Our Farm Increase

Preliminary returns from the farm census indi-
cate a marked increase in the number of farms in the
United States. In 1880 We had $500, 900 farms and the
new count will show about SOC. 900 more.
According to officials the increase over the nation
is attributed to the number of persons who went back
to the country when city jobs vanished.
Sheridan county has practically held its own in
the number of farms according to unofficial figures
released here last week. There are 10 less farms here
than in 1890. During the past six years Sheridan coun-
ty farmers have faced adverse conditions that will In
all probability never again be equaled. Years Of sue
cessive crop failures due to persistent drouth has
practically exhausted every farmers resources,
Before the census figure was announced We would
have wagered a good hat that Sheridan county would
register a greater decrease in the number Of farms
than that which the preliminary count showed.
The census figure is gratifying inasmuch that 1t
shows that Sheridan county farmers are not cutters.
They mey be down, in many instances, but not out.
The Sheridan county farmer still has hope for
Sheridan county. Their staying power against over
whelming odds the past six years has proven that
The tiller of the soil has learned to take it on the
chin. What will be the outcome this year remains to
be seen. The outlook is far from being bright
