WHY SOT HAVE A PICKLE JFAO
TOJEY IX VALENTINE
Pickle factories have been a success
in other places why could not one be
made so here If farmers can afford
to raise pickles on land worth from
40toJ100 per acre in the east cap-
not farmers compete with them here
on land- worth 10 per acre If the
citizens of Valentine havoi a desire
to see the town grow and made
prosperous it must endevar to build up
or encouragae the building up of
some kind of industries that will
help out the farmers who so
largely support the town Who will
take hold of this question at once and
if necessary call a meeting to assertain
what a plant would cost and whether
there is real enterprise enough to push
the project to completion which would
without doubt be to success Now is
the time to do it if anvthinsr is to -be
i vH
done as it requires time to perfect an
organization and transack the business
preparatory to starting the enterprise
Valentine is fast gaining a reputation
as a fine young city characterized for
its cleanliness healthliness fine cli
mate pure water diversified scenery
and all the necessary pre requisites
for a thriving town Will our business
men look at this in its true light and
jput forth at least enough energy to
properly investigate this matter The
columns of the Independent are
always open for anyone who has any
project that would be of interest or
benefit to Valentine and Cherry coun

THE DESIOHEST SILVElt MBBAi
CONTEST
Last Saturday evenings entertain
ment at the M E Church brought out
a full house Mrs S Moon who 7has
charge of the contests this being the
tenth one seems tpbe the right person
for the position the work of the
Legion is one in which she is especial
ly interested The folio wing young
ladies contested for the silver medal
Alma Carlson Subject The Martyr
ed Mother Lottie Hubbard Sub
ject A voice from the Poor House
Ina Flowers Subject Young Amer
icas War cry Daisy Stilwell Sub
jet The cry of To day Isis Lincoln
Subject Prohibition the hope of
our Country Abby Razey Subject
Moral suasion or Prohibition
The Independent will not particu
larize on the various contestants as
this duty was assigned to the follow
iug gentlemen judges who decided the
case upon its merrits Dr Waterson
T C Hornby and Dr C A Wells
We would only say that it was regarded
as a very even contest and had some
of the participants more thorougly
memorized their selections and taken
more time in delivering the result
might have been different Rapid
delivery is not essential and should be
avoided until other and more import
ant points are mastered Expres
sion should be the first great point
sought after by the young speaker
then speed and other features may
be acquired We shall expect to see
an improvement in this one point at
least at the next contest Rev O L
Ramsey favored the meeting with a
solo I am- that wondering boy
Mrs W L Cassady of Chadron was
present and took part in the enterta in
ment Mrs Kamey in a few well
chosen remarks presented the silver
medal to Miss Abby Razey Miss
Daisy Stilwell was marked second
