Carlton E. Rice came up from his
home in Owatonna last week and made
arrangements to cultivate several of
his farms in this county. He left
Thursday for Marshall to prepare
tenants for his farm work on his farms
in Lyon county. Mr.. Rice remarked
to a GAZETTE reporter that he always
advised his tenants to SOW, on low plac-
es as early as the season would permit,
because spring rains always prevent
sowing on those spots later.
Last Monday was the most disagree
able day on record for this county.
The wind blew terrific gale all day
from the northwest and huge clouds
of dust were in the air all the time.
These clouds were SO thick at times
that it was impossible to see over half
mile, and on the prairie it was i'm
possible to see over ten rods. The
GAZETTE reporter returning from Bel
view on bicycle during the after
noon of that day made the trip in just
IS minutes, rs minutes from Belview
to Delhi and 80 minutes from De hi to
Redwood Falls. The wind was in his
back all the time, and it was unneces-
sary to touch the pedals of the bicycle
the greatest portion of the distance.
Passing the Mcdonald farm just
northwest of Delhi the dust was SO
thick as to make it impossible to see
two rods ahead of the bicycle and it
was necessary to hold the machine
back in order to prevent possible
collision.
The creamery will be ready for
operation about May lst.-~ That was
the conclusion arrived at by the di-
rectors last Thursday, when they re-
jected the Rain proposition, which
Mr.. Rain attempted to make more
binding on them, and concluded to
take site offered by the Riheldaffer
estate just south of H. Theiring's resi-
dence, provided a sufficient flow Of
water can be secured. A we'll augur
is already at work boring we'll. The
price to be paid is 500, much bet
ter bargain than the Rain site. Bar
bour & Co.'s agent has promised to
send the machinery as soon as mott
fed by wire that the building is ready
for. the same, and Agent Beecher, OF
the Northwestern, has promised to
have the car covered all the way from
Chicago, So that it will come through
nearly as fast as by express. The
parties interested formed themselves
into stock company and Incorporated
as such. The officers already men
toned we're elected. A skimming
station has been established at Delhi
with Bert. Pease as manager. About
the first day Of May the creamery will
be ready for operation.
