Solid Train of
Wheat Shipped
From Nebraska
i _
Elevators in Good Shape to
Handle Grain and Plenty
of Cars Provided to Han
dle New Crop.
Wymore, Neb., July 25.—The first
solid train of new wheat, consisting
of <5 carloads, was handled through
the local Burlington yards Thursday
bound for the St. Joseph and Kansas
City markets. The grain was loaded
at stations between Wymore and Red
Cloud and between DeWitt and Ed
gar.
Threshing is now being done at a
lively rate at dozens of stations. The
railway sent a train of 85 empty box
cars from Lincoln by way of Crete
Thursday for the DeWltt-Edgar
Holdrege line, and another train of
86 cars was received at Crete this
morning for movement to Wymore,
and thence to the Red Cloud and Con
cordia lines. The loading is now
averaging three carloads a day from
most of these stations. Thursday
Reynolds & Bryan loaded six cars
each, and Ong and Shickley 10 each.
The price is advancing on wheat
at all southeastern Nebraska stations.
Elevators are in good shape to handle
the grain, and there is plenty of carB
to take care of It so far. Movement
of empty box cars has also started
west from Kansas City and St. Jo
seph to haul grain.
Aurora, Neb., July 25.—Columns of
smoke rising from 50 different places
in Hamilton county evidence thresh
ing operations now In full force. The
wheat crop of Hamilton county prom
isee better than the farmers ever an
ticipated. While the acreage Is
smaller than usual, it is thought that
the yield and the quality will exceed
that of any year since 1915. Reports
have reached the elevator* of some
yields as high as 43 bushels an acre.
The average yield reported on the
wheat which was planted late last
fall Is between 25 and 30 bushels an
acre. The wheat planted early Is
yielding less than 20 bushels an acre.
With new wheat selling at 11.03 a
bushel, much is being hauled directly
from the threshing machines to the
elevators.
Beatrice, Neb., July 25.—New
wheat is coming to the local markets
In large quantities, the price having
jumped to $1.06 a bushel. Two farm
ers of the Virginia vicinity, where
John Haveroamp received a yield of
53 bushels to the acre, report that
their wheat yielded 31 and 36 bushels
to ths acre.
North Platte, July 25.—About one
half of the wheat acreage In Lincoln
county has been cut. and where com
bines are In operation the wheat is
being hauled dlre-t from the field to
the elevators. The yield generally
is around 15 bushels, but some few
fields will produce double that quan
tity.
Corn Is tasseling out on waist high
stalks, the effect of cool and dry
weather. Farmers are hopeful that
with moisture and warmer nights a
normal crop of corn will be gathered.
