Boom in Farm Lands
in Nebraska Expected

Real estate men are looking for lively
market for farm lands the coming fall
and winter. Crops have perhaps never
been better in Nebraska, which, It is as
serted, means that the values of farm
lands will advance. For fifteen years
farm lands have steadily advanced In Me-
braslSa from sos an acre for the best OF
the land 10 a price today OF $l75 and even
$500 Good crops every year have made
this steady advance possible. Good crops
have been grown so many years In sue
cession that the agricultural world recog-
nlzes that Nebraska il a great and de-
pendable farming state, and that the fail
ure is rare occurrence.
This year the small grain is already
largely In the granaries, and the corn
crop is in as good shape as 1t has ever
been at this time OF the year. Timely
rains have put the corn crop, In practl-
cally the whole OF the corn belt OF the
state, out OF danger.
''rhe corn crop is made" Is the univer-
sal expression OF the farmers. and with
that made. the fullest, Toundest crop for
many years Is assured TO Nebraska.
This means that confidence in the state,
growing out OF forty years of crops. In
this year some ten degrees higher than
ever before with the harvesting of, per-
haps the best all-around crop the state
has known. It II this fact that is 20

farmers more loath TO sell, and the
would-be farmers more anxious to buy.
