THE
IIIVKIC MAKKKTS HOOMING
The live stock quarantine at Chicago, preventing Blocker and feeder
Stuff from being shipped out of there. Is throwing a lot of business to the
Missouri river markets this year, that formerly went to the "Windy City".
This circumstance and the normnl jiowth of the live stock business at Oma
ha, Kansas City, Sioux City and St.. Joseph are giving thoe markets a boom
greater than any that they have ever had before.
On Monday of this week, Omanx was the largest live stock market in
the United States, Judged from the number of cattle, hogs, sheep and horses
received. The record for receipts of cattle was broken and the market was
second only to Chicago, while the receipts of sheep were larger than all oth
er markets combined, thus, putting Omaha ahead of Chicago In the totals
for that day.
Total receipts of Btock were greater than at any other single live stock
market In the country.
The cattle record was made with the receipts of 643 cars, totalling 17,
183 head. The old record was made October 19, 1914, when 627 cars were
received. The heavy Increase in cattle business is due largely to the quar
antine at Chicago, from which feeder stuff cannot be shipped.
Sheep receipts amounted to 140 cars, totaling 38,874 head. This Is
not a particularly new story, Omaha apparently having permanently become
the country's greatest sheep market.
In addition to this record there were twenty-two cars of horses, 471
bead, received. This is not a record-breaker, but Is far above the average.
' ACOUIKlNt; TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE
By technical we mean pertaining to the science of mechanical arts. In
the above heading, we refer particularly to the acquiring of knowledge nec
essary to the safe and successful operating of machines of Intricate construc
tion, the knowledge necessary for one to possess in order to be properly
called a machinist operator or mechanician.
We are living in a fast ago and u fast country, an age and a country
In which people are not willing, as formerly In this country and yet in some
other countries, to Hpeml many years in close application in order to become
an expert machinist or tradesman. II ia a fact, easily proven, that many
costly and fatal accidents are due to Ignorance on the part of persons who
try to do work for which they are not qualified. Thousands of lives are
sacrificed every year, and millions of dollars' worth of property destroyed,
thru Ignorance. Laws have been enacted from time to time to safeguard
the people against accidents, but it Is remarkable how many lives must be
lost and how much property needlessly destroyed before legislatures will
act for the protection of the public.
There Is no reasonable excuse for any one' not being master of the ma
chine which he tries to operate, from a typewriter to a locomotive engine.
With schools of technology covering a w ide range of subjects, and with oth
er schools specialising on one particular subject with facilities for ample
demonstration work, the practical knowledge necessary for efficient opera
tion of any ordinary machine can be acquired in a comparatively short time.
And It pays one well to take the time and Incur the expense necessary
to the acquirement of such knowledge. A definite Illustration of this is
found In The Herald oflice. Within the last few years, an employe of the
mechanical department decided that he would become a "machinist oper
ator" of the typesetting machine. Accordingly he went to Brooklyn, N. Y.,
where he entered the factory as a student. Under competent instruction
and with opportunity to observe, and assist In, the construction of the ma
chines, he soon obtained a practical knowledge of them that it would have
taken many years to have acquired by the ordinary process of "picking It
up" around a priming oflice.
The Herald Is now plving special attention to the advertisements of
automobile schools, not merely for the revenue that may be derived there
from, for really It does not amount to a great deal; but because by so do
ing we can carry out our principles of giving to our readers the best thing
possible, both in advertisements and other reading matter. Automobile
schools are conducted In cities In connection with large repair shops, which
furnish ample demonstration work along with expert instruction. It is our
firm belief that any man or woman can within a few weeks obtain more
practical Information regarding motor cars by attending a reliable automo
bile school than can be acquired In as many months or years by other ordin
ary methods.
We speak of women as students at automobile schools. And why not?
We hope to see the time coine very soon when no person, man, woman, boy

The manufacture of shoe leather
In America Is confined to a compara
tively small number of large tanner
ies, but the tanning of hides for fur!
garments, robes, rugs, etc., is carried
on successfully in quite a number of
the larger cities of the west and the
middle west. The furs so tanned
are manufactured Into the articles
mentioned, to order or for the custom
trade, as It is called.
The demand for the tanning of
hides to order and the manufacture
of garments, robes and rugs there
from is Increasing. Formerly the
hides of many dend animals were
never taken from the carcasses, but
people are learning that to not save
them is a useless waste, that at a
moderate cost they can be turned In
to articles both ornamental and use
ful. They are learning that it is al
so practicable to have fur articles
made to order, even tho they do not
furnish the hides. Parcels post and
lower express rates have no doubt
had something to do with facilitating
this class of business.
In soliciting advertising for the
Herald-Stockman from tanners and
fur manufacturers we have confined
ourselves to those houses that we be
lieve to be thoroly reliable. Many
of our readers are in position to pat
ronize these houses, either by selling
them hides or by ordering them tan
ned and garments manufactured
therefrom. Hence It has been easy
in this matter to follow our rule of
asking advertising only from those
persons and firms that we believe
will deal fairly with our readers and
who Will probably receive some bus
iness as a result of their advertising.
The moral is, if you have a hide or
can get one, have it tanned and some
thing useful made from It, or sell it
to the tanner or hide house.
PLENTY OF PItOOF
From People You Know From Alli
ance Citizens
The greatest Bkeptic can hardly
fail to be convinced by evidence like
this. It is Impossible to produce bet
ter proof of merit than the testimony
of residents of Alliance, of people
who can be seen at any time. Read
the following case of it:
Mrs. J. E. Whaley. 422 E. Oregon
St., Alliance, says: "Ovei three years
ago my kidneys became badly disor
dered and the kidney secretions were
unnatural. Whenever I stooped,
sharp pains darted through my loins
and it was hard for me to straighten.
1 tried many remedies, but all failed
to help me until I used Doan's Kid
ney Pills, procured at Holsten's Drug
Store. They brought relief in a
short time and 1 continued using
them until I was free from kidney
complaint."
Price 50c. at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy get
Doan's Kidney Pills the same that
Mrs. Whaley had. Foster-Milburn
