The man or woman who wears a
diamond also wears an air of pros
perity that is far reaching in its in
fluence. These are commercial times, and to
BE successful you must LOOK it.
People are always judged, at first by
their appearance.
As an investment the diamond is in a
class by itself, because, outside of its
intrinsic value, it has the added value
as an adornment.
When you are ready to buy a dia
mond, at whatever price, there are
plenty of reasons why you should
come here.

Horse Industry
The value of a Stallion registration
law can readily be realized when we
analyze the industry within the stato
Nebraska with ono-twclve-hundreth of
tlio world's population has one twent
ieth of all the horses within the United
States and one-one-huudredth of all
the horses in the world. Only llvo
states in the Union exceed Nebraska
asdot number.
In 1912 registration shows only 49
percent of the breeding stallions of Ne
braska were puro bred. In 1914 the
pure breds had increased to 53.7 por
cent. During the bame period of timo
the sound animals increased from G8
porcont in 1912 to SO pcrceut In 1914.
Among the puro bred stallions, Per
cheron'N lead with 55.5 percent of the
total numbor, HelL'iaus'are second with
11.1 percent. In the near future we
hope to sco Nebraska with its splendid
climate and natural resources occupy
the pinaclo of success lu tlio horse
breeding industry.
