SECURE A FARM. IN North platte VALLEY THE NORTH PLATTE VALLEY, frequently called the “Scottsbluff country,” is making a more wonderful showing every year in its production of irrigated crops—sugar beets, alaflfa, potatoes, wheat and oats; it is becoming one of the richest localities for breeding and fattening of live stock. Many Government irrigated holdings of 160 acres are being reduced to 80 acres, making it possible for land seekers to secure 80-acre tracts irrigated under the reliable system of the Government on terms that will never again be duplicated. All we can ask is that you visit the Valley and let our agents put vou in touch with reliable firms. Ask about the crop tonnage, the increased population, and note the general prosperity; this will tell you what advance in land values you may expect there in the next five years „ Or write for the Burlington’s new publication, “North Platte Valley. you go there and see for your self this locality which is the talk S.

D ' According to figures tabulated by ^ the Nebraska state board of agricult B ure the 1915 rye crop amounted to 3,002,011 bushels and the cash value is “ estimated at $1,200,804. The acreage ,’ was 93,408 and the average yield per acre was 32.13 bushels. Uniform Valuations. Secretary Brenecker of the state board of equalization is conducting a *• campaign for uniformity of valuations B by county assessors. He has com e piled a table showing the valuations f in Valuing automobiles, live stock, - farm lands and other items of prop f trey in Nebraska. He will attempt to ’> secure more uniformity in fixing 1 values in 1916. f _ Build Paved Road. r Inmates of the state penitentiary • Thursday completed eleven blocks of state paving on Holdrege street. Gov ^ ernor Morehead planned to test the * ability of the convicts in constructing r highways, and the engineers have pro ' nounced the experiment a success in J every way. The scheme seems to have possibilities, and farmers of Ne 3 braska are displaying keen interest. Could Make Eight Milion More. B As an illustration of what can be r done in the way of increasing the pro s ductive capacity of cows by selection alone, the Douglas County cow tester, 1 under the direction of the Dairy De partment of the College of Agricul ture, in three years reports an increase of 50 pounds of butter fat per cow. 1 Were it possible to increase the pro r duction of each of the 700,000 dairy 1 cows in the state at the same rate, we e should have 35,000,000 pounds ad » ditional butter fat. Estimated at 25 i cents a pound it would mean an ad : ditional income to the dairy farmers • of $8,750,000. This would be enough • to build 43 dairy buildings like the one j being erected this year at the Uni versity Farm.
