When I traveled from Kansas City up to Lincoln NE and or points west on the
Platte River you would find these marvelous brick structures sprinkled in
just about every town.  Some still in use as this one is but most falling
down as the temporary prosperity of the late 1800's to about 1920's passed
the plain states by.  Not many jobs but lately if you owned the land you
did quite well in agriculture as the Missouri and the Platte provide a good
amount  of water without tapping into the Ogallala.  It helps that cities
like York, NE charge essentially city water prices for center pivot wells
so the incentives are to not irrigate.
