Dry for Crops.
George Shrader end John Yardley
came hp this morning from their
home In Ilock bluffs precinct called
here by the necessity of getting some
mahhlne repair parts. Mr. Shrader
Btates that the hot weather and the
drouth Is affecting the pasture to
some extent but Is doing no damage
to wheat or corn In his estimation.
He believes that corn will make a
good crop If rain comes In a week or
ten days and as to wheat he looks
for a better crop than was phrophe
uled some days ago. Mr. Shrader is
at, present engaged In haying but he
hopes to be able to bring his family
and enjoy tho Fourth of July with
the riattsmouth folks. He Is feeling
quite well again and has been able

Accident at Oreapolln.
.Arthur Dean, a workman on the
pile driver force of the Missouri Tacl
flc, on the new bridge at Oreapolls,
yesterday sustained severe Injuries
while at his work. He was standing
under a pile which was being lifted
into place by the steam driver when
the chain holding the pile slipped
and the monster log of wood fell
to the ground. Fortunately It was
very high from the ground when the
accident happened and It did not
catch Mr. Dean with full force. As
It was It threw htm to the sand and
broke one rib on the right side.
Dean had a cant hook and was as
sisting In the operation of elevat
ing the pile and as It came down the
cant hook failed to hold It with the
unfortunate effect, as above stated.
A surgeon was called from this
City who advised the removal of the
yoitng man to a hospital at Omaha
which was done within a short time.
He ; was taken to an Omaha hospital
at '5' o'clock accompanied by his
brother where his Injuries can re
celve more care than In the boarding
cars.
Yardmaster, Chanes S. Johnson
of the Burlington departed on the
early train this morning for Omaha
where he expects to meet his wife
and return home with her. Mrs
Johnson has been In an Omaha hospi
tal for some days and Is now well
enough to be removed to her home
In this city, something which the
public will be glad to learn.

OUR Ol'JII STATE
OF
Fact That Should Be Scattered
Broadcast Over the World.
Japan, with forty mlllllons of peo
ple," enjoys a trade and commerce
amounting to about $400,000,000 a
year. This includes what Japan sells
to other nations as well as what Jap
an buys from other nations. In 1909
Nebraska raised from her soil and
produced manufactured articles from
Nebraska raw products, the enormous
total of $650,000,000. With 3 per
cent of Japan's population, therefore,
Nebraska produced and added to the
wealth of the world 60 per cent more
than Japan produced and purchased
from other nations. The total vol
ume of Japan's production and pur
chase was little more than half of
what the single state of Nebraska
raised from the soil and Bold direct,
or converted Into manufactured arti
cles In her own factories.
There are fewer than six states
that produce more food products than
they consume, and Nebraska Is one of
the six. Upon these five or six states
nations depend for their food sup
plies. Yet, with all of this remark
able record less than one-third of Ihe
tillable land of Nebraska Is under cul
tivation. Millions of acres of. tho
richest, soil In the world lie., within
the confines of Nebraska and have
never been touched by the plow. Oth
er millions of acres with desultory
cultivation have produced In an
abundance that has been the marvel
of the arglcultural world.
Why go Into the desolate and frigid
regions of the far northwest to un
dergo the hardships of pioneers, far
removed from railway facilities, and
then be able to secure only wheat
lands, when Nebraska, with six thou
sands miles of railroad and a splendid
live stock and market within her
borders, offers without hardship and
at a reasonable price land that will
not only produce wheat far excelling
the average, but will produce in
abundance every other crop that
grows In the temperate zone.
Nebraska wheat lands will produce
vastly more wheat to the acre than
the wheat lands of the Canadian
northwest, and In addition will grow
richer every year by the proper ro
tation of crops and produce abund
antly of corn, oats, rye, barley, al
falfa, speltz, broom corn and sugar
beets. Nebraska's crop averages are
the highest of any state In the union.
Compared with productivity, nearness
to market, railroad facilities and ev
erything else that goes to make life
worth living, Nebraska farm lands
are selling at a lower price than till
able land Is selling anywhere else
on the North American continent.
, The possibilities of Nebraska's soil
are beyond estimate. Already l,t pro
duces more corn to the acre than any
other Btate, and more wheat to the
acre than any other stato. Intensive
cultivation will add Immeasurably to
the yield. Eighty acres of corn land
In Nebraska are hot only more profit
able than five times that many acres
of wheat land In Manitoba or Alber
ta, but easier cultivated and sur
rounded by an Infinitely greater num
ber of comforts of life. And, too,
the eighty acres of Nebraska corn
land are no harder to secure than
the two or three hundred acres of
wheat land In chilly Canada.
Nebraska has room and a welcome
for thousands of homeseekers. It
has fertile lands that are cheap only
In price awaiting the energy of the
Industrious homeseeker.
If you want to locate In a state up
on land that will produce more of ev
erything than land In any other state;
If you want to locate In a state bless
ed hy superior educational facilities;
If you want to locate In a state where
the energy of the husbandman is re
warded bountifully; If you want to
locate In a Btate where ambition may
have Its full fruition; if you want to
locate in a stato where the climate
Is superb and the death rate the
smallest of any state In the union; If
you want to locate In a state where
you can begin with practically noth
ing and build a comfortable fortune
upon the yield of the Boll If you
want to locate In such a state as
this, come to Nebraska.
There Is only one trouble about
properly advertising the glories of
this great young state the truth
reads so like fiction that It Is diffi
cult to make the world believe. But
the facts and the figures are at hand
to prove every claim advanced for
Nebraska. The Bureau of Labor and
Industrial Statistics will be glad to
submit them to you. To those who
contemplate leaving Nebraska tn re
sponse to the glittering allurements
of the northwest's promoters we offer
the advice given by the elder Mr.
Weller to his son, Famlvel, "Don't."
To those of the east and of other
landi who contemplate seeking a new
home we would suggest, "Consider
Nebraska, study her possibilities of
n
the future and her record of the
past."
"We came unto the land whither
thou sentest us, and surely it floweth
with milk and honey."
That is Nebraska. The cities are
not walled, and there are no giants of
Anak. On the contrary, the people
of Nebraska await with a hearty wel
come all whom come to her confines
with the Intention and desire to build
homes and add to the wealth produc
tion of the world.
Trip to Kansas.
Judfee H. D. Travis and L. B. Egen
berger returned yesterday from a trip
of several days duration to the west
ern part of Kansas. The gentlemen
during their trip visited Ness and
other counties in that part of the
state and returned highly pleased
with the prospect. Judge Travis as
serts that never before has western
Kansas been so blessed as this year.
It has the greatest crops In Its his
tory and there are fields of golden
yellow wheat stretching away for
miles on every hand. The yield of
wheat in that section is something
which is really amazing and which
surprised both the Judge and Mr.
Egenberger. The average will be not
less than 30 to 40 bushels to the
acre and It is of fine quality. The
farmers of that part of the country
are jubilant over the results of the
year and feel that western Kansas
has been duly vindicated. The oats
crop Is another which in of unusual
excellence this year and corn never
before has such brilliant prospects.
The rainfall this spring and summer
has been very generous and this has
produced the fine crops syoken of.
The day the gentlemen were there a
heavy rain fell which came just exact
ly when It could do a great deal of
good and they were enabled to see
the country at Its prime. Prices for
land all over that section continue
on the uplift and It Is the fond be
lief of the landowners of that locality
that It will soon rise to heights which
the most sanguine had not expected.
Judge Travis owns several hundred
acres In the vicinity of Waukeeney,
Kas., and this land has advanced
withstrides and bounds until today
he could dispose of It at a handsome
Increase on the original Investment.
However, he does not Intend to sell
it as it Is paying him fine returns
on his Investment. A number of oth
er Cass county people are Interested
In the land in that locality and they
agree with him that It good prop
erty to hold.
In Police Court. -
Judge Archer yesterday afternoon
held an seance with George Polsall,
Jr., who was accused by Fred Ohm
of hitting him, the said Ohm, a sev
ere and resounding blow upon the
bare face with his, the said Polsall's
fist. The difficulty arose over the
Relnhackle matter, Mr. Polsall asking
Ohm If there was no way by which
Louie could be rescued from the toils
of the law. Mr. Ohm remarked that
he knew of no way unless Mr. Polsall
went and took Louie from the donjon
keep which remarked kind a riled
Polsall who swatted Ohm a mighty
swat upon the open works. Mr. Ohm
being a man of discretion promptly
fled with, Mr. Polsall hot footing It
In pursuit. D. L. Amlck, one time
police chief of the town here Inter
fered and asked Mr. Polsall to de
sist from his reckless pursuit of the
fleeing Ohm which Is some electrical
name, and this was done. Then hur
ried Ohm of the electrical name, to
Judge Archer with his tale of woe.
Judge Archer filed his complaint and
sent Chief Ralney after Polsall whom
he landed without much grief. The
young man stood trial and after list
ening to the testimony In the case,
Judge Archer found hlra guilty of
fighting and sentenced him to $3 and
costs worth of his celebrated brand
of Justice. Which lattter D. L. Amlck
stood security for and the young man
went on his road rejoicing.
Orange Tree Bears Fruit.
F. J. llennlngs and wife from near
Cedar Creek are In the city today
attending to business matters and
visiting with friends. Mr. llennlngs
Is responsible for the statement that
a small orange tree which Mrs. John
A. llennlngs owns is in bearing this
year, the first time. The tree stands
about three feet from the ground and
Is exactly like an orange tree of
the south. The one orange which it
is bearing this summer is about the
normal size and looks Just as an or
ange grow in tropic climes. It is a
remarkable curiosity and well worth
seeing and Mrs. llennlngs is quite
proud of it.
