Experiments in the Culture of the Sugar
Beet in Nebraska
The cooperative sugar beet experi
mental work upon the farm of the Stan
dard Cattle Company at Ames Nebr
during the season of 1902 was in part a
continuation of previous work where
conclusive results had not been obtain
ed and in part a test of methods of cul
ture and combating disease that had
not previously been under investigation
All the work was laid out with a view to
solving problems in which the farmer or
beet grower was particularly interested
As in previous years the liberality of
the Cattle Company made it possible to
carry on the work on an extensive scale
and over 200 acres of selected land was
used for the experiments Most of the
work was conducted upon what would
commonly be termed a deep friable
loam very uniform in physical character
and fertility This almost absolute uni
formity of the soil upon the fields made
it possible to use very much larger plats
than would ordinarily be admissible
without danger of varying the condi
tions
In a test of twenty odd varieties of
sugar beets the results from home
grown seed compared very favorably
with those from the imported seed
which showed quite wide variations
The difference in this as well as in for
mer tests seems to indicate that the
quality of the seed is more important
than the variety
An application of farmyard manure of
22 tons per acre seemed to have no effect
upon the quality of the sugar beets nor
but in the latter
upon the yield per acre
ter respect this years results differ from
those of previous years
The use of salt as a fertilizer if it had

any effect improved the quality of the
beets produced but had no effect upon
the susceptibility to disease
A comparison of early and late plant
ing of sugar beets was decidedly in
favor of early planting
A comparison of different depths of
horse cultivation of sugar beets was in
favor of rather deep cultivation It
should be remembered however that
the season of 1902 was much wetter and
cooler than normal Experiments in
previous years favored cultivation about
three inches deep
The yield of sugar beets was very con
siderably increased by deep hand hoeing
when the beets were four to five inches
high
The presence of weeds in sugar beet
fields very materially decreased the
yield and sugar content of the beets
Breaking off a part of the leaves of
sugar beets at laying by time did not
injuriously affect the yield or quality of
the crop Beets treated in this way
were less affected by leaf spot disease
than those not so treated
Continuing the cultivation of sugar
beets after the leaves were full grown
considerably increased the yield per
acre T L Lyon

Orleans St Francis Branch
Speciul to McCook Tribune
The Orleans St Francis branch is
today enjoying tho prosperity resulting
from tho proceeds of a record breaker
wheat crop Tho large acreage of heavi
ly yielding wheat fields of superior qual
ity has surpassed the estimates of tho
most sanguine The realization of tho
wealth of this product of tho branch and
the number of car loads of golden cereal
is not in the capacity of the mind to di
gest Every elevator on tho line is
overflowing farmers are storing the
grain at their farms trains loaded to
the maximum of tho Hills standard of
tonnage daily side tracks at stations
asking for empty cars numerous thresh
ers increasing the output hourly aro
some of the facts to appreciate when
tho magnitude of Orleans St Francis
wheat crop- is recorded Grain repre
sentatives from St Louis Kansas City
and other points are soliciting consign
ments for their houses for wheat which
for quality and grade is not surpassed
in tho United States
St Francis McDonald Bird City and
Blakeman thatonco were the butt of ridi
icule have today a wheat crop that so far
distances Eastern Nebraska and Kansas
that they aro outclassed not even in the
race Wheat has tested G2 pounds to a
bushel at St Francis with an yiold of
39 bushels per acre Rawlins county
with Atwood Herndon Ludell Mc
Donald and Blakeman will far exceed
the 91 92 year in car loads of wheat
Tho Burlington is unable to fill the
orders for empty cars at the elevators
One day thero were 81 calls for cars for
loading of wheat on the brauch and
there is not the least doubt if cars could
be had enough cars could bo loaded
from the 27 elevators on the branch to
load 3 wheat trains daily Threshers
have been coming on every train ono to
three daily since the 1st of July and the
date this was written one was on a flat
car bound for the territory where ma
chines aro in demand One farmer
northwest of Blakeman has 20000 bush
els of wheat Many wheat growers
have fortunes in golden grain The
crop of wheat this year has paid for the
purchase price of farms besides tho ex
penses of seeding harvesting and thresh
ing of crop Many instances there are
where the yield of wheat is so large that
15 per acre is realized making enough
to pay for the land and funds to live on
for a family until the next crop is raised
for instance a field of wheat near
Herndon yielded the last two years 91
bushels per acre averaging 456 bushels
per acre at50 cents per bushel realizing
2775 per acre 2 years in succession
Where in Nebraska or Kansaseast of tho
100th meridian can equal this here is
some thing to think over when making
comparisons If cars could be furnish
ed and farmers get their cash for this
immense crop of wheat the money in
circulation and in banks would make
this branch an Eldorado
The corn crop has kept pace with
the wheat and Herndon east will pro
duce a heavy yield it is fast maturing
and many fields will produce 50 bushels
per acre Every instance where the
land is clean and average early the ears
are large good stand far surpassing any
corn prospect in the history of this
branch No corn will have to be ship
ped at least east of Herndon The
granaries will be filled with the king of
grain in Furnas Harlan Red Willow
counties Nebraska and Decatur coun
ty Kansas with corn wheat par ex
cellence and 3 crops of alfalfa Every
town enjoying unparalleled prosperity
and the railroad taxed to its utmost to
handle products and merchandise is the
record of 1903
A Remarkable Record
Chamberlains Cough Remedy has a
remarkable record It has been in use
for over thirty years during which time
many million bottles have been sold and
used It has long been the standard
and main reliance in the treatment of
croup in thousands of homes yet during
all this time no case has ever been re
ported to the manufacturer in which it
railed to enect a cure vvnen given as
soon as the child becomes hoarse or even
as soon as the croupy cough appears it
will prevent the attack It is pleasaut
to take many children like it It con
tains no opium or other harmful sub
stance and may be given as confidently
to a baby as to an adult For sale by
