FARMERS ARE HOLDING OUT Omaha may face a potato famine this winter. A canvass of the com- mission men who have been in the | habit of storing thousands of bushels discloses the fact that only one has | 1aid away a supply of the tubers, That potatoes row costing the housewife about 50 cents a peck will jump to | 75 cents)is the opinion of the com- mission men, The tubers are now wholesaling for $1.75 per bushel and | are extremely hard to get. Both the wholesaler and the com- mission men agree that the high price of potatoes has made it impossible to put away any of the tubers, Only one commission man in the city has put up any amount of this essential veg- etable. In former years the commis- sion men and brokers stored thous- ands of bushels and held them for the winter months when the prices were up, That the farmers have plenty of potatoes is the general opinion among the commission men, but they assert the farmer is holding his supply in order to obtain higher prices. Another reason they give for the scarcity is that it is extremely hard to get cars for the transportation of the “spuds.” Starts Propaganda Here The safety first movement has struck Omaha. W. H. Cameron of Chicago, secretary and treasurer of the National Safety Council, is- in Omaha, and appeared before the Omaha “Manufacturers’ association members at'a meeting at the Com- mercial club rooms today. He organ- ized forty raflréad men, manufactur- ers and business men in a meeting in the Union' Pacific building Thursday, He will also probably appear before the :Commercial club soon. |In this movement the safety propaganda is ‘spread widely through bulletins and literature with a view to getting the principles put directly into practice by foremen in the various manufacturing concerns and in other occupations where there is dangerous machinery or: danger of any kind, KEEP LOOKING YOUNG It's Easy—1If You Know Dr. The real tones and phrasing of the world’s vocal artists, the exact reproduction of every instru posers of all nations is heard only on a Grafonola.
