superintendent of the East Lin

Mr.. Ball having resigned that
position.
The reservation is proud of
their "corn-plowers" and they
believe their calling to be an hon
orable one. But they also think
it is possible for some men to be
mistaken in their calling.
w. S. Ball arrived home from
Eaton last Monday morning, he
having been taken sick there and
was advised by his physician to
return home and prepare himself
for run of typhoid. fever. DR..

Although very weak Mr.. Ball is
gaining strength each day and we
hope for his recovery soon.

How We Appear to Outsiders.

Frank Ire White, for several
years Colorado newspaper man,
employed on Denver dailies, now
with the land department of the
Union Pacific, spent Monday and
Tuesday at Julcsburg. Mr..
White is gathering data for ad-
vertising publications issued by
the company. He informs us
that there is increased interest OF
investors in Colorado land and
some good sales have recently
been made.
''Sedgwick county, by reason
of its favorable location in the
fertile valley of the South Platte,
is destined to become one of the
banner farm and feeding districts
of the state" said MIR. White,
after acquainting himself with
conditions around Julesburg.
"Th.re is important work to be
done in acquainting ranchmen
with the value of intense cultiya-
ton and diversity OF crops, both
grain and forage. Thousands of
acres along the river can be made
to produce more annually than its
present value if seeded to alfalfa
or devoted to grain crops, roots
or Othtcr sorts of forage.
81 can see no reason why this
county should not rank with Weld
and Larimcr in this state or with
Lincoln county in Nebraska in
yield, quality and profits to be
derived from sugar beets. At
North Platte the business men of
that town have determined to de-
monstrate that Il sugar factory
could he operated protitably and
have formed q company to raise
heets. This year they have 200
acres scattered over many farms
and have leased 260 acre tract
for five years. Only sixty acres
of this was found to be in state
of cultivation suitable for beots
and the remaining 200 acres is be-
ing prepared for next year. The
energy of these North Platte bus
mess men has induced individual
farmers to engage in the growing
of beets to the extent that 1900
acres in the county is devoted to
that crop and it will require more
than 5000 cars to haul the beets
to the Grand Island factory.
LET Sedgwick county farmers
unite to plant an acreage to beets
that will demonstrate adaptubility
of the soil to that crop. 1t would
attract attention of investors,
double and treble land values and
1t is not impossible that factory
would be located here.
"Increased production of hay
by planting every available acre
of bottom lands to alfalfa would
make this winter feeding point
second to none. 1t is adjacent to
the ranges where live stock is
produced in great numbers and
the owner of u hay ranch has his
choice of disposing of feed crops
or of receiving cattle to winter in
his fields. Either plan increases
his bank account, encourages
others to make the most of oppor-
tunitics. and augments land val
ues of the whole county.
81 predict that before the end
of this year there will be an influx
of investors seeking land that
will result in placing many more
families in this valley. No sec
ton of the country offers greater
inducements to homeseekcrs and
the tide of immigration is turned
this way"
