BE VERY CHEAP THIS FALL

Advices to TIE railroads indicate that
the farmers OF the potato belt OF Ne
braska will not become rich this fall
from their potato crop, which is estimated
TO he yielding from 100 to 200 bushels per
acre.
Word comes from Chadron and the
country to the north and south. right IN
the heart OF the Nebraska potato growing
district, that buyers from Omaha, Denver,
Kansas City and half q dozen other big
markets are in the fields and that the best
prices they are offering range from 30 to
35 cents per bushel, T. o. b.
With Nebraska potatoes selling at 90
cents at the shipping station. 1t is figured
that tho Omaha consumer may have them
delivered into his cehsr at around 50 TO
