Onîe such man, a rancher in the West, recently wrote to bis bank manager: "I wish to express my appreciation of the u'cO'yVoU r bank has treated me through the yers. .the encouragement you have gIvten me in the building of my herd. 1 feel the suecess ive have achieved could hardl ' have been obtained without your intelligent support." The farmer uses bank credit in many w%.ays: to develop his land, buy livestock and equipment, market crops. Aiding Canada's food producers is an important part of the broad service the chartered banks perform for ail Canadians.
