THE CLARK BANKING CO.
COVINGTON, GA.
Solicits the Business and Accounts of Farmers
and Business Men.
Why Farmers Should Keep a Bank Account
Farmers, as a rule, keep no book of accounts. Their bank deposit bool:
affords them a complete record of their cash receipts, while the stubs of the
check book are a perfect record of expenses and payments. Paying a laborer, as
store account, or any other bill with a bank check is much safer than with
money; because the person receiving the check must endorse it, and the check
being returned to the maker by the bank, can be preserved as a receipt. Money
deposited in a bank is not so easily and so often “fooled away” as when carried
around in one’s pocket. Farmers: Try the experiment for one year of keeping
a bank account and see if it does not pay you. A large number of the best
farmers have accounts with us.
We are desirous of having farmers’ accounts, even though small; for in this
locality, where mixed farming is preached and practiced, their accounts are sure
to grow larger.
