Blotcky Refutes Assertions that Potatoes Are High 'T will buy any amount of Colorado potatoes, from ten to fco cars, laid down at Omaha, at 70 cents a bushel," nald H. Blotcky, replying to a statement In The Bee by R. A. Stanton of Greeley, Colo., that Colorado growers were getting al most nothing for their "oudll, nmt h retail price should be about 30 to 40 cents a DUBiiei. Mr. Blotcky says blight ruined the Colo rado crop this year. He uiiowed Uttrx from the Potato Growers' association of Brush, Colo., saying, "We cannot sell you any potatoes. We will not have enough for our own market." Mr. Blotcky says he received similar letters from Greeley and Fort Morgan. "The cheapest that good potatoes have been bought in carload lots by Omaha produce men," said Mr. Blotcky, "Is 80 cents a bushel. With sarlnkage to stand and sacks to furnlwh, this would mean M cents. Good stock has never been sold to Omaha retailers this fall for less than 90 cents a bushel. The retail firm that sold northern spuds last Saturday at SO cents a bushel was losing 7 cents a bushel on the deal, using spuds as a leader. "The potatoes that the mayor of Den Moines Is selling at, 65 cents are hollow and Omaha retailers wouldn't handle them at any price. Practically all the Iowa crop this year Is hollow. The re tailors, of Omaha are demanding north. em potatoes, and the freight from the fields to Omaha runs 17 to 20 cents a bushel." Hall and Taylor Are Out With Creighton A new candidate appeared on the Creighton campus Thursday night, wear ing a blue and white uniform. It was Taylor, colored, a medical student. He Is a Nebraska star of former years. He Is big, fast and experienced and will handily fill n a line position, very probably at fciiurd. Even better than this is the announce ment that Hall, Crelghton'a big center of laat year, will again don the pads. This position has been wobbly all sea son, but with Hall back on the Job It will considerably steady the line. Lialderson and Prouke are still on the hospital list and will scarcely be able to hold down the half back Jobs, but with this exception, Miller will pit his strong est team against Omaha university in the first local struggle.

This amusing Incident has existed purely as a bit of fiction up to the present moment when an Omaha mer chant of like enterprise attempts the Identical trick on a competitor. On Wednesday or Thursday of this week the local papers carried Urge advertise ments announcing the opening of a new store under the name "Manhattan Sample Store," which announces men's, women's and children's apparel. The firm took the best location at hand, securing the Brown block, at the southeast corner of Six teenth and Douglas streets, and proceeded to arrange attractive signs along the side of the Sixteenth street entrance. The basement below the Manhattan company's store Is another clothing shop. The Manhattan company announced "opening" suits at 19.99,' when, behold, tha goods In the basement Immediately were marked Identically $9.93. More than this, signs, together with "fists," point the way to the basement with the uncon scious quotation from the humorous story, Main Entrance." This merely goes to show that enter prise Is more Important than Income to merchants who strive hard for business. It recalls the policy of some of the 10 cent store companies operating chains of stores across the United States. It is known that these people never advertise, always renting a location between two regular- advertisers, thus pilfering the benefits of their publicity. These 10-cent bargain stores know the value of news paper advertising, however, and upon their opening in new locations plan every possible effort to get "news stories" into the newspapers. Children ara "crushed to death" In the crowds; "women faint;" strong men weep all of tha old chestnuts go Into their clumsy press agent attempts. On one occasion In the city of Omaha every newspaper was besieged In an effort to get Into print stories of the "awful crush" at the opening of the new store.
