A movement is on in Omaha looking to
ward creating hay market in the city

There is some talk OF having this es-

change. There is also talk of establish
Ing hay market square aside from the
grain exchange. Either way that Is feast
bic is to be given consideration by the
committee. At present hay is handled i'm
the city only by individual dealers. and
no system Of grading is followed, so that
the producer gets only what the buyer
may think the hay Is worth, In other
words, the grading Of the hay is left to
the individual Judgment Of the buyer
who wants a load and sees fit TO make
an offer.
