Some Facts About Nebraska.
Not many of us reulizu just whnt a
great Btnto is N-bruska nor its wealth.
For this yum 1909 tho vhIuo of the ngri
cultural products is placed at $212,000-.
000, the livo Htuck at $131,000,000, the
dairy and poultry products at $63,000,
000, and the manufactured products at
$200.00I),OOU, a total of $000,000,000 In
round figures.
"The total of w.igo paid In tho viui
oua indutttrlus in Nebraska is over $30,
000,000, not including farm anil domes
tic labor.
"The egg crop of Nebraska is worth
more than the mineral output of Colo
rado. "The poultry, butter, and ogg crop
of Nebraska ia worth moro thun the
gold and silver output of tho entire
United States.
"Nebraska's corn crop each yoar is
worth moro than tho total tobacco crop
of tho nation.
"Our small grain crop euch yenr ia
worth more than tho Conner output of
the United States by over $30,000,000,
"Our agricultural and dairy output
in worth as much ns Pennsylvania's
coal output, anthracitn and bituminous,
"An uverago corn crop in Nebraska
would fill enough standard freight curs
to make u train reuchlng from Denver
to ChicnEO. 1.040 miloa. with 172 miloB
of corn-filled cars to ornament tho aid
trucks.
"The 1909 whont crop of NebruBka
would till enouirh Uurlinirton curs o
make a solid freight train reaching
from McCook to Omuhu, with a few
cars left over to ornament side tracks
"If cho total grain and huy produc
tion of Nebraska should bo loaded into
standard freight cars, tho cura would
make a train long enough to reach
from Omaha to San Francisco, with a
fow hundred miles of cars loft over for
good measure. When ho engineer in
tho cub at Omaha recognized tho sig
nal from the conductor in San Fran
cisco, it would be one day, twenty
hours and thirty minutes before the
conductor heard tho answering whistle.
Republican votera who dcBlro to voto
tho struight ticket this vonr by placing
their "X" in tho party circle near tho
top of tho ballot aro wurncd that the
democratic circle comes first ut the
top this year instead of tho republican
circle, aa has been tho case for several
years past, and that the republican
party circle appears second from the
top of thu ballot. Tho law so prvides
owing to thu fuct that tho democratb

when a complete lint of state officers, a

While no opinion concerning the finnl

portunity of drawing one's own con
