West Glamoring for Omaha Grain Snow Covered Bandies' Demands for Feed Drawing Heavily on the Market Here. A new demand for grain from the Omaha grain market has sprung up, because of the heavy snows In the west. The call for grain for feed for stock all over the west is much heavier than It has ever been since the establishment of the Omaha grain market. Wyoming ranchmen are loud In their de mands for feed for their stock and the railroads are pushing corn and oats and hay a fast as they can get the trains ihronirh. The Northwestern has been practically tied up west of Casper, but the situation Is becoming somewhat relieved. While the stockmen do not report many heavy losses to date, they fear that If the winter does not break and some of the snow disappear the loss will be heavy. In the Belle Fourche country the ranch men put up endless stacks of hay and this Is caring for the stock nicely. Some grain which was shipped to Omaha from west ern Nebraska Is being hustled back again to take care of the stock. , Union Pacific Will Add Mill to Big Shops Decides at Last on Flans for Erect ing Structure 160x300 Feet in Dimensions.
