Since the optbreak of war the total inorrase in barsk deposite is over $25,000,000, cr 76 per cent while advances made to customers · have risen by £7,250.000, or 23 per cent, only. In 1914 these advance mounted, to 231 par cept, of the total deposits, whare- se to-day the proportion is only 65 per cent.
