But theso flffiiros are not really signifi cant of th irrrat businpss done every year i in Omaha In the Ch.iJtmas tree line. Seven I full carloads have been received here so far. In each car are trees, which makes a total of 31!.i00 trei-s sold and dis tributed from Omaha. Many dealers handle them, but the lsr nt dealer at wholesale In the city Is the Snyder-Trimble company, which annually disposes of from 16.U00 to IO,0 of these evergreen trees. Christmas trees will ranee in price from 23 cents for the small shoot to tS or te for the big church trees. In quality, the stock on hand ranges high this year and excellent quality pertains In unusual degree to holly this season. Sprigs with many, many rnd berries are for sale and the sprigs of this blight tree will be really cheerful this Noel season. Nearly all on the market are the genuine Delaware ' ariety. Mistletoe, which comes from the south, varies little as to quality from year ti year. "Chriatmaa trees do not cost the con sumer very much at the worst," said one dealer," and when the cost of getting them Into tht; retailer's hands Is considered. It Is really a low price. ThH trees are all out in the frozen marshes and pineries of Wisconsin, must be loaded on wagons and hauled to flat cars, then shipped consider able distance, hauled to the wholesaler and hauled again to the retailer. Moreover, they ars very bulky articles of commerce and occupy a great deal of stor age room."

Says Subdivision of Ranges Floods Market with Stock Sheep Eaiser from Wyoming Explains Seduction of Meat Prices Prom ises EaDid Increase. Recent reductions In meat prices are credited to sale of stock resulting from the subdivision of the rargea Into farms, by i. J. Blackstone, a sheep rancher from near Cody, Wyo. "During the last year or two," ha said. "Wyoming, which is one of Uie principal stock raising states, has had a wonderful Influx of aetUera, who have cut up many of the big ranches by their land purchases. As a corsequencs Uie stock raisers, not having enough land, have oeen forced to decrease thrlr stock. They have flooded the market, which has naturally reduced the price. If you will look over Uie receipts of the markets, especially the South Omaha market, you will see the Increase which has caused the drop In prices. Most of the stock from Wyoming Is sent to the South Omaha market." The ranchman said, however, that It would only be a short Ume until Uie prices return to their former seal and probably go above It. Blackstone sustained a broken shoulder a few days ago, when a team ran away wliii him, lie cam to Omaha Friday morning for treatment. i Men's and Young Men's Suits and Overcocis, Hals, Furnishing Goods 218 North fl OUTFITTERS TO S 218 Nor KdJ MEN AND BOYS VlSth Strc Jail Expert Says .
