Some Facts About Ne = braska. s Here are some concrete facts i about Nebraska that should be made known to all men : The extreme length of Nebraska , east and west , is 415 miles ; the I exDreme breath , north and south is 205 miles. The gross afea of Nebraska in square miles is 77,510. The gross acreage is 49606400. The cultivated acreage in 1909 was approximately 16,000.000 acres , or Jess than one-third the total area of the state. On this 16,000,000 acres there was produced in 1909 the follow- . . ing crops : Corn , 169,179,137 bushels ; market value 98123871. Wheat50,313,600 bushels ; market value 45642234. . . Oats , 59,653,479 bushels ; market value 23861389. Barley , 2,820,632 bushels ; mark- et value 1269277. . Rye , 1,227,332 bushels ; market value 786,399 Alfalfa , 1,971,770 tons ; market value 17,745,930. Tame hay , 2,647,839 tons ; market value 21182712. Potatoes , 7,386,497 bushels ; market value 5909202. . No account is made of miscel- laneous crops , such as speltz , mil- let " sorghum cane , sugar beets , kaffir corn , onions , general garden truck , etc. , which would add many millions more to the total produc I tion. _ tion.Less Less than one-half of the acro.- aje that may profitably be culti I i vated in Nebraska is being culti- vated at the present time. . From , the pasture lands and the grain feed raised in Nebraska was produced 35,000,000 worth of butter , § 18,000,000 worth of eggs , and 40,000,000 worth of poultry. From the pastures and grain fields Nebraska produced and shipped to market 1,118,518 beef cattle , 2,807,502 head of hogs , 76,274 horses and mules , and 554- 505 sheep. The total value of the surplus shipments of live stock exceeded 120000000. . The total products of Nebraska in 1909-agricultural , live stock , dairying , manufacturing , etc. , ex- ceeded $60,000OOO-an average of approximately § 600 for each man , woman and child. No other state in the union made such a showing. . Dairy farming in Nebraska is in its infancy , yet : Nebraska is today one of the leading producers of dairy products and is . forging ahead by leaps and bounds. The , iiducements offered to dairy I farmers by Nebraska are beyond computation. Taking into consideration fer- tility of soil , healthfulness of cli- mate , access to market and sur- rounding creature comforts and I advantages land in Nebraska , im proved and unimproved , is to be had more cheaply and on better terms than anywhere else in the republic. Fifteen million acres of fertile land await the activity of husbandmen. Nebraska with a population of less than a million and a half produces more than is produced and purchased by Japan . , a nation of 32,000,000 people. : Nebraska offers greater in uce- ments to homeseekers than any other state in the union-greater than any other similar area in the whole wide world.

The Temperance Union of braska J ! Is ( composed of old-time , dyed-in-the- wool nrohibitionists , as distinguished from the imported brood of profession- al agitators who come into Nebraska to beat the county-option tom-tom , re gardless of the fact that Nebraska has had a county-option law since 1881. The Temperance Union is opposed to county-option because the term con- templates license , and when they are confidentially assured that no license is possible under the county-option scheme , they still back off because of the attempted deception ; and yet a layman who will not subscribe to this plan of .false pretense on the part of the Anti-Saloon League is classified by its claquers as an agent of the rum power. - . . . . ' . ' " " . _ o' i , ' . : . " . ; .t < - . - , " ' ' . . . - - - - - I . , . . . From the eleventh census , we find the average wages paid in Maine to he $350 a year ; in Kansas , $497. Com pare these figures with the average : in Massachusetts of $494 , and in Ne braska of $545. All of the Nebraska dry territory boasted of by the Anti-Saloon League was achieved under the operation of the old Slocumb law. The provisions of that law make it easy to decree every acre of Nebraska territory dry If the people will it. - " South Dakota , a license state , has one prisoner to every 1,122 of popula tion ; while North Dakota , a prohibi- tion state , has one prisoner to every 763 of population , a showing largely in favor of the license state-the fig- ures being taken from government re ports. * Ch'ief of Police Harmon , of Bidde ford , Maine : , testifying in a case in the municipal court , denounced the pro- hibitory law. He has been at the head of the police force of Biddeford for many years. He said : "The Maine prohibitory law has made more liars and perjurors than all other laws on the statute books combined. " . . - - - - State Treasurer W. D. Seed of Ala- bama says that it has been neces sary to borrow $50,000 to meet Oc tober (1909) ( ) school warrants , for which treasurer's checks have just been issued. The state treasurer be- lieves the taxes coming in , with the unused portion of the sum borrowed , will tide the treasury over the first of the year without further borrowing. During the year 1908 tnere were 123 commercial failures in Maine , with liabilities of $660,584 , whereas in Ne- braska that year there were but 39 commercial failures , with liabilities of $245,264. That is to say , with a popu- lation one-third less than that of Ne- braska , Maine's losses in commercial failures were nearly three times the amount of the Nebraska losses. The Secretary of the Maine Civic League has compiled statistics giving the number of arrests for drunkenness in twenty-five of the largest cities and towns of Maine during the past thir- teen years. These statistics show an increase in the drunk arrests from about 6,600 to' 9,627 in 1908 , an in- crease of 45 per cent compared with an increase of about 14 per cent in population. Prohibitionists club many men into their ranks by alleging everywhere : that any man who refuses to line up with them is ipso facto a lusher , and a warm supporter of the liquor inter- ests. By this means they have "buf- - faloed" some of the voters of Lin coIn ; whereas the truth of the mat- ter is that nine-tenths of the men who Dppose prohibition favor any true measure of temperance. Prohibitionists constantly harp upon the iniquity of the Federal government In issuing liquor licenses to men re siding in dry territory. They do not know that Congress in 1866 enacted a law-which is section 3243 , Revised Statutes-expressly providing that the payment of revenue tax by liquor deal ers "shall not be held to exempt any person from any penalty or punish- ment provided by the laws of any state for carrying on the liquor traf fic within such state. " When the digestion is all right , the action of the bowels regular , there is a natural craving and relish for food. When this is lacking you may know that you need a dose of Chamberlain's Stom- , ach and Liver Tablets. They strengthen the digestive organs , improve the appe- tite and regulate the bowels.
