An Invitation to Team Work.

With Greater omaha consolidation assured.
unless something slips a cog in the final stages,
we may voice the hope that the people OF the
annexed territory will at once join with us for
team work in pushing the enlarged metropolis
still further forward.
The best part OF the campaign for the con-
solidation bill has been It's comparative freedom
from ordinations and recrimina tions or mani
festations Of Ill will, calculated TO create lasting
antagonisms. While those engaged in the fight
on both sides have put in their best efforts 10
persuade the lawmakers to their way OF think
ing, the crossfire has not gotten further than
to charge one another with being animated by
selfish motives. But concedng the sincerity of
the opponents OF the merger, It will devolve
upon them to accept the situation and make
good on their protestations OF devotion to the
welfare OF their respective communities through
cooperative effort for Improvement all along
the line. With every one pulling on the rope AZ
the same time the wheels Of progress for
Greater Omaha must move steadily faster with
corresponding benefits 20 one and all.

Wheat Cron of ths Wnrld

The International Institute OF Agriculture
has just sent out from its headquarters at Rome
a preliminary statement on the area sown TO
winter crops (including wheat and rye) in the
northern hemisphere countries, and crop returns
for the southern hemisphere countries Tho
showing is very encouraging According to the
figures given the United States data In hands of
the institute, an Increase in area sown in the
northern hemisphere over last year is generally
reported especially in the United States, with
an increase OF 22 per cent in acreage and in In
dia, with an increase OF II per cent Plenty Of
moisture has fallen in all the countries. and
some report excess, but no damage to the
prospective crops.
The good reports on the crops In the southern
hemisphere are confirmed by the bulletin, es-
pecially the wheat yield Argentina, Chile Aus
tralia and New Zealand report a yield of 6s-
21S,151 quintals, or trltle under 114 0OO, 900
bushels. an increase of 60 per cent over the
1S1S-14 crop. The yield OF other crops in the
southern hemisphere is also large.
The significance Of this showing OF the
worlds production OF wheat and other food
stuffs is, that even with the continuance OF the
war in Europe. there is little likelihood OF the
worlds going hungry. Some planting will be
done In each of the countries engaged in the
war, so that an ample supply of food seems as
sured.

sirnifioant.

Observers of the political kaleidoscope
should not. overlook the significance of the
change recently announced In the Craftsmanship
Of the bullmOose national committee, by which
former-senator Joseph NJ. Dixon OF Montana is
eliminated by the resignation route, and lie sue
ceeded by soon-to-be-former-Co ngressman Victor
Murdoch OF Kansas. The reason given for the
Dixon resignation is inability to look after the
duties of the position without sacrificing private
interests, but no one would imagine Senator
Dixon giving up command IL he thought the bull
moose sun were rising instead OF setting.
Equally significant is the concealment OF the
source OF authority which has commissioned Mr..
Murdoch TO be the new chairman, for ordinarily
committee meeting is necessary To take such
action. So far is known, however, no such meet
ing has been held. except possibly of the handful
OF bosses-no. leaders-supposed to be in pos
session OF the remnants OF the party machinery.

Merchants, week a suOOsss.

While the bringing of retail buyers to Omaha
for the purpose of making spring purchases is
not novelty. the present event has been the
most successful of it's kind ever undertaken 1t
has seen a larger number OF buyers than on any
previous occasion, and the spirit that has pre-
vailed is proof that the advantages of buying in
Omaha are fully appreciated by the Merchants
doing business in the smaller towns. Hospitable
entertainment mingled with the facility for do
ing business has oemented more firmly the
friendship between the business men of the city
and OF the country, and means a continuation of
the pleasant relations thus established. omaha's
prestige as a distributing center for wares and
goods of all kinds is steadily growing, and it's
supremacy in it's territory is no longer ques-
toned. The spirit that has marked merchants
week" Is the spirit that will make Omaha a stiIl
greater market town.
