Great Volume of Traffic.

Railroad traffic has reached volume in
this busy country which fairly overwhelms
the most efficient and well equipped lines
New rails and locomotives, more cars and
Increased terminal facilities is the cry from

see that the tide of business activity is no
mere passing boom, but a permanent en-
largement of the Industrial and commercial
activities of the republic.

COUNTY FAIR.
Agricultural Display to Occur on
September n and p.

The directors of the Redwood
County Agricultural society have
determined to hold strictly agri-
cultural fair at the grounds on
Thursday and Friday, September 21
and %.
The admission will be free.
There will be no attractions, out
side of the agricultural exhibit, and
business men will not be asked to
donate single farthing to the show.
The State has appropriated about
$215 for premiums on agricultural
products, and the directors, at the
urgent request of number of farm
ers, have decided to scatter this
money among the farmers for prem
iums on such products as they may
enter for competition, and thus keep
Redwood county in line for an
annual appropriation from the State
for agricultural premiums at the
county fair.

THE HELLO SYSTEM.
Men at Work Putting In the Local
Exchange in This City.

A. Williams of Willmar, mem
Der of the Southern Minnesota Tele-
phone Co., has been in the city dur
ing the past week making arrange
ments for the putting in of local
telephone system in this city. Mr..
Williams has rented room on
the second floor of the Redwood
Falls Improvement Co. building,
which will be used as an Office and
exchange for his company.
Quite large crowd of telephone
workers came here with Mr.. Will
liams, and about the same time
several loads of poles came over the
Northwestern. Since that time the
workers have been engaged in
stripping the poles, and getting
them ready for receiving the cross
bars and insulators.
AS soon as all of this work is done
the work of digging post holes and
setting the poles will commence. In
this connection it is well to state that
wherever the wires run east and
west the poles are to be set in the
alleys, and wherever they run north
and south they will have to be
placed on the streets, because no
alleys in the cities run north and
south. In the business district of
the city all poles must be placed in
the alleys. Hence the appearance
of the streets will not be injured
very much by wires strung across
them, while it is expected that in
about all of the residence district,
the company will be able to reach
the houses of patrons from the rear
or from the blind side.
The employees of the company
say that it will require about six
weeks to place the system in work
ing order in this city. During that
time, aside from erecting poles and
stringing wires they expect to place
in the neighborhood of from 20 to
100 telephones in the city, the
largest portion of the number being
in the residence districts.
