FARMERS HEADED FOR WEST
Nebraska Land Attractive to People
in Illinois and Iowa.
THEY SEEK GREATER PROFITS
Have Come 10 Realize that by Dis
posing of Holdings and Invest
ing I'm Cheaper Lands RE-
turns VIII BE Larger.

In Iowa and Illinois D. Glenn Beaver
finds that many Of the people are talking
Of the Omaha Land Show held here last
month. A goodly number OF the farmers
OF both states attended the show and the
display Of farm products was a marvel
to them. They were particularly inter
ested in the displays made by the Me-
braska counties and already many of them
are figuring on coming to this state this
winter with view to purchasing land.
According to Mr.. Beaver, land through
central Iowa Is being priced at from S13
to $500 per acre, while over in the Illinois
corn belt It is held at from $500 to $500 per
acre. Land owners there take the posi-
ton that &c they can sell their lands
there, or even hold them as investments,
they can come to Nebraska and buy
equally good land just as close to market
and at around 500 per acre, In doing
this, they estimate that they, will make
money, as they feel that within few
years history will repeat itself and good
Nebraska land WIN reach the prices now
asked for land in Illinois, while the farms
In the last namedNstate cannot go much
higher for many years to come.
Mr.. Beaver also finds that many tenant,
farmers from Illinois and eastern Iowa
are preparing to move to Nebraska and
the states to the west this winter and
next spring. Where they are now To-
Gated. they are paying from s. to Sc per
acre annual rental, while on choice and
better improved farms. some Of them are
paying as high as $40. They are unable
to make any money and in many in
stances tenants have been compelled 10
mortgage their holdings in order to pay
their rent. .sarH h...r, -s "a
