Wraith to ..
Because thli has born an exceptionally
dry year there have been constant report
that the crops on the wml-arld land woro
a totaJ failure In a)', sections of the .vest.
Early lti the ea.in the outlook vti very
11cou;6s1riB. hut at harvest time, it lui
hecn IiumiI thai t'.ey arc up to the avorarc
of previous yearn B. P. Critchlow of
Ogden, Ltah. an acknowledged authority -f
wentein crops and managfr of one of the
Ogden main branches of the Consolidated
Wagon and Machine company, has Just
completed a trip of ovr !"0 miles through
the I'tah and Idaho dry farmed sections
Of the wheat crop he says:
"I find In Box Klder county, where the
pioneer work In dry farming Is dne, that
tho threshing Is progressing In good shape
and that the crops are nearly up to the
average svanon. The yield Is running from
ten to fifteen to twenty bushels per acre,
and thla Is on land which Is soiling at but
Jt per acre, and not for raw land, but
for that which is fenced and under cultiva
tion. ' In the Blue Creek district aome flelda
diil better than this, and last year they
averaged twenty bushels per acre In that
section. Borne 400-acre tracts there pro
duced an average of thirty bushels. Charles'
Ounnell had such a tract and sold It for
$X per acre after threshing time and after
he has sold 12,0(10 bushels of wheat from the
land- The crop brought more than the land,
lie at once bought two sections from the
Promontory Land company at from J10 to
$15 per acre for the raw land. and It costs
15 per acre to clear off the sage brush. He
will seed one section of this land during
the month of August.
Takes a l.Htle Time.
"The first year's cultivation does not
bring the results of succeeding years, as
the land hn not had the opportunity to
store moisture. Those who make the
greatest success In the semi-arid belt are
those who follow the :lan of summer fal
lowing. The method la as follows: The
ground Is plowed thoroughly soon after the
crop Is taken off, and u Is then allowed
to rest until the following spring. It Is
found that more moisture Is stored In the
plowed ground than In that which Is not
plowed at this time. The field Is hanrowed
early In the spring with a spike-toothed
harrow, and this Is done again In about a
month, not only to make Into a fine mulch
so as to holu the moisture, but also to keep
down vegetation. At the beginning of the
third month It Is gone over with a disc
harrow so as to prevent vegetation getting
a start, which would use up the moisture.
In July, Just under the surface. It will be
found that the soil Is moist enough to be
squeezed Into a ball, and In August It Is
in fine shape to receive the seed and pro
duce a crop next year. The fall wheat is
usually planted in August, although some
times the seeding season is delayed until
September.
"This year there are thousands of acres
of splendid crops on dry farmed lands and
toe failures found are much fewer than
in previous years. Those that occur come
from failure to take proper precautions in
seeding, and when the crop winter kills it
is because the soli had not been properly
prepared or that the seed had not been
properly drilled, and that the wheat had
not obtained a good root start This failure
to properly put In the crop is also the oc
caslon for lack of vitality In the spring
when such occurs.
Work Jnst Begun.
"The 1910 crop la one which I am sure
will equal the one of 19ii, and that was a
wet year, and I am sure' that the dry land
farming work Is but begun. There are
over 3UU.00O acres of Biich land within a
radius of UK) miles of thla city which can
bo bought at from S15 to $X per acre, and
while tho best plan Is to put In but one
half the land euch year and to let It lie
fallow the next sinner, the returns from
a single crop will pay the cost.
"One of the favorue wheats now is the
Aluska wheat, which is now liked by the
miller. This Is the same wheat as the
Seven-Headed Kgyptlun wheat raised hero
thirty-five or forty years ago, and which
the millers of that time condemned be
cause it was too hard for their machinery
to grind.
"The oats crop in up to Its usual aver
age, but It is raised by Irrigation, and so
can be defended on. Barley does well on
tile dry-farmed land and tiie crop this
year la up to the average. The crop raised
ucre is principally of the club varieties,
but the farmers are being encouraged to
raise the two-rowed varieties of malting
barley, especially those near Ogden and
Bait Lake City. The expansion of the dry
furmlng nietood means a wonderful ad
vance in this as well as in wheut crops of
the future."

of the various products that are raised
In northern Colorado, and more especially
in Weld county, by both dry farming end
by Irrigation.
The famous Greely potato-?, which are
raised in great quantities In nls county,
are in the foreground of the ethlbit ard
besides, there are specimcnts of grain,
grasses, sugar beets and fruits and veg
etables which would do any county proud
O. L. McDonough, colonisation agent of
the Union Pacific, is i;i charge of the
local end of It and promises that Omaha
and Nebraska will open thel- eves whtn
they see It.
Prof. W. G. Brandenber of tho Col
orado State Board of Immigration will te

con lectures and a number of novel f mov
ing pictures showing how farming In this
county Is done. W. B. Lafflngwell, the
official lecturer of the Union pacific, will

R. A. Smith, advertising agent of the
Union Pacific, returned FriJay from
Pueblo, where he had been to attend the
National Irrigation congress, greatly 1m
pressed with the prospects In Colorado.
"Potatoes and sugar beets wero Just
being harvested whea 1 was thete, and
bumper crops are the prospers for tho
season, said Mr. Jm.th. "The sugar
beet crop there la enorni'Mii, Weld county
having three sugar factories, producing
from 35.000 to 46,000 sa".ks of sugar daily,
consuming yearly ab tut 1'2,'XK) tons of
sugan beets, valued at over 11,000,000.
This year's output .if potatoes will ex
ceed any other year by far. In former
years there have been 10.QJ0 cars shipped
out of the county east.''

Very Low.
September was not a very uusy month
In building this year and if It had not been
for the 11,000,000 permit Issued to '.he Union
Pacific the record would have fallen bev
eral hundred thousand dollars below the
September figures for last year. In 19u9
permlu were issued for 134 buildings, to
cost 1314,275, and In 1910 ninety-eight were
erected, costing ll.2O2.4;0. In 1908 the fig
ures were 1W permits and an expenditure
of t473,MOO.
For the first nine months of the year
1910 la doing very well, although It is not
quite up to 1909, which was a record
breaker. This year there were 1,2S0 permits
for buildings, costing $5,2). 483. Last year
the figures were 1,31a and 36,594,280, anj in
1908. 1.219 and $3,174,016.

and basement, of strictly fireproof con
struction, built entirely of steel with a
frontage of 125 feet on Wentworth avenue,
having a beautiful ark laid out on the

barn of sufficient six. to accommodate 200
horses.
It wll enable the Hartman concern to
buy out the complete stocks of any number
of factories and store the goods until

TIMELY REAL ESTATE GOSSIP
Sereral Deals Pending to Be Com

Bargains on Market
last Mow.
fhe money market continues to be the
chief subject of gossip In real estate cir
cles and a note of optimism is K-'ng
sounded. Dealers declare that It is becoming
more easy to finance deals and men !n
are nibbling at property are more encour
aged by the better chance of getting loans
to complete the transaction.
A new business month began yesterday
and It Is most certain to be a bMter one
than September, which was rather dull for
some dealers. That things have already
Improved is shown by the fact that aeveis.1
agents have deals of good size under way
and are nearly ready to complete) and an
nounce them.
It is a good time to get Into the marrcet
now, because more than usual the num
ber of choice bargains are being offered
the discriminating. These bargains are
not of any one or two classes, but In the
list of really "good buys" In downtown
business property, residences and rr,M-
dence sites in the Immediate residence ill-
tiicta, and suburban lots and tr.vcts. Par
ticularly In the downtown district are
some good chances at present for the in
vestor, which are told of In detail In the
advertising columns of this paper.
On general principles, too, a real Invear-
ment, wisely placed, is a good thing right
now. On of the city's biggest business
men, If not the very biggest, recent! de
clared apropos of the Cudahy lot deal on
Seventeenth street, that downtown Omaha
realty Is held far too low as a general
rule, and that purchasers of It will reap
a golden harvest. Thla was a man v!h
no realty of his own to sell and his words
may be taken as without ulterior motive
and as expressive of his genuine and ex
perienced opinion.
The new Union Pacific headquarters
will be one of the handsomest and best
equipped office buildings in Omaha. The
construction will be of preassd brink with
terra ootta trimming, and up to the third
story the walls will be decorated with
marble panels. There will be marble
walnsco tings in all the corridors.
The Dodge street entrance, which Is to
be the real front of the building, is a
very beautifully designed arch with an In
tricate design, carried out in several dif
ferent sorts of material. On top of the
twelfth story will be the cornice, ten feet
high and projecting four and one-halt
feet. The pattern of this corresponds to
the general scheme or ornament in the
window cornices and the entrances, and
Is very elaborate.
Every office In the building will be well
lighted with a window on the outside.
The whole floor service will extend up for
two stories, and above that will be a court
and an "L" addition, which will give the
floors the shape of an "E" with the top
horizontal line left off. .There will be
eight elevators for passengers, and on the
top floor a complete club-house tor the
use of employes.
The Union Paci.lo took out a $1,000,000
permit for the erection of this building.
Permits are pending for shop additions to
cost (236,000, ana S60.000 more goes for the
postofflce sub-station. The Burlington Is
helping the good work along by spending
$100,009 on Its new freight depot.
The Omaha & Council Bluffs Street
Railway company has decided to put on
the market two pieces of property which
It has not used for a long time and which,
though Ngood property, Is not likely to be
available for the purposes of the street car
company In time to come. One piece is the
northwest comer of Woolworth and Park
avenues, where once was located the old
horse car barn. It Is now used as a livery
stable. The property Is 100x150.
The otuer property Is the electric power
house between Nineteenth and Twentieth
streets, beside Nicholas street. This is a
building of massive construction, 132x204
feet, which is at present used by the Baker
Ice Machine company.
.Four grading machines and gangs of
workmen will be retired from work on the
Douglas county roads November 1, after
having built over seventy-five miles of new
road in the past season. Only a few in
cidental road Jobs remain now to be fin
ished, such as the repavlng of Dodge
street from Forty-eighth to Fiftieth street.
A surplus of $9,167 remains in the In
heritance tax fund after the expenditures
maue on several miles of roadway on
west Dodge and v. streets and the Flor
ence boulevard.
County Commissioner Pickard announced
Friday there had been more road work
done this season than ever before.

Another Fight
On for Estate
of Joe Connor
Long Threatened War Develops
Among Relatives Over Cutting
Up of $500,000 Estate. .
Long-threatened warfare among the heirs
of Joseph A. Connor broke out In county
court Saturday when Frnnklln Lamb of
Chicago filed a tW.OOO claim against the
estate of the eccentric eld man over whose
jr.00.000 worth of property two terrific legal
battles have already been waged.
The breach which has existed between
Connor's sister. Mrs. Ellen J. O'Connor, and
her daughter, Mrs. Mary Lamb, of Chicago,
wife of Franklin Lamb, Is now in legal
evidence. Franklin Lamb Is the plaintiff
In the suit In behalf of his son. The really
moving spirit is doubtless Mrs. Lamb, who
was the most prominent figure among the
heirs in the contest with the church for
the estate.
The petition asserts that Joseph Connor
promised to bequeath M,000 to his
gTand-nephew, Franklin, Lamb, Jr., the
promise being alleged to have been made
to the parents on condition that the boy
come to live for a time with his grand
uncle. Mrs. Lamb signed a division agreement
with Mrs. O'Connor, Miss Grace Connor,
the adopted daughter, and Mrs. Mary
Hlnes of Colorado, another sister of Con
nor. Mrs. Lamb testified in the trial that
the reason she, a niece, was let In on the
same terms as her mother, Mrs. O'Connor,
was because Connor had promised to do as
much for Franklin Lamb, the boy, as for
Miss Grace Connor.
With this one-fourth or one-flth share,
(a five-part agreement was made later),
Mrs. Lamb was supposed to rest content.
It Is patent that she has not and falling to
reach an agreement with the other heirs,
his initiated suit.
The Connor will case so far as the ad-J
mining of the estate to probate. Is now
before the supreme court where it was ap
pealed after a district court Jury has sus
tained the county court In refusing to
admit the alleged will a copy of which was
offered for probate. The proponents It will
be remembered asserted that the will was
In existence at the time of Mr. Connor's
death and that It later mysteriously dis
appeared. We have to, 000 acres tributary to out
