Dean M. Gillespie, the representa
tive for the White Company, who
recently sold a White roadster to
Wm. Kin of Alliance, was In the
city today. In an Interview with a
Herald reporter he said, "I am very
anxious to aee a White fire truck
purchased by the city for the Alll
nnce Fire Department. The White
Company makes more trucks than
any other company in the United
SttUes. The U. S. government has
100 trucks in use by the war and
other departments. The Standard
Oil Company uses 119 White trucks;
the war department of the Russian
government uses 11 and the war de
partments of many other European
powers use White trucks, and it is
a well known fart that the great
powers of the world never spare
time or expense when choosing equip
ment for their war departments.
"The main object in a flre truck,"
Mr. Gillespie continued, "Is to get
to the flre and do the work for
which Intended, that of extinguish
ing the fire. In a White truck you
Ret the result of years of experience
In truck building and the output of
a factory which builds the trucks
thruout not Just assembling them, j
You can get any equipment desired
on a White fire truck so that in ad
dition to getting the best of truck
chassis you can also have any make
of fire fighting equipment you may
desire. The White Company will
handle the Alliance deal direct, sav
ing the usual agent's commission,
should the city purchase a White
truck. We welcome the fullest In
vestigation and would suggest that
the proposition be fully investigated
by a special committee before a pur
chase is made by the city council.
You will find White fire trucks with
equipments of several kinds in use
by nearly every large city lire depart
ment in the country. The smaller
towns, like Alliance, find that by
dealing direct with the factory they
can be purchased at almost as low
a price as the inferior trucks and
that they are more economical to
operate and can always be depended
upon to get to the fire and do the
required work when they get there.
The best Is the cheapest in the long
run. Efficiency and ability to do
the work should be given serious
consideration. The fine roadster
now being used by Mr. King is an
example of the fine product of the
White factory."
Mr. Gillespie leaves for Montana
tonight.

HELP YOUR EASTERN FRIEND
LEAVE HIS RENTED FARM
VETEKANS HOLD CAMP FIRE
Write your friends back East telling them about the money they can
make in dairy farming on low-priced or homestead lands In the West.
Give us their names and addresses that we also may inform them how
they can prosper in this industry if they are the right kind of farmers.
We all know that every new farmer Is a source of wealth in your county,
and his cream, poultry and hogs helps business about you.
We are ready to co-operate with your commercial club or county
publicity bureau towards the settlement of your county. Let us get to
gether and settle It. There Is a large area in the West whose value and
use was not known until the silo made dairy framing possible.
A new settler who is a dairy farmer is bound to make a good living
and the increased value of his land is certain to follow. County co-opt ra
tion during the next few years Is what Is going
to hold new settlers. We are ready to help you
find them and I will be glad to get in touch with
those interested in this Joint endeavor.
