WHAT A KEY BANKER
DIB FOR MIS COUNTY
The farmers at one county in Ten
nessee are receiving 5-100,COO addi
tional annual income from new fang
enterprises started since 1921! through
the efforts of a ‘‘key haulier" and the
county agent, according to estimates
from the Tennessee College of Agri
culture. A "key banker” is a part of the
state bankers’ association voluntary
field force cooperating with tko Ameri
can Bankers Association in its nation
wide plan for bringing about better
agricultural conditions through com
bined banker-farmer effort. Now pro
jects started in this particular county
nro tobacco, Irish potato and cabbage
production for cash crops, and /Iai ---y
ing and poultry raising for livestock.
Tho key banker, looking for some
thing to do to better lii3 community,
first attempted to procure a county
agent but was unablo to get tho county
to make tho necessary appropriation,
so lie and other leading citizens made
up the requisites funds through private
subscription among farmers and busi
ness men and an agent was employed.
Up until 1920 grain was the prin
cipal farm production in tho county.
Tho banker recognized the disadvant
ages of this. It afforded a low cash
income, and the laud was too hilly and
rough for profitable grain raking. His
idea was to introduce cash crops that
offered more return per acre and were
hotter fitted to the county. It was de
ckled that the county should stand
ardize on tho Green Mountain potato
and to market it in carload lots.
Through his bank lie sponsored tlie
buying of a car of certified sied
potatoes, lie likewise bought noino
high quality tobacco seed and several
hundred settings of purebred eggs.
These supplies were distributed at cost
Ihrough the hanks to the farmers.
After considerable effort a market
for dairy products was assured tho
farmers when in 192S a national cheese
company located a factory there. A
county appropriation was secured for
county agent work in 1928.
In 1929 tho cash crop program re
sulted in farmers selling ? 10,900 worth
of milk, 5130,000 worth of tobacco and
flfly-ilvo carloads of potatoes and cab
bage, meetly through cooperative sales.
"This was some step from the 525,000
worth cf each crops in 1920,” tho
county agent, sayr, “and indications
are that this amount will be doubled.’
