A Million in Live Stock.

1t is estimated that the live stock
to be exhibited at the Denver show,
January 1928, will represent val
ue Of over a million dollars. There
will be many single animals worth
from $4,000 to $4,000 each, il in
deed they could be purchased, while
there will be hundreds worth over
$500 each. These cattle, horses and
sheep will represent the ideals of
their different breeds and visit to
the big show will be an education
to the farmer or stockman who de-
sires to know what is the highest
type produced in the various classes
of animals as business proposition,
no farmer or stockman can afford
to stay away.

terwards the dedication OF Odd Eel

In this connection Secretary Nc
Creery has thought of new scheme
which will be big advertising fea-
ture and of much benefit to the
whole community and especially the
manufacturers. The exhibition of
farm products and the sugar beet
industry at the Commercial club
rooms attracts much attention and
is viewed by dozens of people each
day. The scheme is to have each
manufacturer make a miniature mod
el OF their machinery and install
same at the club, and boost those
home industries as we'll as our crops.
small model of spud sorters, rail-
road beet dumps, wagon bed dumps,
chinery peculiar to this territory
would be an important addition to
this display and all these could be
used to advantage at the County
Fairs.
In order to advertise this district
the U. p. or the Burlington would
no doubt furnish a car at the close
of the County Fair to send a booster
committee of 80 or 40 through the
central states. They could take witt
them literature and much of the
products shown at the Fair as vel
as the small models of our local o.
county industries. Oklahoma ant
Texas towns have been doing thi
with great results in the past tw'
years A brass band is necessar,
adjunct of such delegation and tn
newspapers along the route furnisl
plenty OF free advertising and usual
ly have a crowd at the depot to NEE

The car is placed on side trac
in each town and picked up by tn

tions for such occasions. The e.

ANOTHER PRELIMINARY.
Florance files Demurrer to Replica

Sheriff Florance, through his A.

filed a demurrer to the replication
of the contestor. asking to strike
out the averments not contained in
the original complaint and also seek
to eliminate other portions Of the
replication as being immaterial from

This demurrer is the first prelimi-

the crowd went to the furnace room,

has been made for reduced rates.
II is evident from this that the
present rate OF rs cents per hundred
win still remain in effect for some
time to come.
Yours truly
VIM. X McALLISTER.
General Agent.
The average farmer knows more
about the local spud condition than
the Tribune. and also about the crop
of this season in other states. He
knows the quality Of the Greeley
spud this season as compared with
other western districts. and also the
fact that there Is large supply ~
this district at the present time. He
knows that the crop has been larger
than last year in the west He knows
much more than this, and is best
able to draw his own conclusions rs
to whether he will sell his spuds or
hold them.
The matter OF freight rates WIS
something the farmer could not de-
termine 30 easily, and that is the
reason the Tribune made this inves-
tigation. The object is to state the
actual conditions. The grower can
compare last years condition with
this years and see If it will pay him
to hold his crop for speculation.
Most of the commission merchants
desire to see the farmer get n good
price for his crop and few of them
would countenance a false report in
regard to freight rates or any other
condition.

frightful drain. The remedy is to
give preference to home companies.
There Is no reason why the South
should not be receiving and absorb
ing insurance money from the
other states instead of pouring it
out constantly and having it go to
build wealth elsewhere and never
TO return here"
We hardly think the case is as
bad or the drain as heavy as would
appear at first blush. 1t is true
that 10y far the larger part of the
money paid out by the South in
insurance premiums goes TO COM
panies located outside this section
but inconsiderable part of it finds
its way back in the shape of loans
and investments in the Southern
States. At the same time. how
ever. the News-Leaier'S advice to
patronize home companies is per-
tincut and timely. The South has
need of every dollar it possesses to
build up its waste places and to
loid IN acCelerating the development
Of is resources and industries.
NJ rel cent which can be as adj
&ntageoUSly employed here should
be invested elsewhere. There is
no reason why a much learger
proportion of the money invested
in insurance should not be retained
here now, nor any reason why, in
g comparatively short time, COM
panieS located and owned in the
South should not be carrying all
the South's insurance of every
kind. There IS no lack here of
men capable of managing such
business or of capital to finance it.
This Is concluSively shown by the
number of Southern companies
which have sprung up within the
last few years and the uniform
success which has attended their
management and operation. These
ought 10 be encouraged in every
possible way and an incentive
given to the establishment of Others
as we'll as to enlargement of those
already existent.
But development along this line.
to be safe and healthy, must be-
gradual. Strong and solid insur-
ance institutions are not created
in day. They are the result Of
steady growth ard conservative
management. New and untried
companies car do too much bust
ness Is well as too little. These
are facts which the South. in the
effort 10 build up an insurance
business of its own. would do well
TO bear in mind. This section can
and ought to handle is own insur-
ance, but 1t can not do ii all at once
and ought not to try.-Norfolk
