NEBRASKA Land
HAS BIG VALUE
EXPERTS AGREE

come While Market Prices
for Live Stock and Grain
Remain High.

"Buy and own a farm in Nebras-
ka," is the slogan caught up and
echoed and re-echoed from every
end of the country. 1t is conceded
that it is as good advice to the man
with limited means as to the man
who has wealth.
THAT there are many who have
caught the inspiration and have ben
Gifted by the advice to buy Nebras-
ka land goes without saying, for
with wheat selling at $3.50; corn at
$l.50@l.60 bushel and hogs and
cattle at $40 and better per 100
pounds, live weight, it is apparent
that there is nothing better and
more productive of a comfortable
income for all time than owning a
tract of land in the Antelope state, "
said R. ]. Smith, industrial commits
sioner of the Union Pacific, who
with S. B. Howard, immigration
agent for the Burlington, attended a
meeting of railroad and other land
agents, held in Memphis, Tenn. At
this meeting there were present
more than 500 land men, coming
from almost every part of the Unit
ed States. Land values and crop
prospects in the respective agricul-
tural and stock raising sections of
the United States were discussed.
There it was the consensus of opin-
ion that at this time Nebraska offers
alluring opportunities to farmers
and investors.
Prices Here Lowest.
At the Memphis meeting it was
generally agreed that land prices in
Nebraska, taking everything into
consideration, are the lowest of any
place in the country.
AS to Nebraska values, prices of
land in this state are such as to fit
the pocketbooks of the masses. If
a man desires to buy 5000 to $500
an acre land. he can do so by going
out into the Older counties along
the Missouri river valley and in the
eastern part of the state. This land
is in close proximity to the towns
and cites and close to market. 1t
lies in a zone where there has never
been a crop failure and even at the
price asked, is considered an excel
lent investment. In fact, it is land
that is equally as good as that across
the river in Iowa that is held at and
is selling at $500 to $500 an acre.
Should a man be seeking land of
lower value, all he has to do is to
go back from the Missouri river a
distance of 100 miles or so, and
there he will find land as productive
as the Valley of the Nile. Land
through this area sells at $500 to
$3.50 an acre for improved farms.
Unirnproved land, equally as good,
can be bought at around SIS an acre.
This central Nebraska land is in
the mixed farming zone, where corn,
Omaha daily bee., 1919-04-13

wheat, oats, rye, barley and alfalfa
grows. During the last season much
of the land of this character which
was cropped, yielded an income of
$50 to SIS an acre, gross. There are
instances where the crop has paid
for the land.
Just beyond this fertile area and
lying north is the great stock rails
ing area Of the country between the
Missouri river and the mountains.
1t is hundreds of miles long. The
soil is light and sandy, but it is
ideal for stock raising purposes and
thereon each summer are grazed
thousands and thousands of cattle
that fatten and later find their way
to market, prime beef without hav-
ing been fed a bushel of corn or
other grain.
By many this sand hill land, as it
has come to be called, is considered
the best investment that can be
had. In some instances this land can
be bought at $40 to SIS an acre, but
as rule it ranges from $40 to $50.
The sand hill country is pretty well
divided into ranches that vary in
size from $40 to several thousand
acres each. They are practically all
fenced and on most of them are
the necessary buildings for living
and stock raising.
Men who have made a study of
conditions contend that on $40
acres of this land, inside of 10 years
man can become rich.
To the west of the sandhills lies
an immense area of cheap land. fer
tile in the extreme, and when prop
erly cultivated, will raise all kinds
of grain. However, at this time it
is regarded as being the best for
wheat and sugar beets. Last year
within this area wheat averaged
close to Is bushels an acre, while
sugar beets brought in returns of
anywhere from $50 to 500 an acre.
This western land is known as
"hard soil" and there is an immense
acreage that is for sale. 1t ranges
from $40 to SIS an acre, with i'm
proved tracts selling around $50. AS
an investment, it is conceded that
there is nothing better.
