McKELVIE TELLS
BEET BODY PLAN
Washington, Aug. 8. Samuel II
McKelvie, federal farm board mem
ber, Friday said there was an "abund
ant opportunity" to expand produc
tion of sugar beets without creating
a surplus.
He outlined the purposes of the
recently organized National Beet
Growers association and said it plan
ned to co-operate with the manufac
turer.
McKelvie said the recognition of
sugar beets as a commodity by the
farm board would help in carrying
out the agricultural marketing act.
Several factors contributed to the
sweeping Conservative victory over
the Liberal Government in Canada

TWO GREAT NEBRASKA CROPS
HEADING FOE THE FINISH
Battling valiantly with high tem
perature and short rainfall, the 1930
Nebraska corn crop is now on the
back stretch, straining for the finish.
Thanks to what at the time was con
sidered a severe handicap a late
Btart most of the corn has stood
the terrific July heat with good ac
count, drawing- reserve moisture
from a subsoil that was well eoaked
with winter snow and fall sod spring
rains. Recent rains of sufficient
amount in coma parts of the state
have praetieaUy assured a good crop,
while iE ether sections damage has
been done by the excessive heat.
is a seasonable truth in Nebraska
that the crop is generally better than
the pessimists prophesied it would
be. It may be taken as assured that
there will be plenty of corn grown to
maturity in Nebraska in the good
year 1930.
The pictures above show a Nebras
ka corn field and a Nebraska sweet
clover field. The sweet clover picture
was taken near Hastings and pictures
a crop that has a phenomenal popu
larity in this state. A few years ago
a little sweet clover was seen along
the roadsides. Now it has reached
the dignity of a major crop. At the
present Jine ther are 1,126,000 acres
of Nebraska land in sweet clover,
It J 800,000 acres growing alne and
.826,000 acres being grown among
pmall grain ?rops such - as winter
wheat, barley and oats. After the
grain is harvested the sweet clover
grows and produces a splendid fall
pasture or hay or seed crop. ,
Sweet clover is Nebraska's great
est soil building crop. Some farmers
plow it up in the spring of the fol
lowing year as a green manure crop!
As a pasture crop it la most success
ful. It is an invaluable aid to dairy
ing. Its popularity is attested by
the fact that Nebraska has more
acres sowed to sweet clover this year
than alfalfa, which is a remarkable
fact when it is recalled that Ne
braska is first state in. alfalfa acreage
and second in alfalfa production.
