This development and settlement of tho
west has In it no element of boom. It has
teen taken up by the railroads and Is being
responded to by tho homeseekers pritnarily
because, of tho existence of prosperous times,
uncqualcd for n number of yenrs. Ily
vlrtuo of growing busln and increasing
earnings tho railroads aro now enabled to
pay more attention to tho question of emi
gration. Their departments for tho dls
ki ruination of Information lelatlve to west
err lands havo btcn enlarged and numerous
land nnd emigration ageuth are now em
ployed In traveling throughout tho mid-west
ami eastern stntes dilating in glowing terms
upon the opportunities ready and waiting
In Nebraski and other western stated. The
enterprising, nmbitlous agriculturist of tho
east Is In n particularly roceptlvo mood be
rr.uso he, too, has been touched by the
niagle wand of tho god Prosperity. He has
money avallablo for lnvcutinent. The east
does not offer the opportunity that ho re
alizes Is po.'slhle In the west, nnd benco ho
sciks out that sectloa whom tho greatest
dlvldonds will be likely to attend tho In
vestment of his capital.
In consideration of the efforts that are
new being conducted by the Omaha rail
roads to Incrroso tho population ot tho west
It Is ot passing Importance that tho rail
roads aro not bending their energies toward
tho disposition of lands owned by them
The Union Pacific Is tho only railroad com
pany that owns any considerable nrea of
western land and In Its efforts to gain new
settlers thn salo of Its own lands l al
together subordinated to tho main Issue
Increased population of the lands through
vd.lch tho Omaha railroads operate. Con-Fi-qitontly
It can readily bo appreciated that
tho railroads aro not Indulging in a venture
some, speculative undertaking. To the pros
pective settler who seeks Information, the
location and price of available lands nre
given by the railroads, but boyond this
their Interest In tho sale of tho lands Is
minimized.

"Since tho Burlington land grants havo
dwindled so that but little land Is now
owned by the railroad company tho passen
ger department has had entire supervision
of tho work of fostering emlgialion," said
Oeneral Passenger Agent Francis. "Wo aro
making no effort to dispose of any particular
land. Our work is to get the people located
in the west and It makes no difference to us
whoso lands they buy. The states from
which homeseekers como aro principally
Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illi
nois, Indiana and Ohio and our work of
fostering emigration Is largely confined to
those states.
l'nelurM In AVcKteru RnilKrntlmi.
"Thero nre two or threo factors which
promote .the spirit of western omlgratlon.
Take, for Inntnnce, tho case of a man who
owns a farm of 1C0 ncres In Illinois. He
has a family of grown-up sons, who are
desirous of becoming land-ownors nnd Agri
culturists. Tho father Is unable to pur
chai.o each of his sons a farm at the prices
prevailing for farm lands In Illinois. He
sides, the young men havo a certain wplrlt
of adventure and are anxious to try their
fortune In the west. So tho father disposes
of his Illinois farm, comet) west with pcr
hars $10,000 In cash, buyn each of his sons
nnd himself a quarter section of western land
for tho prlco that a single farm of corre
sponding slzo In tho east would bring.
"Another class frrm which many western
homescekern nro recruited Ih tho renters.
They can't get enough money to acqulro
their own property In tho oast nnd continue
year after year to pay cash rontal. Above
all things they dcalro to own n farm, to
they como to Nebraska and purchaso a
piece ot land, tho llrst payment not ex
ceeding the rent they formerly paid In a
single year. In a short tlmo tho now home
l.i freed from encumbrance and tho former
rcntor Is a land-owner.
"Then there la tho eastern farmer, who
In order to get a crop must fertilize exten
sively.. In ,ertaln sections of Indiana and
Ohio the farmer has to fortlllzo more or
Icfs nnd It cosIh as much for tho fertilizer
necessary to ralso a good crop as It would
take to buy a western farm. Tho farmer
flgurca over theso things, consldorn that
his land is practically worthless unless fer
tilized and decides to utrlko out for tho
west, where such an expedient Is unneces
sary. ''Tho majority of the emigrants havo
money. In most cases this either represents
tho saving and accumulation of a fow years
or elso tho proceeds from tho salo of tholr i
eastern property. Tho Ilurllngton dlrccu tho
principal portion of this travel to Nebraska
and Kansas In tho rain belt. There Is good
land, cheap In prlco, In abundance and It Is
capable of cultivation under conditions used
In fanning the world over.
"Irrigated lands aro more expensive And,
too, tho eastern farmer does not take to this
clues ot farming naturally until bo has bad
oxprrlencc. About 10 or 15 per cent oft
tho homeseekers go Into thb live stock!
business. To tho man who desires to ralso
cattle or sheep wo recommend tho purchaso
of land In western Nebraska, Wyoming and

with greater favor than ever 'before. Tho
tide of emigration Is In operation -when the
eastern farmer Is at leisure. After his
! crop Is in, along about June, ho Is nble
to travel In search of n more desirable lo-
cation than ho has. After his return home,
j whon ho harvests his wheat and small grain
j nnd has his corn laid by, ho Is ready to
i start out nnd mako nrrnngnments to settle
in tho location he has selected, In tho Into
winter or early spring. That Is the season
of tho year when tho new settler becomes
a bona fldo resident. Tho period of In
vestigation Is now ubout here and I an
ticipate that the number of honussekcrs
who will visit Nebraaka and other trans
mlssourl states during tho next two months
will be larger than over befor."
Wlint the Union I'nelllc Can Offer.
Extending as it does half-way across tho
continent from tho banks ot tbo Missouri

For tho farmer thero nro yet thousands
of acres ot rich agricultural lands open for

For many yenrB tho Union Pacific Hall-j

regions of tho east. Tho entlro west Is now
reaping the harvest and tho Union PacllU
Is receiving Its proportional benefit. From

Tho Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Vnlley
railroad has not been behind Its cranpotltnrs
In promoting emigration to Nebraska and
contiguous states. Its main lino nenetrates
tho northern half of tho stato and continues,'
into the heart of Wyoming nnd to the rich
mineral fields and cattle sections of South '
Dakota. Major J. It, Iluchanan, generul pas-'
scnger agent of this road, has long been I
optimistic concerning the future of the 1
transmlbsourl region nnd has accomplished
much toward tho settlement of the sections
penetrated by tho railroad ho represents.
, "Slnco tho early days when 'Frio Ilomr'

acres, era offered to tho scitler of Ntbraska
thero has never been n more favorable i p
portunlty or outlook than tho prismt 'oi
prospective Bottlers," says Major IluiiMiian.
"Thero nro speculators and advontunrs who
arn eager to tako chanres in all prnsj.ee h
which havo a show of promise of gain.
Thoso peoplo camo to Nebraska In ear.y
days, endured tho hardships and made great
winnings. They nre today tho wealthy, re
sponsible nnd leading citizens of tho state.
"Thero Is another largo class nf peoplo
who prefer to wall until the experimental

braska has parsed the experimental stage
and now promlsas splendid returns lo tho In

fifteen years ago there were not fifteen hun
dred. The nower country went of Hi H
county Is divided between farming and
Hock growing. That section has splendid
sol, plenty of small streams In addition to
the considerable streams of Long line and
the Niobrara rivers; but tho rainfall Is
hardly sufficient In warrant reliable crop
raising ami so the country Is mainly de
voted to stock raising and dairying. For tho
farmer or tho crop raiser the eastern one-
third of Nebraska has no rtinl. For the
dairyman and stock raiser the northwestern
portion of the stntiv, along and adjacent to
the lino of the Fremont, Elkhorn Mlssouil

"What Is the Elkhorn doing to promote
emigration? It Is publishing and distribut
ing, monthly and sonietlmej oflener a
'guide' which gives some statistical figured
of the products of tho stole. It gives th"
population of towns, the hurlncvb Intercuts
of the towns, the prices of hinds In different
sections along tho line. It Is showing what
different liitorrMs pimper nnd nffeis Induce
ments to Immigration. It joins nil rands In
making cheap homeieelicrs' rates lo tis
stnte. and along Its line of road at frequent
Intervals. It Is not striving lo gel 'any
body' lo come, but Is encouraging emigra
tion from a good clnrs of thrifty, industrious
peoplo, who will surely succeed with Hie op
portunities here offered. We think that with
Nebraska producing two hundred to two
hundred nnd fifty millions of bushels of
corn, thirty lo fifty million bushels of wheat,
with shipments of over J7fi.000.000 worth of
stock per year, with an ascending m;kut,
nn Increasing demand and especially a grow
ing export demand for our products of farm
