The first load of new wheat was
brought into the city last Saturday
and unloaded at the Salem FIGURING
Mills. Jake Mitchell, the king Of
the warehousemen in the valley and
an expert Judge of wheat, stated
that the grain was first-class, even
better than usual. Out of one load
of 25 sacks hauled in by Phil Pain

north OF this city, there was So
bushels of nice clean wheat run

wheat is running from 21 to 80
bushels to the acre, machine meas

Another load was hauled In this
morning from the northern country,
which was of fine quality. From all
indications the Marion county far
mer is going TO realize a snug little
income from his wheat crops this
year, as in spite OF the cool weather
the wheat is farming out far better
than Il did last season.
Wheat quotations have not set
tied down to a steady gait as yet,
which is not unusual during the flrst
part of the harvesting season, but
II is being sold in this city at prices
ranging all the way from SS to 95c
per bushel. One hundred bushels
were sold at the Capital City mills
here Saturday az 95c per bushel,
and the grade OF this grain was far
better than the average. Several
more smaller lots have been dis
posed OF at 92 and 93c. II bids fair,
however, for wheat to hold up TO a
bumper price and the farmer who
has stuck to wheat raising will reap
a harvest both Of grain and price.

Good fellowship ruled at the dinner given

After the dinner at the Commercial club
the committee adjourned to Mr.. Martins
rooms to see the moving pictures made of
the trip. These pictures will be shown at
the den next Monday night.
The success OF this trip is the culmina
ton of a change of sentiment in Omaha, -
said j. C. Colt. "A few years ago 1t was
a hard task to get out as many boosters
as this for any sort of an occasion, but
now 1t seems as though the whole popula-
ton of Omaha were boosters. This ex-
cursion is the first given by Omaha, for
which applications for reservations had to
be turned down. Heretofore the com
mittee has had to hustle for representa-
tives to accompany the trip, but It was
some pleasure to turn down late corners

did not like the word and preferred con

want to be the dictator and are becoming
willing to consolidate"
Omaha is the top notch city I'm the trade

Mayor Solves
Tramp Problem
zuelow of Schuyler Tells Omaha How
His City Deals with Always
Unemployed.

Mayor Otto Zuelow of Schuyler thinks
he has solved the tramp problem, which
in cities of Schuyler's size is a serious
one.
His solution is simple and may be spelled
with Just four letters-W-O-R-K.
when a tramp comes along he is taken
before our magistrate, fined $40 and as
sessed the costs, which amount to $3.50"
says Mayor Zuelow. who spent Thursday
in Omaha, and then he is permitted to
work out this fine at $3.50 a day The
method has proved very successful and
Schuyler has one tramp today where 1t
had ten when 1 went into office"
But the mayor is a diligent man. He is
not content TO leave the details of his
scheme entirely to others. He is also a
studious man. He goes into the situation
personally, he studies the tramps, their
characteristics, tricks and turns, and gives
the closest attention to the application OF
his principle. And he is learning a whole
lot about human nature, and tramp nature
in particular that he didn't know before.
SThe other day said the mayor, 'one
tramp tainted right before my eyes. lie
Just shut his eyes and keeled over. l
called the doctor. Take this man out, /
told him, he's a sick man. Give him some
medicine and then give hin something TO
eat and let me know how much he eats
Il got hold of the man. l told him he
was a very sick man and had better be
careful. After he had eaten the doctor told
me he a eaten like a horse. l went in
where he was lying. And how are you
nowT l asked him No answer He lay
there with his eyes hut and pretended
not 10 hear or see me. l got him up, told
him he had eaten a big meal and would
have to go TO work. and II he didn't work
well I'd make him stay longer, but II ne
did work well he could get away two OF
three days sooner than he expected.
You never saw a man work as he did
II asked him when he got through II ht
would come back to Schuyler, and he said
I'd rather so to hill
Il consider we have solved the problem
when we can make tramps prefer TO 90
there.
''This work which they do is on Oul
streets and our streets are in better eondi'
tion today than they ever were. ! war
rant you we won't nave such a thing as q
tramp in our town in another six months
Schuyler will be well advertised as a good
place for trsmps 10 pass up"
