Blizzards, plows, and crops mark Nebraska tale
The eastbound rotary snow plow astonishes sightseers while a Hanover Kansas man eyes leasing the Sidney creamery pending cow numbers. Nebraska irrigation advances amid rising nervous illness deaths, harsh winter stock survives western ranges, and spring crops push up. A large gray wolf mounts, a new stone church is planned near Henry Liner, and grass plus spring political crops appear as southern floods intensify. Wheel-tracks of the era show economic ties, tariff quirks, and farming life across the plains.

No single hog breed or feed dictates success in Nebraska
Last season's Nebraska pig crop contest showed no one best hog breed, feed, or equipment. Winners relied on constant clean water, steady clean self fed rations, and a hog lot sanitation system promoted by County Agent Willey. They selected well bred stock, bred to a good boar, managed them well, and supported agricultural college progress. A $70,000 Congregational church will be erected in Chadron as soon as warm weather justifies. Work is progressing on the Chadron municipal hospital.
