. I 'C$ v' K PROPOSED POWER LINE THROUGH NEBRASKA Representative of Dubuquo Dam Duys Rlght-of-Woy Along Platte River The Lexington Pioneer says thnt about two weeks ago n man visited formers living south of the Platte river in Dawson county and secured options on n strip of land ten feel wide qn the bank of the river, paying each owner ten dollar cash, with the privilege of purchasing the strip for $100 within a specified time. From one of the formers vho gnve a lease the man stated that he represented the company that has just about completed tho big dam across the Mississippi river at Dubuque, Iowa, which was built for power purposes, and that an olectric power line would be built across the states of Iowa and Nebraska, and the power sold to those who may desire to uso it for lighting or other purposes, Ho statod that options on land for tho right-of-way had been secured from Columbus to Lexington, and that the linn was continue from Lexington to North Platto and then follow tho South Platte river to Denver. He was enthusiastic as to tho possi bilities of electricity and declared that within ton years every farmer along tho jina of the company ho represented would be connected by wire, and that Jhis homo would bo lighted and heated by electricity at a less cost then the price of coal. Also, that tho noccss&ry power to operate the machinery gener ally used on a farm would be furnished. The fact that money is advanced to secure the leases on the narrow strip of Jondi shows that tho promoters are in earnest and mean business. Echoes of the Blizzard. It is estimated at the town of Flats that 3,000 head of cattlo porishod In central McPherson county as a result of tho recent blizzard, bevcral ranch man lost as much as half their herds. The driving wind and snow stripped the hair from the legs of the cattle. Fat three -and four-yoor steers died in large numbers and in a herd of GOO yearling calves only 100 survived. In a single -fence corner us many as fifteen head were found and since the snow has-begun to melt somo of the drifts aro found to have covered scores of cattlo. Herman Luci&n, who lives several miles north and west of this place, had taken home n large gnlvanized tank the the day before the storm. Ho placed it on n prominence near tho wind mill where he expected to install it for watering purposes. Tho next day it was found a milo nnd a half from the place, undlnits jnurnoy it hod crossed four wire fences without breaking thum down. Stnploton Enterprise. Myrtle and Vicinity. Vf.

C. F. TEMPLE, Local Agent. Zm PRESENT STATUS OF DRY LAND FARMING Extract from Address Delivered by W. P. Snydor at Conservation Congress But when tho farmer has becomo thoroughly versed in tho most Ap proved methods and Is practicing them and is using tho most promising seed, yet it is a fact that tho offect of a scvero drought has not been overcome. Conditions mny becomo so unfavoroblo that his crops do not return a profit Ho may withstand ono years' drought without much lessening of crop yield but when two or three dry seasons camo together, his returns aro low. Ho can accomplish much but ho is not yet able to overcome the results of a defic ient rainfall. Crops nro more certain than under old methods, but there nro still seasons when profitable crops will not bo grown. The drought is still with us though its fangs have bean made dull by bettor mothods of tillage and better adaptoed varlotlcs. While all this hos been taking place and while wo hnvo been giving much attention to Qghting tho drought, it seoms to mo wo havo lost sight of somo of tho most oiTectivo weapons. Wo seem to have thought only of crop pro duction and hayo forgotten what may bo donotoincroosotho value of the crop produced. It matters little whether wo pioduco two bushols and sell them for $1 or nrodtico one bushel or a half bushel and sell it for $1. By increasing tho selling price of the product wo off set tho effect of drought os effectively as by finding wny3 of increasing tho yield. When tho homesteader wended his way to the western Nebraska prairio, stock raising was tho only lino of fann ing in evidence. But ho ciuno from a crop producing region and hjs thought naturally turned to producing crops. The now sottlnr and tho "land boomor" wore anxious to chnngo this from a Btock raising to a crop raising country. To omphaslzo stock raising has seemed to somo to bo troason. The result is that stock raising has been discouraged and neglected and crop growing has been given tho chief attention. Has tliis not gono too far? Would not tho peoplo bo moio prosperous If more time woro given to caring for stock and less to producing crops? It is my belief that crop growing and stock growing should go hand in hand. That -loss acres should be farmed in many locali ties and moro und bottor stock grown and given better care, iiiero is no crop quite so drought ro slstnnt as tho horse, tho cow and the hun. If the former will but milk somo cows and n6t go in dobt so much for groin binders ho will find that his credit la bottor. If ho will givo tho attention to tho hens that he is accustomed to giving to trying to produco grain for tho elevator, ho will find his work less disappointing and moro profitable I havo yot to boo a family fail that has given much attention to chickons and to milking cows. I know, at tho present time, families about North Platto that mako tholr living selling eggs and but ter, while tho crop end of the farming has not been paying its own way. I do not advise going into stock on a largo scale but rather to considor tho stock horses, cows, hogs nnd chickens -ns of fully as much importance as producing crops. Tho crops should bo produced but not to tho neglect of the stock. Wheat or corn may fall entirely but tho colt, calf, milk and oggs aro drought resistors worthy of more atten tion than usually given to them So far as my observation oxtends, the men, who aro succeeding nre those who follow a mixed lino of farmimr. umw crops which aro fed tostockond market their crops in the form of eggs, butter, iiuks, L-uiuu iiuu uoraes. This is the fnrmer who had the easiest, most comfortable nnd moat prosperous lifo in western Nebraska. Tho groin former has not succeeded. He has not yet found a means of combatting tho drought successfully. Even if ho should find tome way of accomplishing this, he will soon meet with tho prob lem of deficient fertility, nnd ho will be forced into a mixed lino of farming. Nature has placed a limit on the acre yield of tho dry farm beyond which wo cannot if without tho triplication of This policy covers loss caused by injurios sustained as follows: While- (n) In or on a public convey ance, including the platform, steps or running board thereof, proTidcd by a common carrier for passenger service; (b) In an elevator used for passenger service only, mine ele vators accepted; (c) In or on a privato convey ance, except bicycles, horses or motor cycles; (d) In a private residence, public cafe, church, hnll, hotel, office building, passenger depot, pavillion, restaurant, store, or theatre, which burns or collapses; (o) In consequence of a cyclone, tornado or oarthquako reported to bo such by tho weather bureau or public prints of this country; (f) Being struck by lightning; (g) The explosion, rupture or collapse of a steam boiler; (h) Being struck or run down, by a public or privato conveyance while walking on or across any right cf way. Largo amounts payablo as elective indemnity, in lieu of weekly indemnity, at the option of the insured. Issued to Male or Female Risks. more water at critical times and there fore, I bcliovo that the solution of the dry farming problem is to induce the farmer to bo content with a small, fairly cortain income derived from livo stock of various kinds rather than to be looking for quick wealth from great fields of grain.
