In thc month of June , the Broken - ken Bow Dairy Association shipped - ped to the Bcatrice Crcamcry Co. 170 cans of cream , containing 13,600 pounds of cream , or 5)3 ( , pounds of hutter fat , for which was paid to the farmcrs $1,014.- 4S.

Onc of the grcat clemcnts from which thc pcople of Custer wun t.y wi 11 cIcri vc an cnormous income this ) 'ear , if present prospects - pects do not fail us is her cult i- \'atcd land. 'I'he assesorsreports from 23 of the 5 townships of the county givc the number of acres in cultivation in the county 289,553. 'I'his docs not include the townships of Cliff and Gar- ficld. Of this acreage in cultivation - tion lS,153 acres are in corn , 5,997 in wheat , : 9. 71 in rye , 23,775 acrcs in oats , 3,4SJ in barley and 1,285 acres of potatocs'rids lc\\'es : about 9000 acres that reports docs not show to what they are planted. Bnt with a little Jignring- and by cstimating thc yield of corn , wheat , oats , rye , baric ) ' and potatoes , prescnt prospects , oIt . - presents an encouragi ng out-look. I ! ' ; timating the yicld of corn at an averagc of o bushcls to the acre , it g'es 5,5H4.5110 bush cIs. li'igure the corn worth enl ) ' 25 ccnts a bushel ( allll it will he worth douhle that to fecIl to caUll' ami hogs ) and it is worth $1,3- 147.50. 'I\he 2S'J7 acres of wheat will , without doubt , a\'erag'e IS bushels - els to the acrc , as a g-rea l deal of it will , caisly double that. 'I'his will give -lrI7H7 ( , bushels , which , at SOc a hushel , would he worth , ) . Calcnlating' upon the saltH' l'onser\'a t'c basis for thc ) ' " oats , barlcy and potato crop it makes thc value of the crop S2,2H3,8cJ1. , It is to be rcmcmbered in this ! conltection that thcsc calculations are baised only on land in cuIti- , vation in 3 of the 25 townships. ' 1'0 this estimate fully one sixth should be a ded for CIiIT and Garfield townships , which would make about $380,648 morc. 'I'his cnormous sum is equal to $133 for every man , woman and child in the connty. In connce tion with the crops ' arc the dairy procluct , thc pork , beef , ponltry , eggs , and garden products which are not estimat- cd. ' 1'he stock industry is OfH' of the principlc industries of our county. Take thc profits deriv- cd from our cattl , hogs , etc. , and add to thc vdue : of our crops and the procceds would reach full fonr millions this year. It is bccause of thesc conli- tions that we have sccn our pco- pIe in five years emcrge from a tatc of ' to thc bankrupts ) position - tion of competancj' . In cver locali ty in the coun t j' farmers are getting in good shape tinaneiallYi most of them arc out of dcbt. Ncarly all ha\'c a'l > unch of stock cattle and arc selling cream from 5 to 5 cows that costs them nothing but thc labor of milking. 'l'hey have the grass wasting on which their stock feed. 'We know of nowhere that the opportunitics arc otierec1 to the poor man to gct a start t1 a t is now open to him in Custer c9unty. , 'rhere is ) 'ct thousands of acrcs of pasture land that can be bought cheap and on easy terms.
