SIMONS PHOTOGRAPHER Carlson-Block WILLMAR BANKS WILL PAY 5 ON DEPOSITS Added Inducement to Deposit ing Savings. CashierHong Makes Statement. The three banks of Willmar will oay five per cent on yearly time cer tificates of deposit after Dec. 15. The following statement was handed out for publication by Cashier P. B. Hong, of the Kandiyohi County Bank yesterday: "The habit of thrift, which has been so apparent since the European war 3ommenced, will be given an added mpetus as a result of the action of the local banks in raising the interest rate paid to depositors from four to five per cent. It may seem a small matter in itself, but when considered from the standpoint of the depositor who depends on his income for part or all of his livelihood, it means an increase of 25 per cent in that source of his income. It is not known, of course, just how permanent this ar rangement may be, but it is quite cer tain that it will be some time before the rate will again be reduced, as money is now finding employment at a sufficiently profitable rate, to make this extra disbursement possible. The increase applies to savings deposits and to time certificates for twelve months, the six month certificates bearing four per cent interest as for merly, and becomes effective on the 15th of December."
