PROGRESSIVE HOME MAKERS
Notable Record of Prosperity shown
by the Omaha Loan and Build
ing Association.

The semi-annual report OF the Omaha
Loan and Building association just com
pleted presents hatteripg evidence of pros
perity among the home makers of Omaha
and South Omaha. During the six months
period the associations business increased
$l2l,OOO, bringing the total assets up 10
SS45,OO0. Earnings amounted to 1872 los. out
of which a semi-annual dividend at the
rate of per cent per annum was declared.
The net surplus for the half year Is $500,
which swells the fund for contingent losses
to $25,OOO
A feature OF the report showing the pros
perity of the people hereabouts is the
notable increase in the item Of loans re-
paid. The total is $99 $40, against 81. 1850
for the last half of 1904 Supplementing this
favorable showing is a decrease In with
drawals and an increase In savings de-
posits, resulting in a sharp increase in
the cash balance. Receipts for six months
amounted to S352,567
For the third time In its business life
the Omaha association reduces the interest
rate for loans The present reduction is
from 70 to 65 cents per month on each
800, bringing the rate under per cent.
Besides this, borrowers are given the right
to have each 800 paid in on pledged shares
credited directly TO their loans, reducing
the principal TO that amount These
changes are substantial gains for home
getters justified by the steady growth of
the association, and are calculated TO
greatly stimulate home building in the
twin cities.

Etatespas a law providing for annual
distribution of dividends on policies Of
life insurance by all companies. after
the second policy year. This would pe
an excellent provision, but some of the
companies would be compelled to
change their method of doing business

so with the Pacific Mutual Life Insur-

ten practically no other form of policy
for years. Over 80 per cent. of their

built upon contiguous territory, the
line of demarkation being purely ar
bitrary. They are commercially and
socially one community and are con-
nected with this city by the most in
innate ties and associations.
South Canon is a residence section
full OF old shade trees and cozily
shaded homes. Lincoln Park is a
fruit growing section. East Canon,
Four Mile and Fruitmere are local
names for fruit growing section

John Ritzman

John Ritzman is a fruit grower
who has unbounded faith in this com
munity. In the first place he came
here for his health and is now about
as strong man as you will find
anywhere. He came here about five
years ago from Pittsburg, Pa. where
he had been engaged in the grocery
and meat business.
Mr.. Ritzman went first to a sani-
tarium in Boulder but soon concluded
that work on fruit farm was health
ier than life in a sanitarium so came
down to Canon
He began by buying small tract
and kept on buying until he had
twenty-nine acres.
This summer he sold twenty-four
acres to Col. J. Q. Macdonald for
$4,000 but within a week bought an
