CROP INDICATIONS GREAT m Charles Lane Most Thorough Opti mist After Trip Over State. s '- - WHEAT CROP ALREADY MADE Corn is Sow 1 Eacelleat Condition and U Showing) Effect of Be. cent Rains, Which Bene flted All Crops. "After havLig made an extended trip ever the Nebraska lines and after having thoroughly Investigated the reports of tlie -asents. Charles J. Lane, general freight agent of the Union Pacific, be' tleves that the Nebraska wheat crop will "to fully up to the average of former years. He places the yield at 40,000,000 bushels and would not be surprised to ce It reach 45,000,000. T.:e estimate of Mr. Lane la made after K-iinr' into the conditions most, thor oughly. He takes the position that the co A weather of the last two or three wwks has been Idea! for the growth of ti.e cereal and that since the rains set in, if lias f ained far more than it lost dur ing the dry, windy and unfavorable wea ihif 'jt Hay. .11! over the wheat growing section ot M.iak and Kansas Mr. Lane says that -eat has made wonderful progress end that In many localities where one tn.i.ith ago farmers considered the wheat trap a failure. It has come out to the extent that It will make an average crop. J ii uUier localities where not damaged, tli? yield will be alone the bumper line. Everywhere the stand is excellent; the straw, though, carries long heads, which arc illled to the very tips with plump berries. Coru la Booming;. Corn, according to Mr. Lane, is making a good growth and did not lose as much during the Intense .weather of May aa some supposed. The bot and' dry wea ther cf that month gave the seed a fair start and the warmth held all through the cool weather Chat was so beneficial to the wheat. Cut worms have injured some fields, but Mr. Lane's idea is that the damage that they have caused, has been grealy overestimated. With season able weather from now on. ha looks for better than an avorage crop. "Farmers of Nebraska," lays Mr. Lane, "are in a far better condition than ever before. Everywnere they have gone into the dairy business on an extensive scale stid the recent rains have put pastures in perfect condition. As a result, the out put of cream Is far above the normal and the product la bringing prices that la putting vast sums of money In clrcu-, lation in the rural districts throughout the west," The money from cream, says Mr. Lane, is not only taking care of current needs, but Is supplying farmers with a large in come that comes in as regularly as a salary that la paid , at stated intervals "to a man who works for wages. The dairy proposition, he says, has changed the condition of things so that farmers instead ot having money twice annualy, ot periods when they market their grain and hogs, now receive it weekly, or as often as they take their cream to market.
