Nebraska Is also becoming a potato state.
Not much Importance has been hitherto at
tached to this feature of the farmer's routine
of crops , but the yield of this year Is an eye-
opener , as Incllcatlns the possibilities In this
line when an effort Is made to raise more
potatoes than are needed for homo consump
tion. In the table below will be found re
ports from forty-four counties , showing
acreage , average yield and total yield. In
order to arrive at the total the average acre
age of the counties was multiplied by the
average yield , and this by the number of
count Ira. This gives a fair estimate for
the counties that did not report fully. To
this has been added returns from two coun-
tlos In which the acreage of last year -ws
multiplied by the average yield of 1897.
This gives a total of 8,045,802 bushels of po
tatoes as Nebraska's yield for 1897. If this
crop had been sold In Omaha yesterday at
the average prlco prevailing It would have
netted $4,425,191.10. Not a bad return from
a elilo crop. Following is the table giving

'Flax as a crop has been nearly abandoned
by the Nebraska farmers. It Is owlns to
the difficulties In. reaching a market , however ,
rather than to the uncertain return of the
crops. The revival of the linseed oil busi
ness In Omaha will renew the market for
the farmer , and another year will very likely
see the average of flax Increased. Thirty-one
counties are Included In the table below.
Sixteen' of these had an average acerago of
C90.5 , with an average yield of O.G8 bushels.
This , with two counties estimated on the
basis of this year's yield and last year's
acreage gives a total of 230,616 bushels of
flax seed , worth $223,726,62 onthe Chicago
market. This table shows where the flax is

The story of the sugar beet and chicory
crops is soon told. The yield of sugar beets
Is very largo for the acreage ; that of chicory
rather small. The sugar factory people cs-
tlmato the yieldat / 50,000 tons for the Nor
folk district and 45,000 tons for the Grand
Island district , Jlr. C. Devan Oldlleld of the
American Chicory company estimates the
yield of chicoryroot at about 5,500 tons.
Chicory root brings the farmer $7.50 per ton
and sugar b-ipfs $3.50. The returns gathered

Nebraska's old cow may never attain a
place In history as did Mrs. Lcary's , but
her quiet , unobtrusive attention to her
family affairs entitles her to far more con
sideration than that arising from the kick
that swept Chicago with fktmc. For , while
the Lcary cow attained her niche by bring
ing about the destruction ot some millions
ot dollars worth of properly , Nebraska's
cow finds her destiny rounded out In
modestly adding some millions of dollars
each year to the material wealth of the
state , at tlio same time furnishing forth the
most delicious of butter and cheese with

The apple crop of Nebraska Is going Io
bo something of n disappointment. The
prospects during the summer wcro lhat the
crop would bo ono of the largest over raised
In the slnte , and the quality very superior.
Hut the warm and dry weather during the
last six weeks tins had a dhistrotis effect
upon the apples , especially as to their qual
ity. The ground In the heaviest orchards
has been covered wllh windfalls , which Indi
cates a lack of vitality In the fruit , nnd
makes Its keeping qualities uncertain. The
owners of these orchards have gathered up
these apples and sold them for cooking pur
poses , but the Influences which affected
them to the extent to cause them to drop
from the trees is said to bo very apt to
attect them as desirable to barrel to ship or
otorc. The worms have Also done consider
able damage to the crop , injuring the ap-
pcaranco of the fruit and damaging Its keep
ing qualities.
Oroat quantities ot other trulls have been
disposed of during the summer , but there

milk that must bo experienced to be
appreciated. Mr. D. P. 'Ashburn ' of Gibbon ,
the secretary of the National Dairymen's as
sociation , says of this noble animal and her
work :
"The dairy Interests of Nebraska have
reached large proportions and are rapidly
Increasing. There arc over 600,000 coivs In
the state used for dairy purposes and the
number Is annually increasing. They are
In sharp demand at good prices.
"Farmers are coming to realize that there
Is no farm animal that would convert what
would otherwise be waste products into
money so surely and quickly as the dairy
cow , and the cream separator and the
creameries , which are numerous In the
state and increasing In numbers , relieve
the family of the labor ot butter-making , as
well as the care of the milk and uteoslls
that were a necessity under the old methods.
There are many dairies In the state stocked
with pure bred dairy stock , principally
throughout the state are using every avail
able means to Improve their dairy stock.
There are a few dairies In the state tliat
yield an average of 300 pounds of butter
per cow annually. Some phenomenal COWB
yield considerably more , but the great num
ber are far below that amount , and It Is
perhaps a fair estimate to place the average
yield of the cows of the state at 110 pounds
of butter annually , or Its cqulvllent In other
dairy products. Thus , the 600,000 cows
would produce annually 66,000,000 pounds ot
butter or Its equivalent , one-half of which
Is consumed at home and the remainder
finds Its way to the various markets of the
country.
"Of the 33,000,000 pounds marketed ono-
is no basis for a calculation or a starting
point for even a close guess at Its value.
It may be said , within reason , tint the crop
of early fruit was the largest over gathered
In Nebraska , cherries , plums and all berries
yicldlnit more plentifully than ever before.
Grapes gave a tremendous yield , as did
peaches , but there is absolutely no means of
getting at the extent or value of the country.
Commission men in this city ? ay the potato
tate crop Is larger and better than was sup
posed. Ono commission man says ho bellovcB
the crop to be larger than for several years ,
but that the better quality is In those cul
tivated In the western part of the state.
These raised on Irrigated lands are said to
bo particularly good , and the yield very
large. The yield shown by the counties In
cluded In the tables proves this beyond a
doubt. There are too many potatoes In the
western states Io warrant a very high price ,
and the Indications are that potatoes will
bo cheap all winter , with large shipments
from oul.s-lde the state.
An Industry , however , which has been
more extensive In Its operations than ever
before In this city Is that ot market garden-
Ing. It Is difficult to reach any estimate
of the value of the garden truck sold on the
open market In this city during the past
summer , but everybody connected with the
market says It has been much larger than
ever before , while the prices have been gen
erally low. Thcro have been more pardoners
on the market than usual , and It Is esti
mated that fully one-half of them como over
from Iowa , The yield of garden products
has been unusually large this year and the
Increase in the supply offered has forced
down the prices paid. Yet there has been

ialf Is private dairy and Iho other half cream-
ry butter. The former brings an average
f 10 cents per pound and the latter 1C
onts. making an annual Income to the state
f $4,290,000 , with an equal amount con-
limed at homo , making the annual yield of
ho daltlci' of the state In finished product
8D80,000. Wo ebould add 10 per cent to this
or the value of by-products and we have
he aggregate Income of $9,438,000 ,
"While the above averages of yield and
trices may seem low to those not familiar
vlth the subject , yet they are as high as
can truthfully be given for any state In the
nlon , Nebraska , like all other states , has
nony private dairymen who do not glvo the
line and attention to this branch of this
jualnesa necessary to obtain good results and
heir poor yield and prices cut down tbo
encral aveiage. Hut this U no fault ot the
atural resources of the state for dairy our-
oses. The urcat fertility of the soil and
onscquent abundance of food for cows , the
ever falling supply of pure cold water and
be pure air and mild climate enables the
iractlcal dairyman to produce fine butter In
argo quantities at leas cost , and the mar
cels , both east and west , with our good rail-
oad facilities , enables him to sell et a far
little complaint among the gardeners , and
as a whole they have had a fairly micccRsful
season , the Increased sales inrtlally making
up for the decreased price ,
Nebraska has never been reckoned In the
list of fruit growing states , but the success
of the last season In every line but apples
has greatly encouraged horticulturists , and
another year will BOO more extensive efforts
at the production ot fruit for tbo market.
With tliu growth of the Industry will come
better methods for handling It , and more
united and concerted effort on the part of
those engaged In It will make the gathering
of statistics concerning the fruit crop nt
Nebraska In another year more certain of
results. The Ileo regrets Us Inability to
give more than these vague general facts ,
but more detailed Information cannot bo
