Reports in Nebraska Show General
. , Increase in Percentage.
S2IAIX GRAIN IS AIL CUT
Inwa la Early to Estimate Cent,
,t the Staad la Reported t
be Making Good
Headway.
Burltnston, Union Pacific and North
n-eatern crop report! show an abundance
of rain last week - and a general and
material Improvement In the condition
of corn, potatoes, alfalfa, grass and paa-
. turea, .
Small grain in Nebraska la all cut and
a goodly portion of It is threshed. The
wheat yield ranges from fifteen to forty
bushels per acre and everywhere is of
the tert quality in years. Oats run from
thirty to sixty bushels per acre, weigh.
Ing out from thirty-two to , thirty-four
pounds per bushel. - ' ;;
It Is too early to predict the outcome of
the - corn crop, but at this time )t is
making good headway and gives promise
of, being much better than an average.
Taking the corn by divisions and figur
ing on a VQjr cent basis, the Burling
ton gives the following estimate: Omaha,
f$i Lincoln, 91; Wymore, M and McCook
division, W per cent "
- The Union Pacifio and Northwestern,
in. making up the estimates, deal with
towns and the territory tributary and re
port favorable conditions in all localities
along the respective lines. Figures of the
Union Pacific on wheat yields are:
Schuyler and vicinity, 30 to 28; Elba, SO
to 36; Kearney, an average of 10; Lewel
hm, 80 to 35; Wahoo, 20 to 23 bushels per
acre.
' Northwestern figures on wheat yields
are: Henderson, 30 to 30; Bruno, 25 to 28;
Geneva, 18 to 30; Bhlckley, 23 to 30;
Scribner, IS to 20; Albion, 20 to 25 bush
els per acre. i .
Borne localities report considerable dam
age by hall, but they are widely scat
tered and the area Is small. Wherever
.ugar beets are raised there is promise
an Immense crop, which Is also true
of garden truck and all of the root
plants. , ,
' In some sections of the state the third
cutting of alfalfa Is being made, turning
out from one to two tons per acre.

UNION PACIFIC LOSES .
: MONEY IN K1ETH COUNTY
That railroading is not- all profit is
shown by Union Pacifio figures In con
nection with the money received and itaid
tout in Keith county, this state. And .ac
cording to company officials, there are a
i number of counties In Nebraska and a
still larger number in Colorado, Wyoming
and Utah where the showing is even
more unfavorable tor the railroad. Keith
county is cited as an instance on ac
count of the figures being at hand.
" In Keith, county, for the fiscal year
ending aune 30, the Union Pacifio paid
1 51 per cent of the total tax of the county
and on the other band the total business,
-both freight and passenger, in and out of

Railroad Starts
to Advertise Its -s
Freight Business
Railway advertising is In no way out
of the ordinary, but the advertising copy
of railroads has heretofore been confined
to putting forth the advantage of rail
roads for the purpose at inducing pas
senger travel. w
The Chicago Great Weit?rn railway has
started an advertising campaign to show
the advantages in shipping freight via
the Chicago Great Western.' This is an
entirely, new departure for railroads. In
asmuch as the earnings of . the freight
department' are the biggest item In the
earnings of a railroad, It Is rather re
markable that the force of advertising
has never before been used to 'promote
the increase , of freight . business. Ship
pers can unquestionably be, influenced If
they are told about the superior facilities
of a railroad, in the receiving, handling
and forwarding of freight Every railroad
maintains a force of freight solicitors who
advance arguments why their road should
be selected. These arguments put Into
the form of advertising will unquestion
ably influence the routing of freight just
as people have been . Influenced by ad
vertising in the selection of a railroad
for their own Journey. ' ;
The tact of the matter is that in days
when railroad advertising was young it
was placed 'with newspapers in exchange
for transportation , and . the advertising
was done for the benefit ot the passenger
department : , r
Some day some railroad will wake up
to . the fact that they need an entirely
separate advertising department,; which
will be as distinct and separate as the
auditing or operating , departments and
will handle the publicity for any or all
of the other departments. This step of
the Chicago Sreat Western railway
shows that there is progress in . this
direction.
Young Hebrews Have
Secured Quarters
The Young Men's Hebrew association
haa secured rooms on the fifth floor of
