CROP EXPERTS OPTIMISTIC
Some Believe Corn Yield Will Exceed
That of Last Year.
UT SAYS 1sO,OOO,OOO BUSHELS
Conrad Il. spens Is More Hopeful,
Venturing the Guess that 100000
900 Bushels VIII he Total
1911 Nebraska Crop.

"Iow much corn will be harvested in
Nebraska this fall?" Is the burning ques-
ton in business offices, railroad headquar-
tiers and even on the street corners
II believe there will be between 900
and 100, 100000 bushels harvested" declares
]. e. UT, general agent for the Rock
Island lines in Omaha. with normal
weather from now on the crop will be
close to lit. 100000 bushels. but with good
rains, better than We usually have here, 1t
will easily raise to 100000 bushels"
Mr.. UT has made predictions on the
amount OF corn harvested each year in the
first week In August and he is considered
one Of the best informed men on corn crops
in the state.
Conrad e. Spens. general freight agent
of the lines west or the Missouri OF the
Burlington, is more optimistic than Mr.. UT
and declares that the crop will total 300
10000 bushels 1t is a matter OF private
record that Mr.. Spens' guess in 1910 was
within 100000 bushels of being correct
Other men In Omaha insist that the crop
will with normal weather come Lp to 90.
10000 bushels, while those who do not be-
lieve in the strength OF Nebraska to grow
corn in the late summer and early fall and
make a crop state that the crop will be
a60.00 900 bushels.
But with all the guesses II is a significant
fact that no one considers that Nebraska s
share OF the golden ears will be small this
season. The division of opinion induces
the one on the side line TO believe that II
will come up to nearly that OF last year
900 bushels
That the rains of the last few weeks will
more than counterfeit the effect of the
early summer drouth so far as the crop
situation is concerned. is the opinion OF
S. e. Hoover OF Highmore. s. d. Mr..
Hoover, who is stopping at the Merchants
hotel while in the city on business, is
optimistic as to crop prospects
I'VE win have good crops in our part OF
South Dakota" said he on Friday
'"Things were awfuly dry and We were
worried about It, but during the last two
weeks we have had rains that have helped
things out. These haven't been big ones
but We have had several rainfalls of from
. third TO a half inch.
THE corn looks good as ever" con
tinued Mr.. Hoover "and l believe thC
average crop will be harvested. The
sunny weather has given it a chance tC
grow with more than ordinary speed, and
II We have an average rainfall from nov
on It should be well developed and ont O
danger from frost much earlier thar
usual"

The Bird of Happiness

Music lovers who claim that the
modern song writer's cannot write rs
good songs as were written forty or
fifty years ago will find refutation
OF their assertion in the new song,
The Blue Bird, by Hal Mordaunt
and Samuel ii. Speck, and they will
no doubt welcome this new addition
to the catalog of Jerome H. Remicl.
& Co.
The song was written for the
great production of Maeterlink
dramatic masterpiece, The Blue
Bird" produced at the million do
lar New Theatre in New York re-
Gently.
The idea that the Blue Bird is the
bird of happiness according to Mae
teriink is impressively told both in
the lyrics and the melody-in fact.
the great English stage manager
Mr.. Winthrop Ames, gave permis.
sion to use his name in connectioa
with the song, and in letter to W
Mordaunt expressed the opinion tha
to hear the song rendered as he had
heard it was next TO seeing the COM
plete drama itself.
1t has received many fattering
comments from critics all over the
country. and today the most popu-
lar high class ballad to be had at the
music stores is The Blue Bird.
Madame Colletti, the we'll known
singer. concludes every concert with
The Blue Bird, and claims that she
can send her audiences home in a
happy state of mind with the words
of this song ringing in their ears,
especially the lines Of the refrain at
the end of the second stanza:
Of all little birds in the garden of love
That hither and thither fly,
The little blue bird is the bird for you,
With happiness born in the sky,
With happiness born in the sky.
AS usually treated. "a spraned ankle
disables a man for three or four
weeks, but by applying Chamber
lains's Liniment freely as soon as the
injury is received, and observing the
directions with each bottle, a cure
can be effected in from two to four
days. For sale by H. j. Pier.
