Western Nebraska and
1
COLORApO FARMS
i
are fast increasinr in value. Their 1915 yield of from 25 to 45 bushels i
of wheat per aciwill exceed the present price of similar and ad- i
joining lands. Indications point to the great demand for these deeded i
Western lands that the West has yet seen. The incoming inquiries
show already the movement to get hold of one of these farms before it i
is too late; if you can buy these lands at from $15 to $35 an acre you <
can make up your mind that they will be 50 per cent higher in the near i
futuer. Dairymen are making money. The silo has revolutionized i
farming on these lands and insures a return value that has never been <
known. All farm improvements on adjacent lands bear testimony to i
their worth. Yuma County, Colorado, last year produced $1,275,000 i
worth of wheat, $600,000 worth of corn and $1,280,000 worth of stock. j
This was about the production of other counties where these lands lie ,
in Western Nebraska and Eastern Colorado. j
Let me send you maps, folders, and place
you in touch with land agents and otherwise
help you. I am employed by the Burlington
to do this. !

More About Sudan Grass.
The results of three years have nc
proved at the North Platte Exper
mental Substation that Sudan grass i
superior to sorghum, but later test
under different weather conditions ma
give results more favorable to Suda
grass. It is lauded as a dry land cro
but may, like brome grass, prove
humid or subhumid crop rather than
semiarid crop.
The feeding value per ton seems t
be about the same as sorghum or pra:
rie hay. As the Sudan grass stem
are fine and rather leafy there ma
not be as much waste as in feedin
sorghum. On the other hand, th
stems of the Sudan grass seem ver
dry and somewhat pithy, and possibl
are not relished as much as the stem
of sorghum. This is particularly tru
during the present season, the cattl
eating the sorghum with much mor
relish.

I Detection of Spoiled Canned Goods.
3 When buying canned goods, the

College of Agriculture says to be sure
- to examine every can and to discard

caused by the pressure of gas within,
e which is formed by the action of bac
P tera. Food so acted upon is unwhole

1, Green-Manure Crops Did Not Pay.
3 The yields have been increased by
s green-manure crops at the North Platte
Experimental Substation, the ad
ditional cost of producing the crop, as
represented by the rental of the land
e an extra year, the cost of seed for the
. green-manure crop, and the extra till
1 age that must accompany this method,
. is so great that the final profit is not
e as great as from ordinary methods.
