work on tho plans now and they will
be announced later. Secretary A.
Gaudorault gave out tho following
statement at tho close of tho meet
ing: "The pure bred Industry has been
hard hit and it will tako a lot of
good co-operation to bring It back to
normalcy. Tho cattlo men at tho
meotjng were optimistic that things
will right themselves and that busi
ness will soon bo on a solid founda
tion again. Never In tho history of
Lincoln bounty was thoro stcli xi
shortage of breeding cattle. It takes
a pretty good dairy cow to make $30
worth of butter fat in a year while a
great many beof calves havo brught
that much at weaning timo. A $30
calf will pay 10 on a $300 cow for
one year but If tho cow is worth
only $100 It will pay 30 on tho
Investment. With tho shortage of
tho grain crop farmers are turning
back to tho old cow as tho means
of earning a llviihood. And tho best
investment Is a puro bred cow. If
a farmer invests $100 to $150 for a
young registered cow and can cash
In her calf for $100, what bank stock
or oil stock or mining stock can
assure you of greater dividends?
One section of sand hill pasture llko
we havo has been carrying llfty cows
and calves all summer and thoy
camo off in October, nice, sleefc and
fat. Thero aro a thousand sections
In Lincoln county which arc now ldlo
and which could easily carry fifty
cows and calves during tho grazing
season. Think what an enormous
loss to tho people of thlH county
when theso sections aro not used. It
becomes the .ranchmen of Lincoln
county to slick to tho comely old
cow and stock up those vast fertile
ranches to thoir capacity. That
will bring prosperity to tho whole
county."
"Never before has thoro been a
better opportunity to buy good breed
ing cattlo cheap, than thero is today
vith breeding cows so cheap and a
range between grass cattlo and fat
cattlo of only ?4. per hundred. In
driving through this county a man
Is impressed with the scarcity of flno
cattle. It is estimated thero is less
than 2 of tho cattlo In Lincoln
county which are pure bred and loss
than 10 which aro bred up so they
would bo called good cattlo. And
, yet Lincoln county has as many

H. L. Cochran has boon appointed
o'-.nlrmun of the Lincoln county com
mittee to rase $240,000 to build nn
athletic stadium at tho University of
N'obrnskn. He is appointing his com
tnlttoo and the work of raising $15,000

'login the coming week. Tho noeds
of the University aro so many and ex
tensive that Ib has not seemed possible
to gut an appropriation largo enough
to build an athletic field big enough
to answor the purpose. It was finally
decided not to ask tho tnxpayor for
any money for this purposo but to
rnt8o tho amount among tho friends
of the University. Tho students were
tackled first and exceeded their quota
by 23 per cent. Tho faculty exceeded
Its quota by almost as much. Now
tho alumni and former students aro
to bo given a clianca to exceed their
quota which is assigned by counties.
