Farmers of Prospect township, Davi-
son county. have organized a club to
provide a common meeting place for
social intercourse, and a place where
problems vital Il the everyday life of
the farmer can be discussed rhe plan
is that the club be strictly a farmers
association at which the farmers may
discuss questions bearing directly upon
the problems of farm life, such discus
sions to be supplemented whenever pos
sible by outside men interested and in
formed upon farm topics. The move
ment is certainly a good one and will
no doubt succeed and should spread to
other localities.
The residence portion of the city has
been switched off by the power plant
and lights will not be provided until
repair for the broken engine is received.
In the meantime the business section
and motors will be provided with cur
rent, this being all the load that can
be carried while the big engine is out
of commission. The time necessary to
make the repair is indefinite. A letter
from the engine factory at Minneapolis
vas to the effect that the casting could
not be shipped for two or three weeks
unless the city would be willing to pay
for overtime work. To this the city
agreed. wiring the factory to produce
the casting at the earliest moment.
