ABOUT THAT
"CAR LOAD"
OF
"Kurtzmann" Pianos
Appropriation Wanted to
Advertise Nebraska
BBffltatEiSBijKEMlBaBaMflBS Kg
That special Car Load of "Kurtzmann" Pianos has already been unloaded in Alliance.
There were SIXTEEN pianos in that car, and a goodly iwrtion of them are NOW on exhibition on the floors of our Alliance
establishment.
In several large announcements recently, we TOLD you that these were SPECIALpianos: purchased SPECIALLY for our
Alliance store; to be sold at SPECIAL prices to early comers.
Did you SEE these instruments yet? NOV Well then, you SHOULD see them if you have an ear for tone, an eye for beauty,
a sense for genuine values.
The "Kurtzmann"' people of New York City BUILT these pianos, and they builded even better than they USUALLY build,
and THAT is saying a GREAT deal.
The "Kurtzmann" makers are as anxious as WE to get a foothold in Box Butte county, they KNOW there will be hundreds
of instruments sold in your neighborhood in the next few seasons, and they are AMBITIOUS enough to want THEIR piano to be
the MOST prevalent.
And the "Kurtzmann" people gave us substantial assistance on this car load of instruments; they shaded the price low enough
so that we can afford to "cut into the Alliance market" by "cutting into the price of pianos."
We don't know as we will EVER be able to quote the SAME prices again on pianos of this SPECIAL grade; we don't know
HEN handsomer case designs will bp put on the market by ANY maker; we don't promise to ever again furnish you as exquisite
a toned instrument at ANY price.
THIS forms a REMARKABLE Christmas Opportunity for you; youCAN afford the price we ASK for these " Kurtzmann"
pianos; you CAN meet the terms we will arrange if you make up your mind to BUY.
There are "young folks' in your home, no doubt. They will go into ECSTA01ES of delight over a piano as good as ANY of
these "Kurtzmanns,'. Why not buy a GOOD instrument for them? If you are possessed of only a "comfortable" amount of monev
you can even then LET GO of some of it if it means PLEASURE for YOU and YOURS.
Your son or daughter has the NATURAL craving to be accomplished; to be able to SHINE as an entertainer in society; a
qualified musician. How are they going to go about it if they are denied a FIRST CLASS piano to learn upon.
Seek out our Alliance store as EARLY as you CAN. Ask Mrs. J. T. Wiker, our local manager, to show you these SPECIAL
"Kurtzmanns." Have vour expert musician friends PLAY a few selections upon them. KNOW what a delightful CHRISTMAS
GIFT one of these instruments would MAKE, and LEARN what a modest figure is asked for them.
But do it QUICKLY! Others have their eyes uon this choice lot of ' sixteen." They will not remain UNSOLD very
It's Your chance. YOUR bargain opportunity on the KIND of a piano you SHOULD have in your HOME.
How about It? Will you act now?

My Dear Mr. Weillup: I write to let you know that I have arrived safely. Have seen two-thirds of
your ground and find it level a6 far as the eye can see. On almost any 10-aere tract there is enough clear ground
for anyone to 6tart truck gardening at once. The orange and grapefruit trees are still loaded with fruit. About
one-third was lost by the storm. There must have been quite a bit of waterfall here. I have chosen tract No. .',
as I want a quick return, so I can get my family out here. The plow goes in the ground next Tuesday. I will
have to drain my place a little, for there is some water on it. This is a fine climate and country It has Cali
fornia beat a mile. Anyone that wants to buy a place need not go any further than this to find the ideal spot.
The town is slow, the people are a dreamy sort of lot. The grapefruit, pineapples, and all other fruit and vege
tables are raised by people from other states. I understand Putnam has sent a box of fruit your way. Every
thing you say in your ads is the truth about this place. I think that parties who are willing to work have a gold
mine here. Write to Acline. Yours truly. A. VAN DAM. Acline, Florida.

A Show of the West.
Box Butte and other counties of
northwestern Nebraska should be rep
resented at the Western Lands Pro
ducts Exhibit, to be held in Omaha.
January iH to. 28, in the Auditorium.,
which has iy.ooo square feet of exhibit
space- The National Corn Show which
was held so successfully in the Ne
braska metropolis, but which will not
be held there this year, opened the
eveB of many Nebraskans to the value
of a mid-winter educational show of
agricultural products, and some of them
have deterriiined not to let the idea die
out.
The value to this country of the
Western Land Products Exhibit will,
no doubt, be much greater than that of
the National Corn Show, valuable as
that was. Limited as the Western
Land Products Exhibit is to the exhib
its of the states west of the Missouri
river, such a show is aimed to better
serve the purpose of boosting the west
ern country by giving a graphic lesson
under one roof of the possibilities of
the lands between the river and the
Sierra Nevadas.
The idea of the promoters of this
latest ot western enterprises is to bring
together such honest representative ex
hibits from western states and districts
as will give a visitor a clear idea of
what is possible on western lands with
out necessity of traveling thousands of
miles to see irrigation projects, new
farm lands, dry farming regions and
old and well developed farms iu Ne
braska, South Dakota and Kansas.
The Western Land Products Exhibit
will be sort of a panorama of the coun
try west of the Missouri river with such
displays of products as will give any
one an intelligent idea of each section
of the country where farming or fruit
growing is the principal industry.
We suggest that readers of The Her
ald who desire further information
about the Western Land Products Ex
hibit write to Mr. W- O. Paisley, gen
eral manager, Omaha.

Pi-. kc y Cogswell, Secretary.
Now that the members of the next
legislature have been elected and the
time Idi the convening ot legislature
bring mily about a month away, various
01 ganiialious and individuals who are
interested in securing legislation are
after the new members oi the Nebraska
assembly. And it is right that they
should pfOptfW present their wishes in
aoctl matteis. Persons interested in
direct legislation, county option,
amendment lo the primary law oi the
state, good toads, etc., all want the
matters in which they are especially
interested pushed to the front.
The editor of this paper, in common
with the large majority o( the people of
this state, is interested in the above
mentioned matters; but there is another
matter, about which not so much has
been said and to which not so much at
tention has been given by the people
generally, and that in the movemeut to
secure au adequate appropriation from
the legislature to advertise this great
state, and thus secure immigration witli
a view to further develop agriculture
and manufacturing industries. An ap
propriation for such purpose, properly
expended, would undoubtedly give a
wonderful stimulus in adding to our
population well-to-do and industrious
pet sons, the kind of ieople that are
needed to develop the state's latent re
sources. Other western states have expended
literal sums of money in dvatliaillf,
while tlir advertising of Nebraska is
without shite support, except what is
done through the Bureau of Labor and
Industrial Statistics, for which an ap
propriation of something like
per year is made- Agricultural, mur
ine, and manufacturing industries of
Colorado are being rapidly developed,
and arc adding thousands of the best
clasa of citizena to the population of
the "Centennial State." Kansas has
been a liberal advertiser, and not only
has a population much larger than Ne
braska, but a imputation larger in pro
portion to size. In fart, judging from
what has already been learned from
this yeai a census, this state has a pop
ulation 100,000 less in proportion to
size than the "Jay Hawk" state.
While Nebraska has a considerable ter
ntuiv composed of sand hills, which
r an hardly be expected to support a
dense population, Kansas has as
large a tertitory that is visited almost
fvciv year with drouth and swept by
hot winds. In short, Kansas has a
much larger population than Nebraska
in proportion to the possibilities of de
velopment. The Nebraska State Association of
Commercial Clubs and the Nebraska
Pratt Association have taken action
urging the next legislature to make an
appropriation for the purpose above
mentioned, and we take pleasure in co
operating in trying to bring about the
desiietl action. For any further infor
mation regarding the necessity of the
appropriation of the work planned bv
the committee appointed by the Ne
braska State Association of Com
mercial Clubs to take up this work,
readers of The Herald are requested to
write Will A- Campbell, chairman,

braska. Not Box Butte Couuty
A Long Island farmer heard a noiae
one night, and thinking that the wagon
spoke he went out to investigate. He
discovered that the wagon was tongue
tied, and that he had merely heard
Long Island Sound. Hearing at an
other time a commotion near a piece of
timber not far trom the beach, and
fearing that it was smugglers or pirates
he went out to frighten them away bv
having the hickory bark. The hickory
failed, but he found that the dog-wood
succeed- However, it turned out to be
simply an ocean squall-
