throughout the county. Iletter and
more positive results can be obtain
ed if a large number of farmers co
operate in these experiments.
The object of these cooperative ex
periments Is to find out and prove
what the best farming practices are
for Box Butte county. Results may
be secured In a single experiment
that may be misleading. There are
several reasons for this, for In order
to gain anything by an experiment,
all factors must be alike except the
one to be determined. For Instance,
if the object Is to determine if thick
or thin planting of potatoes Is the
most profitable, the same variety
must be planted In the same kind of
soil, which has been cropped previ
ously in the same manner and seed
bed prepared In the same way.
The tests must be started with
the opening of spring work and if
you can cooperate in any lines of the
work suggested on the enclosed
blank, please Indicate by checking
one or more and then return the

blank to this office at once. The
more that try the same experiment,
the more definite results ran be se
cured. If there are other lines of work
that you think should be tried out,
I would be very glad to get the sug
gestion. Each member should feel
that he has a part to do In this
work, for It Is only by the hearty co
operation of all that the work ran be
successfully carried on.
As soon as the rodaa are passable,
It Is my purpose to get In personal
touch with you on your own farm.
At present I take this means of
reaching you. and in the meantime
your continued Interest and coopera
tion will work toward the future suc
cess of the work nderlnken."
Enclosed with the letter was a
blank asking whether or not the
fanner Is In a position to try experi
ments during this season on ques
tions under the following beads:
Soil experiments, corn experiments,
forage and silage crops, potatoes,
wheat, oats, hurley, rye and emmer,
farm management problems, boys'
and girls' club work, farmers' clubs,
etc. This blan k is to he tilled out
and returned to Mr. Seidell.
EVERY TOWN'S "400"
Some Plain Remarks Regarding Gen
uine Culture and Those Who
Possess Only the Sham
(Contributed)
Every borough, town and city has
its "Four Hundred." From the town
of a hundred residents to the city of
three million there Is the Inevitable
"Four Hundred." This Four Hun
dred is comprised principally of the
moneyed people of the different lo
calities; those who, favored by for
tune, have been the recipients ot the
advantages of college, travel and as
sociation. Having no purpose in life
their education, travel and associa
tion amounts to nothing. In the end
all that the idle rich know is hunt
ing. Ashing, horses, automoblllng,
yachting, etc.
Now this Is what they know, and
these same ones decree that In so
ciety "shop" must not be discussed;
and "shop" Is but a discussion of
what each Individual !s doing in the
world, and the things that the idle
rich know and talk about are the
very things that make up their
round of dally activity and constitute
the shop talk of the idle rich.
In the smaller towns or cities we
do not have so much of the idle rich
element, but we do have what Is al
most worse, those who ape the ways
and manners and customs of the idle
rich; those who accept the stamp of
the established to such an extent that
not having hunting and Ashing, or
the talk, of that higher (?) society to
discuss, must resort to some silly,
empty, Inane geography game, try
ing with might and main to discover
all the Ills and aches contained In a
doctor's medical book from the abre
vlatlons of the names of the different
states of the Union; a game worthy
of third and fourth grade school
children; or some other equally fool
ish guessing game of as Inane a qual
ity as "How old la Ann".
But of course it was forgotten that
these are our patrons of art. With-
nut thn etnntv "nha" and "iihn" (hut
come floating through the balls of
the art galleries from these richly
gowned, Jewel-bedecked people,
painting could not thrive. And as to
music well they must have some of
that while they "tat" or crochet or
compare their patterns. The Four
Hundred of New York or any of the
large cities go out during the per
formance of an opera and return
when the lights are turned on simply
to exhibit their flnery. The Four
Hundred of Denver clamored for
grand opera, and when It was pro
cured for them were conspicuous by
their absence, and the opera com
pany failed, and those who were In
strumental In securing the company
lost heavily.
The Four Hundred of of well
well, why not? The Four Hundred
of Alliance where were they on the
night of the Royal Gwent Singers;
where were they when the superior
concerts of the School of Music were
given? Was there a geography or
some guessing game going on then? j
When the School of Music gives their
Anal and best concert will those pro
fessing a love for music remain away
on the night of April 16? It Is a
deplorable fact that it is the pupils
of the School of Music and their par
ents who are most negligent In
grasping that greatest of advantages
for musical training, namely, the
hearing of the best productions of all
times. It is high time that we wake
up to the opportunities at hand. It
Is time that we became real lovers
of music and not pretenders.

The Oruaha Nebruskan, in its is

March 11 issue of The Herald:
The Alliance. Nebr, Herald prints
a Ane special edition devoted largely
to "Omaha the Gate City of the
West." It Is a handsome publica
tion and a splendid advertisement for
this city. It would be well if other
Nebraska papers found it convenient
to follow the good example set by the
Alliance Herald. Such publications
do much to Improve the relations be

of I. O.O. F. Wa Much Knjoy
ed by Those Who Attended
(Written for The Herald by Prof.
Ralph R. I'nlacke)
At the rate that concerts of the
"worth while" stamp are being pro
cured for the Alliance people there
should no longer be heard the com
plaint that good things are never to
be heard In Alliance. And with the
same glorious Indifference that the
American audiences have for their
national hymns, these concerts of ed
ucational value- are being passed up
by the very ones who need them the
most; by those who would gain the
greatest benefit I hat. musical produc
tions have to offer; to say ntohlng of
those who would gain an evening of
the keenest enjoyment from the
mere music. The Itoyal Gwont
Singers were every one of them art
ists, each possessing a voice of such
beautiful quality and training as to
qualify him for solo work. Their en
semble was given with a surety and
fervor that Immediately relieved one
of the suspense that they were not
sure of themselves. Their humor
ous songs were works of art and
there was not a cheap number In the
whole program, not even "Tlpper
ary", for It was given wit ba keen In
sight Into the possibilities of artistic
effects in even popular songs.
The bass solo rendered by O. B.
Lane gave him opportunity to exhib
it the range and power of his voice.
He possesses a voice of a rich reson
ant quality and he sings with great
feeling and expression. The tenor
solo by Uwynn Jones was rendered
In a most artistic style. He passess
es a voice of the clearest quality with
a high range, taking a high B flat
without resorting to the use of the
falsetto. His reception by the audi
ence proved the success of his work.
Talfa Jones, the baritone, showed his
ability as a soloist of serious work
and In humorous songs, of which he
was given considerable to do. He
possesses a rich voice of 'resonant
quality and an extremely wide range.
His singing Is full of expression and
energy, and in all his work every
thing was done In repose. Ben Da
vis showed a considerable amount of
dramatic power la his "Good Bye"
song. The Italian Salad was per
haps as novel a song as was ever
heard here. It was a conglomerate
arrangement of musical terms set to
music of operatic style and kept
those who could appreciate It -in a
state of uproar The "Hallelujah
Chorus" was a Atting closing num
ber, and In this they showed their
skill In ensemble work and their
ability In handling a classical com
position. The members of the I. O. O. F.
are to be congratulated and highly
commended in bringing to Alliance
so high class singers and In under
taking as big a proposition as that
must have been. It Is desired that
other lodges and societies will fol
low In the same path for the raising
of the musical Btandurd of Alliance.
