We find that after people have decided to open an ac count with us and make it a gunge of their progress in getting ahead in the world, and have made a few deposits they soon acquire the ‘repeating’ habit. They gnd it much easier to accumulate than they though. Why not start an ac count with us?

State Editorial Meet The annual meeting of the State Editorial Association at Omaha Monday, Tuesc&y and Wednesday of last week was by far the best held by the association in the history of the past. Omaha just spread her self and as they had claimed would be there was scarcely breathing spell between “doings”. In fact, the big reception committee would scarcely give the association time to hold its meetings, but wanted even those necessary hours to show the scribes and their more popular side pards the the good things in store for them. The entertainment for the visitors began proper with luncheon at noon at the Rome, followed that evening by an entertainment and lunch at the den for the boys and a reception for the girls at the home of Mrs. New urancn, wue oi tne editor of the World-Herald. Tuesday noon was seeing the packing houses, followed by heap big' eats at the stookvards and an auto ride over the tornado district and boulevards of the city and banquet and dance in the evening at the Field Club. Wednesday noon was a dinner for the ladies at the Commercial Club by the Equal Suf fragists and dinner in the Olive room at the Rome for the editors, while Wednesday evening was given over to a line program of entertainment at the Commercial Club, seventeenth floor of the W. O. W., and accompany eats. As for the editorial program for each day, as no one but the editors themselves are particularly interested in those events, we pass them over. There were so many of the big men and women in Omaha who were on the reception committee that we could no more than generalize them, composed as they were of the cream of the newspaper fraternity and type and paper houses, besides those emi nent in other lines of business, but in South Omaha the main force was our own -1Doc' Tanner, the newspaper man, whom all the boys swear by, who turned his office to over the "devil and w orked night and day for weeks to make our visit to the pack ing house industries one of the big gest card in the pack, in which he was backed by the mayor, the presi dent of the packing house industries and all leading men. At the close of the dinner, “Doc” was toastmaster. showing that South Omaha was the third largest in the packing in dustries in the world and in some re spects ranked second. He gave fig ures showing business running into millions annually. We cannot at this time publish the most surprising sta tistics given, but hope to du so later. As a poet, also, “Bix” must rise early to take "Doc’s” measure as shown at that and other times. However, we will not take up further space at this time in telling our readers of the great time given the fraternity by both Omahas, but can swear every editor returned home singiDg the praises of “Omaha, My Omaha.” Along Route 2 Lars P.

Rye tilling well; oats look grand; potatoes prom ise one of the best crops in years; hay is also the best in several years. Alfalfa is over half in the stack and the crop is the best ever raised in Sherman county. Rye will be ready to cut on or before the first of J uly. Millet and cane promise a big yield now. Pastures are also the best in years and are still improving. The stand of corn is good and most fields are clean. Some fields of corn culti vated over oDce. Tame cherries are commencing to ripen. Lots of Prairie being broken this year. It looks good to see tha farmers breaking out the small draws that are in their fields. Some of these places have been farmed around for years, but the farmers realize now that these places are the richest on their farms and that it takes time to farm around them, and time is money in this day and age. It increases the Drice of the farm when you come to sell. There are some fifteen patrons on the route that have improved their farms by doing this this spring.
