PLANS EFFICIENT CAMPAIGN

THE board also decided to hold

preciate your support and coopera-
ton, and in return you are pledged
their best endeavors to serve you"
An auditing committee, composed
of R. j. kavalec and j. H. Good
knight, made a two-years audit of

the secretary's bookkeeping.

In preparation for the ensuing
seasons work, the Monte Vista Hog
Growers association has recently
had meetings of the Board of Di-
rectors. Advisory Board and Audit
ing Committee to close up last years s
business and inaugurate an efficient
campaign for 1915.
# was decided by the Board of
directors to raise the assessment
from $40 as formerly, to $12.50,
to obviate the donations which have
been required to pay the obligations
of the association. Other import
ant. matters are outlined in the fol-
lowing letter to the members, mailed
March S, 1915:
1.-THE Board of Directors of this
Association met on February 11th,
and after organizing, discussed the
matter of financing the Association
for this year. The Board was au-
thorized by vote of the stockhold-
ers on February 10th, to levy such
assessment as was deemed neces-
sary. Because of the fact that it
has been necessary at the close of
each of the past two years, to soli-
cit donations in order to pull thru
with all obligations paid, the board
decided to levy an assessment of
$125O per share, which is now due
and payable to the secretary. We
dislike the idea of donations being
a part of the associations income,
and feel that it should be supported
entirely by it's members. There has
been some inquiry about the price
Of serum for vaccination, and it has
been decided that same be handled
through the association.
I'VE have the unique distinction
of being the largest and most sue
cessful organization of its kind in
the country, SO let us be proud of
the fact and lend our moral as we'll
as financial support, and make 1915
our best year. Haven't you friend
or neighbor who would become a
member If you will only extend him
the invitation?

JACKS MAY BRAY,
NO MUFFLERS REQUIRED

The jury in the appealed case of
City of Monte Vista vs. H. C. Mum
sell in the county court at Del Norte
Tuesday. rendered verdict in favor
of Munsell.
This suit was instituted last Oc-
tober when Munsell was complained
against as maintaining nuisance
by keeping his breeding jacks at the
Farmers Feed Yard. In the hear
ing before Judge Hender, Munsell
was fined 800 and costs under the
nuisance ordinance. An appeal was
taken from this decision and the
case came up for hearing this week.
Five witnesses on each side were
questioned, the evidence on the part
OF the city attempting to show that
the braying of the jacks disturbed
the residents and was nuisance. A
good deal of law was introduced and
the jury deliberated "a hours before
arriving at a decision.
The city asked for ten days in
which to prepare a motion for a now
trial.

If We Could Only Eliminate Denver

Denver is ina "class to ITSELF" Perhaps no
other city in the world is subjected to the periodical
turmoil which Denver insists upon and has. 1t is
significant that the political complexion of the state
administration does not determine for peace: the
honest populist governor, the democratic gov
ernor, nor the republican governor is powerful
enough to control the Vaccinations of an independ-
ent ring of politicians whose motto is LET Us Have
Trouble" and whose object is to carry out the be-
hests of their employers, to the end that the will of
the people may be defeated.

SIMPLEX STRAW SPREADER
SHOWS ITS PRACTICAL USE

c. L. Rice and w. p. SISTER. In charge
OF the Simplex Straw spreader for the
Manson Campbell company, did some real,
practical work on the grounds OF the
Tractor Farming Demonstration and up
on the roads roundabout. Rains fell
Tuesday evening and Wednesday, but
they die not deter the crowds OF peDie
who were bent upon attending the DEM
onstration. Crowds came. mud or no mud.
They were prepared for mud. but when
they arrived at the grounds. they were
agreeably surprised TO find there was no
mud--lt had been covered up with nice
carpet OF straw.
Many wondered who had gone 20 such
pains and how the work had been done
so nicely, the ground being covered even
ly with a good spread Of straw. Tho
explanation was soon discovered when
the men named were seen busily engaged
in finishing their work with the Simplex
spreader. The machine sure did make
the straw fly. not into the winds to be
scattered broadcast. but upon the ground
where II was directed. An even spread
of straw was distributed over an expsnse
Of from fifteen TO twenty feet at every
trip across the field. II is said that two
men can thus cover from fifteen to
twenty acres a day.

WALLIS CUB SHOWS
SPEED AT START
Breaks Worlds Record for Flowing
Three-Acre Tract on First
Day of Show.
FAMOUS FOR IT'S LONG TRIP

The worlds record for fast blowing
was smashed into atoms on the opening
day of the Fremont demonstration. The
Msllis Cub tractor. Of cross-country
lame. lowered the record for blowing
three acres with four-bottom pillow
from s7h minutes to q minutes.
Coupled with this remarkable perform
ance. was the fact that the land the
Cub was blowing had depression half
filled with water across It and the plows
had to be dragged through this. Other
tractors filled their wet spots with straw
and lifted their plows across. but the
. little Cub pulled it's four plows through
without lifting them once.
The rate of speed maintained by the
Wallis tractor was greater than is gem
orally necessary in farm operations. but
It shows the reserve energy and surplus
power TO be expected in this machine.
Two and one-fourth to two and three
fourths miles per hour is the speed or
dinarily used, but the Wallis people be-
lieve that more power should be on land
when needed.
The wonderful flexibility and power of
the motor in the Cub" was well shown
several times during It's famous thousand
mile durability run. At times mud holes
were found In which the drive wheels
sank to the hub. but a judicious use of
chains and logs and the great power Of
the motor made recovery of firm ground
easy. In one bad stretch OF road Just
west Of Atlantic, Ia. one drivewheel was
deep in the mud. and the whole tractor
inclined at an angle of thirty-five de
grees, and yet the engine righted and
pulled out under its own power.
The ]. !. Case Pillow Works. general dis
trlbutors for the Wallis Cub" is highly
pleased with the performance OF its ma
chine, both in the durability run and the
field work of the demonstration and be-
lieve that their machine will gain the
confidence of all traction engine users.
Its motor is rated as fifty-two horse
power, with draw bar pull of twenty
elk horsepower. 1t is guaranteed TO pull
four bottoms anywhere. and in very light
soils II will pun six. 1t will handle the
heaviest loads on the road at a speed
Of four miles an hour. or will pull on
the belt any machine In use on mod
ern farm
With the remarkable performance Of the
Cub on the first day OF the demonstra-
ton, its record breaking blowing speed,
the popularity Of the Overland Limited
was assured. M
