BUSINESS MEN SEE

Surprise Each Other by Igno
rance of Big- Industry.
ONE LEARNS HORSE 13 NOT MULE
Much Information did 130 manu
facturers and business men of Omaha
secure about the stock yards and
packing- Industries In their visit to
the South Side yesterday noon.
Each man In the party was sur
prised at the ignorance of his neigh
bor as to the details of a giant In
dustry that has thrived for over a
quarter of a century at hit very door.
Thus Charles R. Sherman adm'.t'ed it
was the first time h had ever been It
the Exchange building in South Omaha.
II was glad to be there, of course, and
waa tickled by all th big wonderful
I things he taw. but until the Manufac
turers' association chartered two special
street csrs to tak th crowd down there
for a few hours of sight-seeing, he bsd
never felt he hsd t me to go.
"That's a funny look ng horse," aaid
Fred H. Knapp, former president of the
Manufacturers' sesoc'atlon, as th gang
was filing t! rough th hsnds-me new
barns that are tho marvel of th wast.
Th'rks Nu t a lloree.
"That auro la a funny looking horse,"
he repeated, and when his friends saw
he was so much Interested they glanced
In the same direction and found him
atsrtnsT wide-eyed at a big blsck mule.
! Francis A. Welch, although b ha been
In Omaha over two years ss sa'esmanager
for th BherwIn-WIUUms company, sheep
ishly admitted he had never born It
South Omaha. He hadn't the si shiest
Idea where to take a afreet car to get
out after th picnic was over, and while
tramping around through th cattle yards
he was very much Interested In lesrnlng
"how they get the meat from t' e cows."
Others, seeing a litter of speckled pig
twelve hours old wabbling sfter their
mother, were horror-struck to learn t at
these will be killed so that the mother
can be fattened for slaughter.
('niv line Five Iea.
But then there waa a real curiosity In
the big horae barna. Thla waa a black
cow with five legs. The cow Is truly a
freak, with four perfect legs, and than
a fifth growing from the shoulder wl.h
a huge gnarled and clumay cloven hoof
dangling half way to the knee of her
sound leg on ths right side,
"Don't you believe It," chorused a half
dosen of th wisest when they were told
to walk down the aisle and see th cow
In the farthest stall. They had seen so
many wonderful things thst they never
knew before, they bad asked how many
crop of a round steak a steer will raise
In a single season, but they were sure no
cow could hav five legs.
For that very reason many mlsaed .see
ing this real curiosity, being afraid of a
sell.
City and county officials Joined th
party. Among them were Commissioners
Jardlne, Butler. Wlthnell, Drexel, Cor
poration Counael John Ring and County
Attorney George Magney.
Th visitors were decorated with whit
arm and bat bands bearing th words,

Following this they wer led by Jack
Walters through ths cattle, hog, sheep
and horse yards and barna Th splendid
new hors barns, concreted throughout
and thoroughly fireproof, wer of great
Interest to the men. The new and huge
sheep barns, where more feeder sheep are
handled than In any other yards In ths
world, wer eye-openers. Then they
came to ths splendid double-deck, solid
concret hog psrlors and yards, where
everyone of th tens of thousands of bogs
that come there dally ar sheltered from
sun and rain by concret roof.
8om of th party remained to go
through th packing bouses, but thos
who had visited th packing plants In th
past took cars for horn about I o'clock.
