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. Mark this
copy of your local paper and send
it to some eee in the east who
may be looking about for a new
location. Let us all work togeth-
er for the building up and develop-
ment of Nebraska.
.
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

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. Sold by
