AT AL TR M W A S i v PUSHING THE WORK Order Bucceeds Chaos at the State Fair Grounds, ALONG SIGHTS SEEN AT NEBRASKA'S WHITE CITY Decomes a ¥ re King Kor All of Hix Pr 1 Glory. Dare Prairi Beauty, W Relgn in n the state astonished have been fair grounds the won wrought Those who visited a week ago would b derful changes which there within the past seven days. The meta morphose has been both rapid an effective It & view of the grounds was impressive one week ago, it will be found enchanting today especlally as you approach from the south east, via the Ruser park road., Here commanded a wider and more comprehen sive and imposing view of the whol closure than from any other that, too, notwithstanding you at the same from the hill top. Beginning with its beautiful paddock, ornamental amphitheater, headquarters, checking depots and stables; then the long, sloping, grassy acelivity, running like a fairy rampart clear round to the Elmwood park with the white city glistening in blazing sun like o many ench: of another land upon its crest. Every building in the place has at last assumed its perfect symmetry, and all but one or two have received their second coat of paint, and o far as the exterior goes are as good as finished, thus completing the effectiveness of the picture. BROUGHT ORDER OUT OF CHAOS, Superintendent Overbeck is certainly mak. ing hay while the sun shines. A week this magle city in a crude state, with bulldings bristling with partially covered roofs, ant portals and casements, painted sides with a heterogeneous litter lumber and building materials e environing. None of these embryotic condi tions are visit today. Each struciure stands a completed monument in itself the debris of carpenter, plasterer,® rosfer and tinner his been swept away, and hdden from sight; the buildings shine in their snowy coats of White, and an air of finish is everywhere § ed. Of course there yet remains a vast amcunt of work to be done, but what has been so far accom- plished hus been done thoroughly, even to cleaning up. This is certainly a wise plan and means u saving of tme and confusion in_the long run. It looks now as If the state fair were golng to be a gigantic event, and as successful as all Nebraska could wish it. The grounds and buildings are certainly the equal of any state fair buildings in point of architectural oeauty and durability of finish in the whole broad west, and all the other conditions are eminently favorable and rowing more with each passing day. The thoroughness of the work thus far done, the high average of excellence which characterizes the whole general plan, the perfect hirmony of action which prevails within the whole working force and the bright outlook which the re- vival of business offers to the great enter tainment as well as to every other industry make the prospect of a glorious triumph almost certain. Perseverance, industry and money will sccomplish almost anything, and as Nebraska and Omaha have plenty of all these, the above prediction will be verified If the public does its part. There must be an art atmosphere in the community as well as in the sky for an artist to do all that 18 possible within him, and o it is with our state fair. Public approval, appreciation a assistance must furnish the management the encouragemeqt and the perseverance to carry this grand erterprise into successful achieve- ment., HERE THEY VIEW THE SPEEDERS. Under Superintendent Swigert's supervision the race track is rapidly assuming a finished Took and witn the completion of the bulldings in contemplation Omaha will have one of the best equipped race courses in the United States. The ampitheater and judges' stand will receive their finishing strokes in less than ten days, after which the big force of workmen’s whole attention will be devoted to the perfection of the track. In another year the race association hopes to be war- ranted in building a club house, which will be modern in all details, following the colonial style, with lunch counter and dining rooms, pantry, kitchen, store and toilet rooms conveniently arranged and provided with all the modern appointments. The ampitheater is now all under roof and the carpenters are engaged In topping off the whole with a showy tower, or dome, from which a magnificent view can be obtained of the whole surrounding country. The prom- enade will have an area of 40x330 feet will give the spectators an opportunity fo little exercise between h s and races. track fs belng constructed with a view to fast work. The home stretch is about eighty and the remainder about seventy feet wide. The stretch Is to have a measurement of over 1,000 feet. A perfect system of drainage, a full water supply and a electric plant will be added features to this special enterprise. The judges' stand, immediately fronting the center aisle of the grandstand, has been built on the pagoda style and is a bit of artistic finish to the tout ensemble of track and structures. The work of building the feiice, enclosing the fair grounds, is well under way, the whole north side being up. It is of wire, in panels, and is both orna- mental and substantial.

Ewel. A prettier sight is sel- dom presente e beet plantation—Iif such it may be called—is situated one and a half miles nort st of Valley., On the day in question the sight which met the visitor's view was one of busy activity. At work in the fleld were fifty Russians, male and fe- male, old and young. The crop W heing “laid by,” and it was the last day but when that task would be completed. The sun bronzed, hardy Russians were literally hump- ing themselves putting on the finishing touches, Sugar beet culture in passed the experimental spring when the Valley ugar Beet company was incorporated it was for the purpose of making a practical demonstration of that fact and incidentally adding a“few dollars to the stockholders' bank accounts. The personnel of the beet growers’ ass clation is as follows A. P. Akerlund, president; H. M. Puffer secretary and treasurer; M Johnson, Frank Richards, W. G. Whitmore, Alex Gard r, Charles John Hempstead, A. A. Egbert, C. P. L. P. Byars, W. Weekly, C Springer, E. 8. Fio M. Williams, John Ried and_J. V. Or Kkholders and di rectors. Superintendent Ewel, in speaking of the industry, said SCIENCE OF AGRICULTURE. “The great progress the science of agricul ture has made in those countries where the culture of the sugar beet has been introduced I am sorry to say, is not fully known in America, simply becanse the farmers do not glve it sufficient considerati The main point of the beet sugar industry is the cul- ture of the beet, and growers should under- stand thoroughly all conditions of its culture, While practical experience counts in sugar beet culture as well as other branches of hus bandry, it is absolutely ne y that the growers, in order to make the business profitable and meet the exigencies of circnm tances, should keep posted at all times on the progress of the science of the art. he lea of the beet are to it what the s are to the human race. Through them nourishment is conducted to the plant. The sugar 1t and the growth of the beet depends wholly on the size and number of the leaves of the plant. The functions of the leaves start as soon as the first spear of the plant breaks through the soil. During th first period of the beet's growth the leave are from eight to ten times heavier in weight than the beet proper. By the end of July however, the relative proportions of the leaves and roots, respectively, are about three to one, and by the last of August the weight of foliage and roots are equal. And by har vest time the beet is from four to six times as heavy as the leaves.” The beets grown in the vicinity of Valley are known as the Klein ¢ Wanzelben and according to President Akerlund and Sup intendent wel of the Valley both of whom have had a number of years practical experience growing beets, both in this and the old country, the Klein Wanzel- ben is best adapted to the soil and climate of Nebraska. This beet is a cross between the Imperial and Vilmorin and is noted among growers for weight and sugar coi tent. Last spring, after the Valley stock comp: was organized, Mr. Ewel came to Valley from Grand Island and took charge of th preliminary arrangements. After the ground was prepared and planted a_colony of Rus- sians, consisting of nine familles, came from Hastings nd tended the erop on contract at $12 per acre. e colony was here about ten weeks and earned about $40 per capita The rich, sandy loam of the Platte-Elk horn bottoms Is spectally adopted to growing sugar beets and a sugar beet factory among the possibilities for Douglas county season. To warrant the building of a howev it is necessary for the to contract and grow 2,500 or 4,000 acres of the sugar producing vegetable However, whether there is a factory built in the Douglas county beet district or not, will be grown next year on a much r scale than this. FARMERS ARE The campaign just closing has been most satisfactory to the Douglas county farmers and it is confidently believed now that there will be no trouble whatever next season of contracting a sufficient acreage of beets throughout the county to warrant the es- tablishment of a factory within its borde To grow beets successfully, according to Mr. Ewel, it is necessary to plow the beet ground In the fall, the deeper the better, according to circumstances and the depth of the black loam. The seed should be sown as early in the spring as possible after the ground has become warm enough to start vegetation. The beet seed is a small ball that contalns from one to six seed grains, and If 100 of these bails germinate 150 plants the seed Is considered good. Satis- factory results have been obtained with seed eight ‘years old, but it is not best to plant seed older than three years. The seed is drilled in rows by a machine constructed for that purpose, and while it is not drilled deeper than three-quarters of an inch, it is pressed firmly into the ground. With favor able weather the seed germinates quickly and the plants grow rapidly. The successful beet growers keep the soil open aud airy and do not allow a weed to find lodgment in their fields.

E. A. Green, the contractor, now has over 100 teams at work, and has agreed to have the ditch completed not later than October 15. “The Rock Springs company has constructed a diteh seventeen miles long, which furnishes some 600 inches of water for about seventy five days each season. This company has a model plant, and made a very satisfactory showing in 1804-5. William Wilson, Tom and others have small plants, which are urns which surprised even the owners. John Hardenburgh & Co., cpened & small plant this summer, from which they received large returns. But the most phenomenal ground thus far discovered is on what is known as the ‘Timberlake.” This locaticn embraces about 1,500 acres, and is certainly the most promising placer property discovered since the eventful days of '49. This property has been prospected most thor- oughly, over 200 pits having been sunk to bed rock, and no one will dispute the statement that the ground will average more than 50 cents per cubic yard. The owners of the last named property are the discoverers and loca- tors. John Hardenburgh and Hugh Morrison own the Morning and Evening Star. William Thomas Booth, Willlam Booth, L , John um, Sumner Porter, ( Jchn W. Darr, S. B. Bennett s others own the balance of this rich property The location is such that the tailings are washed down i imberlake, which has a fall of nearly feet to the mile, thence into Four-M which carr'es them into the Snake river. There are no trees, stumps houlders or other obstructions of any kind whatever to interfere with the rapid and suc cessful working of the property. The only drawback is the scarcity of water, which can only be had by constructing a ditch some thirty miles in length, which the owners are without funds to do. A few figures will bring to mind the great valué of this property. There are 4,840 cubic yards to the acre, and as the pay gravel will average four yards in depth, each acre con- tains 19,360 cubic yards, which, at the low estimate of 50 cents, shows a value of §9,680, or a total for the 1,600 acres of the enormous sum of $14,620,000. “The cost of the construction of a ditch ready to put water on the ground would leave a net profit of $14,120,000. Experts claim that with 3,000 inches of water, 9,000 cubic yards of gravel can be washed each twenty-four hours, ‘and that the income from the property would be $4,500. “Thus It will be seen that this property will pay the entire purchase price, cost of ditch and all running expenses, the first year, and leave a clear profit of $250,000. Few people give the question of the enormous profits of perating mines the attention it deserves.
