& Co. for the Omaha. district speaking of
trade for the past wree aui nonth saws:
April has been an Improvement in all
seasonable jobbng lines over March, and
the volume of trade for the month is away
ahead of one year ago. The wholesale
grocery trade being now confined TO three
houses, where a year ago there were four,
shows that the three firms are doing more
business this year than was done by the
been good. One house reports 81 per cent
increase of sales for the first four months
of 1897, as compared with the same months
of 1896. In practically all the lines repre-
sented here the report made Is highly
satisfactory for these depressed times. Per
haps groceries, dry goods and hardware
have enjoyed the greatest share of growth
the houses in these lines profiting by the
short orders and reduced stocks. and the
fact of handling staples always In demand
The week in retail trade has been only
fair. The two or three warm days moved
some spring goods, but for the most part
the spring trade requires forcing.

state of insensibility to the really en-
couraging conditions few weeks ahead of
"At South Omaha there is no complaint
because of the heavy continuous rainfall. 1t

men see in the extensive area over which the
rains have been falling improved pastur-
age and rapid increase of range cattle
for the fall market and next winters feed
ing. The short grass crops and general
drouth of 1893, 1894 and 1895 depleted the
west of cattle, as we'll as hogs. 1t was then
freely predicted that South Omaha would
be crippled for stock for five years. The
remarkable recuperative powers of the state
are again illustrated, however. by the good
promise of cattle and hogs, sufficient for
next seasons needs. The wet weather is
bad for the farmers on the bottom lands,

dealers. 1t is surely an Ill wind that fills
nobody's canvas.
