The wet fall retarded harvesting and in
consequence there has been in the western

%lections. but this was not in the nature Of
a ~stringency and people in my business are
looking for splendid sales this year." said
]. D. Clark, an implement salesman, at
the Merchants hotel yesterday.
The convention in Omaha last week was
exceptionally profitable for the jobbers, and
as conventions have proved reliable cri-
terions Of the year to follow, we are bank
ing on an exceptionally good spring. Let
me further remark. that in this present
tendency toward the scientific in farming
the agriculturists Of Nebraska are out
stripped by none. Farmers in my territory
now are buying better machinery than ever
and are using 1t with better Judgment.
Once they were accustomed to leaving an
implement wherever they happened to be
when they unhitched, but now they build
sheds before they buy at all and they keep
their machines in splendid repair.
The dealers at last weeks convention
were up to date. President wilkins Of the
Sioux City Pillow company, an observing man
and well informed, said to me: There is no
use talking, Clark. the dealers Of this sec
ton are way ahead Of those around them
Implement companies are all expecting
to do well during 1903 and my optimism
concerning financial conditions is based
upon what banker have told me out in the
western part Of the state, which is my ter
