The campaign for the promotion of the dairy industry in Nebraska Is growing in strength daily. Having its inception in Omaha, and backed by the Chamber of Commerce, it is only natural that the progressive business concerns of Omaha should be enthused. One of the most valuable contribu tions to tlte literature of the com paign is furnished by the Acorn Press in the shape of a handsomely printed folder dealing with two sub jects closely allied, "Agriculture, the Paymaster in 'Nebraska," and "The Milk Cow Is Queen in Nebraska." The Acorn Press issues a monthly folder known as The Acorn. It is always a work of art. This is true in increased measure of the most re cent issue of this folder because it combines rare artistic beauty with a comprehensive though brief reference to Nebraska's fundamental industries —agriculture and dairying. Impendent Upon Farming. “Upon agriculture all other Indus tries of the middle west depend," says The Acorn. “The sooner we fully realise this fact, the sooner we will be able to regain our lost ground and return to normal condition". Is there any business in Omaha that is inde pendent of agriculture? As this Is the fact of the matter, it behooves r\ery one of us concerned with the future success of Omaha to face the facts ant! do what we can to assist the farmer, the livestock breeder and the dairyman to 'come back.’ This result cannot be obtained through vague promises of something help ful in the future, but must come through definite suggestions and ac tual help that will assist the farmer to make more money for himself Just where to begin is a problem that must he solved by each indi vidual industry through the channels with which such industry is most familiar. That the farmer did not give up the conflict* a year or more ago Is positive proof that he has dualities which are not to he found in ordinary business enterprises out side of agriculture. Let’s help the fanner, lend him a hand so he may get back 'on top’ again, and in so do ing we will Indirectly help ourselves. The milk and cow campaign now in pregress should receive our unstint ed support, for it Is a long step in the right direction. Where the milk cow Is, there agriculture flourishes.’’ Ths very attractiveness of this brochure will lend an emphasis to the message it contains, and the message as above quoted should have a direct appeal to every business institution throughout the entire state. But It Is the message concerning Bossle Cow that carries the real "punch" and which is worthy of ,re production in every newspaper in Ne braska. The more it is impressed upon the public mind, the greater will be the Impetus to the dairying cam paign 1‘nder the caption, "The Milk Cow Is Queen in Nebraska.” The Acorn sends forth the following: "Tho popular slogan, 'Corn Is King In Nebraska,' may well he coupled with another slogan, 'The Milk Cow is Queen In Nebraska.' Speaking in aggregate terms of millions of dollars for milk and butter in Nebraska is perhapsl above the conception of the ordinary Individual, and few business men themselves comprehend the fact that such Is the Income of the humble milk cow. Truth Borne Out. The truth of The Acorn's assertion Is horn out by a study of the financial reports from Minnesota and Wiscon sin, states where the dairy industry has been highly developed. Other phases of the dairying indus try ns allied with agriculture, are emphasized In the brochure. Says Ths Acorn: "Milk Is one farm crop which does not rob the soil of plant food. The crops of corn and alfalfa for which Nebraska farms are famous when fed to the milk cow hrlng hack profits which may he figured In hundreds of per cent over what they would bring on the market ns corn and alfalfa " The Acorn also calls attention to the byproducts, always worth con sidering. Skimmed milk may be fed fresh to calves and weanling pigs, or It may be converted Into cottage cheese and fed to poultry with won derful results. And to the cream check the Acorn pays the following deserved tribute: "Within the last two years especial ly the cream check has meant more HAIR BEAUTY “Makes Hair Grow” LUMCO stops dandruff, falling hair, itching-scalp, scalp-eczema, and will grow a thick, healthy vigorous head of hair. Not sticky or greasy. Any Drug Store. Lumpkin Products Co., Kimball, Neb. to the farmer than any other income, and in many cases Is the only Income he has enjoyed. The cream check is practically all profit and the by products have a value which la diffi cult to compute In dollars and cents, but any practical farmer will aay that they are indispensable on the diversi fied farm. T,et's give the miik cow her just due and credit to her ac count the major share of the praise she deserves." The city of Omaha is not only anxious but willing to promote the dairy industry in Nebraska, and its business men are heartily committed to furthering *lhe present campaign for the promotion of the industry. All who are interested—and every worth while citizen is interested—would do well to secure from The Acorn Press it copy of The Acorn dedicated to agri culture and dairying. Handsome enough, artistic enough, In fact, to be worthy of preservation among art treasures, this Issue of The Acorn is doubly valuable because of its timely contribution to the campaign.
