THE "SAND HILLS"
OF NEBRASKA
OFFERS SPLENDID POSSIBILITIES
FOR STOCK RAISING.
A Heretofore Neglected Section Which
Is Fast Coming to the Front and
Attracting the Attention of Stock
men and Farmert.
(From Carlson's Hural Hevlow.)
It has been agreed by the editors
find publishers of Nebraska, that dur-
lng tho month of September each will
wrlto and publish a special article,
taking for a subject somo featuro of
Nebraska life, production or develop
ment. Fearing that ono of the most
Interesting districts of Nebraska will
bo overlooked by others, I am going
to take as my subject for this special
article, tho "Sand Hills" of Nebraska.
While this namola larcoly a -misnomer
as gonerally applied to many
parts of tho state, It is usually made
to include somo fifteen counties, all
located In tho contral northern part
of tho state. When I say that tho
term "sand hills" Is a misnomer as
generally used, I mean that many
jiartB of tho so called "Sand Hills"
are of a clay formation, and contain
no moro sand than is generally found
in clay soils, at leaBt no more than !b
necossary to make tho clay produc
tive of crops.
The Sand Hills of Nebraska offer
rich field for study. As yet moBt
Ncbraskans know little or nothing of
this region, nnd ovon our own soil
investigators, and soil oxperts, have
pasBod over this district of tho stato
without any attempt to glvo this dis
trict moro than a passim; notice.
Moro has boen dono with referonco
Band of Ihe Sand Hill district Tho
ono element alwayB wanting Is liumuB.
This has boon prevented from form
ing bocauso of flroB und the moving
particles of sand In earlier times.
SInco i'-es havo boen prevented tho
soil has become bound together with
vegetation In tho form of native
grassos. Nature Is n great healer,
and if Area can bo prevented for a
few years more, tho Sand Hills will
become ono of tho best grassed coun
tries In Amorlca, especially if we con
sldor quality of grass. There Is a
small area of Sand Ililln extending
Into Lincoln county, and also In
Dundy county, tho latter extending In
to Colorado. For tho purposes of
this article only tho district north of
tho Platte river is considered. Here
tho Sand Hills consist of rounded
dunes, saucor-shaped valleys, clay
valley lauds, and extensive hay flats,
ho latter sublrrlgated with a water
table quite near tho surface.
Tho Sand Hills differ In agricul
tural valuo and Importance as do all
other soli formations. In no other
one characteristic can the value of
Sand Hill soil bo foretold with such
certainty as in substrata of water.
In tho poorest districts of this region
tho water table will bo reached with
out encountering anything but sand.
In other districts tho water will be
reached undornoath a strata of clay.
Tho latter Is tho moro general rule
of finding water, and In this forma
tion the surfaco soil 1b always pro
ductive. Agriculturally, tho poorest
soil 1b found in tho eastern limit of
the Sand Hill area, the soil Increas
ing In valuo, as ono goes westward,
until tho clay lands of western Ne
braska aro roached, oxcopr, that tho
rainfall decreases with longitude.
There Is also a difference noticed
in the productivo value of Sand Hill
lands between thoso drained to tho
north, and those drained to the south.

gion than tho soli and Kb posslbllltcs.
It Is doflnitoly known that Wio tomp
eraturo decroascB as ono gooa west
ward and northward, tho mean tem
perature for tho Btato being 48.B do
groefl, tho oxtromo wost being two
degrees lower than tho oxtromo eaat,
and tho oxtromo north slightly' Iobs
than six dogroos lower than tho ox
tromo south. DoBtructlvo hot winds
soldom reach tho Sand Hill region,
whllo they aro qulto frequent' hi tho
cxtromo eouthorn part of tho state.
This year haB given excollont oppor
tunity for studying tho hot winds and
tiioir effect upon tho crops of tho
several parts of tho state. This
study dlBclosos tho fact that Boll has
much to do with tho dostructlvenoss
of thoso hot wlndB. Turnout the
stato, without rofproncos to latitude
or longltudo, crop's suffered most In
the districts of clay soils, and tho
purer tho clay tho moro cropB suffer
ed. On tho clay Bolls in tho south
ern part of tho stuto crops sufforod
nil tho way from partial to total Iobb
tf crops, ami especially true Is this
or corn. In tho Sand Hills nnd thru
out north Nobraaka tho corn will bo
from CO porcont of a crop to a full,
or normal crop. Tho only areas In
tho Sand Hills that havo Bufforod
from hot wlndB this yoar, aro tho
clay soil aroaa. Tho only hot wind
destructive of corn in tho Sand 11111b
this year occurred on Wodiiosday,
tho 27th of August, when corn suffer
I'd on, tho clay bottom lands along
tho principal streams.
It will ho Impossible In an artlclo
puch as this to dovoto much Bpaco to
tho geology of this district. It may
bo woll that this Is bo, slnco there 1b
mich a wldo (llttoronco of opinion on
tills Biitiject. All nro agroed howovor,
that this formation Is tho result of
tho erosion nnd decomposition of the
Ixiup Fork formation. This forma
tion spreads qvor all of western No
liraskn and lu composed of bods of
clay, sand and limestone, which when
thoroly eroded and mixed by tho
action of tho winds boc&mos tho flno grazed there
ss yc
north and into branches of tho Platte
toward tho southeast. Immediately
south of tho rldgo or highest dunes
aro to bo found tho most productive
lands, and It is hero ono finds moro
of the saucor-shaped valloys, or flats.
Most of those flats aro as fertile and
productivo as tho high-priced lands of
Iowa and Illinois, and many farms on
such soils will harvest bettor crops
this yoar than will $200 land3 further
oast.
Another district in tho Sand Hills
of Nebraska call for special mention.
Theso aro the oxtenslve and valuable
hay flats at tho source of the Elk
horn river systom. Hero entire
townships will bo found, all of a very
productivo typo of soil, and with tho
water tablo but a few feet below
tho surface. It Is such soils that havo
lit a da Nowport, Dassott, and other
towns known to all AmorlcniiB for
thoir lmmcnso output of liny of tho
highest quality. There 1b no failure
of crop here, always an Incomo, nnd
In tho near future such Innds will
command a very high price.
No district In America surpasses
tho Sand Hills In wator, cither In
tho quality, or tho easo with which It
may bo secured. Tho best of puro
soft water, and very cool, may he had
nnywhoro In this region nt depths of
ton to fifty foot. Tho wator Is al
ways found in gravel, and with tho
exceptions of n few placos in the ox
tromo eastern odgo of tho district,
under clay, Tho district Is well wa
tored with running streams, which
find their way to tho Niobrara or
Plutto rivers.
In dry hot soasons such as tho pros
ont ono, tho agricultural value of a
country may bo studied host. Tho
proof of tho fact that the Sand Hills
district of Nebraska Is to play an Im
portant part In tho futuro wealth of
tho utnto and country, is aeon this
year In tho millions of dollars worth
of grass going to wasto for want of
cattle to cat It. And this grnas Is of
oxcollont quullty, cs seen In tho quali
ty and condition of tho cattle being
Sand-Hllls cattle have
long been known In tho markets of
tho country, both feeders and packers
being quick and ready buyers of thorn.
Thoro aro somo 10,00!) square miles
of so-called Sand Hilln In Nebraska.
Every squaro mile Is capable of sup
porting 100 head or more of cattle.
If this region wcro stocked with cat
tle) to its full capacity, a million head
of cattle could be counted there. This
would represent a wealth of forty or
fifty million dollars, no mean sum In
the wealth or any state, r
ir ono was to calculate tho possi
bilities or this district by dealing In
units of division, tho section or
squaro mllo would he the unit, slnco
tho farms aro of a section In area at
tho present time. On ono section I
found a young man handling 112 cows,
the calf crop this Bummer numbering
91 head. Theso wcro sold for lato
fall delivery for ?25 each, making
him an incomo of $2,275 for the year.
On nnnt.hrr unction I found 146 head
of mixed cattlo supported, and on
many sections from 10 to 3D cows
woro being milked. In the caso of
BectionB with 100 acres or moro of
good productivo soil, no part of agri
cultural America offers duch oppor
tunities for tho man who is willing to
work, when the amount of Investment
required Is taken Into account.
Dairying, cattle, horses, hogs and
poultry are tho hopo of this district.
Alfalfai, all tho clovers and Mellilotus
do well on most of tho soils of the
district MillllotUB (sweet clover)
will grow on the highest hill, and tho
seed crop from this plant and alfalfa
aro highly profltablo. In tho valleys
as good corn will bo harvested this
year as can bo seen anywhere In the
corn bolt. Vegetables and especially
potatoes aro equal to the best that
can bo grown anywhere. Tho Sand
Hills potato has already made a place
for Itself In all tho markets of the
country, because of Its excollent quali
ty. Nature and tho settlers have work
ed wondcrB 'In tho improvement of
this country during tho past few
years. I first Baw tho Sand Hills In
1871. Then It was a country of Sand
Hills, and little else. Annual fires
destroyed tho grasses, and tho hills
wero llttlo moro than shifting piles
of sand. Today ono sees only grass,
in tho valleys, on tho hills, every
where grass, and for tho most part
fow cattlo to consume It, or to con
vert It Into ready money.
Tho homesteaders for the most part
woro mon and women from tho shops
and schools and railroads of tho coun
try, who possessed no means to Im
prove their homes or stocK tneir
land, and who possessed no know
ledge of tho needs or possibilities of
tho country. This makes tho present
need of tho district men, with some
money 'o stock their land, and who
possess somo knowledge of farming
nnd stock raising. Tho district will
mnko no rapid progresB in the way
of producing wealth until a now type
of owner recures the land, rhose of
tho first Bottlers who camo from the
farms and possess somo knowledge of
farming and livestock uro making
good. Those are Interested in tho very
best development of tho country, and
are building school houses, making
roads, and in many other ways uro
proving themselves valuable assets of
the district.
Another need of this district, as It
Is of ovcry other new part of our
country, Is a national banking or cur
roncy system which does not penalize
tho first settlors, and tho first pro
ducers, or a new country by compell
ing them to pay a higher interest rate
than those who do not bo much noed
financial aid aro compellod to pay. It
seems Impossible for these settlers
to obtain money at a lower rate than
ten per cent, while the now settlers
of Canada, Costa Ulca, Chllo and Ar
gentina can obtain financial aid at
a flyo per cent rate. No agricultural
district, of this country can pay ten
per cent interest on the productive
capactty of the district, and yet these
poor peoplo who noed financial help
so much aro compelled to pay a rate
no country will Justify. This is re
tarding the progress of tho district,
and will retard it as can nothing else.
No part of the country 1b surer of re
turns on Investments than the Sand
Hills of Nebraska, and If these people
could secure money to finance them
solves at just rates their progress
would be most rapid.
With pther editors In Nebraska I
havo long advocated Nebraska Invest
ments for Nebraska. Thobo who fol
low most closoly to tho linos of their
lcavo a country known to them for
years for Its certainty of crops for
one of which they know nothing is
ono of thoso uuoxplainnble things no
man can understand,
This district by reason of Its rich
grasses, puro water, healthful cll
mato and cheap lands Is singularly
fitted to make homoa for tho renters
on high-priced lands further east.
There Is no reason why a renter
should not becorno his own landlord
whllo such opportunities aro his.
Thoro Is no better way of solving the
landlord and tenant problem in rural
America than for renters to buy talB
land while It enn be had at a low
price. They will not only become
their own landlords, but they aro
sure of a double profit, the one from
tho production of tuo land, the other
from tho rise In tho valuo of tho land.
in a fow years It will require a large)
sum of money to buy a Bectlon In tho
Sand Hills of Nebraska. Any laud,
anywhere In Amorlca that will pro-
duce the wealth theso lands aro capa
ble of producing, will not long re
main cheap. Today thoso lands can
bo had at a very low price.
Thoso intending to buy and settle
upon these lands will do well tb study
tho mnchlnory needs of tho district.
Much of tho farm machinery used In
Iowa and Illinois will not be needed
here. Such .machinery as dairying
and stock growing require will bo the
machinery ueeded by thorn. This dis
trict Is preeminently a livestock coun
try, nnd to convert the grasses of the
country into money should be the aim
of tho farmer here. There Is a placo
for a silo In thlB country, and thoy
aro being built quite rapidly. Pas
turo for summer, alfalfa, mellilotus,
and the native hay for winter, supple
mented wltli sllago, will Boon develop
this district Into a high class of Inde
pendent farmers, If good stock bo pro
vided to consume this feed. Many of
tho first Bottlers now havo bank
accounts from the sales of cream and
poultry, and some of these had very
little to begin with.
Settled by men who mean business,
who are not afraid of honest labor,
who appreciate the futuro possibilities
of this district, tho Sand Hills of
Nobraska will play an Important part
in the production of Nebraska wealth
for all time to come.

which, while not

moBt practical and timely.
Gas.
Who first used tho word "gas" and
why? Merely becauso of tho supposed
resemblance of tho product of burn
ing carbon to the chaos af tho
Greeks. "This spirit, hitherto un
known," wrote tho experimenter Van
Holmont In 164S, "I call by tho new
name gas, and I call It &o because be
ing untamable, It is scarcely distin
guishable from tho chaos of the an
cients." A glimpse at modern gas de
vices will show how far removed
from untnmabillty Is the gas of today.
Pleasures of the Table.
"Then I commended mirth, bocauso
a man hath no better thing under the
sun than to eat, and to drink, and to
bo merry." Ecclcsiastcs, 8:15. "And
I will say to my soul, 'Soul, thou hast
much goods laid up for many years;
take thltio ease, cat, drink and bo
merry.'" Luke 12: 10. "What ad van-
tageth It me if tho doad rise not? Let
us oat and drink, for tomorrow wo
die. I. Corinthians 15:32. "Let us
oat and drink, for tomorrow wo shall
dlo." Isaiah, 22:13.
When You Sneeze.
The custom of saying "God bless
you" to a person when ho sneezes
originated among the ancients, who,
fearing danger from it, after sneezing
made a short prayer to the gods, as
"Jupiter, help me." Tho custom a
mentioned by Homer, tho Jewish rab
bis and others. Polydoro Vergil says
It took its rise nt tho tlmo of tho
plague In 558, when the infected fell
doad, sneezing, though apparently In
good health.
Wagon With Sails.
In 1C22 ono of tbe wonders to bo
seen at Tho Hague was a wagon or a
Bhlp or a combination of both. A
traveler of that tlmo wrote: "This
onglno hath wheels and sails, will
hold abovo twenty people and goes

This text suKKOsts religion, the re
Hgion of him who spoke tho words,
and we desiro to Mslst that this re
ligion should bo the supreme thing In
life, its lack being promptly acknowl
edged. Tho apostle James does not give a
definition of religion when ho BayB
"pure religion and undeflled boforo
God and the fathor Is this, to visit
the fatherless and widows In their af
fliction, and to keep himself unspot
ted from tho world." Two elements
of religion only hero appear, that
which Is broadly called charity, which
with many is nothing moro than al
truism, and separation from the
world, which has been designated re
cently as aloofness. In religion there
is something that Is positive, it must
go beyond kind deeds to' the needy,
and retirement from the world. A
great theologian defines religion as
the sum or tho relations which man
sustains to God, and comprises tho
truths, the experiences, tho actions
and institutions which correspond to,
or grow out or those relations.
As thua defined religion must bo
the supreme thing ip lire. This life
may he of tho community, for no com
munity realizes tho acme of social
happiness unless It Is in a corporate
way respectful to tho elements of re
ligion Just presented; but wp desiro
to place tho emphasis on tho indi
vidual life. We would not do this he
cause wo ignore community life, but
because reaching the individual lives
that make the community we reach
tho community In a way that is in
finitely moro satisfactory than by
reaching It in Its corporate capacity.
Wo would not confuse any individual
by calling his attention to. religion as
Bupreme in tho community, but as su
preme In himself.
Tho first reason for this is that
God commands It as In the text an
nounced, as creator, preserver, dally
benefactor and guarantor of blessings
on man, tho value of which cannot bo
measured. This right of God to com
mand is denied by many, and not
even a word of thanksgiving for tho
daily blessings or lire, nor a prayer
for their continuance is heard, ex
cept from very few.
Tho universal belief in the Immor
tality of tho soul of man puts em
phasis on the valuo of tho perma
nent. Religion directly affects the
permanent. It emphasizes that which
Is beyond this life, yet ono or tho
strange things or human experience
is that multitudes como to tho end
or llfo as ir there was nothing be
yond. The old prophet's "prepare to
meet thy God" 1b not a mere matter
or historical Interest, It should ring
In tho ears or every living man and
woman. After death there Is Judg
ment appointed of God, and tho
judge has likewise beon appointed.
But what are tho issues of judgment?
In shoit, heaven and hell. Yet how
cynically these great facts are thought
of and spoken about, but rollglon pro
vides for the winning of the one, and
escaping tho other. If heaven and
hell are myths, there must be n re
vision not only or the teachings or
Jesus Christ and his apostles, but ot
the moral philosophy or all the agos.
K these groat facts of the beyond
wero a more permanent element in
the evangel of the day, that evangel
would be far moro effective.
Another reason why religion should
bo supremo Is that tho worry of men
and women over the things of small
importance would disappear. In
close connection with this ext Jesus
spoke ot tho anxious care for food
and clothing. That Is what Is eating
out the llfo of multitudes today,
something entirely unnecessary. If
religion la mado supreme, food, cloth
ing, housing and tho like, will he add
ed by God. God secB to It that thoso
who obey his command, and recognize
tho purposo of their bplng are pro
vided for, for as Father he knows
that mon havo need of all theso
things, nnd yet supplying them ho
nowr puts a promlum on laziness or
unthrlft.
The word first as used here may bo
taken first as referring to Intorest or
concern. At this point even n little
thought as to what religion can do
for man would Increase this concern.
But the word may moan first In time,
nnd the text might be paraphrased in
this way, becorno religious by taking
tho Initial step of believing in Jesus
Christ, nnd do it without a mo
ment's delay.
