management, and thoy havo concluded

portunity to tost tho milking qualities of
the Jerseys and Holsteins, as he has a

Henry Elliott, B. R. Taylor and Mr.
Leonard, each taking a few shares of
the capital stock. Tbe bank will be or
ganized under the territorial banking
law with 130,000 capital. This will
