Three capllallKts of Minnesota, represent
lntf three scp.nnte milling concerns, will b
In Omaha within a month or two to in
vestigate the city's advantages as a loca
tion for mills, ir the situation proves as
favorsblo as these men think It Is. mill
will be erected either In Omaha or Council
Bluffs.
Charles T. Peavey, formerly In the grain
business In Omaha, is authority for this
Information. He Is Interested in making
the Omaha-Council Bluffs gateway a mill
ing center and has spent three y four
j weeks Intely In Minnesota endeavoring to
! get millets to look Into the situation,
j "There are people in Omaha who, for
I obvious reasons, have never wanted rrlll
I here and so far they have succeeded In
keeping them out," said Mr. Pesvey. "A
year ago a large milling concern sent Us
representatives here, expecting to locate a
plant. The wrong people got hold of theni,
and put conditions In such a false light
that the company went to Kansas City ami
put $300,000 In a plant, which has just been
completed.
"I think thcte tactics will not prevail
again, as millers all over the country are
noting the Increasing advantages of this
market, and the local public Is becoming
alive to them.
Klevmtor Capacity Growtnsr.
"We hr.ve an elevator capacity of s.CXVOOfl
bushels and It is still growing. We have
as low rates as any market, and the roads
for the most part have recently given us
Just distributing rates. There ara plenty
of cheap sites on both sides of the river.
We can draw from all of Nebraska and
part of South Dakota, and can mix spring
and winter wheat moro cheaply than other
center. For that matter, though, thers
Is no necessity of mixing spring whent
with the winter, for bakers are realizing
the fact that winter wheat alone makes
Just aa good bread snd they are refusing
to pay premiums for spring wr-eat flour.
"I understand, though I am not at liberty
to use any names, that certain country
millers of Nebraska ara figuring on build
Ing a mill here. They ought to hurry, for
I firmly believe Minnesota capital will open
plants hero at no distant date, and tha first;
In business will have tha best opportunities."

Fecan Cream Shell two dozen pecans of
good "size, being careful to remove every
bit of the bitter inner hull. String the
half nuts on a fine white thread, oiled
well with butter, using a fine needle and
leaving a space of abuut half an Inch be
tween the halves. Bring slowly to a boll
u cup of brown sjgar and a third of a cup
of milk and then let boll briskly until It
forms a soft bull when dropped Into cold
water, then add a teaspoonful of butter
and remove Immediately from the fire. Stir
quickly until smooth, but before the candy
begins to set take the string of nuts and
draw through it, submerging the nuts so
that they may have a good coating of the
cream candy. Lift out the string by the
ends and let drip onto a buttered paper,
preferably In a cold placet until the candy
Is net and then spread oa a plate or but

out the thread when the creams are cold.

Will Not Be Abolished as Was Feared
by Interstate Commerce Com
mission Hullnar.
Merchants' meetings at Omaha, tha ex
Istence of which was threatened by a rail
road ruling said to be In conformance with
a decree of the Interstate Commerce com
mission, will be continued. The railroads
have derided that they can grant certain
concessions and still keep within the pile of
the law.
So snild a member of the Omaha Jobbers
and Manufacturers' association flftr ponv
Ing from Commissioner Guild of the Com
mercial club, who is In Chicago.
A month ago 4"he railroads construed n
certain ruling of the commission to menu
that no certificates Issued on the reduced
rate round trip plan could be validated
until 100 certificates had bfen presented.
This would kill the meetings, as some mer
chants come Ir. and do not wish to wnlt n
day or two until the ninety-nine others
arrive and present their certificates.
The railroads have decided to issue the
eertlficate at reduced rates on a guarantee
from any Jobbers' association that the num
ber ofmerchants visiting the market at I
anr one meeting will exceed 100. The
Omaha Jobbers' and Manufacturers' asso
ciation will readily accede to this condition.
