Hereford Breeders
Have Nice Words for
Reception in Alliance
The caravan of Hereford boosters,
vho pnent last Saturday afternoon
rind night in Alliance, appreciated the
reception in this city, according to a
report of the trip which appeared in
the Omaha Journal-Mwkman Monday.
The article describes the trip to Alli
unce, iind touches on crop conditions
in the county. The Journal-Stockman
When the boosters turned towards
Alliance early Friil.iy morning, led by
Sam t-winback and bis family, the Fky
wit? overcast and it was cold. An
hour's Mnn was muIe at historic Foit
Iibinon where, on., a reserve of
l;:,l00 acre?, the government is breed
inir und training horses. Colonel I'd
wi.nl Calvert, in charge at the Foit,
I i;':,! "jit the horses for the mspec
', tim of tlw visitors ami led the party
over the reservation. There are- five
tboroulthbred Ftalliona nt. the fort, one
Mortrnn tallion and one Arabian stal-
lHia, the famous ho'ie importeil from
T.iiLdand. iximecl Rodan. There are
also en th reservation 3j hordes,
275 inmost and !!" bwiod marcs. The
most intefuxtinjr feature of Fort llob
inson, usidd from its historic memories
as rH'h irrjlndian war legends, is the
mule "jind 'icolt pasture. -As Mon as
Colonel Calvert and his long train of
quests entered the pasture, the young
colts and mules marched up to extend
a cordial greting. The mules were
wonderfully polite. They hung their
heads over the boosters' shoulders and
nil'd at the flaming red badges and
otherwise showed a deep interest in
the visitors and their mission.- Mules
and colts followed the crowd to the
-M.ture gates- and loftkd.long And
earnestly at the procession of auto
mobiles wending its way down the old
fouth trail.
Except an nlmost icy wind which
pwept the highlands, the sixty mile
trip from Fort Robinson to Alliance
was delightful. For the first ten miles
fiouth of the fort the scenery almost
equaled the Sheridan-Dawes canyon.
It is a great-plains country. Farms
are few until one strikes far into Box
Rutte county. The roads are reason
ably good but the road from Heming
ford to Alliance is just as good as the
Cornhusker trail between Fremont and
Lincoln. The caravan arrived in
groups in Alliance as some of the
party took a detour into Sioux county.
The trip to Agate had been abandoned
on nccount of the bad roads.
The potato fields in Rox Butte are in
fine condition and the planters look to
an enormous crop. Farmers say that
much wheat will run to 40 bushels and
that the average yield will be high.
Threshing is not completed. The
county boasts of one curiosity to east
ern eyes, a purple-black wheat out of
which macaroni is made. When the
purple wheat first came into view
over the hills, the boosters were
tempted to take up subscription for
the farmers who had lost their all by
rust. Several of the boosters diagnosed
the wheat disease as an irrepressible
pporadic fungus and were much as
tonished to learn that the wheat was
one of the Box Butte county's greatest
assets.
Alliance lead. the world in more
things than can be enumerated in a
front page of a newspaper and its
boosters can prove the fact by statis
tics. It is a wonderful little town with
business section which would do
credit to a town of ten times its size.
And it is busy.
At G o'clock on Saturday evening
the boosters were the guests of the
country club at dinner. Dinner was
eaten on the porch overlooking the six
hundred acre lake. After dinner the
guests and their hosts smoked, pipes
and cigars in the great ball room of
the $20,000 club house and toasted
their chilled backs at a blazing hearth
fire.
' A meeting at the court house at
Mayor R. M. Hampton, a former
7:30 o'clock ended the day in Alliance.
Shorthorn breeder, addressed the
crowd.
E. von Forell, who owns the bunch
of fine Hereford. at the Lake Alice
ranch in Seotts Bluff county, and who
came to .Alliance to meet the boosters,
also made an enthusiastic speech.
Then the crowd disappeared for the
night. A misty rain was falling and
the various street thermometers show
ed a temperature only eight degrees
above freezing.
