There are many farmers who could
have or carry out no more practical
New Years resolution than the pur-
chase and use OF a good manure
spreader. It will not only mean fewer
blisters and callouses on the hands
through freedom from forbing the stuff
OFF the wagon, but will likewise mean
a great many dollars more In pocket as
result Of a more economical han
ding of the farm fertilizers and from
realizing q larger per cent Of their

Rotation as principle Of soil cul-
ture is not only good for the field
crops, but for those raised i'm the gar
den patch as well. Such rotation not
only rests the soil, but tends to checf;
the development of fungOus and other
pests which are likely to infest til"
ground if tie same crop is produced
on the same plot year after year.

to remember, too, in this connection
that the English average was secured

QUIET REIGNS IN MARKET
Common Effort Continues TO Do Dry
Goods Business on Small
Stocks.

NEW YORK, Nov.2s.-With a holiday
intervening, trading in cotton goods last
week was quiet. The export inquiries from
China have not materialized int orders,
as mills are firm In holding for a basis of
~ cents for three-yard sheeting and buy
ers have not yet increased their bids.
Other miscellaneous export trade has ruled
quiet
While the higher prices on cotton have
influenced mills in holding values stendier,
buyers OF goods have not been bidding on
basis commensurate with the higher
cost. Brown sheetings are quiet and, while
firmness is maintained on contract goods
spots can be had at slightly lower values
than contracts. Print cloths and converti-
bles were flrmer and a shade higher at
the close of the week Printed goods and
ginghAms are selling moderately.
General lines of domestics hold firm and
are in moderate request Fail River sold
but 5000 pieces Of print cloths in the week
and mill managers there are not increasing
their production. In fact. among mill man
ayers generally who handle gray cloths
there is growing inclination to limit the
output until prices improve.
General buying in the dry goods market
continues OF a hand-to-m mouth character at
first hands and the common effort is to do
business on as small stocks as possible.

MAYOR FOR REAL HOME RULE
Move is Now On for a Charter Revi.
sion Committee.
ALL TOWNS NOW FAVOR IT
Effort VIII BE Made to Put Through
the same Bill that Was Tried
at Last Session of the
Legislature.

The move for charter revision for Omaha
and home rule for the municipalities Of
Nebraska will receive the most hearty
support from Mayor Dahlman and he in
tends to get some OF the Douglas county
legislative delegation to introduce the
same bill that was tried at the last
session. W. f. Stoecker introduced a
bill last winter that was fought
through the house and died in the
senate. 1t is thought possible that the
same laws viii be asked for this year with
a greater chance Of success because the
smaller towns are anxious for changes
this year and will be more willing to make
concessions to Omaha.
"The bill we had last year" said Mayor
Dahman, provided for charter COM
mission Of fifteen, which should meet reg
ularly and consider suggestions from ciu-
zcns in general. This seems to be a good
idea and we will try to put it through
this time.
I'VE must do something to Increase the
revenues of the city and this years ex-
perience shows how badly we need a
change. There ought to be a possibility of
100000 that we have now. 1 have talked
with a number Of business men among the
members Of the Commercial club and the
Real Estate exchange and they are all
willing to go to Lincoln, IL necessary, and
help us get home rule. Everybody in

we think we may be able TO accomplish 1t
