FOOD PRICES CO|NG D0WN
PACKER ARMOUR PROPHESlES
 AN EARLY DECLINE.
Declares Farmers Are Realizing Mis-. take in Storing Product and
 Then Losing Money.

Kansas City, Mo, Nov. 14.-That food prices have reached their climax and now are on the down grade is the belief of meat packers in Kansas City and other packing centers. Dealers in produce and other food supplies say the same thing.
 Charles w. Armour, head of the Ar mour interests in Kansas City, said:
 General food prices are working toward a lower basis. The cereals are coming down. People are going 10 take advantage of lower prices and that will have a tendency to relieve the stringency in meat prices, espe- cially pork"
 Armour said many growers of fruit and potatoes last year stored their crops rather than sell at good prices early in the season and finally lost out in the spring. This year, he said, they were profiting by their experience and are putting their products to consumD- tion at reasonable profits. Just how soon the lower prices were to come Armour said he didn't know.
 But we will welcome the time " he said, for no dealer feels it a pleasure to sell stuff at such high prices as pork has been bringing for several months. But when the packer has to pay S, 10 and II cents for live hogs, what has he got to say about prices?'
 Armour said that if the farmers would put forth their best efforts to raise good hogs the pork problem in this country would soon be solved, pointing out that if healthy hogs were raised the amount of pork condemned by the United States inspectors would be considerably less.

FREE SAMPLE OF LAXATIVE
 CURED THEIR CONSTIPATION

When a person has become discouraged through years of failure to find cure, and finally perhaps, gives up trying, it is small wonder that he becomes skep- tieal And yet. to all who have con stipation. we would say, 'Try just one thing more."
 We wish you would try pr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, a laxative tonic that has been used for a generation. Thousands are using it surely some of your friends among the number. You can buy it of any druggist at fifty cents and one dol lar a bottle, but better still, send your name and address to Dr. Caldwell for a free sample bottle. He will send you enough to convince you of it's merits, and then if you like it you can buy it of your druggist Mir. J. J. Petty of Unionville, Mo, MT. George w.

come from New York Chicago or St.
Louis. But along came the Omaha
dry goods jobbers with stocks so i'm
mense, with prices so favorable by
comparison, and with massive build
ings to house these stocks-buildings
other city of the giant class. Mr. Re
taller, seeing all of this, is rapidly
coming into the habit Of marking
Omaha down as the eastern terminus
of his dry goods buying tour
The story of Omaha's supremacy as
a packing center and live stock mart
is a matter of worldwide circulation.
The vast packing houses and stock
yards have built up the city Of South
Omaha, which, although a separate
municipality, divided from Omaha by
an imaginary boundary line, is in real
ity, so far as all practical purposes go,
part of Omaha proper. Official fig.
ures show that 5,45S,125 head of live
stock were received in South Omaha
last year. OF these over 100000
were hogs. In a numerical sense cat
tie came next, with 1,124,61S head.
Naturally, being the center of the
richest agricultural region in the
world, Omaha is a first-class grain
market. Corn crib of the nation" is
a nickname that has often been APP
piled to Omaha, and facts render that
appellation most timely for last year
there came to the Omaha markets
22,059, 400 bushels of corn Next in
the line of grain came wheat, with a
showing of 1O,O77,6OO bushels for the
year.
Omaha is especially inviting as a
home city, because of the many pretty
building sites that abound on every
side. Omaha, in fact, is a city of wide
areas and charming landscapes, and
the man of modest means may obtain
as fine view for his home as though
he had millions, for nature made these
beauty spots, and man is the bene-
ficiary. In many cities all of the
pretty places are handmade. In
Omaha the condition is exactly re-
versed. OF course, the handiwork of
Omaha daily bee., 1910-08-24

man is in evidence, but nature
wrought the greater part of the beau
tifying.
Getting back to the commercial side
of Omaha, when the figures have been
made along all of the different lines Of
activity, comes as a climax to conclu-
sions, the bank clearing statistics. The
banks are the arteries of commerce,
because, in a figurative sense, they
carry the very life blood of trade.
Omaha banks are among the strong
ones of the nation. Within the last
year one Omaha savings bank became
national institution and has just
moved into a magnificent sixteen-story
home of its own, while another Omaha
bank within the same period has pur-
chased and is remodeling for its own
use a million-dollar building, formerly
known as the New York Life-one Of
the most ornate and substantial struc-
Figures recently published in the daily
newspapers told the story of how the
bank clearings for the first seven
months of 1910 make the best show
ing ever recorded in Omaha's financial
history, and with several months of
1910 yet to come, indications make
safe the prophecy that 1910, taken in
the aggregate, will eclipse all other
years so far as total bank clearings are
concerned The total clearings for the
whole Of 1909 were $735,225, 56S. For
the year 1898 the clearings totalled
1927, 443, $40, making a gain of PAT
per cent in ten years. The year of
1909 showed an increase OF $133,O0O,-
600 in total clearances over 1908. 1t
is estimated that bank clearings re-
veal about 70 per cent of business ac-
tually transacted, consequently, &C
cording to this estimate-and it is
held good by accepted financial au-
thorities-Omaha last year reached
the billion mark, for there is official
record of $735, 225,56S in clearings,
and if this figure represents 20 per
cent of the whole volume it is a mat
ter of easy calculation to see where
the billion mark has been reached.

the Utah war; that an appropriation
be made for the removal of snags from
the Missouri river; that the city OF
Omaha should be made port of en-
try; that the Omaha postoifice should
be made a distributing office and, by
way of conclusion, just as DR.. Miller
was starting on his mission, the city
fathers slapped him on the shoulder
and, by way of parting Injunction,
said: Also while you are there, you
might get through any other measures
you may think of that may be for the
welfare Of the city of Omaha" Thus
there is found in history ample evf-
dence of that neutrality-suspicious."
spirit. Sometimes the pioneers fell
short of their aim, but even so, they
were persistent, and by keeping ever
lastingly at 1t they brought to Omaha
many institutions and many things Of
various kinds, all of which formed a
nucleus around which the Omaha of
today has grown up.
Those pioneers who initiated the
t-what-you- go-after" spirit have, a
majority of them at least, passed away
into the great beyond. A few still
linger-their work done, tlsy are
merely awaiting the summons. But.
in the place of those who have gone
and those who are on the verge of go
ing, there has come forward younger
generation and instilled into this
newer generation even more deeply
than in the older ones, is the idea that
Omaha must get what 1t goes after.
Therein lies the secret of the metro
politan supremacy of Omaha, 1910.
Gradually, not with a rush and a
boom presaging early decay, but with
steady, safe and sane growth, the
manufacturing scope Of Omaha is en-
larging and each year sees additions
to the ranks of the dinner bucket
brigade. AS the vast and as yet some~
Omaha daily bee., 1910-08-24

Omaha Is really three cities moulded
into one, for so far as all practical pur
poses are concerned Omaha, South
Omaha and Council Bluffs are one
great city. While these are separate
municipalities, they are linked by a
common bond of interests, and in go
ing from one to the other the traveller
has no way of knowing when he
crossed the boundary line, except that
in going to Council Bluffs he is re-
minded by the Missouri river that he
is entering another city, so classed for
governmental purposes, in another
state. Then, besides South Omaha
and Council Bluffs, there are Benson,
Florence, Dundee, Bellevue, Crook
City and Ralston, each promising
suburb-really a part of Omaha, but
each maintaining its own system of
government, and therefore being
counted separately in census enumera-
ton. If all of these were added to
Omahas census rating a surprisingly
large SuOWluB WOulu RESULT DuJ unuSI
existing conditions each Of the eight
municipalities stands alone in census
figures.
Another distinguishing feature of
Omaha is the fact that there is less of
city riff-raff, less of the slum element,
less of all that goes to make up unde-
sirable citizenship than in any other
American city of equal size. In Ne
braska the percentage of illiteracy is
less than in any other state of the
union, and this happy status is re-
fected in the quality of the inhabi-
tants who comprise the Nebraska
metropolis. Obviously, when Omaha
can produce official figures attesting
the fact that Omaha bank clearings are
in many instances of greater volume
than the clearings in cities twice as
large, the percentage of producers
must be remarkably large, and the
percentage of undesirables correspond
ingly small.
Omaha is yet but an infant as to
age, when the years of its existence are
matched up alongside of other cities
of equal commercial Importance. The
