As late as 1858, the North American Review spoke of the territory west of Omaha as a “vast desert which can be crossed, if at all, with camels.” But as a desert, Nebraska has not been much of a success. Today the average annual value of the crops from the state’s fertile fields, exceeds $400,000,000, not to mention the state's 1 factory output of more than $600,000,000. Nebraska is growing steadily and requires more and more local and long distance telephone service. At the present rate of Nebraska's growth, we must spend about three-fourths of a million dollars annually for new telephone facilities in this state. In order to provide for the growing demands for telephone service, vast sums of money must be constantly obtained from investors. Nearly half a million people already own Bell System stock or bonds. We shall be pleased to have you, also, as an investor in the business. Any telephone employee will gladly give you full information about Bell stock or bonds, or call our Manager. I As Nebraska prospers, the telephone is suc cessful. Therefore, we constantly strive to pro vide reliable telephone service at the lowest possible charges consistent with reasonable wages to employees and a fair return on the money in vested in the business.
