Nebraska Crop Values.

What appears to be a conservative estimate
of the value of four of Nebraska's leading crops
corn, wheat, oats and hay-places the total
at $236,7S1,903, computed on values OF so cents
Fer bushel for merchantable corn, half that
amount for soft corn, 10 cents for wheat, 80
cents for oats, 81 per ton for alfalfa hay and
So and 81 per ton for Wild and tame hay. Prices
being paid out In the state for these staples show
them TO be, II anything, below the average, and
the total crop yield is computed on a basis
which appears to be able to bear the test OF an
alyHis. A crop Of such volume also means that
the percentage consumed on the farm as feed
for stock used in farm operation is less than in
smaller crop years, though, of course, the actual
amount is fairly stable quantity year by year.
and the remainder which win be converted into
cash in the shape OF grain meat products must
be greatly in excess of the normal. In contrast
with the big cotton crop OF the south last year
there is ready market at fair prices for every
dollars worth Of Nebraska's product and what
this means in business way would be difficult
to compute, and its influence is more than local
for the great grain belt OF which Nebraska is a
prominent portion has been the steadying in
fAuence on the commerce OF the nation and the
bright spot in days OF depression. This great
production Of agricultural staples which all the
world must have is the key to the business ac-
tiyity in Omaha and throughout Nebraska.

Trade Outlet for Omaha to the Northwest.

Trade Outlet for Omaha to the Northwest.
The voting Of bonds for a bride across the
Missouri river at Yankton and the building OF a
short connecting railroad north revives the old
hope OF Omaha for entry into that trade ter
ritory a large portion Of which is naturally
tributary 60 this city. The efforts to gain &C
cess to this field have been many, dating back
10 the time when Omaha was little more than
village and the old Omaha Northwestern was
chartered, and they have been continued inter-
mittently since West of the Missouri river
railroad development has opened up the field to
Omaha but all traffic from east Of the river has
been forced to pass through Sioux City to reach
Omaha, and the handicap OF increased distance
and indirect rail communication has virtually
shut Omaha out.
The project now under consideration gives
more promise of fruition than its predecessors.
In the first place, IL involves no great financial
outlay, for roads leading from Omaha already
tap the country across the river from Yankton,
and with lines already built into that city and
north, few miles OF new road will connect up
with network OF lines spreading over the en-
tire territory. A clearer appreciation OF the
value of this opening probably would have
solved the problem long ago, but let us hope
that the present project will not be allowed to
lag.

THE CALL OF THE WEST.

Hunt Copeland in New York Times.
The haze on the far horizon,
The tint of an auburn sky,
The infinite ocean of wheat fields
With the wild geese flying high,
The hum of the busy binder,
The laugh. the song. the Jest,
All of earth's wild freedom
This is the call of the west.
The crisp frost air of the winter,
The sun In tropic sky
The snowshoe tramp by the river,
The curriers' call Tee Hill"
The northern lights in the heavens,
The healthiest land and the best,
The nearest to life that's nowhere
Except in the land of the west.
'Tis a land of hope and promise,
Where a man is known by his worth,
To the Russ. Icelander, or Saxon,
No matter the land of his birth.
To each and to all there's a welcome
In this land of liberty blessed.
Oppression and tyranny elsewhere,
But not In the land of the west.
IT'S land that is free from tradition.
Where a man meets a friend as a man
Where people are up and are doing
They can, for they know they can!
'Tis land that Is fast becoming
The home of the wanderers quest,
Where the patriot sings with devotion:
My country, the land OF the west.
Aad far, far away Ger the ocean,
A sweetheart, a sister, a wife,
Is longing and waiting and wishing
To obtain n renewal of life
In this land where for all there is plenty
That they may enjoy with the rest,
The fulfillment of hope and of promise
This Is the call of the west.

and poisons from the blood, then you
get sick. Nearly all rheumatism. head
aches, liver trouble, nervousness. con-
stipation, dizziness, sleeplessness, blad-

The moment you feel duh ache In the
kidneys or your back hurts, or II the
urine is cloudy, offensive, full Of sedi-
ment, irregular OF passage or attended
by a sensation of scalding, get about
four ounces OF Jad Salts from any re-
liable pharmacy and take a tablespoon
full in a glass OF water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid Of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with ithia, and has been used
for generations TO flush clogged Kidneys
and stimulate them to activity, also to
neutralize the acids in urine so 1t no
