He sald in part: “Examine a map of the United States and you will find that the so-called corn belt 1s fenced in, 80 to speak—the eastern part of Nebraska and Kansas forming the western boundary. With the ever-increasing consumption of this golden grain those who own & small section of this cornfield may congratulate themselves. 1 predict that it will be sel- dom that corn will sell at less than 20 cents a bushel. Notwithstanding the high prices corn is going into consumption, and 1 belleve that the holdings in first hands will not be more than 500,000,000 bushels, against normal stock of 600,000,000 to 700,- 000,000 bushels.” Smith on Irrigation, 8. C. Smith of Beatrice spoke on “Some Impressions of the Last Irrigation Con- gress and the Reservoir System,” saylng ““This assoclation at its first convention en- dorsed the present irrigation law. This fact is mentioned to encourage further resolu- tions along desired lines. The last irri- gation congress was a distingulshed body of men, consisting of congressmen, govern- ment representatives and business men. They were familiar with the subject of ir- rigation. It was the judgmeat of the more thoughtful men that the passage of the present law did not relieve them of re- spomsibillty and that a campaign of educa- tion 15 as important now as hefore the law was passed.

The | land to be occupled by the homesteader is but 160 acres, so that the only advantage to be directly galned is through ‘occupying the land. Our thanks are due to those who forced its passage, at the head of whom I recognize Theodore Roosevelt. “The present leasing bill is likely to nulliy the law, as it embraces in its terms all of the government land. It is {ncumbent upon all citizens to see that the irriga. tion law has a fair trial. It has been dem- onstrated that all smooth, arable, arid land can be reclaimed. The government owns over 535,000,000 acres of land, and it is estimated that at least 100,000,000 acres are ® eptible to irrigatio General Stock Interests. “The General Stock Interests” was the toast responded to by W. J. C. Kenyon, general manager of the stock yards. He sald in part: ‘““There is one thing I want to say to the real is that the growth of South Omaha is due to their work. It is as easy to sell lots for $E00 as it 1s at $50. Five years after South Omaha w: blished we returned to the assessor $1.750,000; this year the assessed value is $16,000,000. Of the packing Interests Mr. Kenyon sald: “In the next five years we will pass Chi- cago. It the state you gentlemen can give us great assistance 1f you will help us get busines: Omaha is not ‘fernnist’ the en- tire state. The packing houses are part of the e of Nebraska. They were put here to handle the stock from this part of the country. These industries have s0 in- creased that we employ 24.9 per cent of all the wage earners in the state. I am not golng to burden you with figures, but I want to call your attention to the fact that South Omaha is a part of the ate, and when legislation affecting its ine tries broached in Lincoln you affect the greatest interest in the state.” Bouguet 1o the Hog. “The Apostrophe to the Hog—The Hog Rules,” by Alex G. Charlton, was the hit of the day. The address was delivered to a hog—one especially arranged and prepared. | HAYDEN BROS. HUNDREDS OF IMMENSE BARGAI SILKS.

He asked how many would contribute 35 to pay the expenses of a press bureau. The suggestion was recelved with cheers and $70 was ralsed to start the fund. The president appolnted S. C.

SANTA CLAUS IN BIG DEMAND Christmas Goods Sell in Unusually Larce Quantities, Jobbers Say. Judging from the demand that is being experienced for all kinds of holiday gosls Omaha jobbers say Christmas is to be more generally celebrated this year than ever before in this section of the country. One indication of the fact is the enormous de- mand for Christmas trees. Estimates place the number sold up te date at over 10,000. | | Over three carloads of holly, or about 350 cases, have also been sold out of Omaha, end, including all the different kinds of wreathing, it is claimed that 40,000 to 60,- 000 yards have been shipped out within the last week or ten days. These figures are for in excess of those of any former yea and wholesalers say that although they an Ucipated an enormous trade, they have #old stock than they expected. s have also had a big run, as from five o s'x carloads have been Bhipped to h n'ry within the last week. Apples 120 sold freely and the demand for been fully equal to the supply. | Cranberries have come In for thelr usual | share cf attention in spite of the fact that they mand fancy prices.
