"I can't say lust where I got the
idea." said Mr. Klddo. "My father
kept digging at me for two weeks to
try my hand at It, but I think It was
the very last day of the contest that I
sent In the suggestion. It seemed to
me to be worth while because of
double significance. 'Grow With
Growing Omaha, appeals to one's
pride In the city and also has an ap
plication to each individual in the
city."

ANOTHER ritOOF OP PUDDING
Western Ncbrak ru)-red Cattle
Establish Now Ilerord at K. C.
You know the proof of the pud
ding. Well, the proof of the claim
that this part of the west furnishes
tho best, or aa good as the best, feed
er cattle on earth Is found in the
feeding and marketing of them. The
following Item, taken from the Kan
sas City Dally Drovers Telegram of
June 12, helps to pile up the evi
dence that la constantly accumulat
ing: In the sale today of pulp-fed steers
at $11 per cwt. on the Kansas City
market, two new price records were
established. The price was the high
est price ever paid here in the month
of June for fed cattle of any. kind,
and also the highest ever paid for
cattle from the beet sugar territory.
The Great Western Sugar company
operating beet sugar plants at sev
eral points In both Colorado and Ne
braska, owned these steers, which av
eraged 1.312 lbs. They came from
the company's feed lot at SrottsblufT,
Nebr.
The previous record price paid for
pulp-fed steers was on Tuesday, of
last week, when a sale was made on
a string shipped from Swlnk, Colo.
They brought $10. 8R. The record
price on this market for fod cattle
during the month of June prior to
this year was $9.50. This price whs
paid in June, 191 fi, and In .fun',
1912. The highest price paid for fed
steers on the Kansas City market In
June, 1906, 10 years ago, was $6.90.
