Secretary Wilson advises Nebraska
farmers to raise canaigre a plant used
in tanning hides The soil of the state
is suited to it and when the plant is
raised some enterprising men should
proceed to use it on the hides from
South Omahas packing houses There
is no reason why this should not be one
of the largest tanning centers in the
world Omaha Bee
The east whenever the question of
irrigation enterprises has been up in
congress has always fought favorable
action The representatives of that sec
tion have always held that if the west
wanted to irrigate it should not look
to the government for any assistance
it was all the government could do to
improve eastern harbors The pro
tracted drouth in certain sections this
year has opened the eyes of the east
to the fact that the raising of a crop
in the west is of as much conse
quence to the east as to the west It is
to be hoped the lesson may be effective
in rendering eastern congressmen more
reasonable in the future Omaha Bee
Conditions in Southwestern Nebras
ka it seems to The Tribune are not
such as to call forth mirth or to develop
and encourage facetice but call for good
hard thinking and the exercise of all the
reserve nerve and judgment left in the
sturdy people of this section The ques
tion of sustaining life and preserving
values and maintaining the integrity of
this land through the winter and until
the opportunity of another crop shall
come to fruition is not a problem for a
fiddling Nero or a buffoon The situa
tion is grave enough to demand the
most careful consideration and the most
patriotic action of all interested in main
taining the status of affairs in South
western Nebraska Stand to the rack or
give way to others
