REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS The Government takes the value of all the lands in a state, the high-priced land and the low-priced land, and then strikes an average. On Page 36 of the “Monthly Crop Report” for April, 1916, published by authority of the Secretary of Agriculture, is found a comparison of the average value per acre of land with improvements, as follows: CAPITALIST, O'NEILL CONTRACTOR INVESTMENTS VALENTINE CAPITALIST NEBRASKA—Average value per acre, .$76 KA NS A S—Average value per acre, $58 _ The U. S. Government states officially that the average value per acre of land with improvements is $18.00 per acre less in Kansas than in Nebraska. On a quarter section this amounts to $2,880.00. The soil of Kansas in every way is equal to that of Nebraska. Climatic conditions are the same. THEN WHY THIS DIFFERENCE IN FAVOR OF NEBRASKA? THE ANSWER IS SIMPLY THIS: PRO. HIBITION!
