Festive Birds on the Market at Two
Bits Per Pound.
APPLES AT REASONABLE PRICES

from Twenty-Five Cents Per Peck
Upwards-POrk Makes
Advance.

No. l turkeys can be had for a quarter
a pound next week for the Thanksgiving
dinners. according TO the promise of some
of the dealers. 1t is stated. however.
that they will be none too plentiful at
that. They are being shipped TO Omaha
from Kansas City. where they have been
gathered from the farms and ranches OF
Kansas and Texas.
The dry-picked turkeys will sell at a
quarter. while the scalded will be about
3 cents cheaper Scalded towel is always
cheaper because It does not keep as well
in stock. The theory is that when scalded
the pores Of the skin remain open and
the flavor of the bird is not as well pre-
served as in the dry-picked.
Ducks are promised at 20 cents a pound
for the week. Geese are quoted at IS
cents.
Cranberries of good quality are selling
at IA cents a pound. and celery can be
had two punches for a nickel. That
completes the principal features Of .
Thanksgiving dinner within a reasonable
price.
Beef is holding quite steady. There Is
an inclination on the part OF the buyers
to keep away from the beef market on
account OF the foot and mouth disease
scare. in spite OF the fact that repeated
inspections have shown the stock in
Omaha to be in excellent shape. This
tendency has thrown a greater demand
upon pork. Pork loins are IS cents a

Washington, March 13.-Deliberation on puzzling features of the proposed interstate trade commission bill today occupied the Senate subcommittee on interstate commerce for several hours The committee did not complete it's work and probably will not be ready to report to the full committee until sometime next week. The House measure on the same subject still is being considered by the Attorney Gen eral, but it probably will be before the interstate commerce committee early next week. The committee is ex- pected to report it to the House so that discussion of the trust legisla- ton may begin before many more days Of the session pass into history.

TRADE CONTINUES ON THE QUIET SIDE Weather Conditions Are
 Responsible SUMMARY OF WEEK Perceptible Gain in Variety of Lines of Industry Which Is Taking
 Up Some of the Surplus
 of Labor

New York, March 1s.-Bradstreets to- morrow will say:
 Trade is still on the quiet side. For this the winters varying weather condi- tions. conservatism born of recent years hand-to-mouth buying, the late Easter season and uncertainty as to future busi- ness legislation. are all held varyingly re- sponsihle. The predominant feeling is that the opening of spring will act as stimu- lus to trade and industry.
 Weather conditions or the effects Of recent meteorological events still bulk large in the undeniably slow opening up of business.
 There is perceptihle gain in variety of lines of Industry, which is taking up some surplus of labor. It is likewise be- coming evident that some Qf the talk of unemployment outside of Seasonal lines was exaggerated.
 For the week: Bank clearings, $s,241,- 2ls,ooo, a decrease of IA per cent from last year; failures, 275. against &9 last year: wheat exports. 3.764,2OS bushels, against 2,731,547 last year."

These corporations were able to make very large deposits in the national banks
The Growth of Money Power

These corporations were able to make very large deposits in the national banks.
 The Growth of Money Power
 Two or three years after the United States Steel corporation was organized 1t was observed that cities which in the past were not conspicuous for financial strength were becoming large money cen ters. That was especially true of Pitts burg, where money in plenty is obtained for those who need capital in large amounts. In this city the growth of Min neapolis as Q financial center is spoken of at times as one of the most gratifying of the many phenomena of our recent busi- ness life. Kansas City is also forging ahead as money center. The growth therefore. of the New York banks within the past 20 years has not been exclusive It is reflected in the growth of banking institutions in other parts of the country and is strikingly emphasized in the pre- eminent position Boston now occupies as a city whose banking resources are. per capita, greater than those of any other city of the country, considerably greater than those of New York.
 Not National Banks Alone
 A few days ago there was published report which set forth the condition of trust institution in New York. Only n- directly does the national banking law af- feet trust institutions. Yet this one was able to report that 1t possessed resources aggregatlng a little over s200,0OO,0O0 so that in this respect 1t Is surpassed by only one national bank in the United States. This has been growth of only 20 years. It was observed among the de- tails of this report that there was an item of $17,O9000O which undoubtedly rep resented the relation of this institution to it's branch institution in London.
 The record made by this institution is resources. Trust institutions all over the United States have been created and have attained great growth since is93 when the national banks of New York city began to demonstrate their capacity to cultivate banking business upon very large scale. Not only in New York, out in other large financial centers. there has been proportionate and in many cases sympathetic increase in the influence and resources of trust institutions with the like increase of national banks. The reports made by the national banks to the comptroller of the currency of their condition upon the 4th of March will undoubtedly prove to be the mos; inter- esting and valuable of the reports made by these institutions since the panic year of 1907. When the meaning behind these statistics Is understood the federal re- serve board will have valuable data to assist it ID perfecting the new organixa- tion.

New York, March 13.-Dun's review to- morrow will say:
 "Considerable irregularity still character izes the business situation and statistics of trade movements are conflicting As measured by bank clearings. the volume of transactions continues smaller than year ago, there being a loss this week of 1.9 per cent, while gross earnings of railroads reporting for February were 7S per cent smaller than in the corresponding period of 1913 On the other hand, fur ther substantial reduction occurred in the number of idle freight cars, the gain in the unified tonnage of the principal iron and steel interest last month surpassed expectations and there was a decrease In surplus stocks of copper. Current re- ports from leading centers, however, are lacking in uniformity, and indicate that the effects of the recent storms have not entirely disappeared
 Failures this week are 341, against 3o9 the corresponding week last week. Fail ures in Canada number B. against 35 last year"

.NEBISH FORGING tt. FRONT
More Than Forty Iowa Families Sc
lect Land in That Vicinity for
Future Homes More Coming
G. E. BR1NEGAR BOOSTS COUNTY

| There is perhaps no northern Min
nesota district which is progressing
alta more rapid rate than is that of
Nebish, twenty miles north of this
city, and during the past year no
less than forty families have taken up
their future homes in that vicinity.
For this great influx one man is
to great degree responsible, being
G. E. Brinegar, general agent for the
Nebish Land company, which owns
considerable property in that coun-
try. He began his northern Mime
sofa boosting a little more than a
year ago.
II have shown the land to more
than forty men, said Mr.. Brinegar
while in Bemidji. with the excep-
ton of two, every one bought, many
of them later doubling their orders
when they realized the value of the
property. Nearly all of the people
settling near Nebish are from Iowa
and our plan is to hold an annual
Iowa Day of the northern Mime
sofa farmers from that state. I have
great faith in the future of northern
Minnesota and never do I have to
misrepresent conditions to make d
sale. A man sees the land and he
readily understands why crops of all
kinds are doing successfully here
It is the place for well-to-do renters
who wish to own their own farms +"
Brinegar has farm of 100 acres
near the outskirts of Nebish and it is
his intention to move there after the
first of the year, build substantial
buildings and conduct stock farm
along the most modern lines He re-
sides at Thayer, Iowa, where he is in
the drug store business. His enter
ing into the land business was caused
by IL health and he was ordered to
live more of an outdoor life:
He was accompanied here On his
last trip b. J. c. Fisher, also CT
Thayer, who IS IN the bridge and
building department Of an Iowa rail-
roads: Mr.. Fisher purchased a farm
TAT Nebish- and will move lis family
there next spring, having decided to
farm in the future. Mr. Fishers son
Carl has also purchased Beltraml
county land.
"The land here will produce all
crops, timothy, clover, alfalfa, blue
grass, wheat, oats and corn as we'll
as on any of the 1925 per acre land
of Iowa." said Brinegar
