BUILDING PERMITS
GAIN IT PER CENT
Big Increase in Spite Of Fact that
Year Before Recorded the
Fontenelle Permit.
ALL SORTS OF STRUCTURES

Omaha's building operations for 1915
showed an increase of II per cent over
1914 The total improvements last year
was $5.SS5.OO5; previous year. $4.61O.456, an
increase OF $774.54s.
In view of the fact that the year yielded
no permit approaching the Fontenelle
hotel permit of 1914. the city building de-
partment looks upon the showing as a
strong indication of the city's prosperity
during the last twelve months.
The largest permits Of the year were
for the Grain Exchange building. Rose
building. Blackstone hotel. Ford Motor
company's plant, world-Herald building
and First Presbyterian church.
The increase Of the year was spread
over all classes of buildings. There were
100 residences built at a cost of $2.o2s, $50
and sixty-two store and office buildings.
The other large buildings of the year
were: B. L. Danforth. brick apartments,

in great force with the coming OF better
prices. At the same time, IL Is to be
remembered that the corn crop OF 1915
being somewhat soft, was scarcely fit TO
market before the first of the year, while
1t is also thrue that on account OF the
softness of the corn which made 1t late
in maturing for the crib. farmers got
a late start in husking, with the conse-
ouence that thousands Of bushels are stu
I'm the fields and the farmers in many
parts of the state are stu husking every
day.
Postal Receipts.
A. an index Of general prosperity OF
the city, postoffice receipts are aiNiAyS
looked to- The postsl receipts forH the
year at the Omaha office we're a,fse'oSS'
as against 81. S91, 1854 last year. This shows
a. gain of slO4.s5 and makes the biggest
receipts the Omaha postoffice has ever
had.
New industries sprung into being dur
ing the year and some old ones increased
their capital and expanded to the extent
that between these two factors. a totai
of 81 .oS6, 5000 more capital is working thar
a year ago. and 4ls more jobs have beer
made for employees.
Bank CIearings Gain.
The gain Of sS5.OsO.O9s In bank clear
ings over the clearings Of q year ago. II
one of the big items indicating the marcf
of business activity of the city. Th'
clearings this year came close to th'
billion dollar mark.
The receipts of live stock. totAiling a.
they do, 7,17l.27s head all told. reveal
higher water mark in the history OF tn
live stock business in the metropolis
These receipts for the year mean lOl,1S
carloads.
This would make 4,O71 trains Of twenty
five cars each; or one train 1858 mile
| long.
In the receipts OF sheep the Omaha mar
ket was approximately 1,sOo.OOO ahead o
Kansas City. The gain in the receipt
of horses over last year was APPROX
mately 11,oOO.
The proportion of gain in manufactuI
ing, jobbing, bank clearings and build
ing permits, shows a reasonable similar
ity, or eveness of advance that indicate
the universally of the prosperity in a.
lines in the city.

Omaha Record for Year 1915 Told in Cold Figure
SALES BY PACKERS
GROW $G,6OO,OOO
Tremendous Gain Over Last Year
Made by Packing Houses as
Result Of War Orders.
BIG BUSINESS IN BY.PRoDUCTs

An increase in total sales Of approx
mately S.5C000o over the year 1914. ia
the record that has been established by
South Side packing houses during the
year 1915. According to statistics COM
piled from original sources by Publicity
Manager f, v. Parrish Of the Omaha
Commercial club the total value OF pro-
ducts handled by the four big packing
plants, Arrnours. swifts', Cudahy's and
Morris, and the independents for the
year just closing will approximate St2i,-
100000. The total record for the year 1915
Is Sll3,0oO0o0. About $2,500O0O represents
the business done by the independents
packers.
Except for the big gain In receipts and
the enormous amount OF stock handled
In the South Side the year has been less
favorable. Fewer men have been en-
ployed by the packers. The four big
packing concerns employed 6,422 men dur
ing the year IN place Of 1873 OF last year.
Correspondingly but SS,Oei.sss were paid
out In wages while the payroll for the
year 1914 amounted TO S6,57O.s5o.
War Orders Bring Boom.
The big gain in receipts Is attributed
principally 20 the vast business resultant
rom the great war that II now going ON
IN Europe. The prospects would have been
truly brilliant had not American sales
been restricted by warning countries ana
much OF the products lost at sea War
orders In all kinds OF meats ca well as
by-products were numerous.
Only In the hog and calf departments
OF the live stock killings has there been
depression. The fall in the hog record
is slight while the packers are becoming
opposed to the killing Of calves. The big
gains recorded in the slaughter Of sheen
ana cattle are themselves a mark worthy
OF notice. As rapidly as the stock yards
market rose as live stock center OF the
country the packers kept pace and bought
cattle and sheep with alacrity. The rec.

Cause of Falling OFF,

This falling off In receipts OF nearly
io'VVO'VO bushels is due to two causes
year ago last summer when the Euro
pean war had gotten we'll under way and
prices went far above 81 per hushel for
wheat farmers rushed their holdinEs To
market. During the last few months and
atter the crop OF the year was harvested.
prices on not only wheat, but all other
KINDS OF grain, remained low. As a re-
SUIT farmers held their grain. Now, how
ever, with wheat far in excess of 81 per
bushel and other grains correspondlngIy
nigh, there Ia a heavy movement. with
the result that indications are that this
year receipts will be a record
Another cause for the falling off in re-
celpts, It is asserted. Is due to the fact
that the corn crop of the year Just closed
was slow in maturing. and is now Just
starting to market. In the fall Of 1914.
corn mstured early and by the first OF
the following year much OF Il had been
sold. 1t Is estimated tnat at this time
fully 90 per cent OF the 1915 corn crop is
In the hands Of the farmers.
As Primary Market.
As a primary market, Omaha attracts
the attention OF the central west and is
constantly extending it's territory Dur
ing the last year 1t has gone farther west
into Wyoming and Colorado. farther
north into the Dakotas and has held Eta
territory on the east and south. il prac-
ticslly controls the trade as far east as
central Iowa and on the south well down
into Missouri and Kansas.
or the wheat handled here during the
last nine months. a large portion OF II
has been taken for export, going through
gulf ports. On account OF the facilities
for getting II TO the seaboard. prices have
been right along with Minneapolis and
quite IN line with Chicago In fact they
have been so close 10 those OF Chicago
that a great deal OF wheat shipped from
far western elevators has stopped off and
been sold here
During the last year. for grain coming
to Omaha, members OF the Omaha Grair
exchange paid out close TO $4,000 900
money that has gone back to farmers
OF Nebraska and adjoining states.
Early this year the Omaha Grain ex-
change win move into It's own building
an eight-story brick and stone. steel con
struction building. costing IN excess Of
$3.50. 900. and located at Nineteenth and
Harvey streets. With the exception Of

building will be occupied by grain deal,

Every part Of the local packing busi-

have become used TO the high prices that
resulted in the 100000 gain in packer
receipts a year ago and are settling down
TO the new regime. Whether conditions
viii materially change is a matter OF
speculation.
