Condcnsary Meeting Aftermath

+. b. Childs, of the general office
of Libby, Mcneil 4 Libby, OF Chica-
go. left on No. l yesterday morning
for Denver, where he will visit for
few days while on his way home.
Mr. Childs was much impressed with
the condensary meeting held in this
city last Monday evening, and also
with the community spirit and evil
dence of cooperation that exists be-
tween the farmers OF this section and
the business men of La Junta. He ad-
mitted that La Junta had made a
much better showing in the develop
ment of the dairy industry in this
section than in some communi-
ties where they already had con-
densary If the facts and figures that
have been compiled by representa-
tives of the La Junta Industrial AS
sociation are verified by Mr. Thomp-
son, general field agent for Libby,
Mcneil a Libby, there is hardly a
question that HIS report will be IA
forable to establishing a condensary
in this city at the very earliest pos
sible date.
The best news to report on the
condensary proposition, however, Is
the fact that the local banks have
agreed to loan money for the pur-
chase OF dairy cattle at per cent
interest. This was agreed to by the
banks OF this city on Tuesday, the
day after the condensary meeting,
and II will be one Of the great fac
tors In the development OF the dairy
industry in this section. The banks
OF Lamar charge 10 per cent inter
est for dairy loans. but In Texas and
New Mexico. where the dairy Indus
try is also in its infancy, the inter-
est charge is only per cent, and
they are making wonderful progress
in those sections. That the same
thing will prove true In this COM
munity IL assured by representatives
Of Libby. Mcneil I Libby, and also
by Santa Fe officials. who were
greatly elated when informed OF the
prospect for cheap money to develop
the dairy industry IN this section.
F. N. Thompson. general field man
for Libby. Mcneil & Libby. will be
in La Junta for two weeks or more,
and will make n thorough investiga-
tion OF local conditions and the pros
pect OF securing n sufficient Quanti-
tyof raw material to Justify the erec-
tion OF a condensary in this city.
He will make thorough canvass OF
the territory that has been gone
over by representatives OF the La
Junta Industrial Association, and
verify all OF the facts and figures
that have been compiled. His report
to Libby. Mcneil g. Libby will be the
one great factor In determining fin
ally whether La Jun,a is to have a
milk condensary.

These admirers had been asking him questions about his match with John Olin at the Jefferson theatre Monday night.
 How do you train?" asked one mat enthusiast. and John told of his daily routine It includes mountain climb ing, too, and the big Swede stated that he had looked Red Mountain over several times since he had been here and had also ventured over on Shades on one or two trips. These mountain trips are always made by foot While take daily work outs in the gymna- sum, l find that there is no muscle builder or wind developer in the world like getting out in the open air and mixing it with nature" said Jonothan.
 This work always keeps up until the day before the bout, according to the popular grappler. On the day of an engagement John does practically no work. light breakfast, is indulged d and then nothing to eat until 2 o'clock. At this hour John says the biggest steak obtainable is taken on and If not too tough, the whole of it Is consumed. This completes his eat ing before bout as a mo dinner'' policy is employed by most wrestlers before a bout.
 After the heavy work is over and the referee has made his decision John asserts that any grappler who has to1led for 50 minutes or an hour is more tired than the fellow who has iabored in the field all day under a not summer sun and has bigger ap- petite.
 The day after bout is always a weary one.' says Freberg "The tired feeling continues for day. The funny part about the whole business,'' con ciuded the famous grappler, lis that a wrestler perspires even more the day after bout than he does while on the mat with an opponent"
 Monday nights bout between Olin and Freberg promises to be the best ana most even balanced yet held in the Magic City, Us the men are of even weight They are both top-notchers or the game and Promoter Parkes states that he is preparing to take care of another big house Seat sale starts this morning.

 The Memphis Chicks and the Nash vile Vols have each scored nine runs in one inning this season.
