The difference In the value OF the Ne

spect being on an equal footing. The rea-
son Is that Iowa barley raisers use a seed
Of quality best suited to the demands Of
the barley market. The amount Of energy
expended in raising the highest grade is not
perceptibly greater than what the inferior
crops OF Nebraska and Kansas require,
but the Iowa farmers produce what a grow
ing market demands and by increased yield
and best quality get double the returns of
their neighbors on the west side OF the
