Owing to the vast amount OF
work and time necessarily consum-
ed in the reorganization it has been
impossible to secure just the attrac-
tions and make certain arrangements
desired. Carnival companies and
syndicate shows were scheduled a
long ways ahead of our fair dates
before the reorganization was under
way, making it necessary to take
such features as could be secured at
the late date. But by getting prop
erly started this year the society
will be in a position to pull off sue
cessful events in succeeding years.

DEATH OF G. H. RUSSELL.
Death is Peculiarly Unfortunate One
for Redwood Falls.

A telegram was received here last
Friday from Frank G. Hubbard to
the effect that his uncle, George H.
Russell, the special partner of the
clothing firm Of Frank G. Hubbard
& Co. of Redwood Falls, bad passed
away at his home in Winthrop, N.
Y, that morning.
Mr.. Russell received a paralytic
stroke about two weeks ago, and
a second stroke came shortly after
the first, causing his physicians to
announce that Mr.. Russell could
not live but short time. and on re-
ceipt of the news Mr.. Hubbard
started for Winthrop, reaching
there three or four days before the
demise.
The funeral was held at Winthrop
on Monday, and Mr.. Hubbard re-
NAMED in that town until evening,
when he started for his Red wood
Falls home. The deceased was
about 81 years of age, leaving a
wife and five children, all of the
latter grown up. Mr.. Russell was
held in high esteem in the Win
throp community. He leaves a
valuable estate.
The death of the special partner
will make no difference in the bust
ness of Hubbard & Co. of Red wood
Falls. At the request of the de-
ceased. after the second stroke, ar
engagements were made whereby
Frank is to continue here undis-
turbed by the process of probating
the Russell estate, Mr.. Russell hav-
ing full confidence in the business
ability of his nephew to make good
at every point.
The death will be more generally
regretted in Red wood Falls when il
is known that Mr.. Russell was to
have visited here during Septem-
Der, the object of his proposed visit
being to purchase a certain bust
ness lot and commence the erection
of handsome brick business home
for the firm of Hubbard & Co. The
stroke was just few days before
Mr.. Russell was to have started for
this city, and he intended remain
ing here for an outing. The build
ing would have been completed
this fall. Whether Frank will
branch out according to the plans

Redwood County Fields Keep Up Pre-
viOuS Good Records.

Despite the cold spring of 1905
and that but very little corn was
knee high on July 4th, the corn
crop of Redwood county will be one
of the largest and best ever grown
in the history OF the county.
The arrival of last Saturday night
without even the Indication of a
frost meant that practically all of
the Red wood county corn crop had
passed the danger period, and that
it could not be affected by cold
weather after that time. Many
fields had ripened, and some were
cut. long before Saturday, but ex-
perienced farmers fixed that day as
the date when the Redwood county
corn crop would pass the danger
line.
Since then there has been no in
dication of frost and it is possible
that the struggling corn in extreme
ly low places, or in the few fields
planted very late, will even pro-
duce good quality ofsthe cereal.
The 1905 crop that has already
passed out of danger is of high
quality, and at the county fair next
week there will be some good spec
linens placed on exhibition. The
crop is large enough to warrant the.
statement that many bushels will
be shipped out of the county this
year.

DAIRY & rood EXHIBIT
Commissioner Slater will Bring Inter
esting State Exhibit to Red
wood County Fair.
Court House Hall Assigned to Mr.. SIa-
ter, who will Display Pure
Food Products.

One of the most interesting fea-
lures in the different departments
of the state is the work in the dairy
and food commissioner Office, and
so important has the work become
to the general public that E. K.
Slater, the dairy and food commits.
sioner, who has done SO much tow
ards the upbuilding of the depart
ment, concluded this year that it
would be wise public policy to make
up an exhibit of the work of his of
fee, and visit such towns and fairs
as would ask for the same during
the present year.
That the exhibit has already be-
come popular is evidenced from the
fact that fair associations all over
the state have been making applica-
tions for it, and last week Mr.. Sla-
ter decided to put second exhibit
on wheels-the latter for northern
Minnesota, and to start ia at Alex
andria this week.
The original exhibit will come to
Redwood Falls, and Mr.. Slater will
accompany it personally, next We'd
nesday, to remain for the three days
of the fair, according to assurances
received by one of the directors
from Mr.. Slater last Saturday.
So important is this exhibit re-
garded by the officers of the fair
that it was deemed advisable to give
the commissioners all OF the court
room of the court house, where be
will have ample room to display his
exhibit jars, make his demonstra-
tons, and leave plenty of room for
people interested to view the work
and listen to explanations offered
by the department..

Since the opening Of the season
the eantaloupe crop has ripened fast
and the shipments have increased
rapidly. This week thus far the
total shipments from the cantalOupe
district Of the Valley have averaged
about fourteen cars daily.
Last week the New York market
was excellent. $3.50 to $3.50 being
realized. As the cost Of express.
etc, TO New York is less than 81
it will be seen that the net returns
are very satisfactory.
Pittsbury shipments have been
realizing 81.
Watermelons have been bringing
unusually good figures at both Colo
RADIO Springs and Denver per

The high water mark Of shipments
promises to be reached about the

The probabilities are that the
total shipments will be about half Of
last year.-Rocky Ford Enterprise.

La Junta is not the only town on
the Santa Fe pike that is alarmed by
cut-ofYs and rumors Of cut-offs. A
recent iasue Of the Trinidad Adver-
tiser contained an article in which
the writer tells some plain truths
about the cutoff alarum that are
patent to the most casual observer.
The Advertiser says:
Again has talk been started Of
the so-called cutoff through New
Mexico which the Santa Fe is to
eventually use as main line. This
time the talk has its origin in the
delay in starting work on the Ration
low level tunnel.
1T is true that a cutoff will be
eventually built from the present
terminus Of the southern branch of
the Santa Fe to a junction with the
main line in New Mexico, but this
will not by any means have the
effect Of side-tracking the present
main line through Trinidad and
Southeastern Colorado. The A. T.
4 8. r. officials are themselves the
first to laugh at such a proposition
being carried through in the near
future, whatever may be done in q
doeen years from now.
Building the cutoff will not
make the southern line available for
henvy business or for high speeds.
For nearly its entire length out Of
Topeka this line is constructed Of

Elder now lies a wreck. Last season
the cicerones wanted the road dug SO
that 1t would pass to the east of the
island and give them straight run
to a point below Gobie. but through
some reason, probably because of The
limited appropriation, the work was
not performed.

Cleveland, o.. Jan. s6.--The Iron
Trade Review this week says:
''The unusual rate at which the steel
works and finishing mills are turning
out material, the inadequacy OF active
blast furnace plants of leading steel
companies to keep pace with the de-
mands upon them from steel depart,
Iments and the fact that specifications

to the mills In such volume that In a
number of lines each week adds to the
amount of business ahead Of the mills
all are significant factors in the pres
ent situation. The buying Of Bessemer
pig iron by two steel companies. was
the main development in that market

came from spectators. and some froE,

and Alton B. Parker. The meeting is
stated to have been arranged by Nor

1t is stated by the Herald that Mr..

Expressed the belief that the west and
south must have the dominant voice in
the management OF the democratic ia.
tional interests. He predicted that
within few years there will be great
internal changes IN both party organ
izations and men who now call them
selves democrats will come out openly
as republicans while professed repub-
licans will declare themselves demo-
Gratis; that the new strength for the
democratic party win come from the
western, while the rev republicans will
appear in the eastern states and that
the trust question" will oyershadow
everything else in the next campaign.
There was no discussion of any finan-
cial question.
