IDEAL CONDITIONS.
Nebraska Highly Favored ia Her f.I
wheat sowing.

LINCOLN, Seb., Oct Si--The mos,
encouraging reports come from all
sections of Nebraska regarding the
winter wheat acreage. and the eondi-
tion of the growing crop. The
amount sown ia some localities
is - per cent greater than
last year. and will average
Is per cent greater for the state at
large. The ground is in excellent con
dition. During the month the rainfall
has been all that could be desired. The
rains were of the steady kind that soak
into the ground. The precipitation
for three weeks amounted to between
four and five inches. Ideal conditions
prevail everywhere, and in western
Nebraska the seeding is not yet i'm
ished. Considerable acreage will yet
be sown- Farmers are jubiIant over
the condition of the growing grain and
the prospects for next years crop.
