This is Omaha day at the National Corn
exposition.
The banks, railway offices and many Of
the stores and wholesale houses will close
this afternoon, giving their employees
half holiday in which to visit the show.
The management of the exposition prom
ises some novel entertainments for Omaha
day, but declines to make announcement
except on the bulletin boards at the expo
stion grounds today. The officers OF the
exposition have urged that Omaha people
should show by their presence at the show
that they appreciate this, the biggest affair
of the kind this year held in the city.
An extra effort is being.put forth to have
thousands of Omaha people turn out today
to swell the attendance. While the attend
ance at the corn show this year has been
greater than last year the increase has
come from out-of-town visitors and the
Omaha people have not patronlsed the
show as they should. The management
says that Omaha must turn out strong
and give the show good backing II the
show is to be brought to Omaha next year.
Everybody says It is a great show and still
the Omaha attendance has not been up to
last year.
Two governors will speak in the music
hall this afternoon. Governor John Burke
of North Dakota and Governor r. s. Yes
sey of South Dakota speak at o'clock.
Both are interesting takers and come with
a message. They are sure to have large
audiences.

Besack superintendent OF the department
of domestic science, will deliver an Illus
trated lecture this evening at s:l5 o'clock
in Biograph hall on meat cuts This lee

! Friday the school children Of Omaha will
be admitted to the Corn Show for 10
/ cents and a special lecture on forestry has
been prepared for their especial benefit
! Don Carlos Ellis OF the Department OF
/ Agriculture will give the Illustrated lee
ture at 8 o'clock in music hall.
Governor sbaIIenberEer Speaks.
At the good roads meeting Wednesday
afternoon Governor Shallenberger spoke
briefly on the great benefits to be derived
! from having good roads by which the farm
ers could more easily get the products OF
/ their farm to market. He told Of the Won
derfuI resouces of Nebraska and told OF the
greater returns they would yield 10 the
farmers II the good roads movement pre-
walls.
I'VE have the best start Of any state for
good roads" said Governor shallenbersas,
and we want to put to use the advantage
nature has given u.s.
II am deeply interested In agriculture
and all this Corn Show stands for. Last
year we produced $3.50 10000 OF products in
Nebraska
''The people Of Nebraska living in the
sunshine OF the Nebraska fields should be
the most happy people on earth.
when the gold mines OF Alaska are dug
away they are gone forever, when the
mines OF Butte are worn away they are
gone forever when the forests or the north
west are cut away they are gone forever,
but when Nebraska yields up one OF it's
golden crops It is but one Of a series and
win go on forever. The people OF the Mis-
souri, valley have the greatest future be-
fore them OF any people that ever lived on
earth, because they are in tho middle OF
the corn belt which is limited by metes
and hounds
Il want TO congratulate the people who
built this great show. II stands for the
material Advancement OF this great coun-
try"

to the railroad over poor roads was more
than the cost OF shipping the grain from
