Ileatricf. Kcb.. Sfut. 25. Jolm

litatrice, ha just returned from a
four-month' visit in Czcho-S!ov
kia, where he, in company with atiout
400 other Bohemian eommemorat
eJ the restoration of independence of
their native land. AH of the party
are now American citizen.
Mr. Kopecky relate ome inter
eating condition as he found them'
in that country, chiefly at Prague,
the capital of old Bohemia, and the
capital of the new republic. Approx
imately J00 year agt Mr. Kopccky
explains, Bohemia was destroyed and
the country annexed to Austria. The
country has been made a republic
'ince the end of the war.
F:od Plenti.'ul.
"1'oA food are p'cntiful m
fz .ho-Slova' ia, although there i
a shortage of t'ilk," Mr. Kopccky
ia; I. "A good meal can be purchased
at the better patronized restaurants
for the equivalent oJ an Anerican i
25 cent piece, although this doe
not include a port'on of the national)
beverage. Mtvsic and entertainment
tre plentiful."
Every American dollar that he
cashed brought $16 worth of Czech
money, Mr. Kopecky declare. Ho
ixncrienccd no difficulty in exchang
ing the American orders in the bank
there at the rate of 84 kronen for
the dollar, the normal value oi which
h 20 cents, Mr. Kopecky states.
0 Suiti Sell for $15.
"This rate of exchange makes it
possible for an American with Amer
ican money to live well at reasonable
prices," Mr. Kopecky says. "A sui
of clothes that would cost $50 here
can be purchased for the. equivalent
of $15 in American money in Prague
"There are many American tour
ists in Czecho-Slovnkia, and they add
to the prosperity of the luxury trades
because they ta'vf' advantage of the
exchange rates to purchase bargains
in jewelry and other luxury goods.
"Most of the people appear to be
enjoying life and there are few signs
of distress. Our special train was met
at stations all along the route
by delegations with band and
marching school children and every
where there seemed to be a spirit of
rehabilitation."

Inventory
By JACK LEE
Eveiy once in a while individuals as well as
business concerns should take an inventory and see
what is remaining on the shelves unmoved. In
times like this, when it takes every ounce of business
brain and pep a man can muster to keep business
going, it is well that the shelves do not become clut
tered with things that are burdensome.
That we may take stock of ourselves and know
again just Sow valuable our state is, these facts and
figures, obtained from the state department of agri
culture, are published.
When they are read, in spite of the cries of
"bad business" and sundry other calamity howls,
there will be more protuberant chests and a litt1
more life injected into the tired business and pro
fessional man.
Nebraska has 100 kinds of soil and a range of
climatic conditions that' assures good crops on all
of them. Hay, alfalfa, grain and sugar beets com
pose the biggest crops.
The total area of the state is 76,808 square
miles, or 49,157,120 acres, and the population is
1,296,372, an increase of 8.7 per cent since 1910.
In 1920 the 16,178,404 acres under cultivation pro
duced a crop valued at $306,469,000. ' The total
value of farm machinery on Nebraska .farms was
estimated at $10,000,000 and the value of the aver
age farm more than $20,000.
The total value of Nebraska live stock is $344,
000,000, the state ranking seventh, with Omaha the
second largest live stock market in the world.
More than 100,000 farmers milk 435,000 cows,
which annually produce 60,000,000 pounds of but
ter and 200,000,000 gallons of milk, these products
being valued at $40,000,000. There are 12,000,000
chickenscontributing $50,000,000 annually to the
wealth of the state. ,
The marketing facilities are ideal in Nebraska.
There are 6,742 miles of railroads, operated by
seven companies. Four trunk lines extend across
the state east arid west. In the east end of the state,
where 72 per cent of the population lives, there are
3,255 miles of railroads, the average distance from
a railroad station being seven miles, .j"
Nebraska spends annually $20)00,000 on her
public schools and $2,000,000 for the maintenance
of her roads. And after viewing all these encour
aging facts don't overlook the most important :
Omaha is the metropolis of this state that has done
such wonderful advancing in the past 10 years.
All roads in Nebraska lead to Omaha, where
out-of-town merchants find markets in yhich to do
their buying equal to any west of New -York and
where their needs are looked after with personal
attention. . , ;' ; ',; .
With all the calamity howlers busy about
"hard times' these facts should drown out such a
chorus." V" V-V v"
Omaha, according to a national financial
and commercial writer who visited ; the city last
week, is better off than any city of its size in the
nation. "Omahans don't realize how well off they
are," he said. - . . ' .;. -v ,;; - ,
More facts to prove his statements: '
The' average wealth of the ptopulation of
Omahais$300. V
4 The building and loan deposits for this year
are $47,088,525.
The savings accounts are $10,028,152.
Just because money is out of sight, and not
talking as loudly as it did in the "silk shirt epi
demic," don't think there is no money-it is being
saved. Thrift is the watchword of the home now.
With buying on the increase, especially retail
buying, the crops assured against destruction
by early frosts, building activities picking up to
give unemployed work the future dotesri't look so
dark after all, does it? , r '
