POTASH INDUSTRY
NOW THREATENED
WITH EXTINCTION
AGREEMENT WITH GERMAN RE

' "Therpotash industry of western Ne
braska, which during the war came to
ibe one of the most important products
of the state, is now threatened with
extinction. The Plants at Antioch,
.Lakeside und Hoffland have been
doing little or nothing the paRt year,
but the men behind the industry havej
r-w i . . i " i I
eiaa nopes mat congress wouia come vu
the rescue with adequate tariff protec
tion to enable the plants to run again,
.high as during the big days of the in
dustry. The Omaha Bee yesterday
discussed the situation editorially as
.follows: ,
"ine potash industry arose in the
TUnited States in 1914, after the war
Biad cut off-imports from Germany,
even though the prices were not so
Nebraska, with its alkali lakes in the
.-sandhills, leaped into 'first rank as' the
iproducer of this fertiliser material. By
1917 the district about Alliance was
(supplying 45 per cent of the potash
.produced In the United States. From
the brine of these Nebraska ponds
1,053 tons of crude potash were
.secured in that year.
, "Now, with prices lowered, and Ger
many with its immense beds of potash
isalts, estimated sufficient to supply
the world for 2,000 years at the pres
ent rate of consumption, the Nebraska
Txititsh industrv is at a standstill.
Costs of labor, supplies and fuel are
greater here than in Germany, and it
1 "is probable that it costs more to move
the product from Nebraska to tbe
wornout fields of the Atlantic coast
- .than from Germany.
"At all events, the American potash
industry which boomed so a few year3
.atro is now threatened with extinction.
.Some of the disadvantageous factors
.in the cost of production might be im
proved bv new chemical processes or
otherwise, but according to the charge

Five or six automobile loads of
members of the Alliance volunteer
fire department left this afternoon for
Gering, where they will pay a social
call upon the fire department ! that
place. The Gering1 bunch came to Al

proved a decided success.. Following
the play, the Gering men and women
were enetrtained at the armory and
later with a feed at the Palm Room.

Why Shop Early?
It is a fair question. Any one can
find does find, every day in the month
and almost every hour in the day
pressing reasons for deferring Christ
mas shopping until it shall be more
convenient in point of time or money.
Why not, then, demand real, substan
tial reasons for the annual urge "Shop
Early" which, at this time of the
month, is due for paraphrasing into
the older American admonition, "Do it
now," supplemented with Do it early
in the day.
The many business interests which7,
within' the past few years have done
their utmost to impress the , public
with the wisdom of early Christmas
shopping, have reviewed in detail the
advantages accruing, to the shoppers
as well as to the employes of the
stores. But we are strong for senti
ment in the United States, and the peo
ple at large, with the national instinct
dominant, have seen the tired sales
girl as the only figure in the picture.
Well, it's all there, and it's all true.
The sales girl does get very tired.
She does need every bit of help the
ing congestion of trade that commonly
develops during and just prior to
Christmas week.
But the public's burdens and handi
caps, which arise from its tendency to
neglect its own welfare, come nearer
home and are well worthy of sober
consideration even of sentiment. .
Selections Are Better.'
The stores, as a rule, do everything
within their power to present, well in
advance of the holidays, the widest
variety of holiday merchandise. It is
a service to the public that costs real
money in addition to much thought and
care. Early investment of capital, re

money for hurried purchases which
have been neither well weighed nor
well selected.
If we, as a people, are prone to be
moved by sentiment, we are also pe
culiarly alive to the significance of
figures. Suppose we supplement the
sympathy we feel for the sales girl,
whom we so callousy overwork, with
some figures that come mighty near
home to ourselves:
, The yearly volume of sales in the
department stores, specialty shops and
dry iroojs stores of the United States
is $7,000,000,000 Of that immense
sum 14 percent, or about f 1,000,000,,
OOOis laid, put in the month of Decern-ber-ry,
close to $50 for every fam
ily m the United States. Any grown
person, can approximate, in the in
stance, of his or her own family, what
percentage goes for "Christmas presents."-
1 if no more than one-half $25
per family, $500,000,000 in the aggre
gate ris so spent, it equals the sum
(aid out in any one of several months
it the year for what are considered
:ommon necessities. Yet every other
.ialf billion out of the seven billions is
axpended with the utmost forethought
and care in selection. Then why not
this half billion for our Christmas
gifts?.
-.'.If Spend to Best Advantage.
Afhy not, then, 'shop- early, sys
tematically, carefully, for one s own
satisfaction and, what is more impor
tant in shopping of this kind, for the
real satisfaction of our kin and our
friends? " Why not spend our $500,
000,000 if that is a fair estimate to
our own very beat advantage, instead
of delaying, guessing and, in the end,
taking the leavings 01 tne tnousanas
who have already had their pick of the
best!
For .there are thousands of early
shoppers now, many thousands, who
shop not only early in the pre-Christ-mas
season but early in the day. They
are the shrewd shoppers who have ob
served that stocks are always com
plete, well ordered, freshest in the
forenoon, and that the sales girl is
then at her best and brightest for their
Wrvice. !
' Their numbers are not now restrict
ed to our own country. v The Shop
Early t movement has extended to
CAtiada Enirland. Scotland and even
to New Zealand, The" substantial
reasons, backing up the desire which
is so anrnlv Justified to relieve retail
sales forces of needless over work,
have given it international scope.
It may be because the pounds, shill
ings and pence are scarcer there than
tha dollar is here. But there are a
pood many millions of us in the United
States, these days, who have reason
enough to make a dollar go as far us it
mn. And half a billion of them are
surely worthy of careful expenditure
and early, selective shopping, io ' Do
Your Christmas Shopping Early" is
true wisdom. -..-

Commissioners
Decide Not to
Present Petition
The three Box Butte county com
missioners, who attended the conven
tion of county officers at Omaha last
week, took with them the huge peti
tion, signed by between two and three
thousand Box Butte county citizens,
asking that the so-called Hashman
road be approved for sate aid. The
commissioners stopped in at the Lin
coln headquarters of State Engineer
Johnson, out decided not to present
the petition.
"We discovered," said one of the
board, "that petitions have very lit
tle weight with the state engineer's
office, and after discussing road, prob
lems with commissioners from o'Jher
counties, decided that the state eni

approved without their sanction, nor

will do our best to get the roads de
sired by the taxpayers, but if the state
board decides to fight us, we'll do the
best we can, that's all. We'll probably
be. blamed for it, but our hands are
tied."
Another member of the board tells
an interesting story of a C harry
county commissioner, who explained
how his county was forced to spend
over- (400,000 for a twenty-four-mile
stretch of road, the original contract
price of which was $200,000. This
man had to fight a good many objec
tions before he was allowed to tell
his story, and even then the state press
put a soft pedal on the Incident, .

AWAY WITH Sill
ATIIEMINGFORD
WrORK AN OLD SCHEME AT THE!
LOCK WOOD STORE
I
One Engages Attention of Clerk While
Two Others Help Themselves
to the Merchandise ,
Three Mexicans worked an old game
at "the Lock wood store in Uemingford
early, Monday morning, and got away
with several bolts 01 silk, valued at
about $300. The three of them en-.
tered the store about 9 a. m., at a
time when there was only one clerk
on duty. One of them purchased
tome cold meats and other materials
fer a lunch, and while the clerk's at
tention was held, the . two others
helped themselves to merchandise,
principally silks. Several bolts were
discovered missing out not until some
time later. ' " .. '
Marshall S. A. Grim of Ueming
ford arrived late in the afternoon, and
with Sheriff Miller made a search of
the bunk ears of little Mexico seeking
the stolen silk. A thorough search of
the cars was made, and a number of
Mexicans examined, but the search
was without results.
Later- in the evening word was re
ceived from Crawford that some Mex
icans had been apprehended, their de
scription tallying with the Ueming
ford thieves. Marshall Grimes left for
Crawford to identify the stuff and
bring back the prisoners.
The same stunt has been worked at
two or three Alliance stores, and in
most of the cases has proved a quite
effective method of shoplifting.
Three Mexicans were brought back
from Crawford this morning. They
gave the names of Carlos Rodriguez,
Jose A. Montes and Enrique M. Fovar,
and told the officers they had been
working in Gering and Scottobluif.
The trio denied they had ever been
in Hemingford. as well as any knowl
edge of the robbery. None of the
stolen stuff was recovered. The n en
were cross-examineu on arrival uj
County Attorney Basye, and are being
held for further investigation.
