Mr. Mcfarland said he. never saw
such large wheat crops as the party
passed through on the way home.
"In Big Springs, Neb.," he said,
"one elevator is receiving 5000
bushels of wheat per day. The
manager of the elevator says there
is enough wheat tributary to Big
Springs to keep his elevator busy
two years at the rate of 5000 bush
els per day."

John w, Allen of Chicago has as
sociated himself with the Skinner
Packing company as superintendent
of the canned goods and sausage de-
partment The Aliens will move to
Omaha and will make their pcrma-
nent home in this city.
The Skinner Manufacturing COM
panv is today Omaha's largest na-
tional advertiser.
SINNERS canned meat products
will be distributed exclusively
through wholesale grocers throug;
the same sales channels that have
so successfully distributed Skinner
macaroni products.
The employment of Mr.. Allen by
the Skinner Packing company is
simply following out their policy OF
securing as the heads of each de-
partment of their business the most
expert operator it is possible to Sc
cure in this country.
Mr.. Allen entered the packing
business in this country with Ar
mour & Co. in their canned food
department. For 10 years he had
exclusive charge and management Of
the meat canning and sausage de-
partments of Sulzberger & Sons
company, now known as Wilson &
Co. For several years Mr. Allen
has worked as an expert in his line,
making a speciality of equipping and
organizing meat canning depart
ments for various companies. The
meat canning department of the
wonderfully successful firm of Oscar
Mayer & Company of Chicago, was
organized and installed by Mr.. Al
len, as was also the same depart
ments of the famous sausage makers,
l.. Frank & Sons company of Mil
waukee.
Mr.. Allen has investigated the
meat canning business from every
angle. having made extensive trips
for this purpose, for leading pack
ers, into foreign countries, spending
much time in Brazil, Mexico, and
England.
The modern plant Of the Skinner
Packing company, however, and the
possibilities of Omaha as the proper
location for the meat canning indus
try. has so attracted Mr.. Allen that
he has made permanent arrange
ment to devote his exclusive time
and energies to this special depart
pent for the Skinner Packing COM
pany.

Widespread Drouth Helped
Carry Corn Market Upward

Chicago. July 26.-Widespread drouth
and record breaking high prices on hogs
have carried the corn market this week
sharply upgrade. Compared with a week
ago, corn quotations this morning showed
SIS to CSC advance. oats had gained
NC to INC and provisions were dearer
by SIC to 81 60
Dry hot weather day after day and no
rain in sight, exercised a constant init
mdatng effect on the bears in corn and
likewise did lessenng of hog receipts
and successive overlapping Of all previous
hog values. Only absence of serious dam
age yet from lack Of rain appeared capable
of holding the corn market from q further
ascent. especially as there were signs
that car shortage was developing in the
n 'ddle west and that with the movement
of what having necessary preference the
arrivals of corn would be meager for
some time Besides word from Argentina
that new high price records for corn prob
ably had been esta blished there attracted
attention.
Oats climbed to the highest prices yet
this season. The bulge was due to pre-
dictons that the 1919 yield would be less
than the average. Assertions that the
government was re selling counted later
something of an offset.
Provisions derived their strength from
the upturns of grain and hogs.

TO BEAT
HIGH COST OF
CONSTRUCTION
Nebraska Contractors Form
Body to Minimize Overhead
Expenses by Cooperating
With Each Other.

In an effort to reduce the cost OF
construction by minimizing over
head expenses, local contractors
have organized under a charter from
the National Contractors associa-
ton, with headquarters in New
York, and, according to reports,
have succeeded in appreciably di-
minishing the cost of building in
the state.
J. J. Kelley, president of the ma
tional association, is principally re-
sponsible for the formation of a
local chapter of the national assoca-
ton in this city. He has spent more
than a month in Nebraska and sue
ceeded in enrolling practically every
Nebraska contractor i'll the associa-
ton.
By eliminating unnecessary esti-
mates, reducing the office force and
cooperating with fellow contractors
whenever possible, it is believed tina,
radical reduction in the cost of
building can be effected. 1t is esti-
mated that the average contractor
receives but one out of so contracts
which he estimates and bids upon.
This represents loss OF many mil
lions of dollars annually. By ellmi
mating this item of expense alone a
radical reduction i'll the cost of
building can be effected, declare
prominent contractors.
The national association at pres
ent comprises 1872 local branches in
every city in the country.
Mr.. Kelley will leave the city
Monday. In the near future he will
return to New York, where he ex-
poets to establish a national bonding
and insurance company, owned and
controlled by the contractors. This
mutual bonding and insurance COM
pany will play an important part in
the campaign to decrease the cost
of building, said Mr.. Kelley

RAILROAD HEAD
REPORTS CROPS
IN WEST LARGE
Finds Nebraska Garden Spot
of Entire Grain Belt
Eastern Farmers Are
Moving West.

"On the trip that | am now com
pletlng | have travelled the country
from Washington to the Pacific
coast and there is no portion over
which | have been that from an agri
cultural or business viewpoint looks
better" said J. L. Edwards, man.
ager of the agricultural section, traf
hc division, of the United States
railroad administration.
Nearly month ago Mr.. Edwards
started on a tour of the west and
central west. to get in close touch
with agricultural conditions and
obtain information relative to the
resources and crop prospects of the
grain belt.
In Omaha he visited the land de
partments of the Burlington and
Union Pacific, made a trip to the
Union stockyards, and addressed the
trade extension committee of the
Omaha Chamber of Commerce.
Speaking of Nebraska, Mr.. Edwards
said:
Il am just in from travelling
across the state from end TO end,
and | have no hesitancy in saying
that Nebraska has the appearance O.
a vast garden. Everywhere in the
state | hear reports Of good yields
of small grain, and as to corn, |
never saw it look better. OF course,
rain might be of some benefit at
this time, but the crop is not suffer
ing on account of lack of moisture.
Nebraska farmers are getting
good prices for their crops, and on
every hand there are indications that
they are prosperous. Farmers are
coming from states farther east,
where they have sold their high
priced land, and are investing in Ne
braska. They are buying larger
tracts of land than they previously
owned and generally they are good
farmers.
This state is getting a great many
new settlers and there will be still
more as the season advances and the
crops on the home farms are out of
the way. From what | can gather
land is selling at reason
ably low prices, but fear that there
is a growing tendency to kill the
goose that lays the golden egg by
boosting the prices to point where
the land will be out of the reach of
the average prospective buyer.
Farther west there are few dry
spots, but taking into consideration
The entire agricultural area of the
west and central west, it is insignif-
can't. As whole, it does not
amount to as much as drouth in
one county in one of the eastern
states
At a meeting yesterday Mr.. Ed
wards explained to the Chamber of
Commerce the governments meth
ID of putting the landless man onto
he rich manless land of the central
portion of the country, asserting
hat it is the purpose to bring under
as large an area as pos
ible. The farmer is to be encour-
lged and through agents is to be in
tructed as to the character of the
oil, its adaptability for raising GER
ain crops and how and when to
liant these crops.
