YOUR NEBRASKA
The state department of agriculture
has issued a bulletin (No. 120) which
should be read by every Ncbraskan.
It is a brief summary of the weatlh
of Nebraska agriculture and contains
any number of facts which the loynl
Ncbraskan should have on the tip of
his tongue. For instance, every Nc-
brasknn should know that his state is
the greatest alfalfa producing slate
in the union. Not only is the alfalfa
acreage greater but no state produces
as much of it. For tho past five
years Nebraska has averaged nenrly
3,000,000 tons.
Loyal Xebraskans should also know
that as a corn state Nebraska ranks
third both in acreage and production.
During the period of 1017-1021, tho
Ncbraskan corn crop bns averaged
near 190,000,000 bu. and has an nver
nge valuation of $150,850,808. Al
' hough Ncbrnsk." is proudest of her
com production, her wheat pioduction
is not to bo scorned. This stale ranks
third in yield per acio and but four
states plant more wheat. Over one
hundred mills g.imi 1 1,000,000 bushels
of wheat annually. The value of tho
Nebraska wheat crop for tho last
three years has averaged $90,088,729
a year.
As in alfalfa, Nebraska ranks first
among tho states in production of prai
rie hay. Tlio.o are nearly two and 6nc
ha f million acres of lend in tho state
on which prarie hay grows. The
avciago j early production, for ;the
pas. fivo jea.s, had br-en 2375,700
tons, valued at 129,428,000.
The production of po ato s nnd
sugar 1 eet.i a' two item.! not to be
overlooked. The annual potato pro
duction, for past fivo years, has been
8,775,025 bu. This does not include
the 1922 yield, which has been one of
the biggest and most successful in
history. Tho average number of
acres devoted to potatoes, for the per
iod 1917 to 1921 was 103,525, valued
at $8,207,869. The value of the sugar
beet industry is about the same as
for potatoes, or, to be exact, $5,587,
000 yearly. There is only one other
state in the union that raises more
beets per acre than Nebraska. Ini
total acreage and production, the state
ranks fifth.
A very fortunate fact regarding the
crop production in Nebraska is that
a Jarge proportion of it is consumed
within the borders of the state. The
beef cattle and dairy interests, the,
hogs and chickens, use a very large
percentage of the grains grown here.
Almost equally important is the fact
that the catt'c are being constantly
improved in strain, there being 7-1,-174
pure-bred registered beef cattle
in Nebraska, according to the 1920
census. The dairy industry is grow
ing rapidly and to quote one para
graph from the department's bulletin:
"The dairy cow occupies an important
position in the production of Nebras
ka's wealth. Dairy animals kept on
80.470 farms produce milk and cre.m.
tq the, average of $30,000,000 annually
Sirice the cow 'furnishes 18 per cent of
th'e diet o'f the average American fanV
ilyl a large part is consumed in tho"
homes of the producers, but the markj
efed portion brings in a cash revenue
of $18,000,000 per year." It is inter-,
esting to note that the railroads of,
the state handle 12,000,000 gallons of
cream annually.
The 1920 census estimates the num
ber of hogs in Nebraska as throe and
one-half million with a total valuation
of $75,000,000. In case of porkers as
wcil as cattle, there is a steady in
cense in the number of pure bred
stock, theie now being some 112.502
herd, thus making tho state rank ffth
in pnulation of pure-bred swine.
When one icalizes that Nebraska
has an annual income of $35,000,000
from her chickens nnd eggs, one wH
lccognizc the fact that tho humble hen
has a place in tho sun. It is estimat
ed that 10,000,000 fowls are raised
every year and fully 50,000,000 dorcn
eggs produced.
It is tho knowledge of tho common
wealth's resources on tho farm which
makes loynl Nobraskans. People of
Nebraska should be proud of the fact
that the state ranks first in the union
in alfalfa and wild hay, that the state
ranks third in corn and fifth in wheat
nnd sugar boots. They should know
that Nebraska-grown potatoes are con
Ri'dered the finest ?oed potatoes for
use in the southern potato-growing
states.
To know those fac's atiout the pro
ducts of Nebraska so'l and to havo a
conception of tho unlimited fio'd of
possibilities jn stock raising, dairying,
hog nnd poultry rais'ng, inspires loyal
ty for tho state just as knowledge of
the nation's history inspires patriot
ic". The C. I). & Q. 11. H. has put a

A BRITISH ADVOCATE RANKS
W1LLA SIBBKT CAT1IER SECOND
Hugh Walpole, English literary ad
vocate, "who tells the truth about
American literature," nccording to the
last issue of the Literary Digest, calls
attention to Sinclair Lewis's contention
that England can no longer bo the
mother country to American literature
and says that for the first time the
latter has become "independent," re
marking: "Were I asked to mention the six
most prominent younger American
novelists definitely of this movement,
I should name Joseph Hergcslioimcr,
Wil'a Cathcr, Sinclair Lewis-, Sher
wood Ander.-on, Floyd Dell, and V.
Scott Fitzgerald, and if some one want
cd the names of six younger pools
I would give him Vachcll Lindsay,
Carl Sandburg, Robe-t Frost H. D.,'
Edgar Lee Masters, and Amy Lowell.
And if to these names we add tho
names of six modernist essayists and
critics Hey wood Broun, Waldo Frank
Don Marquis, Burton Rnscoe, W.
Hackott, and II. L. Mencken there
arc in these eighteen men and women
sufficient foice and strength to prove
admirably the truth of Mr. Sinclair
Lewis's contention.
"Take the six novelists T have men
tioned, and in their work what do
you find? What is thetc that is diffi
cult for the British public? Obvious
ly something, because only one of
them. Joopph Hergeshelmpr, ha" -c-cureil
n-iy sort of succes? bore.
"The accord most important novel
ist in this nw ll'erntu'.o 1 Willa
C'tthc-. This is a lady ho ha for
many 'ear- now been writing i.lmut
the Scandinavian ponuhitinim in t'io
heart of the Slates. 'My Anlon'a'
and 'O Pioneers' nrc both published in
England, and 'My Antonia' is one of
tho greatest novels in all American
literature. Read that work if you
read none other on this list thnt I
am giving you. Miss Cither's Eng
lish is beautiful, wonderful, her feel
ing for nature is exquisite; she is an
artist of the very first and finest or
der. "But not from her nnd nqt from
Hergesheimcr will you savor the l-eal
sharp tang of this American vision
and languge. You will get tho first
taste from Sinclair Lewis's 'Main
Street' (Hodder' and Stroughton)
That book has sold half a' million cbp
fes in the United States. It has sold
very few, I believe, in Great Britian."
"You must persevere with it. It is
very long. People talk through Its
pages in the most incredible language
tho new American tongue. It des
cribes the life of a smnll American
town that is in no sort of way like a
small English town the new Ameri
can town. But persevere. And when
you read it. read Sherwood Ander
son's 'Wincsburg, Ohio,' and when you
have finished that read Floyd Dell's
'Moon Calf.' Then if you are still
alive, turn back and consider Herge
sheimcr and Miss Oather again, and
you will know something about ho
new American fiction."
