The fnspaction of grain in Nebraska was looked upon in the early part of tho summer ns something of an experiment, but it has now been in operation some weeks and has prroved to be an unqualified success, Chief Inspector Blanchard, having been himself a grain grower and familiar with the views of grain producers, obtained for his assistunt ono of the best grain experts in the counti and togetner they have been able to conduct the inspection in & manner highly satisfac- tory to both buyers and sellers So fur all certificates of inspection issued from Mr. Blanchard’s offico have been ac- cepted at easterne markets and grain men claim that Nebraska inspection will soon bo as well known and as readily accepted as that of any other state.

If it had not been for tho Nevraska inspection law the dealer would havo been under the necessity of sell- ing the grain according to the Baltimore grading on the sample, that is as No. 8. At that time the difference in the market pri between No. 2 and No. 1 was 10¢ per bushel which, on 50,000 bushels woula amount to 85,000 1f the local dealer had been forced to sell that lot of grain as No. 3 he would have notified ull his agents tnroughout the state to reduce tho t they waere paying for rye and other aska_buyers, learning of the sale, ve done the same thing.

A few thought by raising $3),000 the Oxnards might be induced to eroct the fac othors thought tho idea absurd and the or- nators of the theory quits visionary it not insane. To be sure Norfolk had over many advantages other cities in the state, having an in- exhaustible water supply and being located in the center of the best sugar beet countr, in the world, Tt soil of Germany, whoro more beet sugar is made than elsewhoro, produces only 12 per cent saceharine matte while Nebraska's soi! produces 16 to 20 per- centum. Certainly this was a good poiut in Norfolk's favor, and whilo the beet sugar industry is an experiment with the agricul- turists of the state its success is an assured fact to the Oxnards and Hamiltons, who are putting the vast amount of money 1u it. The sugar industry is yet in its infanoy, the people of thestats have no idea of 1ts future developments and what it has in storo for them. Instead of the 160 ac farms they can just as we!l bo ten acre tracts and wake more money from the latter than the former, thereby making the land much morg valuable, making the country more densely pobulated and the citics lavger, Certainly is would bring success, but as to the lo n of the factory, with such men at the Im as H.
