DISTRICT COURT news IS WITHHELD
BEET CHECKS WILL NOW
COME IN FORM OF DRAFTS

A change in form of beet pay checks
was announced by the Great Western
sugar Company today. by which
growers this season Will be paid by
crafts on the Company, clearing thru
Denver Growers, however, will hand
lie the paper in the usual way, thru
their local banks.
The change is technical one
mer.ly, occasioned by the unusual
conditions in the financing of the
harvest and the factory campaign.
Instead of making large deposits in
numerous banks throughout the beet
raising territories, the Company's
lunds will be held with its own Treas
urer With the plan of former years
the Company carried considerable
interest burden in these scattered de-
posits.
The Company, itself heavy bor-
rover following very unfavorable
year sugar market and facing anoth-
er year or two of probable uncer-
lainties, wishes to take advantage of
every economy. Instead OF tying up
its funds by deposits in a score OF
u.ferent places while the beet checks
float around in the growers hands,
frequently for many days, the Com
panys changed plan will result in the
more efficient use of its funds. The
pian snoud make no change in the
growers practice of dealing with his
.ocal bank direct.
The Companys liberal policy with
the local banks in many years past
z rs changed to limited extent and is
occasIoned solely by the emergency
explained above. The Company re-
tains its confidence IN the local banks

porary repositories for the beet pay
mentS.

Both are experienced in every detail
Of the automobile business, and we
predict success for them in their new

A business change in Julesburg has
been affected during the past week,

Nebr, having purchased the Jules

ing a progressive business man, is
thoroughly experienced in the bakery
business, being a practical baker, and
no doubt he will make success of his
new venture, as the majority of the
citizens of Julesburg are favorable
to patronizing home enterprises when

ct emphatically do believe in the

chemist, in his talk today noon before
the Chamber of Commerce diners.
"and because I say I do, 1 get a lot
of questions from some of the wise
guys that try to catch me up. For
instance-one time a fellow asked me
if 1 believed in the story about Jonah
and the whale. / am a chemist; that
story belongs in the hydraulic depart
ment-so 1 didn't answer him. Then
he asked me if 1 believed that old
fable about the camel that got thru
the eye of the needle. I told him did,
most emphatically. Now 1 suppose
some of you folks think I'm lying.
Listen here-If he can't get thru as he
is, dissolve him in nitric acid and
squirt him thru. He'll go that way all
right
RAIDERS talk was decidedly interest
ing, in many respects. He spoke of
the relation of the Bible to everyday
life, told how he was helped by a
study of the Bible during the war, and
how every man could have the same
help-if he wanted it.

whistler and bird imitator, gave a de-

VACATION SEASON OPENS JUNE 1.
Railroads Arrange Schedule for Travel
to All Resorts.

The vast majority of Kansas people,
when they think vacation" think
Colorado or California" But never
theless. there are Kansans who would
like to go to eastern points to spend
their vacations during the summer
months.
Colorado because Of its nearness,
and California for some other reason
maybe advertising. maybe not
have almost eclipsed the resorts of the
east in the thoughts of the people who
take trips in the summer.
Arrangements for summer excur-
sions to these points. however, are
made each year by the railroads. The
announcement of what the eastern
railroads men to do this year in the
matter of rates has not yet been made
by the Central Passenger association
of Chicago thru which the tnterchang-
Ing passenger business is handled, but
they will be announced in the near flu
ture.
The rates usually become effective
June l. the same date as the summer
excursion rates to the western points.
As a rule, they do not include the COM
mercial centers of the east, but apply
to the summer resorts of the Atlantic
coast, and to Michigan and Canadian
| resorts.
Travel to the east and west alike
| will start about JLne l, but will not
| reach it's peak until July or August
