A very practical conservation move
ment has been undertaken by tho
Chicago, Partington and Qitluej Hull
road by inducing farmers along its
right of way to cultivate tho railroad's
land adjoining their farms. Over Coo
country dwellers took advantugo of
this plan last year, paying the nomi
nal fee of $.", which entitles thorn to
utilize tlie land adjoining theirs for an
indefinite period, Tins soil, which is
usually very rich because- so long un
titled, Is planted to alfalfa and the
yield has been as high as eight tons to
tlie acre. The aveiago amount of land
which each man cultivates Is three
acres. The arrangement lessens tlie
weed menace for ttio near-by Holds
and, since alfalfa remains green a long
time, It lessons tho danger of prairie
tires. At the same time the road is
saved tho cost of mowing the right of
way.

Gloomy Prospects for Wheat
The following figures give the per
('outage yf Winter Wheat repotted
dead it: ouch County as reported by
the Nebraska State Hoard of Agticul
tine. Most of this vast acreage will
be planted to corn, with some to oats,
and tho rest to spring wheat whero
seed wns available. Wo would like at
tliK time to call the attention of tlie
Nebraska farmers to the fact that In
l'.il.'i there were nearly Two Million
acres put to winter wheat in twenty
seven counties south of the Platte t Ivor.
eaa of tho west lino of Phelps and
Harlan county, and probably more
than that last fall. To again seed this
vast acreage it will take well over two
n illioti bushels tills fall, and wo advice
the farmers who have last year's crop,
or a portion thereof, on hand, to keep
tlie same until it 1m a known fact that
your neighbors have their seed for this
fall. Save Nebraska's 1018 wheat crop
by making sure that wo have seed.
