Corn is not only comln from all latitude
' of the globe to the National Corn axposl
tlon In Omaha, but arrangement are being
'made at the request of western corn row
rs to display corn grown hi all altitudes.
Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois corn grows
in an altitude ranging from 1.000 to 2,500
feet above sea level. But there are places
on the American continent where corn IS
; growing and prospering 4,600 feet above
sea level.
An Interesting exhibit is to be arranged
showing the corn whloh grows, like the
pine trees, along the high plateaua of the
: Rocky mountain district. Colorado, Idaho,
Montana, Nevada, Utah, Arisona, Wyo
ming and New Mexico will furnish exhibits
of this kind and the growers will be given
an opportunity to observe the effect of alti
tude on corn.
President A. B. Funk of the National
Corn association has promised exhibits of
com from all the foreign countries to
which American seed Is sent. Corn will be
shown grown In the temperate and torrid
cones, where corn was never thought to be
a very profltabla crop.
But down In Bouth Africa, where Illinois
and Nebraska seed corn Is sent, 87.T00.O0O
bushels of corn were produced, Egypt pro
ducing 30,000,000 bushels, Sudan 800,000 bush
els, Algeria 400,000 buBhels, Cape of Good
Hope 3,000,000 bushels and Natal 4,000,000
bushels.
Soatk American Exhibit.
Then, South America will have an ex
hibit, where IDS.000,000 bushels were grown,
and other exhibits will be from Queens
land, New South Wales, Victoria and west
em Australia. '
From Russia and North Caucasia, where
11,000,000 bushels of corn were produced last
year, exhibits will come to the big show at
Omaha, showing that even where there are
longer winters than there are In America
the exports of the agricultural colleges of
the Western Hemisphere can find varieties
of corn which will flourish. President
Funk has furnished much of the seed from
which corn is produced from Bosnla-Herxe-govlna
to Argentina and from Ontario to
Spain, where the olives come from.
The part which the United Slates govern
ment will take In tho National Corn show
is yet a mystery, but a number of the cloao
friends of Secretary of Agriculture Wilson
and Governor Sheldon are urging on him
the necoslty of the department taking an
interest In the exhibition and the manage
ment will Invite the department to slrow
many of the processes which have been
tried for handling grain from the time it
is taken from tho field until it Is prepared
for human food.
Another process which the government
may demonstrate is the making of dena-

Has tho revival of business become so
general that the Union Pacific will have
to restore Its normal shop forces In order
to turn out the repaired engines needed in
the service, -and is W. R. McKecn, super
intendent of the motive power and ma
chinery of that road to be made general
superintendent of motive power of the
Harriman system?
These two reports current In Omaha were
put up to Mr. McKeen upon his return
from Chicago, where lie had been on offi
cial business. His answer to the latter In-
uiry after deliberating as If shaping his
replywith the utmost caution, was:
I have received no such Instructions."
There is nothing to the report, then?"
he was a.ked.
"That would be my , answer I have re
ceived no such instructions." .
Mr. Mohlcr. vice president and general
manager, said there was nntlilng to tne
report. He admitted there was talk before
he financial depression hint fall of placing
Mr. McKeen in a position where he could
devote his time exclusively to the construct
ion of the motor cars, but tho depression
put an end to this talk.
Among the shopmen and others In local
railroad circles the Impression has pre
vailed for some time that Mr. McKeen's
official status was undergoing a change
that would elevate hhn and promote As
sistant Superintendent Fuller to his pres
ent place.
As to the report that present shop forces
in Omaha were Insufficient to inert tho
requirements and that work was piling up
at a rapid rate, and that highe officials
were urging the shop foremen to turn out
the work, Mr.' McKeen said:
"This is always the quiet season. We
have some engines awaiting repairs a'nd
others awaiting demand for service after
having been repaired. All our engines will
be in service by August."
Are the forces now at work sufficient
to meet tho demands?"
"V'e always keep an adequate number
of men -at work yes."
Mr. McKeen declined to say what pro
portion of the nurintil number of men was
at work In Uie shops. Asked If the regu
lar number was to be restored Immediately
to meet the large demands of repairs, he
said no.

pne of the two ice houses on the reser

noon. The h6use was empty. It is thought
the fire was started In the straw and hay

building was beyond saving and they con

EASTER EGGS PENNY EACH
Price is Lower Than it Was Last
Year.
FURTHER DECLINE IS PREDICTED
Flah AImo Is then per, ail Mild Win
ter Has lironKll Forth .Much
l.araer Snpply of the
Young.
Easter eggs will cost 1 cent each this
year instead of two for 5 cents, the price
last year. But they should be secured
early, as most anything Is apt to huppen
to the price before April 19. The predic
tion of dealers, however, is for lower
prices. ...
Fish is cheaper and Is to be lower, ac
cording to dealers, who say that one of
the beneficial results of the mild winter
will be the large number of fish hatched
this spring. Even in the rivers and lakes
where whlteflsh come from up north the
Ice did not freeze to a depth that had any
harmful effect on the fish and there will
be very few cases where they are frozen.
With eggs and fish lower and spring
chickens at 9 cents per pound It will be
hard for the retailers to d!3pose of mucty
meat at hard coal prices, while ducks and
geese are quoted at 10 and 6 cents, respec
tively. Eggs are selling at the stores for 14 and
15 cents, while commission houses are quot
ing lL'Va to 13V& cents, and all eggs are fresh.
Meat -prices were advanced the first of
tho week, as told In The Bee, and other
advances are now predicted. J. Ogrten
Armour returned to Chicago from New
York after the prices advanced and made
the public happy by saying:
"I found sentiment greatly Improved In
New York over what it was a month ago.
Now there In a complete change. The open
ing of the Knickerbocker Trust company
seems to have had a great influence on
sentiment, and sentiment Is a great fac
tor In business.
' "I believe ws have reached the bottom
and have turned the corner. Railroad earn
ings are as poor as they can be and the
next change will be for the better. I be
lieve that from this time business will show
an, Improvement. I don't mean there will
be any sudden change or that It will be In
two or In three weeks, or three months,
for that matter, but if we have good crops
everything will be better and there is no
telling what will happen next year."
