Wheat Culture.

The New York Economist says:
"During the period embraced between
the wears 1865 and 1872, Ohio, Indians,
Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and Mis-
souri,, although growing immensely IN
population aud Ia general productive
ness. fell off in their relativ yield ol
wheat; while Minnesota il !, ased lis
pro, ,luction from 1900, 900 70 1906, 900
bushels: Iowa from 13, 200, 600 t5 20,6o0,-
O0o: Kansas from 10000 to 2,00O,0O0;
and Nebraska from ls6, 600 to ., 500, 600. F"
The wheat yield -of. Nebraska then
has increased faster than that in any
other State. Nor is it surpassed in the
Weld per acre more than Il trifie over
one bushel {1.2) by any of our thirty
seven States. The frontiersman's first
crop finds home market at high prices
among the white-topped wagons, each
holding a family, which are always
pressing to the front in order to get
the first pick of homesteads. South OF
the Platte, wheat need not be carried
far for Touring, for the mill privileges
not only on the three Blues but on
many of their tributaries make mills
follow close on the heels of pioneers.
wheat also forms the bulk Of freight
exported from Nebraska, whether by
rail or steamer. But the favorite crop
of most farmers in Southern Nebraska
is
INDIAN CORN.
This truly golden grain is the first crop
on new breaking. 1t is sometimes
sent with profit to California, oftener
TO Salt Lake and Colorado. But it
goes east in larger quantities, though
almost always slowed in bags of hog
skin and cowhide which have been dis
covered to hold ten times more than
any canvas bags ever woven. High
freights also are thus deXtrously dodg-
ed. Before the close of May 400 cars
of cattle had gone east from Nebraska
City, this season.
The first corn raised on the Big Blue
at Beatrice in 1858 was sold at Ft.
Kearney at five dollars in gold a bush
ell. Such fabulous prices soon vanished,
but farmers still abound who, buying
land Of the Burlington and Missouri
River Railroad, have found it paying
for itself and their Improvements on it
by the crops of few years. A. II.
Vance, of Camden, Nebraska, writes to
the State Journal that SO acres which he
has titled only two years have already
paid for eighty acres which he had
bought at ten dollars an acre. Edward
Jones, of Pleasant Hill, on harvesting
his first crop, estimated that it alone
would fully pay for his land. if fed out
to stock. But he failed to obtain hog
skin and cowhide bags enough to hold
his corn. However, he was not disap-
pointed. Few men can be as lucky as
Ed. Jones, but it must be good thing
to live near man SO lucky. His luck
may be catching.

lian, who lived near the depot bearing his
name, on the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad,
in Louisa county, died several months ago
suddenly, but managed prior TO his death to
let his family know that he had Il lot of mo.
ncr buried, though he was too far gone to
designate the spot. After his death Mr.. Ro-
bert N. Kent qualified rs administrator OF
his estate, and Il search was commenced for
the hidden treasure, which. when about
being abandoned, was rewarded Il few days
since with success by the discovery in IN old
unused tobacco-housc of $4,000 in gold and
silver coin. From some nearly-dc>troved
papers buried with the coin it was a>cer-
tanned that it was buried iii 1868, about the
time the Federal raiders commenced making
their incursionS into Louisa county.
1t will be remembered that quite Il severe
cavalry engagement took place between the
Federal and Confederate forces near TleviI.
lian's depot in 1864.
The treasure SO opportuncly brought to
light was brought to this city Saturday by
the administrator of Treyilan's estate and

apprcciative audience, who were present TO

tendance entered rs much into the spirit OF
the superb entertainment as did the uu-
equa!lcl organist himself. When Mr.. Wheat
concluded hi, second piece the congregation
could scarcely contain themselves, and not
wihslandng the fact that the concert was
given in the church, there was decided aud
Justly -merited applause given him. The
