LEADS
FARM
IN
PROSPERITY
The census figures reveal sonic
sinking facts about agricultural pro
praM in Nebraska. During the past
decade Nebraska lias leaped to
fourth in rank in the total amounit
of farm property, now being exceed
ed only by Illinois, Iowa and Texas
In her per capita wealth for the peo
ple resident on the farms, Nebraska
is now sec Cad in rank being led
only by Iowa, which has $2,425 per
capita while Nebraska has $2,::ti0.
When compared with other stat; 3,
Nebraska's farm wealth assumes as
founding proportions.
The per capita wealth of the peo
pie on the farms in the UOKOd
States as a whole is $:;o; for the
great geographical sub-divisions of
the country U Is as follows: New
Kngland. Ttm; Middle Atlantic, $.V2":
Fast North Central. $1,172; West
North Central. $1.74:!: South Atlant
ic, $:!2t; Fast South Central, $:1IH;
West South Central, $rt2; Mountain
States, $1,042; Pacific Statei l,Hj
Nebraska. MJMd.
As compared with 'be corn belt
slates Nebraska tarmera h $i.4-"'"'
more per capita than these of Ohio,
$W4 more than Illinois, $1.1!' more
than Indiana. tM niore than Mis-!
sourl, and more than twice as much
as the farmers of Katnas. who can
count but $1,175 per capita, accord
ing to the I i I o census.
Nebraska farmers now have mor
,.r ipcrty than those of ill New iCng-!
land with the addition of New lei
si: . Maryland and Virginia; during
tne asi ten years Nebraska farm
ers have increased iheir wenbh lit
per cent more than those of Ohio
'i M cent more than those of In
diana. N per eeu more than Illinois.
121 per cent more than Michigan, Ifll
per iput more than Wisconsin, '.'0
pi i cent more than Minnesota, 7ti
ei cent more than town, 10 per
cent more than Missouri and 42
per cent more than Kansas.
The census bureau figures the
population of all towns under 2,500
as "rural population"; excluding the
population of the small towns, Ne
braska had II2N.40S people on her
farms in 1910; the per capita wealth
of these people actually on the farms
of Nebraska is $:i,60, or $18,000 per
family of five persons. This is $11,
410. per family more than the aver
age wealth of the United States.
The accomplishment of this stu
pendOUe result by a little over a
half million people on the farms of
Nebraska is a veritable marvel. The
soil of Nebraska is a great reservoir
of fertility; the average valuation
of farm hind is less than fifty dol
lars per acre; why should farmers
leave Nebraska lor Canada, the
northwest or southwest in search of
opportunity?
