Conditions in Nebraska We're Never
Better Than They Are at the
Present Time.
ALL TOO BUSY TO TALK WAR

ny Officials Of the Mis-
souri, Pacific.

Assistant General Freight Agent Mall
comb OF the Missouri Pacific railroad Is
back from a three-day trip over the COM
pany lines In southeast Nebraska. He
accompanied Superintendent Russ OF the
Nebraska division, travelling on the lat
ter's gasoline speeder. During the trip
100 miles OF road was covered and twenty
nine stations visited. At many times and
over considerable stretches the speeded
attained a speed of fifty miles per hour.
Speaking OF conditions in the territory
visited. Mr.. Maicomb said;
I'm southeast Nebraska I have never
seen conditions as good as now and
never have I seen such general prosperity
as IL apparent everywhere. The farmers
and business men are all optimists; there
Is no war talk and everywhere the people
are busy. The farmers have raised the
best all around crop in the history OF the
state and everything that they have TO
cell is bringing good prices. From oh
servations made 1 am inclined to the
opinion that about 30 per cent of the
wheat is still In the hands of the farmers
and I presume considerable OF this will
be held in anticipation Of higher prices.
Corn About All Picked.
The corn. is. about all picked. 1Attle
of it has been marketed when you COM
pare the amount on hand with the
amount grown. The corn is of an excel
lent quality and having been picked dur
ing dry weather Is in about the same con-
dition as old corn. A good many OF the
farmers are laying their plans for feed
ing large numbers of steers during the
winter and consequently they viii feed
more hogs than usual.
Tn the towns visited noted that
trade is good and that the quality OF
merchandise purchased is fully up to, II
not better than that OF former years. At
no place that stopped aid the merchants
complain OF hard times or dull business.
MY judgment is that this year. at least,
southeast Nebraska is the most pros
pered locality In the United States and
the garden spot OF the entire country.
The Missouri Pacific is doing a good
business ard at every station on the lines
in the territory visited, the business for
November was largely in excess of the
business Of the corresponding month of
last year. Some stations showed an in
crease OF from rs to 100 per cent in both
freight and passenger traffic.
Much work is being done along the
lines, in the way OF reconstruction and
betterments. Between West Side and
Portal for distance of fifteen miles,
new and heavier rails are being laid and
on the Lincoln and several OF the Me-
braska branches the tracks are being
ballasted with gravel. putting the road
