Bar Silver 99 Vic Mexican DoUara-f - TAKE STEPS TO MAKE GATE CITY BIG WOOL CENTER Great Saving Is Possible if Nebraska Fleece Is Shipped to Omaha for1 Distri bution. County agricultural agents all over Nebraska report that there are more than 500,000 pounds of wool now in the hands of small growers in the state and that millions of pounds are being held by large growers, An effort has been made to induce the small growers to combine and ship their fleece in carload lots to the I large commission houses in the east, Omaha -men who are licensed to handle wool feel that it would be bet- ter for the interests of the wool grow- ers of the state and for Omaha for the wool to be shipped here. They receive no commission on their sales, but are trying to establish a wool market in Omaha and the argument they use is that this is the logical and "on wnicn, m w or "V"J strategical point for the location of bc the great continental such a market. Great Saving Possible. Wool is now purchased direct by the manufacturer. He could come out here, select his grades of wool, ship amy it to his mills direct and save extra expense of handling by brokers and other middlemen, duplication of haul, interest on money invested in ad- vances and extra insurafce-all big items. I,,.., i j vyooi growers in mis section wouia be benehted by the establishment ot market at Omaha in that it would create a competing point against Bos ton and assure them ot better average orices for their cud at all times. The millions of pounds of wool in Nebraska is now ready for release and much of it should come to Omaha.

TENANT AND OWNER, LIABILITY SHOWN Builders' Association Draws New Form of Contract to Be Attached to Leases to WVjSach Party. ii-Xf; Mtmbers of the Building Owners' and Managers' association, at a meeb ing J.his week, drew tip a form Whicl is to be attached to leases as a rider, and which will define the contract lia bility of tenants and owners of apart ment houses on their.; leases. , The form is intended to bind both parties to their contract agreements until the termination of such leases, . and where the tenant finds it imnos- sibTe. through some contingency over which he has no control, provision is made for notification and arrangement with the landlord or agent for ths termination of th agreement under certain stipulations. A feature which wiU be of interest to tenants of 'apartment houses is in future all agreements for interior re- pairs, alterations or decorations of an aoartment must be agreed upon be tween landlord and tenant at the time the lease is made and will be part of the lease contract. It is thought that . this wilt do away with. all differences and misunderstandings in the relation ship of building owners and occupants of apartments and be more business like solution of some ot the problems which confront both parties to t lease contract ' . .-.
