We are afraid our citizens and
board Of trade are not looking Aftel
the interest Of our town as they should
as now is the time to prepare for the
spring immigration which is Away,
on the westward move. We should
keep Holyoke's advantages before the
people throughout all the eastern
states from now until spring. II We
are going to make city Of her, We
have got TO extend Inducements t.
eastern capitalists. In these time,
when all are striving TO reach the top
= town has got to offer good induce
ments to get capital interested, and
- Holyoke has got all Of these ad'
vantages, all that is left for us to Dc
il TO advertise her.
Our farmers should prepare to put
In q large crop Of wheat in the spring
and put 1t In carly so 1t can mature
before the dry weather sets In. There
is not the least bit Of doubt In oul
mind but what II = crop Of wheat Is
put In early aud properly, and harvest
ed In due time In Phillips county you
can raise just as big a crop as can they
In Nebraska. The trouble with most
Of our farmers when planting their
crops IL that they lack faith, to great
extent, in Its growing and yielding,
therefore causing It to be put In with
the least possible trouble. This Is
wrong, and 10 an injustice to our fer
tile county Of Phillips. We have
noticed in the past two years In this
vicinity that the farmer who put In
bis crop - II should be, and cultivated
It - It should be, has raised = pretty
fair crop each year. People who came
to this country got It into their heads
that the seed only had to be thrown
upon the prairie and Il bountiful har-
vest would be the result, and becanse
this method Of farming did not bring
them rich returns, they are ever ready
to denounce the country ~ worthless
and barran desert.
On last Saturday the first board Of
