GREAT FARMERS INSTITUTE
Very Large Attendance Despite the
Unfavorable Weather and by Far the
Largest and Most Numerous Ex
hibit Ever Made in a County In
stitute
The Tribune takes more than pass
ing pleasure in pronouncing the Farm
ers Institute and Childrens Con
tests held in McCook last Thursday
as a splendid and gratifying success
Despite the weather there was a
large attendance showing the deep
and wide reaching interest the peo
ple of the county have in this affair
The entries totaled two or three
times more than have ever been
made in these contests in the past
so that it was practically impossible
to give prizes in each and every in
stance
The exhibit made was a source of
constant wonderment to all who saw
and they crowded the house all day
long
The formal program of the day
was as follows
Afternoon Session

The addresses of Dr Condra both
afternoon and evening were very in
structive and illuminating couched in
understandable language and favor
ing the peoples side of the question
as advanced by Theodore Roosevelt
He exhibited a map of Nebraska de
fined the subject as applying to this
state its soil climate altitude pre
cipitation etc
State Inspector Gregory added to
the sessions
Messrs Bolles and Hiersekorn were
captains of industry in preparing for
the affair and in making the agricul
tural exhibit They are both entitled
to much credit
Mrs S D Bolles Jr showed es
pecial aptitude and skill in arrang
ing the display of grasses and in ar
ranging and preparing banners etc
The teachers of the Indianola Dan
bury and Marion schools were all
present
The McCook public schools were
closed to give the pupils an opportu
ity to take in the exhibit
And Miss Bettcher county super
intendent must take her share of
credit for hard work done and suc
cess accomplished
Under Southern Skies
The above production at the Tem
ple Monday evening was one of the

NEW DEPARTURE
American Beet Sugar Company Will
Silo Rushing in All Beets
The American Beet Sugar Company
has issued open orders to its many
growers for immediate delivery of
their crop of beets and in a few days
it will be siloing from 12000 to 14000
tons at its main delivery stations of
Overton Dar and Hershey
This is a new departure on the part
of the company in handling the beet
crop and if it is a success as the
company has every reason to believe
it will be it will eliminate the neces
sity of the farmer having to do this
work and will also enable him to har
vest his entire crop as fast as possi
ble starting just after Oct 5 each
year thereby taking no chances what
ever in losing his crop by freezing or
by the roads being so bad that haul
ing would be impossible which is
more or less in the months of No
vember and December
In this way the harvest of the beet
crop will compare favorably with that
of any other crop that is grown be
sides giving the grower the proceds
from his beets at least two months
earlier than if he were siloing them
himself
It is hoped that this mode of silo
ing will be a success and if it is will
no doubt influence a large number of
farmers to grow sugar beets who are
not growing them at the present
time Grand Island Daily Independ

FACULTY Indianola Loses to McCook by Big
And the Foo Ball Team at the High
School Building
On Saturday evening the senior
class gave a halloween party to the
fom ball team and faculty at the High
Sclifci building Everything jn con
nection with the entertainment was
dene in regular halloween style The
assembl room halls and laboratory
vero decorated with pumpkins black
cats witches and corn In one come
of the assembly room a very pretty
piece of decoration was worked out
in the high school colors scarlet and
cream and foot balls As the guests
came they were met in front of the
portico by witches and ghosts and
silently conducted up through the
dark halls lighted with pumpkins to
the large assembly room where they
were served with free lunch and had
their fortunes told In the center of
the room was a large witches kettle
the room was a large witchs kettle
soon as all had gone through pre
liminary introductions each one pre
sent was required to do some special
stunt in an extemporaneous manner
This part of the entertainment was
productive of much fun and amusement
and everyone present had to bob for
apples and even the more sedate and
dignified members of the faculty seem
ed to enjoy this part of the program
very much
The laboratory of the high school
was very daintily decorated in scar
let and cream and lighted with pump
kins and scarlet lights A dainty
course of refreshments was served
consisting of sandwiches coffee ice
cream and cake The plates and ta
bles were decorated with black cats
and witches During this part of the
entertainment various members of the
foot ball team and faculty were called
upon to give impromptu toasts All of
these toasts were along the lighter vein
and much enjoyed by those present
After refreshments had been served
all of the company gathered around
the witchs kettle with all the lights
turned out and each one present was
called to tell a ghost story- Along
in the small hours of the morning
about the time when witches and ghost
usually appear the company disband
ed Much credit is due the senior
class for the splendid entertainment
and a good time was thoroughly en
joyed by all there
Score
Despite the wind and dust storm
last Thursday a good sized crowd
went over to the East Ward grounds
to see the game of foot ball between
McCook and Indianola High Schools
McCook won the toss and took the
north goal giving the kick off to In
dianola Within two minutes after
the game started without a fumble
the McCook team pushed Indianola
over the goal line for the touch down
While the teams of the two schools
were about even in weight it was
soon evident that they were not
equally matched in skill During the
remainder of the first half the ball
was at no time in McCooks territo
ry With forward passes which Ar
cher had worked out for this game
the score was run up to 32 to 0
at the end of the first half Two
of the Indianola players being slight
ly injured their team gave up the
game and refused to play it out It
is hard to tell what the score might
have been had the game been finish
ed The two boys slightly injured
in this game both played through the
game at Culbertson two days after
ward where Indianola defeated Cul
bertson with a score of 22 to 3
