year will yield an average OF not less

enormous yield there will be scarcely q

hat was a mistake. Possibly the toSaI
what, hut the eastern section OF the stats
was uninjured by the drought.
Near my town one farmer raised a
wheat crop which averaged 40 bushels
to the acre Of No. l wheat. He sold a
little too soo and only real zed rs cents
per bushel. but at that figure you will
see that his land returned $50 per acre,
OF this amount no. more than $40 per
acre was spent for seed and other ex.
penses, leaving a net profit o. $40"

"A factory using the product OF about
1000 acres OF sorghum cane has been
put in operation in Beatrice this fall
There will be a very large increase in
the wheat acreage this year, probably

increased 20 per cent and there is a large
inquiry from eastern farmers and many
