The homo patronage movement Inauguratedby Tin : Br.r. in Omaha has arpused a groutamount of interest among manufacturers inall purls of the stato. This fact Is especiallynoticeable in Boatrlco , where all the manu-

facturers¬

, with only ono exception , nroreaders of TUB Br.E , and banco familiar withevery stop taken In this great move to de-

velop¬

the manufacturing resources of thetnto.-

A.

Bnu reporter , In company with Secre-tary

¬

Bradley of the Manufacturers and Con-

sumers¬

Association of Nnbraska , made atour ot the Boatrlco factories during theearly part of the week , the latter for thepurpose of enrolling the manufacturers inthe homo patrouago movement , nnd theformer to discover wtyit progress had boonmade by the manufacturing industries of thecity ,

The majority of the manufacturers in thecity that is , all whoso business interestsextend beyond the city limits joined themovement aud Mr. Bradley loft there withthe applications for ton now mem-bers

¬

In his pocket. This entitles Be-

atrice¬

to two directors , and after theapplications for membership havo' beenaccepted by the present board , tbo membersIn Bcatrico will meet nnd select two of theirnumber to represent them In the manage-ment

¬

of the association.TUB FliiaiNO IN' IlIUTIilCB-

.As.

noted above , tbo manufnturcrs of Bo-.atrico

.

are very much Interested in the homopatronage movement , bocnuso they believewith Tin : HER tint it is tbo practical way ofdeveloping the manufacturing industries ofthe state. As one of their number remarked C-

"It does no coed to locate factories In anycity if they are allowed to stand Idle forwant of patronage. An idle factory Is a pooradvertisement. "

Ono of the noticeable results of this move-mo

-it U a broadening out of the Ideas of busi-

ness¬

men. Tauy feel that after all the pros-perity

¬

of every city Is dependent upon theprosperity ot the whole state. There is roomin Nebraska for a good many largo cities , butin order that these cities may grow the wholeatnta must Increase In wealth and prosperity-

.It.

U realized that Omaha Is a largo city ,but that her growth must be limited by thegrowth ot tbo cities around liar to whom shemust look for trado. Beatrice is a line city butthe development of her resources are to agreat extent dependent upon the prosperityol other cities that furnish a market for herproducts ,

Business men In Boatrlco appear to fullv-roallzo this dependence of ono city upon an-other

¬

aud there is accordingly a very kindlyfeeling among the manufacturers towardsother cities of tbo state.

Said otio manufacturer ; "Wo make goodshero which are not made in Omaha , whyshould not Omaha buy of us In preference toeastern raunulacturcrsl In the same way ,Omaha turns out good * which are not madehero , wo should buy ot them. That would bo-

a fair exchange and tbo money would bo keptin the state. "

Said another ; 'Hundreds of thousands otdollars worth of Roods are bought of jobbersoutside of Nebraska which would bo hotterkept within the state , but Nebraska jobbershave no} always shown tbomiolvo * friendlyto Nebraska uiado goods , mid until they uo-

BO they cannot with good grace ask for allNebraska's trade.1-

The Dempster Mill manufacturing com-pany

¬

is the style of a llrm engaged In themanufacture of tubular well machinery andsupplies , wind mills , pumps , etc. They haveon their pay roll sixty-live poopla and dis-

tribute¬

in wages about $33,000 yearly.-An

factory in the sphng and their working forcewill bo Increased by at least ton mon-

.A.

grant demand has sprung up for theirwell machinery , especially in California ,

Texas , Now Mexico and other southwesternterritories , whore artesian wells are wanted.-

An.

Omaha house has disposed of u consid-erable

¬

quantity of the goods made by thislinn and the pleasant relations existing be-

tween¬

those two houses uo doubt helps topromote a kinaly reeling between the twocities.

The Dempster wind mills arc having quitoa large sale and Nebraska farmers , who aremoro interested than any ono also in thegrowth of the manufacturing population ofthe atato as furnishing a market for theirproduce , would do well to think twice beforegoing outsldn of the state to buy a mill.

The lumber for thcso mills is bought in tho-rough und nil the work of manufacturing U-

douo hero. Even tbo iron work is made Intheir foundry. As iron wheels are qultopopular the company will commence theirmanufacture the coming season nnd willthen bo prepared to supply anything wantedIn this lino.

CVNNBP GOODS-

.An.

institution that is doing a good deal forthe city and for the farmers is the BeatriceCanning company. They put up corn andtomatoes and last season a few peaches.

Some Idea of tha Importance of such a fac-tory to a city may 'bo gained from the factthat during the cnnuiiiR season they employas high as !!00 poopIO. They employed o veryman , woman and child fa Boatrlco lastseason that wanted work. The ousy seasoncomes at a tlmo when the children uro out ofschool nnd many of them take advantage ofthe opportunity to earn some money them ¬

selves. A great many woman with familiesleave some of the children at homo to lookafter the house and work In the factorythemselves , and hi this way add materiallyto the income of the family.

The factory paid out in round numbers$15,000 for help during the canning season ,

They also paid out to tbo farmers tbo sameamount for corn and tomatoes. About 100farmers are ou paged In supplying the fac-tory

¬

and , so far oa could bo learned , fool thatgreen corn und tomatoes , at factory prices ,

are protltablo crops to raise.This $30OOJ paid out to tbo farmers and to

the laboring people eventually llnds Its wayInto the hands of tbo retail trudo and helpsto improve every line of business. If the re-tail

¬

dealers handle Nebraska goods the moneywill llnds Its way back into the hands of Ne-braska

¬

manufacturers , and will again bopaid out for Intjor and produce.

The output of this factory was sold to Job-bers

¬

at far east as Chicago and gave goodsatisfaction. The manager remarked : "Itour canned goods are of a quality that en-ables

¬them to bo sold la Chicago , where

they coma In competition with the besteastern Roods , they certainly ought to re-colvo

-

friendly consideration from Nebraskapeople. "

Canning factories as a rule have not boona very paving Investment for the stock-holders

One of the Most Remarkable Cures Ever Accomplished. When allHope Had Gone , Dn C. Gee Wo , the Famous Chinese Physician. SavedHis Life.-"I

desire to stnte Tor the benefit of nil who may be afflicted with sickness or disease that Dr C. GeeWo , the Chinese physician , of Omaha , is possessed of the most wonderful curing abilities 1 have over-heard of In my lifo , and I am not possessed of language adequate to express my thanks for the greatbenefit I have reoleved from his medical services. I was reduced to the lowest possible extremity , andwas given up for denthas other doctors had exhausted all thelrskill.and could do nothing to relieve me.1 was reduced to that point when death was momentarily expected ; in fact friends and relatives hadcongregated around my bedside to watch the final moments. As a last resort , I sent for Dr. ChangGee Wo , in the hope that , having heard of his great skill , he might be able to relieve me , at least , for Ihad no idea of over getting cured after my physician and others had concluded that there was no helpfor me. The Chinese Doctor was called in , no one thinking of any possible good to come from his visit ,but I had confidence in his ability , and concluded to put my casemy life I might say , in his hands.-

I.

knew my condition was hopeless. An abcess had formed on my lung and quick consumptionhad greatly increased my suffering. I kept declining rapidly , and it was declared that I could not liveover night. Dr. Gee Wo arrived late in the evening and after a hasty examination he concluded to tryif possible to save my life and he did , after I was given up to die. Dr. C. Gee Wo , through his skill anduntiring efforts , succeeded where all others had failed. He pronouncsd my case very serious thoughby no means a hopeless one , he said my condition required the promptest and most decisive treatmentand put about to relieve me in the most energetic manner. He said if 1 could survive until morninghe could cure me. After giving me warm applications and strengthening restoratives , I soon began toperceive my condition becoming more comfortable and the disease relaxing its death like hold uponme. I soon quieted down and rested until morning. In tne mean time many of my friends had retiredfor the night little expecting that I would be able to greet them in the morning But they were surpris-ed

¬

by finding me greatly improved and resting comfortably when they came to my bedside to inquireinto my condition. Dr. Gee Wo , my newly formed friend , remained at my bedside all night , und feltgreatly encouraged by the marked Improvement I had made since his arrival. He said I was betterand would live, which surprised even my closest friends. After I got bet'.er and in a condition to talkand consult with my family , the doctor advised me to come to Omaha , as. on account of his many pa-tients

¬in Omaha , he could not remain any longer at my home , but volunteered to send a trained nurse

to take care of me until I was able to make the trip to Omaha , and after three weeks 1 was able tocome to Omaha , and took rooms at 17O3 Cass street , at Mrs. Camp's boarding house. When Ileft home my neighbors concluded I could not live until I reached Omaha , but I arrived all right with-out

¬serious injury. My friends in Omaha said 1 could not recover , but under the doctor's personal

oa-e I continued to improve , and alter two months was able to be about , when I removed to 18OB N-

.19th.

street , where I at present reside , and will give any information desired. The doctor promised tocure me , and has fulfilled his promise. I was cured and freely and cheerfully give the credit to Dr. CGee Wo for curing me. I am convinced of his wonderful skill and superior judgment in treating thesick. I have been cured by him , and owe my very life to his skill and efforts at the last moments I takepleasure in recommending Dr. C. Gee Wo to all suffering humanity , and am satisfied that one trial willconvince the most skeptical of his wouderful curing abilities and his superior method of tr atment

! STAIlCtl COMl'ANT.

The manufacture of starch is p compara-tively

¬

new industry for the stale and , likethe cunning factories , of great Value to thecommunity.

The Beatrice company employs thirty-flvopeople with a yearly pay roll of 15.0 3. Theywill consume in the course of the voar 9J.OOObushels ot corn which improves the localcorn market to a very considerable extent.The output of the factory is pronounced bygood judges to bo equal to tbo output of tbobest eastern factories. In addition to that it-

is put up in very neat and attractive pack¬ages.

The starch has boon sold largely west , thesales on the Pacific coast being especiallylargo. Kansas City jobbers have placedlargo orders at tbo factory. A representa-tive

¬

of the factorv is now in Omaha and it is-

to ho hoped for "tho rfood credit of the citythat some one of the jobbers hero will con-

sent¬

, not only to handle Its starch , but topush its sale.

The full benefit of the abundant crops ofcorn raised in Nebraska will not bo feltuntil the bnlk of it can bo consumed near at-

homo. . The shipping of corn to the far cast ,

and the paying of heavy railroad freightshave kept the farmers down. Starch factoriesfurnish one moans of building up homomarkets for corn.-

Beatrice , and ono at IHuo Springs. Tnoyemploy about twelve men , and pay out in-wages" $3,400 yearly.

Their mills furnish a homo market for200,000 bushels of Nebraska wheat in a year.They sell their output largely in the - sur-rounding

¬

cities and towns. At ono timeOmaha consumed considerable of their Hour ,

but of late they have found moro convenientmarkets for it , and have abandoned thislitold. Tboy are now using Hour sacks ofOmaha manufacture.

The arguments in favor of encouragingflouring mills within the state are the samens in the case of canning factories andstarch factories ; they employ labor and fur-nish

¬

a market for farm products.-

A. . J. Petnoud & Co. are ongncod In themanufacture uf sash , doors , blinds , InsideHulsh , etc. This firm has to contend againstthe same disadvantages as the Omaha llrms-in tbo same business , that is the customof so ninny contractors ot buy-

ing¬

from eastern mills instead of-

at homo. The prices are the sameand the quality the same , but in spite ofthat fact a good many Boatrlco dollars findtheir way into the pockets of the mill ownersof Wisconsin or some other distant statewhen they might bo uopt at Homo to thegreat advantage of the whole stato.

Many times this Is the fault of the lumberdealer ) , who , in soiling a contractor n bill oflumber , are anxious to malto it 'as largo aspossible and Induce him to include ihollnlshi-ngs.
