tables and all sorts of produce. The re-
suit Of the commission enterprises has been

years. II has resulted in establishing this
city as the big commission center for pro-

dozen brokers negotiate the shipment
OF carloads of produce from distant points
to this city and for hundreds Of miles past
it. Several dozen jobbers distribute tons
Of vegetables and fruits in this city and
throughout the state and adjoining states.
The work Is systemauzed. 1t Is smooth
and friendly and immensely prosperous.
Word will go out that will bring other
additions TO the colony Of commission peo-
pie and the business will ever increase.
Probably the commerce largely will be the
factor in putting the population Of Omaha
and the population of the rural districts
way up to the height Of all hopes in sew
ersl short years
Business Grows Naturally,
Unnoticed by the general public the COM
mission business has been growing sheerly
by the natural genius of those who have
a part in Il and by the natural opportuni-
ties through location and facilities that are
held forth here.
According TO M. ID. Foy, representative
of the Limoneira company of Colorado, an
average of from $50 to 200 Of fruits
of all kinds are to be found on the rail
road tracks of this city every day. Mr.
Foy declares the f'uit business, in which
he is a broker, aside from all other lines
of commission merchantng, has developed
$50 per cent inside of five years.
There are three clearly defined classes
Of dealers in fruit and produce in the city
The brokers, VINO deal strictly in carload
lots; the commission jobbers who buy
outright large supplies and sell to retail
ers, and the barterers, who purchase direct
from the growers from the public market
and sell direct to the consumers.

For the present year the increase In re-

Department of Justice.
In the activities OF the Department OF
Justice the city Of Omaha also takes quite
a prominent part. The expense of admins
terng justice through the federal courts
with headquarters here is close to $50 900 a
year, although in 1909 the figure was some
what less than in 1905. This was because
Of the decreased number Of jury trials Of
first Importance.
In this connection it is interesting to note
that convictions are the rule in a great
majority of the cases tried in the federal
courts, whose juries are drawn almost en-
tirely from the farming community Dur
ing 1909 the convictions numbered thirty,
four, as against five acquittals in dstric

Howard to jackson streets, and on How
ard and Jackson streets, in that section
are ranged the jobbers. The public mar
kst Is located at Eleventh and jackson
streets In this district Is confined the
business that foots up TO thousands Of dol
lars a day and relates to potatoes, toma-
toes, cabbage and pears. etc.
About five years ago the city author
tiles decided a public market was a thing
needed absolutely in the city. Up to that
time the city was being overrun by ped
dlers wagons and barterers. Therefore a
building for the market place was erected
at Thirteenth and Capitol avenue.
This location quickly proved to be a bad
one. and the produce dealers naturally
sought better quarters, or resorted to the
obnoxious method Of peddling. The streets
were found to be too narrow for the many
wagons at the public market place and re-
lief was absolutely needed. Then tran
spired a concerted move by the commission
jobbers to get a building in the proper To-
cation. They purchased the lot at Eleventh
and jackson streets, and built their own
public market. The step has proven to
have been q most excellent one.
Daily the retail dealers and individual
consumers in great throngs gather at the
public market and make purchases which
otherwise would be transacted through
peddlers. The produce comes from farming
sections throughout Nebraska, Wyoming,
Colorado and Kansas.
Brokers Have Big Field.
For the commission brokers the limits of
the city itself are all that restrict their
operations. There are eight brokers in all,
namely J. d. Plummer, h. c. Hunter the
California Fruit Distributors company, the
California Fruit Growers association, H. d.
Foy, Strait, h. J. Clifford and A. U. CLANCY.
1t is reported that Crawford, Alliance,
Hemmingford, Gordon, Rushville, Hay
Springs and Chadron are the best potato
producing centers in the middle west,
sending apparently inexhaustible quantities
of the vegetables to Omaha for distribution
continually.
The season for vegetable shipping lasts
in its highest stage, from the middle OF
August TO about the middle OF October
Those OF the brokers who specialize in
fruits get their products mostly from Colo
rado Utah, Idaho and California.

POstoffice Increases Receipts,
Getting back to figures when people
realize that the Omaha postoffice showed
a growth OF approximately $1,000 900 in the
money business Of the year 1903 over 1905
they can well take some pride in the fact
stamp sales for the last year increased
almost 10000 over the previous year
and stamp sales are considered a real ba-
rometer Of the growth Of business in a
