SHE MAKES BISCUITS.
This Minneapolis YOUIIK I.uily Hits a Now
Sclirmi * .
The extent to which home patronage has
been practiced by the people of Omuha hns
made serious Inroads upon the business of
some outside linns that have been growing
fat out of Omnhn , und some of these 11 run
are mailing strenuous efforts to stem the tide
of popular sentiment. In spite of the lact
that ft ! ms ocoii pointed out tlmounu again thut
it U to the advantage of Omaha retail deal-
ei's to promote homo industries , as it will Im
prove their trade , many of thorn are assisting
these oiitaido Ilrmi to Icuop their grip on
Nebraska. The roiall dealers who uro doing
this arc not the new-comers to the city , but
they are men who have been in business In
Omaha for years , men who have made every
dollar they have out of the putrormgo of
Omaha nuople. la the face of this they turn
round and stab tUeir own city in the most
vital point by aiding oumido manufacturer. )
to crush out the manufacturing spirit in
Nebraska.
The latest example Of this hostility on the
part of retail dealers to Nebraska indus
tries Is to be lound in the grocery trade.
There was a tlmo when tbo peonlo of
Omaha believed that no flour was good
unless It bore some Minneapolis brand but
after the home patrouagn movement was set
on foot they tried Omaha and Nebraska
flour and found it equal in every respect to
the best Minneapolis brands. The discovery
of this truth has materially cut down the
sale or the leading Minneapolis brands in
Omaha and the manufacturers of that city
fell that something must bo done or No-
bruska millers would bo ubla to build up a
business within tholr own state and In time
bncomn strong enough to compote with
Minneapolis In other states.
Accordingly the largest flour manufacturer
of Minneapolis cmno to Omaha and perfected
arrangements with the enumius of homo pat-
ronnKC by mouns of which it Is hoped to once
more mnko the public believe that Minneapo
lis is the only city that can make good flour.
This Minneapolis miller brought with him
a young woman who is noted as an expert
broad and biscuit bnkor. The past week this
baker has been npor.iting in a well known
grocery' atoro in Omuha. Every customer
that enters the store , gontlqinan or lady , is '
treated to hot biscuits , which are certainly
of excellent quality and taste , good espe
cially to ono whoso anpotlto has been sharp
ened by the uxerciso of xhopplntr.
\Vhilo partaking of thin Ireo lunch the con
sumer Is entertained by the glib recital of the
fact that the flour was made in Minneapolis ,
ind for fear tlir.t It may bo forgotten circu
lars are distributed.
This Minneapolis. halto shop is not located
in the back part of the store or under the
counter wlioro Nebraska made goods are so
frequently placed , but the best part of the
store is given up to * it , the front counter
close by the entrance ; The clerks and the
proprietor vie with each ether U3 to which
) no can load the greatest number of cus
tomers up to the free lunch counter and nay
.ho most complimentary things about the
Minneapolis flour anil the fair baker.
