Noraaha county In early territorial day a
was called Forney coauty , and the boundary
lines were also different from tlio present
cno.i. At thb first regular session of the
territorial legislature , however , the present
name wai adopted , and at a subsequent Bos
nian in the winter of 1S57-S , the present
boundary linen were defined , embracing an
oroa of nbout 400 square miles , or U50.000 .
acres. It Hot in the southeastern part of the
state , bounded north by Otoo county , south
by KlchariUon and Pawnee , wast by John
son , and east by the Missouri river. The
Nonmhn U the principal Interior stream , run
ning diagonally through the central portion
ol tbo county from northwest to southeast ,
cnipttng Into tbo Missouri at Nebraska City.
Tbo Little Nomotm has numerous tributaries ,
converging from different portions of the
county. Muddy croak , Long branch and
other tributaries of the Great Nomaha water
the southern and southwestern onrtlons of
the county , whlio the Missouri river washes
the ontlro eastern boundary , having not a
ilnglo township , and scarcely a quarter-sec
tion , without running water. The various
streams ara fringed with groves , and the
Missouri river bottoms are ho.wilv timbered ,
furnishing an abundance of timber for all
purposes. The many streams with their
holders of natural timber IntoDccling the
undulating prairie lands which form the
built of the nroa embraced in the county , to
gether with thousands of artificial
proves and apple orchards , form a land
scape , which for beauty as well as use
cannot bn excelled in nny county. Tbo soil
is the usual black loam common to the south
eastern portion of the state , varying in
depth from two to six foot. Drouth was
never known to nffoct crop * to any great extent -
tent in Nohoma counly , and excepting on the
Hat river bottoms oxcosswo raliu do not in
terfere with farm operations. Tbo soil and
subsoil is spouiallv noted for drinking in ex
cessive tnolsturo and again giving it up In
periods of meager rainfall. About 15 per
cent of the land Is valley , about 5 par cent
bluff , and the balance generally rolling
prairie , much of it practically level , yet not
flat , with perfect drainage And a surface
tdaptod to the use of nil the latest improved
farm machinery.
a on Fruit.
Tbo ontlro counly is so well adapted to
fruit growing that every farm has its orch
ard and vineyard and the fruit crop is looked
upon as a source of protlt second only to
corn. In a former article tlio ndjolnlnc
county of Otoo was crodlted with being the
banner fruit county of the state , with a crop
lost year of 000,000 Dushels , estimated , whUo
the official figures obtained from the state
board of acriculturo gives Ncmaha 787,543
bushels shipped out in 1S01. This docs not
Include home consumption or wapon de
liveries. The small par cent of rough laud
embraced within tbo lines of the county
has proved to bo natural fruit lands , and
lorao of the finest and most prolific orchards
In the United States today arc growing on the
rocky bluffs In Nomaha county , land which
In early days was considered wortbless.
The cllmato , soil , lay of the land , water and
timber have made Nomaha county a natural
garden for the production of cereals , fruiu ,
vecctablcs and berries , and n feeding ground
for live stock which cannot bo excelled. The
CD tire surface of the county is now a suoces-
Hlon of highly cultured farms and happy
country homos , surrounded by all that na
ture could possibly lavish on the industrious
nusbbtidinnn. The farmer Is king In Neraaha.
He owns the bank stock1 and the bank de
posits as well as tbo land , tbo caltlo nnd the

Jacob Good , now president of tbo Citizens
State bank at IVru , and also of tbo Farmers
and Mo roll mils bunk at Brook , came to
Nomaha county In IBM , n poor boy , iu com
pany with his father , who lirod and died a
poor man , Ho boyan by filing on a quarter
section before ho was of age and at his
majority procured ivland warrant by deeding
half bis claim to tbo owner of the warrant.
That left him eighty acres. Said he : "I
followed farming up to tbroo yoirs ago and
Increased my holdings of land to 1,300 aoreu
of as good laud as there Is in any counter. I
disposed of it t prices ranging from $25 to
$38.50 per aero and went into the banking

not bosafo to tell for publication K it were
not that Governor Mujori sits hero to cor
roborate it. I had a run tor on my farm tbo

been hero onlv six years. Mr. Coddlnpton
freely related his experience and * ave his
views as to the rolntlvo merits ot Nebraska
nnd Illinois ns farming countries. Said ho ,
"I come hero from Illinois , twonly miles
north of Springfield , where 1 was born and
raised. Tbo farm 1 loft rents for $0 nn nnrc.
cash rent , and I do not consider it wortb halt
ns much as this. I could not bo tnducod tope

sidered n good country , but this la very much
bolter. I would rnthor so ZOO miles fartner
west thnn po back to Illinois. Lust year I
bought an olphtv of land hero at S.SO per
aero , and raised corn enough on It to almost
pay for It. I got n good price for the corn
s' ) cents per bushel. I think a farmer could
altord to lese every third nrop hero If neces
sary nnd still innko money. I raised 175
acres of corn last year that avcrascd fortv-
llvo bushels -per aero. Oata made forty bush-
ois. I hail thirty-five acres of winter wheat.
Ono pleco made thlrty-Ilvo bushels nor .iero *
and another twonty-ilvo. It was the heaviest
wheat I ever woraod In. I like to raise
wheat , although I was ndvlsod not to try It
when I en mo hero. In splto of the advice , I
selected nbout ton acres of the poorest corn
on the pluce nnd sowed the wheat among tbo
stalks and out ns good a crop the next yearns
I have over soon. I paid $35 an ncro for all
tny laud except ono eighty , nnd would not
soil It for $ T)0 an ncro. It Is not for sale. I
food but llttlo stock , a few hogs , and soil

.Tumoi K. Ely.
James F. Ely has a splendid farm of 480
acres four nnd one-halt miles northeast of
Auburn. In speaking of his farming ox per 1-
once , ho said : "I oimo to Nomaha county In
1803 with money enough to buv a half-section
of raw land at $7 per acre. I built a hut llx
20 , got a team and wont to work to break up
the Und and Improve the farm. I still own
it end live on It nnd have added another
quarter-section to it. It Is nicely improved ,
good buildings , eight acres of orchard and
nearly alt fenced with hedge , which I con
sider the best kind of fence for Nebraska.
The flt-.it your I was on the place I laliod a
crop of std corn which I sold nt 15 cents a
bushel and ( cleared an oven $100. Tbo next
week after I got the rnonoy In ra.v Docket ono
of my horses broke his log and it Just took
tbo $100 to buy anothor.
"I never sell grain slnco the first year or
two , carrying from 100 to 150 head of cattlo.
Fed sixty head this yoar. 1 am breeding
trotting horses. I paid $1,500 for a 5-month-
old colt last Juno. I have 140 acres in tame
Kras.s and alternate It with plow land. Im
provements on the place cost about $5,000. I
would not take loss than 250 an aero for the
place. I ship stock to Oinuha and consider
U a bettor market than Chicago. "
Mr. Kly has crown wealthy on his farm
and bus made It all except the first invest-
ment strictly by farming. He is Interested
in ono of the Auoura banks and bas plenty
of loose means.
Lost III * Money.
Andrew Higcclns is a representative farmer
of Glenrock precinct , and owner of six quar
ter sections of land and a potato patch of
eighty acres ooildos. In talking It ever bo
remarked that ho "camo to Nebraska in 1837 ,
with a tnam and $500 ill money , loaned the
money and lost it. I then pre-empted 100
acres on which I now lire. I have ft nicely
improved , good buildings and orchard.
Tbero is an even section in the homo place.
I follow the plan of keeping calf of my farm
land in tame grass and alternating it with
the plow land. Last year I raised about
10,000 busheU of corn on 200 acres of ground ,
soveuty-fivo aoroos of wheat averaged
thirty bushels per aero ; forty acres of oatu ,
avoraca fifty bushels. I never sell grain ,
but food it to stocK. I carry ubout 159 to 100
head of cattle and fed 155 head this yoar.
which I marketed at Omaha and consider it
a good stock market. I consider this as
Rood farming country as the world affords. "
IIiis Never Known n Failure.
R. T , McAdams snya : "I have boon hero
since lSii4. Started with nothing and bavo
steadtlv prospered. I own a well improved
farm of 400 acres ono mile southeast of Pom.
I urn not a stockman , but raise grain for sale
aud food a few hogs. I have never known a
failure ot crops in this county , though in
1875 the grasshoppers hurt us. Have , made
money every year. "
Mr. McAdams' wealth is not measured by
his farm and its improvements , as be bas
plenty of surplus means Invested in bank
stocu and other securities and is vice presi

Walnut Orovo Stock Farm.
Hon. Church Howe is bettor known as a
politician than farmer , nlthoueh bo is some
times called "Fwoor Howo" in Jest. A visit
to bis modal farm in the south'part of tbo
county near Howe Station , bowovor , would
convince any man that Mr. Howe is a prac
tical farmer on a largo scale. Ho is the
owner of the lineal , bast improved and most
scientifically operated stock farm in the
state. Mr. Howe lives on his farm and per
sonally directs all the labor performed on the
placo. When visited by the BEIS man Mr.
Howe wax found with rubber boots on , in
mud and water , superintending the
work of perfecting bis race true if , in
which ho had a force of twenty
men ongaccd. The heavy rains had
made it necessary to raise the track in
places. Tae track in question is a half milo
regulation track built by Mr. Howe for his
own private training course- and encircles a
fish pond fad by springs , from which bis mon
take llsh with hook and line that weigh as
high as six pounds. When it is stated that
Walnut Grove atouk farm ba.s on It 110 head
of trotting bred horses , it will explain why
Mr. Howe goes to tbo trouble aud expense of
fitting up n training track. The homo
farm contains 800 acres of land , and
there is enough moro scattered , about
to make ever 3.000 acres. Church
Howe bought bis first land tvvonty-throo
yearn ago. and in tbo intervening
years lias with cuoreygood taste and money ,
succeeded in making a model farm and an
olngant home. .Everything about tbo
place , in tbo house , about the
well kept and blgbly ornamented
lawns , or In the barns and shodsdiaplays the
taste and skill of the owner. Mr. Howe has
Just fiuishod planting out fifty acres of apple
trees , surrounded by a row of evergreens ix
foot apart , for protection and ornament. Ho
has about 1,000 bearing trees now. Ho ua
400 acres ot timothy and clover which stands
ino winters as wen anu grows as luxuriantly
as it does Jn the eastern states. Tboro is
usually about 100 acres of corn raised on the
place , or about 5,000 bushels , which Is all
used at homo. AVboat and bones are the
staple on Mr. down's place.
It is o pleasure to walk through Mr.
Tiowo's barn. The structure is 110x102 ,
with loom provided for elchty head of
horses , 130 tons of bay and has twenty box
BtalU of Improved pattern , containing some
of the best bred trotting stock In tbo state.
The barn is so arranged at tondmltofu
driveway tram each of tbo four sldos , as a
matter of convenience and for greater safety
In case ot fire. Tbo oftluo room ot the barn
Is neater and better kept thau the living
room of many families. It U provided with
wardrobe for blankets , a glass caio for bar-
ness , a modlcino CMO and other furniture.
