It bias already been decided to hold two meetings during the coming sum- mer, and it is hoped that by the time it is necessary to bogin making the arrancements something definite wiil be learned from him. “The park has been a financial failure for the past year or two.” said a gentleman yes- terday, who is connected with the Driving Park association, “by reason of mismanage- ment.

After 10 years close confinement, I am compelled through thealv HOW FARMING PAYS IN NEBRASKA. At a recent meoting of the Dixon County Farmers’ institute, Senator H, P. Shumway read the following paper on “*Does Farming Pay:” In the fall of 1886 we purchased 240 acres of land, of which 150 was improved and for which we paid 816 per acre, or $3,840. In 1887 we broke 40 acres more, putting 150 acres in corn, wheat and oats and 40 acres in flax, leaving 50 acres for pasture and hay. Thatyear we paia for cuttle, horses,” hogs, farm machinery, ete., $3,811.75. But before January we had sold from the farm $2,121.83, in il duce and live stock and grain, leaving us after deducting all cost of labor, taxes, and 10 per cent interest on all money invested i nd and chattels, a clear prolitof $957.58, oraclear profit of almost ;N per acre, ufter deducting expenses and nterest. In 1888 we rented part of the land. It was & mistake. We would have done much better to have hired the labor and farmed it oufselves. That yeur’s in- voice only showed, after deducting ex- pense and 10 per cent interest, a clear | profit of $318, but that left us, afver 10 per cent interest, $1.30 per acre clear profit. In 1889 we sold ono 160-acre farm at an advance of 3600, and added to our farm a half section at $20 per ucre, so we farmed that year 400 acres. On ac- count of the great drop in prices of live stock, light crops and low prices, 1889 was probably the hardest year northeast Nebraska farmers havo had since grasshopper times. It was a hard veur for us, also, for when we invoiced we lacked $220.50 of clearing 10 per cent. But as we farmed 400 acres it only lacked 55 cents per acre of clear- ing ten per cent.; orin other words, it puid expenses, 10 per cent interest on all money invested in chattels, and 7% per cent on farm lands. In 1890 we sold another 80 acres on which we made 3480, and left us only the half eection tofarm. The big prices for this year’s crops made this an ex- ceptionally good year, for when the balances were cast i left us 0 as clear. proflts, or $3 per acre besides 10 per cent interes The year 1891 was generally a good but we lost co erable money on s, 80 the invoices only showed a clear profit of $400, or $1.25 per acre, be- sides 10 per cent. This full we could have sold out our half section of land for $80 per ucre. If we had done so and stopped furming the result would have been as follows: Clear profits, after paying all ex- pensas, labor, taxes, and 10 per cent interest on money invested 10 land and chattals, Made by advance of land Clear profits at Wakefield, . § 0,05 08 At Coleridge Everett has farme 800 acres for three years, which now show a clear profit of. .., 4,500 00 “Total profit, i $11,185 08 So our tirm is over $11,000 better off than it would have heen had we never engaged in farming, while if we had charged farm land with 8 per cent in- terest instead of 10 per cent our invoice would have shown over $1,000 more profit. And when wo hear people complain that they cannot make a livingona farm we feel that there must be u screw loose somewhere. We have farmed to a greal disadvantage; for my time has heen 80 occupied with my business that I could not give the farms the at- tention that they deserved: and there are many favmers in this country wnose profits in comparison with the money invested would make our profits appear very insignificant. We can see in every direction farmers who came here only a fow years ago with but little meuns and now ‘nave nice houses, fine farms, large herds, no debts except those they can easily pay. and are worth from $10,000 to $15,000, Guided by our own expevience, in an- sworing the important question, *Does farming pay?” I would say most em- phatically, it does; and that'I fully be- lieve it pays better than mercantile business, 18 proven by the fact that in the last few years I have sold out wy in- terest in business at Winside, Concord and Coleridge, and as fast as [ could get the money have invested it in lunds, this full having bought 240 acres more for a permanent investment. I want my boys to be farmers, and good land in this part of the state will soon be hard to get at any price, and as fast us | got money ahead ] expect to invest it in lands, Ibelieve that farm land is a better investment than bunk shares, railroad stock or even government bonds. I have great faith in northeast Nebraska, for with the exception of Arizona and New Mexico 1 have visited every state and tervitory west of the Mississippi river to find good, cheap farm land, and believe that today north- Nebraska offers advantages un- equalled by any section in the western half of the United States. And in conclusion | would say that farming pays well, and the success of 95 per cent of our farmers proves that it pays. And I believe that the future prosperity of the farmer depends in a greut measure upon having a wise pro- tective policy. But if our munufactor- ies ave crippled, 8o the masses of the cities seek the farms, the over-produc- tion would make farm produce u drug on the market. Our manufactories should be stimulated and increased until the Amer more than consume the products of the American farms. Then we would have a home market in- dependent of foreign countries. Then the price of farm products would be incrensed not only by what it now costs to ship products abroad, but also by what it would cost other countries to ship produce here to compete with our farmers, And if the protective policy is wisely used, I believe there will come to American furmers an era of pros- pcri!{ that has never been equalled by any class of people in the history of the world. e ANNOUNCE!
