A Jobber who IIIIN been out over the t-tnt riultc extensively , ami him had cxcuptl Ut uppoi tunltle.s fet observation , "iiy * that u.t , i educed coniiumptlon of goods In Ncbratki IH not due fa much to the scarcity u money as nvmy linaglne. It Is gcnerall ) supposed that the shoit cropi and low piiceH haphuud the fnimcis where the } could not nffotd to piirclint-e more than thn bare necessities. On this oilier hand the funnels have done very HttliS corn plaining about Ihi- hard tlrney , and then imvu been no calls the past winter from any section of the slntp foi help , whlcl would have been the on If the fin mots wcro In such poor condition llnanoinlly us generally supposed. THe jobber rneatlnnei e.tptnlnsthe dttmtlon thus ; "The droilll of isal IniiKhl the fanners a IK SOII thn they will not soon foigct. They had conit Into the habit of gionlni ; coin , and ono 01 two other crops , and of hujlng everythln ; else from the store. Many large farmers did not pretend to grow their own potatoes nnd gardens were scarce ; It was so muel easier to buy tomatoes and other cannei Roods than to inlj-c them. The farmers did not even grow enough beans to snpplj their own tables , but obtained their .suppl > from the local stores , which ordered Iron the Omaha Jobbers , who had them shlppei In from thu east or from California. The loirs of the corn crop of 1S3I left the fnrrners without the means of buying UK usual , am In consequence they had to go on hhal rations until a new crop could be grown. ' * I ast year every farmer made a great effort to grow everything that lie wouli icqulro for the support of hH fnmllv , am with good success. This elmncc of'pollc > on the part of the Nebraska farmer- , ac cording to the Investigating jobber , has caused the Omaha grocery houses the loss- of no fctnall amount of trnde. The InrniBr does not have to Iruv nearly so much In the line of canned fruits and vegetables dried fruits , etc. , as formerly , nor li he buying us much fresh fruit and vegetables as the wholesale fruit and produce houses can testify to. This moans , for the time being u.lo s of business , hut In the end It will bo a goo < thing- because It will Inc-caso the farmer's purchasing power when u comes to other Ilnc-4 of gqoda and will leave more wealth in the Ftnte. Ftnte.1JANK 1JANK CJ-EARINGS. The bank ilearlngs continue to show a f gratifying increase over last year , the gain I * the 2ast wrek being in excess of ZO per cent' I/Or * \vh.le the nvei.ico gain for the whole coun try vvas only 98 per cent. Minneapolis Bhow.s about the largest gain of any city In the country. 41 per tent , but her gross clearings art ) only a little over $1,090,0 < X ) greater than Omaha's. Kansas City gains ZJ-per cent , St. 1'aul 1.6 per cent , St. Joseph 13 uer cent nnd Denver teports a deciease 01 5.4 per cent. It will be noted from this that Omaha Is keeping pace with other cities In thlK part of the. country , and no doubt If id the Hvo stock , business couM he put on 11 = feet once more would soon forge ahead of Its , rivals. If Omaha could secure the live stock ship ments from Nebraska that rightfully belong to her It would make a great difference to the showing that this city would be able to make. A jobber Is authority for the statement that the ! o s of business at South Omaha Is hurting the jobbing trade ol Omaha. A retail merchant from a town In the western part of the state was In the city thq past weelt and remarked that since nil the stock In his section had commenced 'goingto Kansas City Instead of South Omaha , It was not so convenient for him to buy hip goods In Omaha. He said that he was an Omaha man and regretted to see all the live stock going away from here , es pecially as ho was aware that It would take the trade of a eood many country merchants with It. A good many retail merchants arrange It so that they can come In to buy their goods nt the came time with a shipment of stock , nnd thus get a pass- to the city nnd leturn , when otherwlye. they would have to pay fare. If the stock Is going to some other city than Omaha that fact Is an Inducement for the merchant to make the same change. COUNTRY I'HODUCB. The produce mirket of the past week has been very slow and It Is no easy matter tepee pee Just why. Some lines of produce are ex ceptionally low , especially for thl seanon of the year , as for cxarnple.butter nnd eggs. The consumption of eggs In this city Is appar ently the smallest that It has been for sev- era ! years and at a time when the price makes eggs about the cheapest article of food In the whole list. The Hhlpping de mand , however. Is goodnnd It Is not dim- cult to keep stock * ? well cleaned up. With butter the > cape Is not so favorable. The consumption locally of that commodity Is also very light , but at the same time the demand for shipment Is extremely poor even nt the low prlcc. prevailing. There does not appear to be any outlet for It In the east. With poultry It Is quite different. The rcceiptu are'very light , and as the demand Is good , values have been forced up so that arrivals are brlnplng prices that are very pallr/nctory to shippers. In fact poultry Is nbout the best selling article on the whole list of country produce. The game briPinci-H nt this season of the year does not amount to anything , there being hardly anything In that Una hut rab bit * * , and they are In light demand. PACTOHY FACTS.

While It nicy be comparatively easy to find n substitute ) for Konid products , manufacturers of comb ? , buttons' , etc , , nro decidedly phoit of material and they nro quite aware that the mipply Is gradually dwindling , On Wednesday evening next there vl'i bo a meeting of the Manufacturers' asso ciation of Nebraska at the Comrnerc'al club rooms at 6:30 : o'clock. A lureo attend ance of manufacturers from out through the ( state Is expected and the Omaha mem bers will entertain them with a banquet. The general subject for discussion will he how to push Nebraska products to the front , thus encouraging the building of more factories and the employment of more people. A traveling man from the cast , who was In the city the past week , was dUcusslns with a local manufacturer the peculiarity of American people In always preferring goods from n distance to those made at home and uuvo the following IlltiMtatlcm ; A large shoo manufacturer In a Hinull New KiiK'aml ' town noticed that none of the residents of the town , not even his own iiiployeu ; , vu-re wearing Hhocs madeby him. It.happened that IrU factory was the only Industry of any Importance located there. In fact. It wag the main support of the town. PhD manufacturer dlscliiuted oil of hla Ju'lp nnd clo ed his factory. A week or two went by and the merchant ) * were beginning to feel the scarcity of money and finally waited upsn the manufacturer , who tuolalned that h was tlml of supporting a ( own that would not support him. It did not tAke the merchants long to coma to the cniicluflion tlmt they would carry In stock the ihoc ninilo in their own town. OM MIA * titMiitAi < M AH KMT.
