Several Ilemingford parties have spoken to me concern
ing music lessons, so I have decided to organize a class here,
if there are enough interested. I will be in Ilcmiogford next
Tuesday, December 21st, and will meet those interested at Rev.
Palmer's office, over the First State Bank, between 3:00 and
5 :00 p. m. If you are interested in music from any standpoint,
or know of any one who is, I would like to talk with you. If
you cannot come at the above time, write me or leave word with
Rev. Palmer, and I will call on you.

Hemingford, situated in the Bneat
farming portion of Box Butte county,
can Justly claim to be "The beat town
of its alie In Nebraska." While the
cltliena of the place make the claim
with reference to the bualneaa trans
acted there, the same claim could
probably be made with reference to
Its social and moral atatua. The res
idents of Hemingford and surround
ing country are an exceptionally good
clasa of people, which fact makes it
all the more a pleasure to note their
prosperity in financial affairs.
Probably more bushels of potatoes
ire shipped from Hemingford than
from any other station In Nebraska
r any adjoining state. Some time
later The Herald will give some in
terring figures regarding the quan
tity, for the present suffice it to say
that the amount ia Immense, and that
.luring the part of the Reason that
shipping is the heaviest the town Is
alive with teams from morning till
night hauling in spuds. '
cBsldes the potato Industry, other
firming and ranch interests of the
si'rroundlng country furnish a large
amount of business. Probably no
other town in western Nebraska, ex
cept one, ships more bushels of
grain, while many car loads of hogs
and cattle are loaded here for ship
ment to the live stock markets.
Soiuo of the business firms of this
live town are taking advantage of
The Herald's large circulation in the
northern and western parts of Box
Butte county, which are tributary to
Hemingford, and are inviting trade
thru its advertising columns. We
wish to call particular attention to
these advertisements at this time.
One of the leading hardware mer
chants of western Nebraska is C. A.
Shindler. He carrlea a stock of goods
that would do credit to a city many
times the sixe of Hemingford, and
has a large and commodious store
room, but the thing that particularly
appeals to Intelligent buyers Is the
quality of the goods sold. In hard
ware as well as in other lines of
merchandise, the best Is the cheap
est. An Institution that is doing much
to bring trade to the town and Is
helping greatly In developing the
surrounding country is the Heming
ford Co-Operatlve Creamery, of
which Mr. Jens Norgaard Is the ef
ficient manager. By reading the ad
vertisement In this Issue of The Her
ald you will get some information
that may surprise you regarding the
volume of business that Is already
being transacted by the comparative
ly new creamery. Dairying Is destin
ed to become one of the leading in
dustries of this part, of the west, and
Hemingford is fortunate in having
an enterprising creamery company
operating this early In the develop
ment of the Industry.
We know of no other town the size
of Hemingford that has a drug store
that Is as well stocked as that of The
H. R. Olds Drug Co. Only a brief
reference is made in the advertise
ment to the many things that are
carried in stock. You will need to
call and see for yourself in order to
form a correct Idea of the fine line
that may be found In this large store.
The stock of goods for the holiday
trade Is exceptionally fine.
We can't say much as a matter of
news regarding the Forest Lumber
Co., as the yards of this concern are
too well known tbruout Nebraska for
us to say much that is not already
generaly known. To say that it is a
Forest Lumber Company yard means
that a large stock of dependable lum
ber and building material is carried.
The yards in this part of the west are
making a speciality of coal this sea
son, as will be seen by their adver
tisements. Mr. P. J. Michael, a
courteous and gentlemanly young
man, Is the able manager of the Hem
ingford yard. Readers of The Her
aid who trade there wll find that our
commendation of him Is none too
strong. t

NOTICE
To Patrons and Stockholders
in the Hemingford
Co-OperativeCreamery
GENTLEMEN
We want to call your attention to the fact that a co-operative plant
needs patronizing in every detail. It is, all over the United States, where
farmers patronize their own organization, the bout products are turned
out and the biggest profits coming in. Why should we not show the same
g09d-judgmcntt
We have from June to November, this year, bought 62,000 pounds
of butter fat, made and sold 76,000 pounds of butter, with a net gain of
$750.00.
Winter is coming and cream is falling off, but anyway we can make
a good profit if you deliver every drop of cream you produce to the Cream
ery. More cream means bigger dividends to the cream producers and
bigger interest to the stockholders.
FAITHFULLY,
Hemingford Co-Operative Cr'y Co.

ing, The Herald believes that the la
dies of Hemingford and the sur
rounding country will do well to call
on Pearl M. Lorensen, first door
north of Shindler's hardware store.
No doubt they can save money In or
dering their millinery from her, and
get prompt and satisfactory service
by having her do their dress making.
Everybody in and around the town
knows W. M. Corey. By industry
and honest enterprising effort he has
built up a fine business from a small
beginning, and now has a store of
which he may well be proud. He has
a line of goods suitable for presents
that will Interest Christmas shoppers.
By reading his advertisement you
will have a suggestion of what be
carries In stock. '
While not a resident of Heming
ford, Paul W. Thomas of Alliance has

been requested to visit Hemingford
regularly for the purpose of giving
Instruction in music, and, as will be
seen by his announcement on this
page, he is planning to do so.
