Our county fail starts ut Chadrort
this week on Tuesday. In conversation
with Fred Taylor, our county agent,
last week he informed us that the
how was to be the largest and best
ever held in western Nebraska. On ac
count of the increased popularity of
'his majesty "The Porker" a special
hog barn has been constructed to han-
die the exhibit of hogs that are enter
ed. Two breeds stand out. above all
other in Dawes county, the Poland
China and the Duroc Jersey. Herds
";have grown overnight one might say
nd say truthfully. Such men as C.
1. White and son, Fred Tayor and
others in Dawes county have done
much towards furthering the promot
ing the success of the swine industry
in this section of the state. Hog sales
have been held with unlooked-for suc
cess. In the past two years interest
'ha been aroused in the possibilities
attainable through the conversion of
the corn crop into pork, and it is some
uhing of vital importance to a farmer
vhen big money can be made from the
raw land that is now being grazed.
-Of course each year sees thousands of
acres broke out and as this land is con
verted into tillable soil the farmer
2 naturally must look for a way to M
Wtttrns on his investment. What
in be a more remunerative anu ro
ffrtable way than feeding hid crops into
registered stock. Today hogs and cat
tle of the best blood lines in tha
.- animal world can be purchased for the
same amount that a scrub animal
fold for during the period of inflated
values. Is it not worth staying awhile
to consider the opportunity that is now '
uiioniea tne farmer to jret into trie
pure blood frame. Mr. Farmer, wheth

man, and has the confidence of the
people especially the farmers of which
he is one.

vne nave always uvea to meet a reai
soldier who could deliver the goods,
that is, something like you read about

have reference was Captain Paul Box
of the British Royal Air Forces. We
could not worm very much out of the
gentleman but we could get a amatteiV
ing of Possehendaele Ridge and VJmy
and Ypres. Box looked like any other
human &iw! we could hardly believe
this mild mannered young fellow had
been through the hell that makes or
I,;saks men. He was traveling with
Raymond ileaghie, traveling represen
tative of the Byrne and Hammer com
pany of Omaha,
