FREMONT PLANS FOR
THE TRACTOR SHOW
When Hotels Fill Up, Visitors
May Sleep in Pullman
Oara.
FREE MELON DAY ON LIST
Nobody sleeps on the ground at
the Farm Tractor show at Fremont,
August 7 to 11, of this year, even
though the crowd should be 150,000,
as Manager A. E. Hildebrand believes
it will.
, "Nobody sleeps on the grounds,"
that is the slogan of the Fremont peo
ple, of the show management, and the
Chicago & Northwestern and the
Union Pacific Railroad companies.
Three hundred homes of Fremont
people are already listed as available
with rooms to take care of exhibitors
and visitors when the hotel facilities
begin to prove inadequate.
Pullmans for Visitora.
The two railroad companies have
offered the management to switch off
as many Pullman cars as needed for
sleeping facilities and let them stand
on the sidings in Fremont during the
show, or as long as the crowd can fill
the berths at night.
Mr. Hildebrand, who is associated
with The Twentieth Century Farmer
of Omaha, is managing the circuit of
tractor shows this year, as he has In
the past. He has returned to Omaha
from a tour of the eight cities where
the tractor shows are to be held this
vear and leaves next week for Dallas,
Tex., where the first show of the cir
cuit starts July 17.
"The indications are there will be
over 100 exhibitors this year," said
Mr. Hildebrand, "as against forty last
year. There are fully twenty-five new
types of tractors already listed that
will he shown at Fremont this year.
"Among these will be a half dozen
new motor cultivators, something ab
solutely new in the line of tractors.
They are a small light tractor with
cultivator attachments for both single
and double row work.
To Work In Corn Field.
"The plan is to lease some fields
of late corn at Fremont, so that these
tractors may demonstrate the work of
cultivating and laying by corn during
the show. Ihey arc wondertui little
machines and cost between $150 and
$.100 each, just about the cost of a
team of horses.
"The tendency among the farmers
now-a-days is to want not only their
large tractor for the heavy work of
the farm, but want also a small light
tractor to do the light quick work,
such as cultivating corn.
"This same' tractor which operates
a cultivator is made so that it can be
attached to operate a two-row lister
or a corn planter. It thus becomes an
all-round working team.' "
Frog bakes and fish bakes are
planned by the Fremonters for enter
tainment and again the Fremont peo
ple are planning to have two carloads
of watermelons shipped in to be given
away to the visitors on melon day.
In other words, Fremont expects to
bend every effort again to make
tilings as pleasant to the visitors as it
has in the past.
Want Another Accounting
Of Brodegaard Affairs
M. M. Soule and George H, Mc
Connell, stockholders, filed suit in
district court asking an accounting of
the affairs of the Brodegaard jew
elry stores, the appointment of a re
ceiver and an injunction against the
officers to prevent them from dispos
ing of the assets pending the decision
on the suit.
The defendants are Brodegaard
jewelry stores, Fred Brodegaard, V.
G. Ure and Paul W. Kuhns.
The concern does a large consign
ment business in jewelry in hundreds
of towns in Nebraska and Iowa. The
petition states it has $250,000 worth
of goods out at these places on con
signment. The business was placed in a trus
teeship over a year ago. The present
plaintiffs allege the defendants have
worked in favor of certain creditors
to give them more than their share
of the assets and that they have been
extravagant in administering the
company's affairs.
Directors named are Fred and Al
fred Brodegaard, Axel Anderson, J.
J. Dreycr and W. G. Ure.
