The farmers of Renville county,
just across the river from Delhi, and
up and down the river for a distance,
are considering the advisability of
putting in separating station to be
run in connection with the Redwood
creamery, The plan is to deliver the
cream, after it has been separated
from the milk, to Thos. Treadwell,
superintendent of the Delhi station,
and have that gentleman bring the
Renville product to Redwood Falls
along with the cream separated at the
Delhi station. The Redwood cream
cry has room for all the cream within

Arlington Enterprise: The Citizens
Bank of Redwood Falls has supend-
ed. It seems strange that a bank
should succumb to such a fate in a
community where gold nuggets as
large as hens eggs are kicked about
the streets every day, and coal mines
and oil wells abound in profusion. It
is also stated that diggers in one of
the gold mines there are talking of
inaugurating a stike on account of
their wages being far in arrears. This
is truly remarkably peculiar condi-
ton of affairs. Redwood Falls should
try the effect of diversified farming,
and instead of cultivating gold exclu-
sively, raise cereals, vegetables and
live stock.

past week to the effect that A. A. Van

Marshall. The rumor had it that Mr.
VanWinkle was to go to Sheldon
Iowa. When asked about the rumol
last Monday morning Mr.. VanWinkle
stated that he had no intention ot
moving. 1t appears, however, that S
E. Bailey, who owns the building
wants to get Mr.. VanWinkle out ot
the hotel and have him succeeded by
Mr.. Sargent. Whether satisfactory
arrangement can be perfected where
by Mr.. VanWinkle will retire remain.
