Western Sugar Company officials.
Arrangements have been made
with President G. S. Morcy of the

row morning (Friday) at ten
O'Clock.
The Board of Control is in
possession Of ample evidence that
the territory embraced by the
association will easily support a
modern sugar factory, and they
are going to present the matter
fairly and squarcly to the sugar
company tomorrow. We are not
i'll position to at all state what
attitude the sugar company will
take in the matter, but we are
willing to say that the board of
control will have convincing evi-

dcnce to offer relative to the bona
tide acrerge which has been Sc
cured through the efforts Of the
investigation work which has been
conducted during the past several
months.
The result of tomorrow con-
ference will be watched for with
considerable interest by the peo-
pie OF the territory.at-large, who
are cooperating with the board
OF control in IL hearty manner.
The board is simply representing
the interests of the people OF a
territory which will be made one
of the largest and best beet rails
ing sections in existence, and if
we don't miss our guess, the
Great Western Sugar Company
Will not want to pass the PROPOSE
ton by.
The establishment of sugar
factory in this territory means
everything to the future develop
ment of this great and fertile sec
ton and the people are demand
ing that some sugar company
come into the territory and iden-
tify themselves by the building
OF such an institution, within our
midst. The board of control has
been delegated to accomplish this
result, and they are going to
Denver, clothed with ample evil
dence, clearly showing that the
territory is entitled to sugar
factory in the near future.
Those who are in the party
making the trip to Denver and
will confer with the sugar COM

"GOOD ROADS"
IS DISCUSSED
AT LUNCHEON
Good Roads, Base Ball
and Railway Crossings
Served With Eats

President Parker and Secretary
Dobell were absent at last Wed.
nesday's noon.d day luncheon al
the Brown hotel, but a number
Of important matters were brought
up and discussed pertaining to
the welfare of the community.
w. NJ. Labaree acted as temp.
orsry president aud led the dis
cussions in a most satisfactory
manner. Guy Smelser made a
talk on the affairs OF the Jules
burg baseball club, and made the
announcement that the first game
of the season would be played on
April II in this city with the
Omaha Western League club.
W. H. Pound, as a member Of
the committee on good roads,
made report of that committee,
and this important subject was
given considerable discussion by
all present. The committee was
instructed to interview the county
commissioners further on the
road question. Upon suggestion
by ]. O. Thistle, it was moved
and seconded and unanimously
carried that this committee bring
up with the commissioners, the
matter of placing the American
flag upon the top of the court
house.
One of the most important sub
jects discussed was that of rec
ommending to the town council
that they proceed along lines OF
establishing legalized railroad
crossings in Julesburg. Mayor
Hileman and Councilman E. +.
Clayton were present and assured
the meeting that they would take
the matter up at once. In case
legalized crossings are established
it will eliminate a great nuisance
in the matter of compelling the
railroad company to clear the
crossings after same have been
blockaded by trains over period
of five minutes.
Several faces were missed at
yesterdays noon-day luncheon on
account Of being unavoidably
detained on other business, but
it was a good meeting and con-
siderable benefit was derived.
Don't forget the MONDAY lunch

OPEN UP BASE
BALL SEASON
Clash Between Omaha
and Julesburg Will
Open Ball Season

All arrangements have been
made by Manager Ewing, of the
Julesburg baseball club for play
ing the first game of the season
in Julesburg with the Omaha
Western league club, on April II.
This will be quite an attraction
for this city, and there no doubt
will be one of the largest crowds
present that ever witnessed a
ball game in this city.
Tickets will soon be on sale. a
committee having been appointed
to have charge of this matter.
The baseball club is putting up a
pretty stiff guarantee in order to
secure the western leaguers, and
it is only right that we give them
a hearty cooperation. Out-of-
town visitors are especially invited
to attend this game. 1t will be
worth coming quite distance to
see. The lineup of the Julesburg
team will be made as strong as
possible, and while Julesburg
doesn't expect to win the game,
they will give them a good run
for their money. .And-vou
can't tell what surprises may be
sprung.

SEDGWICK COUNTY is IN GREAT NEED
OF AN AGRICULTURAL AGENT IN ORDER
TO MAKE FARMING MORE OF A SCIENCE

Sedgwick county is enjoying
Il & eat period of prosperity-and
there Is being a mutual benefit
derived by all of her citizens.
Newcomers are numerous and
great progress is being made.
Our real estate men and others
are kept busy answering inquiries
about this section, which is at
tracing wide attention. The
Sedgwick county farmer is pros
perous-so Is Sedgwick county's 5
business man and there is a
reason-we are located in a garden
spot where the possibilities are
great and conditions unexcelled
and here is where we want to
bring up a matter that should
give some food for thought.
How many ofyou heard Hardy
W. Campbell's talk here recently
on DRY Farming A Sclence?'
You missed something if you
didn't. Dry farming as well as
farming on irrigated land is a
science and should be treated
thus. Sedgwick county has good
farmers and somepoor ones. We
all should be interested III seeing
every farmer in this county get
the best possible results off his
land. 1t means added prosperity
to every citizen of Sedgwick
county as a mutual benefit will
be derived therefrom. :.

the needs of better farming?

Summer squash. spinach, chard,

Vegetable soups using a few bones

Such oils as are extractions of seeds
and nuts are more and more common
on the market and may be found after
fair trial to be worth consideration.
The distinctive fiavors which have
been the only objection to them are
gradually being eliminated by greater
care in their preparation. There are
those who have become accustomed to
the flavor by frequent use.
Olive oil is a valuable food much
recommended by dieteticians. A salad
dressed with oil and served with a
cracker or two, with piece of cheese
and cup of cocoa will supply all
the nutriment needed for an ordinary
luncheon.
The value of soups, unless cream or
purees, is rather overestimated, as
the food value Oh strong broth which
Is ninety-fve per cent water, even tast-
ing good, is net very great. Soups
serve valuable purpose in stimulat-

the heavy dinner which follows.
Cheese in combination with rice or
macaroni will take the place of meat
at luncheon or even a dinner. Crack
ers busted with cheese and served with
the salad add much food value to the
meal. Cheese must not be looked
upon only as relish and we need to
give 1t larger place in our menus.
Pie and doughnuts. contrary to the
usual idea, are most nourishing foods
for those who work in the open, for
picnic lunches. A healthy body Will

served with cream sauces are all foods
which will supply all the needed nitro
