SIZE OF STORE IS
NOT LIMITED TO
SIZE OF TOWN

The time has gone by when the size
of store is limited by the population
of the town where it is located. Any
small town may have some hustling
merchants who reach far beyond their
own neighborhood, and draw trade
from a whole country or number of
counties. In these days Of the auto
mobile, people will go many miles to
an attractive store located in the cen
ter of a rural district.
The people who come across coun-
try to visit such an establishment
know that it has many advantages
over the big city competitor. It's rent
is relatively small. It's expense for
help is not nearly so large as the city
stores, for the employees do not have
to pay high prices for their living
although we will grant that living
prices anywhere are high enough, but
n the city they are exhorbitant. The
store in the smaller town can beat
out the city store all along he line.

SUGAR CO. MAKES
PROPOSAL FOR
THE 1920 BETS

Beet growers, selling their product
to the Great Western Sugar company,
will receive SIP ton for their 1920
crop, according to an announcement
by President W. L. Petrikin last
Monday. Also growers will receive an
additional 81 ton for all beets de-
livered in 1919.
1.-THE contract price for beets in 1919
was $40 a ton. The company now
proposes to, make the 1919 price $11
and the 1920 price $12.
Growers in Colorado, Nebraska,
Wyoming and Montana delivered
1000 900 tons Of beets to the company
in 1919. Altho these beets have been
paid for at the contract price, the
company will send to each grower a
check for an amount equal to 81 for
each ton delivered during the past
year. The bonus will amount to
81, 900 900.
"If the 1920 crop is equal to the 1919
production, it will bring the growers
$24 100000 at the new figure"
The above news article and an
nouncement appeared in the Denver
Post Tuesday, January 20th. How
ever. Notwithstanding this announce
ment which might give the impression
that the matter of price for the 1920
Meet contract had been definitely set
tied, the following notice has been sent
out by The Mountain States Beet
Growers' Association, the same ap-
pearing in quarter-page display ad-
vertisement elsewhere in this issue Of
the Grit-Advocate, which clearly, ex-
plains the situation and is authentic
information that the sugar company's
proposal has not been accepted by the
associations:
Beet Growers Take Notice
The Board of Directors Of the
Mountain States Beet Growers As
sociation suggest that you refuse to
sign any Beet contract, no matter how
attractive it may appear. for the 1920
crop until after the meeting Of the Ma
tional Beet Growers Association,
which will meet in Denver January
26th, 27th and 2sth. at which time
these matters will be considered by
representative beet growers from all
over the United States. Your Asso-
citation will then be better advised and
better able to determine fair con-
tract and will then advise the growers
in accordance With the information
thus obtained.

the beet growers of this section were
present.
1t was very enthusiastic gather
ing, the meeting being presided over
by President George Jones, who open
ed the session with a very interesting
talk touching along the lines of the
sugar beet industry and of The
part played by the growers, making
the comparison of the Great Western
Sugar Company's interests to that Of
the growers, and pointed out the chief
reasons why the growers should be or
ganized and stand square and firm
for higher price for sugar beets
during the coming year.
Frank Deich, who represented the
local organization at the meeting of
growers and officials of the sugar
company at Denver, Tuesday, Jan
18th, was present and made detailed

effect that the Mountain States Beet

members and beet growers to refrain
from signing the 1920 beet contract
until a satisfactory scale Of prices
was agreed upon between the sugar
comrany and the association The
association asks that its members and
all beet growers await further advice
Of the association.

formerly a teacher in the high school
and for six years county school sup
erntendent of Wayne county, Nebr.
We are glad to welcome Mr.. and
Mrs. Vaught to our social and business
circles. Mr.. Vaught is a very pleas
ant and congenial man and no doubt
will be an asset to this progressive
community, and he informs us that
he is ready and willing to use his best
efforts toward the further progress
Of Julesburg and Sedgwick county at
all times.
The Citizens National Bank is one
of the most stable and progressive -
well as one of the Oldest business m
stitutions in Sedgwick county, and W
believe the new management will place
the bank upon even higher plane
than its present high standard. The
new elected officers and directors ars
as follows: W. W. vaught, president;
Chas. Petersen, vice-president; E. r.
Clayton, cashier; C. 8. Deily, assistant
cashier. Directors-W. W. vausht,

The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1920-01-22

Upon motion made, seconded and
carried the local organization adopted
IA resolution to the effect that all
members of the association and beet
growers in this district be urged not

sociation, and the secretary was in
structed to send notice to this effect

The beet growers in the west end of
the county. There are a few how
ever, who have not yet joined, and
they are urged to do so at once. The
membership committees are working
diligently and within short time the
membership will be 100 per cent.

A business transaction of consider
able proportions was consummated
in Julesburg last week when the stock
~ ii. B. Stewart of Charlton, Iowa,
and B. F. Clayton of Indianola, Ia,
in the Citizens National Bank of
julesburg was purchased by w. w.
vaught, recent newcomer to this
city from Stromsburg, Nebr.
AS result of the sale of the Stew
art and Clayton stock Mr.. Vaught
secures the controlling interest and
gentleman will henceforth be ac-
i've in the management Of the bank, in
the capacity of president. Mr.. Stew
art retires as director. Mr.. Earl
c. Harris has been elected a director
TO fill vacancy caused by the death
OF his father, the late C. NJ. Harris
and Chas. Petersen is vice-president.
f. F. Clayton, who has been asso-
ciated with the Citizens National
Bank for many years, will remain in
his former position as cashier, and
will continue to give customers the
same personal attention AZ in the
past. C. S. Deily will remain as as
sistant cashier.

stores got SO large a part Of the
country trade, was that city stores
were formerly much better advertis-
ers. BY many years of persistent ad-
vertising, they built up good will
all over the country. OF late the
stores in the smaller towns have gone
more into the advertising game As
the result of this better spirit Of en-
terprise, and the favorable basis upon
which they do business, they are
steadily getting back the business that
belongs to them.
Any store in Julesburg by a de-
termined purpose to build up new
business, and by reaching out with
the necessary publicity campaigns,
can draw in trade from long distance
and retain a lot that has been going
to mail order houses and the city de-
partment stores. A splendid begin
ming on that line has already been
made by the live men that advertise
in the Grit-Advocate. Watch 'em, and
see 'em grow. Yes, it pays to adver-
tise, you'll have to admit, even those
of you who are too slow to use consist
ent advertising in an advertising med
;um such as this paper.

MAN HIT BY AUTO Run
MING WITHOUT LIGHTS

An accident occurred last Saturday
evening about seven o'clock when a
japanese named Roy Kuramotto, who
is employed by Atwood Harris, was
hit by an automobile while walking
along the road near the Deich resi-
dence in the north part of Julesburg.
1t is reported that the driver of the
car was driving without lights, and for
this reason Kuramotto was unable to
see the car approaching. He was
knocked down and rendered uncon-
scious, and the occupants of the car
made getaway without offering as
sistance to the injured man, leaving
the victim IN a disabled condition.
4 short time after the accident
Kuramotto was discovered by Chas.
Jewell who happened along the road.

live school news, jokes, etc. The pap,

DR.. Hart was summoned and the in
jured man taken to the John Denni-
son home where medical aid was Civ
en-. Fortunately Mr.. Kuramotto vas
not seriously injured, and il reported
as recovering nicely, although nurs-
ing bad bruises.
The identity of the driver of the car
has not been discovered, his guilty
conscience probably being the cause
of his hasty disappearance after ths
accident, for the reason that he was
violating the law in driving along
public highway without lights.
This practice is becoming too common
in this locality, and the offenders
should be made to pay a severe pen
atty as safeguard for the protec-
ton of the public.
