When the first summarized statement of this kind was prepared on April 30, 1902, the local papers featured the fact that the deposits of the county were $1,010,000.00. The fact the million mark had been reached was noteworthy. It is interesting to note that in the ten years that have intervened those deposits have more than doubled. The capital stock has also doubled and the item of surplus and profits has more than trebled. A proportionate increase is seen in all other items except overdrafts which have been held down in a most commendable manner.

There are now fifteen banks in the county, four national and eleven state, and the increase in deposits alone since February 1909 has been $333,000.00. The loans show a corresponding increase during the same period. There are few counties with the banking facilities of Livingston and there are certainly very few where the per capita deposit is over $90.00, as is the case with us.
