is almost as high as in Plymouth, arising from the desirability of the place as a residence village. The place is clean, healthful, substantial, surrounded by a good farming com munity and has not even a "blind tiger" to disturb the peace and hap piness of the community. The peo ple are both good and intelligent, and this is what makes a desirable community in "which to live. The business of the place is fine. Agent? Ernest Huddleson of the Lake Erie states that in his opinion there is more freight business coming into and going out of Tyner than at any town its size ou the road. Up wards of fifty cars of lire stock are shipped from here annually. The general stores do a thriving busi ness, as is witnessed by their num ber. The Trading business enter prises of this place are represented here in special write-ups or by ad vertisements. Tle general public and the people of the Tyner com munity especially will take keen in terest in reading about tbese busi ness institutions. An Onion Center. Tyner is one of the onion centers of the county. Ten years ago Mr. A. E. Fink believ-ed there was money to be made in onions, and followed up his faith by planting, a few acres. It was a hard job. People made fun of him. They thought it beneath them to get down on tbeir knees between two rows of onions and weed them. Help for this work was almost impossible to get. Men stood about the town do ing nothing, yet would refuse to "weed" cnions. The young people also wre hard to induce to take up the work. 7. .... rl a foot corn cutter. This will amuse some farmers, and it is hard to un derstand what the thing is until you see it. It is a knife something like a small scythe, which is fastened to a brace for attachinr to the Ipt. The corn cutter walks along and bv a stroke of the foot cuts off a whole . hill at once. He lias his arms en tirely free to handle the corn. With ! this knife it is said a man can cut casiiv lt) shucks a dav. The knife is M-ld by Uralley Bros, for tmly $1.00. Dr. A. A. Thompson PHYSICIAN & SURGEON TVINER, :: INDIANA L. E. & W. Station at Tyner. It was enough to make a man of ordinary determination give up the task and go at other business. But Mr. Fink stuck to it. Today he is the big onion, man of Polk township, and those men who refused to help him ten years ago are now them selves among the onion growers of the township and are making good money where before they were do ing nothing. 'The onion business succeeded and has made an impor tant industry for this community. For seven years Mr. Fink has been an onion buyer and shipper. He also sells onion seed, handling that well-known kind put up by Jerome B. Rice. This se-ed has al ways given good satisfaction and can be bought of Mr. Fink. Among the important onion grow ers of this community are Frank Eisenmenger, M. Thayer, Mrs. Lou Snyder, John Wolff, U. X. VanPher son, Simon Culp, Leslie Hill, Will Goheen, "Will Kil!an, "Walter Kilian, Levi Stoneburner, Chas. Stonebur- ner, Wm. Morris, J. M. Schroeder, Wm. O'Keefe and A. E. Fink, wio continues the work started under such difficulties ten years ago. These growers raise from one to ten acrea each, which makes a fine annual in come for the community. "Among those who make monev here from pickles are the following: U. S. Klingerman had in three acres this vear and from it he received $487.18. Wm. Walterhouse on 2 acres made the goodly sum of $.153.17 Bruce Johnson from one acre got $194.60. August Johnson from of an acre received in good cash $113.12 and Jesse Schroeder got $50.81 out of 4 of an acre. Bradley Bros. Fine Shop. Bradley Brothers (four of them) have here in Tyner a shop which is not only a credit to the town but to the whole county. They have equip ped a complete and good blacksmith shop, woodwork shop, tin shop, re pair shop, machine shop and garage. The nature and quality of their work can be seen at once by the statement that they get work for their shop from Groverton, Walker ton, North Liberty and even from Plymouth and South Bend. As one of the brothers said, "there is noth ing vre can not do." The shops cover a space 50x80 feet, and the work done covers all kinds of idacksmithing, horseshoe ing, tin work, iron work, leather work, wood work, repairing, mach ine work and the numerous things iooked after in a good automobile garage. On autos they do tho best of work, from the least up to the straightening of axles. In addition to the shop work Bradley Bros, keep for sale tool han dles, oil, grease, gasoline, pump sup plies, stove pipe, bolts, well pipe, auto and machine repairs and sup plies. They also operate a feed mill. Two gasoline engines give power for the business. One or more of the brothers is alwa)s at the shop, so that anyone wanting service is sure to be waited on promptly. An interesting thing about this firm is the invention and maufacture of Law Enforcement. I am satisfied that the great prob lem before the American people to day is the problem of law enforce ment. It outweighs ever other consideration. Do you know that America is black-listed in every other country with reference to this one matter? There were over 1,100 murders in the United States last year. There were 350 murders in the city of Chicago more murders in Chicago last year than London has had in the last fifty years, and Chicago is just one-third the size of London.
