Two distinct features on the bill coming to the
Keith Theatre on Thursday. Next.
A program of.cfean consistant amusement with two distinct, leature acts will begn at the Keith Theatre on Thursday next.
Sergeant Lawrence and Company will offer a spectacular military-musical novelty that is intensely interesting. The second number
will be The Wilson's in their athletic oddity, in which they proffer a line of individual and double work entirely out of the ordinary.
Ralph Madison, the singing Miner, delivers a novelty in connection with his powerful baritone voice. Perry and Bell supply a lib
era! amount of hearty laughter with theii Swedish-American cross-fire and Starr and Under harmonize nicely under the caption of
"Down Melody Lane", This all comprises a slight digression from nrp.vinns nfforinirc nnrl vrv

llf talking about the Farm Bureau
movomont with a fanner tho other
day ho said lio wns afraid It was
hooked up with big business and
could not do much for tho farmer.
We got to thinking about that Btato
mont, and then wo began asking aomo
of iour cnthusalstle Farm Bureau
men what tho Farm liuroau lias ac
complished y Tar. Ono told of tho ef
fort now being mado to establish a
marketing system direct without tho
stock oxchnngo. Thou wo wondord
how any Institution that wan backed
' ,b!tr businosa could make a raid
against tho Stock Exchungo which in
big business. .Another told us of tiro J
successful efforts put forth In somo1
statoa to regulate tho railroads and
packing hoiisoa niul again wo wond-1
orcd why an Institution that wns
backed up by big business would daro
mo in wnere angola fear to troad.
Another told of tho offorta of tho
Farm Uuorau Federation to establish
tho Land Hank and oncn morn wn
wondered how tho Farm Bureau
could bo coupled with big business
and yet bo back of tho Land Bank
which wns opposed by big 'business.
Wo havo about como to tho conclus
ion that tho big business lntorestb of
thla country aro not hooked up with
tho American Farm Bureau but that
they aro powerless In Its presence
nnd afraid of its future. This is our
Individual onlnlon and wn tnkn Mm
entire responsibility for it.

GENTLEMEN: -
North Platte, Nob., March 29', 1921."
At he yearly meeting of Lincoln County Fair Association I was
re-appointed as Chairman of Agriculture Exhibits, both for the State
Fair and the County Fair, which will be held on bur fair grounds at
North Platte, September 20-21-22-23 this year.
It is our ambition to have a big display this year and with this view
in mind we are offering $1,000.00 as a special prize for collective pre
cinqt exhibits with a First Prize of $300.00; Second $225.00; Third $150
Fourth $100.00; Fifth $75.00; Sixth $65.00; Seventh $50 Eighth $35.
We Feel That
the interest of our County is to bring out the real agricultural displays
and we want you to talk this over with some of your neighbors and fix
a real display and at the same time get in on some of these prizes. We
are offering $5,000.00 on stock and agricultural exhibits this year. We
feel with the prizes offered it will be worth while to make an extra ef
fort, as you will not only advertise farms, but at the same time receive a
compensation for your time and work.
We are placing a large quantity of seeds in the hands of the Chair
man of each precinct that makes an effort in this contest.
We line up with you as soon as you will make acceptance to this
appointment. Please write by return mail as we desire to call a meeting

ant and we would be pleased to have your co-operation and good judg
ment in this matter.
