| Notices are out for the district
meeting of the Minnesota Farmers
Elevators association. to be held at
Wabasso Dee. 21st, commencing with
the morning session at 10 o'clock.
E. G. Dunn Of Mason City, Iowa,
who made a strong impression here
last winter as an exponent of the
rights of the shippers, will be on
hand at Wabasso, and it is expected
that a number representatives of
our local elevator company will go.
The cold storage last summer
helped out the farmers. By means
of it the local buyers held eggs at Is
cents when neighboring towns were
paying shilling. And it helped the
, merchants by drawing farmers
, trade. 1t seems small thing but
, the egg industry is quite a live wire
in Redwood county and the town
that will give two or three cents
more draws lot Of trade from the
others.
Ralph Tenney and Fred Prior have
been trapping in partnership on the
, Tenney slough southeast of town.
The boys stay a part Of the time in
the farm house on the land and have
been quite successful. Saturday
they bagged 18 rats and during the
season have trapped. shot and
speared over 200 rats, besides minks
and other fur-bearing animals. For
two lads $40 to $50 apiece during
the season when they have nothing
else to do is quite Windfall.
Frank Lobdell and Gus McGettrick
are not waiting for furs to come to
them but are rushing around pick
ing up good skins wherever they can
find them. That their prices and
cash payments are satisfactory to
the trappers is indicated by the fact
that they picked up 1000 rat skins,
81 mink and about 80 pelts of other
fur bearing animals in a days tour
up near the Milwaukee road last
Monday. In the few weeks the new
firm has been buying they have col
lected fifteen or twenty thousand
skins and put lot OF. money into cir
culation.
