The operation of the Omaha Cooperative Live Stock Com mission Exchange has been so profit able in the last year that fully C5 per cent of the expenses for handling the cattle and hogs at the Omaha yards have been rebated to the members of the cooperative exchange. As a re sult the exchange is handling all the livestock it is equipped to take care of and will be enlarged to serve its members.
