and business man of Omaha. .Although

way at his home, surrounded by hit chil
dren and their children. It will he a fam

during the afternoon.
"While Mr. Krug had not expected that
tiha data of the anniversary of hla lilrlh
vraa knows by any except a limited num.
bar of intimate frienda. it appears that
he ku been mistaken, for from near and
far durlnir the last week letters and tele
grains of cbnrratulations hava been
pouring in upon him until ha Is swamped
under the volume of his mall. The let
ten and messages all wish him many
mora long years of life and the Rood and

It had been planned to make the birth
day celebration Tuesday just a family
gathering, but Indications are that Its
scope la likely to go far beyond this, for,
be It known, already many of the men of
Omaha, thorn from all walks of lire,
have assertod that at some Uraa during
the day they propose to call upon Mr.
Krug and shake bis hand and wish him
well, even if they can remain but for a
minute r to.
la Perfect Health.
Though 80 years of age, Mr. Krug la in
perfect health and not a day passes that
he to not at his place of business, taking
as much Interest in It and looking into
the details aa closely as he did twenty
five years ago. Ml sty is as elastic as
that of a boy and he is aa straight as an
arrow. His eyesight Is good and In
very respect he la a well-preserved man
and might be taken for one at' least
tweaty years his junior. ,
Fred Krug has the right to be called
a pioneer of both Omaha and Nebraska,
for ha has resided her for more than
half a century. All his possessions are
here and this to his home.
Her in Omaha ar numerous monu
ments that mark the progresslveness of
the pioneer cltlsen who located here
when the city was but a straggling fron
tier trading point He had faith In the
future and Invesd hla money, long since
having come to be rated aa one of 'the
-wealthy men of Omaha and the stste of
Nebraska.
Born near Caste!, -Germany, December
333, when 1 years of a Fred Krug
left home and relatives behind and, turn
ing his back on his native bind, turned
his face toward America. - II landed In
NewYork, but did not remain ther long,
moving on to fit Louis, .where be secured
work In. a brewery and later, met. wooed
and won h to wife, who prior to the mar
riage was Miss Anna Wittlg.
Leaving St. Louis, Mr. Krug sottlud In
western Missouri, where he became su
perintendent of a small brewery, later
i-oming to Council Bluffs, -where he ac
cepted th position of superintendent of
the Haag Bros.' brewer'.
, Yrfct' la Omaha. .
Whll working in Council Bluffs, Mr.
Krug frequently made trips to the Ne
braska side of the Missouri river, and
after carefully studying the location of
Omaha and its , surroundings concluded
that her V to be built the metropolis
of the central west With this Idea In
Uew, early in itcs'he located in Omaha,
and, with the' Utile money that he had
been able to save while, working for
wages, determined to erect a brewery.
He made a payment on the lotat what
Is now IMS Farnani street, and by doing
muc of tho work himself In sis weeks
had erected tlie first brewery In Ne
braska. It was a frame building, on
lory high, and its dimensions were
22x10 feet.
Mr. Krug was not abundantly supplied
with money, so he had to take In a part
ner la order to get enough funds to buy
machinery and begin business. This
partner waa Rudolph .falser. Finally the
brewery began operations and was able
to turn cut twclv t. fifteen barrels of
beer per day. Mr. Krug doing most of
1h work about the establishment
locates New Browery,
Additions' to the plant were made from
time to time, and In iei what thenvwas
; considered a model brewery was erected
; at FJeventh and Jackson streets. Later
. th fetialnee outgrew the capacity of this
, brewery, and along In th early Ms Mr.
; Krtig purchased eighteen acres of land
', at V In tun and Twenty-sixth streets,
; where after organising the Krug Brew
ing company, th stockholders all mem
bers of th family, he erected one of the
lsrtt. most modern and rnont complete
fcter brewing plants la the Lulled Stales.
During all these years Mr. Krug haa
Wsrt at the head' of the business that has
rde his name famous throughout the
, nlir west, for the goods that he manu
factures are on sale In ahffliet every city.
, town and hamlet in all of the country

operates a line of reirterUng cars of

very freiuiitly in full train lots, oft
times not breaking bulk until hundreds

WhB Mr. Krug has made a large
' amount of money, he has not invested

It didn't "just happen" that
the richest farming section of
our nation is covered ' by the
best farm paper. The beet farm
ers naturally read the best farm
paper.
Besides,' this territory and the
farm paper did not attain their
present prominence over night. In
each case development haa been
gradual but sure. Each depended
on the other. When our first issue
was printed, many years ago, corn
waB bo cheap it was used for fuel.
Conditions, with both, have changed.
This year while each farmer ot this
territory has raised a $2,600 crop of grain (not to mention
his live stock profits) Twentieth Century Farmer is being
regularly read-by a larger number ot farmers than ever
before 110,000 weekly
