We wonder if the farmers in our
vicinity know that the numberof hogs
in Nebraska decreased from 2,328,947
in 1908 to 1,490,232 in 1910. This fact

According to the last census, which
was made public Wednesday of this
week, the state of Nebraska has a pop
ulation of 1,192,214, an increase of 125
914 over the census of 1900. The pop
ulation of Holt county is given as 15,
545, an increase of 3,321 over the pop
ulation of 1900. The figures will be a
little dissapointing to many people
who believed that the population of
this county is greater today than it
has been, but the figures show that
we are about 1,000 under the figures of
1890. j
Miss Mabel Snyder of this city won

A good sized delegation of O’Neill £
sports went over to Gregrory, S. D., (
last Thursday to witness the ten (
round bout between Jack Sullivan of \
this city and Kid West of Gregory, t
The promoters ofj the scrap rung in j
eight ounce gloves on Jack so he did ,
not put West down for the count, al
though the spectators say that he had
him going in nearly every round, but ]
; that the lightness of the gloves pre- ,
vented him from landing a knock-out
blow. Sullivan was awarded the de- |
cision, having the best of the contest ,
all the way through. About a $1,000 :
house witnessed the contest.
1 R. D. Saunders was in from his
Wheeler county ranch last Tuesday, i
Pete says that everything is prosper- :
I ous in his section of the country and ;
. that there are more cattle being
. wintered in southern Holt and north
’ ern Wheeler this winter than there
i has been in years. This is largely on
i account of the scarcity of feed in
i other sections of the state, many
• ranchmen having sent their cattle
into that section to winter on account i
i of the abunoance of feed. They are
) paying $100 a head for wintering
- cattle this season, whereas the cus
I tomary price in seasons past has been
; 50 cents per month. While in the
i city we made arrangements with Mr.
r Saunders to come to O’Neill and run
. The Frontier this winter while we
, are attending the legislative session
at Lincoln.

THE HOME OF GOOD MERCHANDISE.
A Show of the West.
Realizing the benefits of a mid
winter educational show of western
gricultural products, Nebraskans
will not let tlie national corn show
iea die out, but now propose to re
lace it with an exhibit of all the
arm and orchard products of the
west.
Limited as it is to the exhibits of
tales west of the Missouri river, such
show is aimed to better serve the
urpose of boosting the western
ountry by giving a graphic lesson
nder one roof of the possibilities of
he lands between the river and the
ierra Nevadas.
The idea of the promoters of this
itest of western enterprises is to
ring together such honest represen
atlve exhibits from western states
nd districts as will give a visitor a
lear idea of what is possible on west
rn lands without necessity of travel
og thousands of miles to see irriga
ion projects, new farm lands, dry
arming regions and old and well de
eloped farms in Nebraska, South
Dakota and Kansas.
The Western Land Products ex
llblt will be sort of a panorama of the
ountry west of the Missouri river
with such displays of products as will
'ive anyone an intelligent idea of
>ach section of the country where
arming or fruit growing is the princi
>al industry. Does a farmer or in
vestor want to know Nebraska with
>ut traveling over the state? Look
it the Nebraska exhibit. Inquirers
ibout a certain valley in Idaho of the
products of the great Salt Lake basin,
nay be answered by visiting the ex
hibits brought together for this
honest purpose.
The Western Land products exhibit
will be held in Omaha Jan. 18 to 28,
n the Auditorium, which has 19000
iquare feet of exhibit space.

When you pick up a trade paper you
lo not see ‘‘These splendid goods are
prepared by faulty and unreliable
workman notwithstanding these men
ire ignominious failures,we have kept
them and our product is the test on
the market.” That is just what the
churches have done for society in
chrlstianllands. “Peter’s Denial’’ Is the
subject of International Series of bible
lessons, which will be discussed in
Presbyteriau Sunday school next Sun
day Dec. 4th. At the entrance of
many harbors, there are buoys float
ing as a warning against dangerous
rocks or shallow water. In life you
will not have to look around long or
observe much until you find where the
best channels are. Preceedlng the
bible school is the regular morning
worship with sermon at 10:30
Next Sunday evening we will begin
a short series or talks “The awakening
of China’’. The discussion will deal
with the ultimate effect and compet
ition of Chinese labor in China or Am
erica. In self defense we must take
the gospel to those people. To change
their econ«' nic standards. The polit
ical fconomio advantages of “Mis
sions’’ will be dealt with.
Manv lessons of sucial customs,
agricultural pursuit and general in
tegrity warrant us in assuming that in
a very few generations the Chinese
people will be second Ito very few of
the world powers of today. Come and
study this question with us Sunday
evening Dec. 4th, 7:30 p. m. Bring
some one with you when you come.
