WINTER WHEAT IN NEBRASKA.

has the force OF character necessary to
accomplish that which brings about
the desired results, remarked Arthur
B. Smith, who recently resigned as
assistant general passenger agent of
the Burlington route. "a man who
causes two blades of grass to grow
where one grew before is the best
kind of benefactor. This fact is fore
IDLY impressed upon me in studying
the estimates of the 1901 crops Of Ne
braska. The saving clause is: Winter
wheat, $4,000, 900 bushels. And it
was only ten years ago that practically
no winter wheat was grown in Ne
braska and not much of any variety.
We were then corn community
absolutely.
eff the citizens of Nebraska could
realize how much they owe to the
foresight and force of character of
one man, they would honor him even
more than they do. This man is DIR.
George L. Miller, who for years has
been going about doing good to his
fellow men. In the spring of 1890 l
was called into the office of General
Manager Holdrege, and there met DR..
Miller, who submitted this PROPOSE
ton: First, winter wheat is success
fully grown east of us, beginning with
New York and extending westward
between the same parallels; second,
the soil of Nebraska (Which he had
carefully analyzed) has the qualities
necessary for raising it; third, the
climate here is adapted to it's pro-
duction. His reasoning was by anal
ogy, and it has since been abundant
ly proved At that time the need of
diversified crops in Nebraska was
great, but Notwithstanding this need
the plan of growing wheat proposed
by DR.. Miller was regarded by every
one as altogether impracticable. After
full discussion, Mr.. Holdrege, al
ways optimistic and ready to try any
thing which will benefit Nebraska, de-
cided to thoroughly investigate it. On
trip through the state made shortly
after, asked a great many farmers
what they thought about it. All
shook their heads and said: I'm
possible Winter wheat can't be
raised in Nebraska. The climate is
wrong there is not snow enough and
the soil is not adapted to it.
Demonstration Success.
1t was discouraging report
brought back, but DR.. Miller's faith
was unshaken. With the earnest CO.
operation of Mr.. Holdrege, several ex-
perimental farms. were established and
winter wheat was planted, but with

of political revolutions; and utterances
of this character, so numerous that no
book could contain them all, together
with dishonest and dishonorable teach
ings, have left their deep, dark, deadly
marks and baneful influence Oh thous-
ands of previously honest, honorable
and peaceful citizens. No one can esti-
mate the moral and financial injury
done by these political mountebanks to
thousands of their deluded and mis-
guided followers.
Men who otherwise would have done
their duty and remained in the State Of
Nebraska, during the drouth and panic,
keeping their small holdings in cattle
and chattels, were driven to despair by
these ranting hypocrites, and to sell
their cattle for little or nothing, and
worse still, made to believe they were
on the verge of "moral, political and
financial ruin" Hundreds of these
men under the sinister spell of these
mercenary demagogues and political
poltroons, were discouraged and melted
to leave good homes and seek homes
abroad, only to return later on at
great sacrifice, to retrieve their losses
caused by these anarchistic teachings.
Those who remained in Nebraska, keep
ing their homes and small holdings in
cattle, are in good financial condition
today. Many others of those driven
from their homes by these political
assassins Of their honor and credit, have
since returned and rebuilt and redeemed
from debt their homes. Others were
never able to get back, having spent
their all, and have only those to blame
who counselled them to despair. No
one who lived through that period
Of gloom and despair, wrought into ex-
istence by these windy ranters, can
deny one word of these statements
Men who teach reputation, who teach
others to violate their sacred obliga-
tions, who teach it is right for the
debtor to cheat, beat and defraud the
creditor who teach the borrower to
hate the banker, the laborer to hate the
employer, who teach government by
''injunction," who teaches that he is
the only political Christ and there is no
other, who teaches anarchists to vote
for this savior, who teaches that the
Supreme Court are paid hirelings of the
money power, who teaches Altgeld and
Tillman, who teaches money is half
fiction, who teaches there will be no
more Fourth of Julys, no more songs of
"My Country 'Tis of Thee" who
teaches the few are getting rich and are
getting fewer, that the poor are getting
poorer and the rich are getting richer,
who teaches all kinds of false proph-
ecies, paradoxes, paraphrases parallels
