CONDITION OF OMAHA'S TRADE 5 Reason for Talking Hard Times in Nobraska, COUNTRY COLLECTIONS HOLD UP WELL Merchants Generally Pursuing a Very servative Polley—Prospects Favor an Active Movement of Goods Later in the Year. A week ago it was noted that there was uvidently a more confident feeling among business men and it is safe to say that that feeling still exists and perhaps in asome. what greater degree, Some business men are still looking upon tho dark side, but their number is growing smaller as the sum- mer wears away. KEvery one appears to realize the fact that there is no real cause for hard times in Nebraska and that thus far at least it has been s case of ‘‘more scared than hurt.” A jobber remarks: “The splendid crops of tho past two years to- gether with the high prices paid for farm produce have put ivebraska farmers in aplendid condition. At the present time the prospects for the coming crop could hardly be improved. With splendid crops behind us and brilliant prospects before us the job- bing business of Omaha ought to be good.” However, business is not what jobbers would like to see 1t. Every one is holding back and waiting to see “how things are coming out.” 7Tho retail merchants are or- dering nothing that they do not absolutely have an immediato demand for and are re- tucing their stocks to the lowest point pos- sible. 'The jobbers are generally doing the same thing. Thero are today buyers for local houses still remaining in the city who have been accustomed, in previous years, to spend the month of July buying goods in the easf- orn markets. If the reason for the deluy is askod the answer is invariably “we are wait- ing to sce how things are coming out.” s dolay in huying is noticed and freely commented upon in eastern market centers, The New York Bulletin remarks that in the dry goods line buying for fall requirement which ought to hive made good progress by now. has been indulged in on a most con- servative scale and the experiences of both commission houses and jobbers so far this season are far from being equal to the average experiences in previous years. Reports from various sections of the country show that the actual consump- tion of dry goods by the public has not fallen off “proportionately with the short age in the demand at wholesale, so that the (pr:-wul condition is less the result of an ar- rested consumption than of u changed pol- icy, voluntary or enforced, on the part of distribut Buyers are deferring their purchases in the large markets jus; as long as possible, and where compeiled to pur- chase are peoviding for immediate require- ments only. In the meantime they are sell- ing all they can, thus contracting their lia- bilities, which is a hopeful feature of the situation. Meanwhile manufacturers aro finding the changed conditions moro or less embarrassing, and a number of them have within the past few weeks closed their fac- _ptories, although tho extent of this move- ment has been exaggerated in many quar- tors. The situation is the same in the grocory line. Jobbers the country over are carrying small stocks. It is said in New York that *" exceptionally fow orders have been placed for canned goods, dried fruits and other com- modities, for whick advance engagements are usually quite heavy during the months oF Jund and July. Speculations and opera- tions bordering upon speculative lines have been avoided as far as possible. Market con- ditions, that would ordinarily prompt liberal buying, have had little or no weight against the general determination to carry no larger stocks or order ahead to greater extent than well defined wants dictated. ‘Ihe jobbers and retsilers of the west aro all following the same general policy. They are reducing stocks and delayiog purchase: When confidence revives they must nece: sarily become heavier buyers of various lines of goods, sifie, from all accounts, their stocks are insufticient at present to meet the requirements of a brief period of active busi ness. Loeal jobbers are predicting a great rush for goods when business once starts. Some day Nebraska merchants will crawl out of their cyclone cellars and discover that the financial storm has passed and then will commence the race to stock up agam. It may not bo an easy matter for every mer- chant to get just what he wants, just when he wants it, as there will be so many urgent and pressing demands to be satistiod. Tho vetaller who pays his bills and does not attempt to avord meeting his obligations on the plea of hard times, will be the one whose demands every jobber will bo anxious to fill promptly. A decreaso 1n the clearings of Omaha dur- 1ng the past week was anticipated and that 1t reached 18 per cont was no surprise. The Jobbing trade during July of last year was vhenomenally large, owing to the fact that the lateness of the spring caused much of the business that usually comes in June to be carried over to July. “Had there been no 4yry of hard times this year, the clearings this month might even then havo fallen be- hind the corresponding month last year. AS DUN SEES IT, Worst of the Storm 18 Oyer, and Bus 13 Recovering Steadily. Mr. W. H. Roberson, Omaha's manager of R. G.

Fruit that will stand shipment by mail in a close tin can must possess splendid keeping qualities, Ioastern papers are saying a good deal about the varioas secret nostrums which are claimed to incrense the yiela of butter. Tho Agricultural department of the government has recently issued a bullotin exposing these frauds which have been palmed off onto the farmers of the wost to no small extent. The butter industry of the United States is of immense importAnce. In round num- bers there are from $5,000,000 to 815,000,000 worth sold annually in each state. In 1800 Ilinois produced 95,000,000 pounds, worth about §20,000,000; Wisconsin, 35,000,000 pounds, worth £0,000,000; Towa, 100,000,000 pounds, worth $21,000,000; Minnesota, 42,- 000,000 pounds, worth $%,000,000; Michigan, 40,000,000 pounds, worth $7,500,000. 1T 15 quito_probabie, says the Minnoapolls Produce Bulletin, that wo shall have protty cheap potatoes this year. Of course a great many farmers wero led to put in the crop by the extraordinary high prices which pro- vailed last year, and up to the present time in '3, There is yot, however, some oppor- tunity for crops becoming damaged, but the probabilities are that tho majority of the yield will pull through and be all right for an immense harvest. It was not many days ago that tomatoes were scarce in Omaha, but they were not to be had. The growers in Illinois and some other sections think that Chicago is the only market in the world and they ignoro every other point so long as that market will take their stuff. When Chicago is full they dump their surplus into Omaha and other smaller cities. Now tomato growers have glutted Chicago and all of a suaden turn their shipments here with the result that this mhrket is swamped. An Omaha commission man recently re- ceived a letter from a farmer who had an idea that he would like to ship direct to a commission house, asking what were the terms on. which consignments were handled. The commission merchant answered 10 per cent.” By return mail came another lotter saving: “Do you mean that you will send me 10 per cont in return for what I ship and keep the balance?” *“That rooster can’t fool me; he is 1d shipper and .no farmer; he has been ;y?[)lflc to Kansas City, I'll beta dollar,” said the commission mau, *The comm.ission business isa much greater thing than most people realize,” said a fruit dealer.. ‘‘There is no jobbing line in the city that pays the railroads, the express companies and the city draymen as much money as the fruit and produce commission men. - 'The wholesale grocers may handle more cars but they do not pay as high rates and the total in money is not as large. The minimum on an iced car of fruit from Cali- fornin to Omaha is #425. One fruit salesman alone in five weeks this summer sold Cali- fornia fruit that paid freight charges amounting to $9,000.” he number of poor eggs that are coming mto this market at tho present time is sur- prising. One commission house a few days ago received a shipment of eighteen cases that were ail spoiled, and the inspector ordered them dumped into the river. Iivery case that arrives contains more or less of spoiled cggs. While the warm weather is to be blamed for eggs not keeping better, shippers could save a good deal if they would send in their cggs as fast as they got them and not wait until several cases have accu- mulated. Some shippers hold their eggs waiting for some one to offer them a price on track, and then if they do not get what they want for them they ship to a commis- sion house, with the result that there will be a heavy loss from spoiled eggs. The only way 1o avoid this loss or reduce it to a mini- mum 1s to walt for nothing, but keep the ©ggs coming, & case at A time, s fast as they are brought in by the farmers. he name ‘“orange” is from the Latin aurum, meaning gold or of gola color, says an exchunge. The fruit was originally a small, bitter berry, about the size of a com- mon early Richmond chorry, and very seedy. It has been cultivated in Hindostan™ from a very remote period, and was taken from that country to Arabia and Persia in the eighth or ninth centuries. Itis said to have re- ived little or no attention from cultivators of fruits in cither of the countries last men- tioned above prior to the beginning of tne tenth century, there being o tradition that it was a “‘cursed” fruit sent by Mohammed to destroy the unfaithful. In the tenth and eleventh centuries the horticulturists of Oman and Syra began the cultivation of the treo in earnest, the fruit growing under the name of “bigarade.”” By the end of the twelfth century it becume abundant in all the countries of the levant, the returning soldiers of the cross (crusaders) ‘bringing it with them on their return from Jerusalem. It was well known. but not ex- tol ll\'nlgflcullivnlml in either Italy, Spain or France before the middle of the sixteenth century, 400 years after its introduction into the first named country, the hindrance being o survival and an addition to the old anti- Mohammeadan tradition, viz.: That the use of the frult would cause the partaker to en. roll himself with the religions of Islam whether he desired or no. The Spaniards finally attempted and succeeded in cultivat- ing it in their West Indian colonies, and from there it found its way into Florida, Central America, Mexico und California, always improving in size and flayor. 11 country shippers could realize how much trouble and annoyauce was caused by care- lessness in weighing the produce which they ship to market they would certainly take more pains to be acourate. The other day n local commission man received a shipment of throe barrels of butter, the gross weight of which was ten pounds less than the net weight given by the shipper. The difference in the wu&: made & difforence in the re- turns of $16. When the commission man discovered the discrepancy he had the but- ter and the packages weighed and on-differ- ent scales 80 that there could be no possibil- ity of any mistake, but he could not make the weights hold out with those given by the shipper. In spite of all that the com- mission man may do or say, he will never be able to make the “shipper believe but what he was swindled. Some shippers by some means or oiher get a good deal of water in the butier packages, perbaps they puta plece of ice on the butter. Of course when the commission man receives the pack- age he takes out the butter only and weighs up the pack wnb;:hlnd L8 o canpot afford to bay butter prices for anything but butter.
