Three State Roads
Designated Tues.
Morgan, Belview, Delhi and Sea-
forth Pleased by Action of
County Board

Announcement was made last
week that the road beside the
Northwestern track between
Morgan and Redwood Falls had
been designated as a state road
and would Immediately be re-
built and repaired to meet state
requirements.
At the same time two roads
of equal Importance with this
road, were also designated as
state roads. These are the roads
running between the limits of
the villages of Delhi and Bel
view, and the road running north
from Seaforth to the state road.
The residents of this section
of Redwood County have waited
for a long time for these roads,
petitions having been presented
to the County Board some time
ago. They are much pleased
that the final action has been
taken in the matter and very
grateful to Commissioner Jas
Gaffney, who has been insistent
in his demands that the petit
tions for these roads be granted

New Bank Across
From kahIer House
F. w. Philbrick Makes Plans to
Occupy Building within Next
Sixty Days

The property opposite the
Kahler House was recently pur-
chased by F. w. Philbrick, who
expects to start the erection of
a new bank building on the site,
within the next two weeks. This
site, 100 feet square, which has
been held at $4,000 is one Of the
best business locations in the
city. The purchase was made
from T. A. Sherk of Mankato,
who has been the owner of the
property for some time. Plans
for the new bank building have
been submitted to Mr.. Phil
brick and he has two designs
now under consideration. By
rushing the work Mr.. Philbrick
hopes the new building will be
ready for occupancy by the mid.
die Of September. The new
building will face the west.
1t is possible that another
firm may purchase a building
lot from Mr.. Philbrick and the
two buildings will then be erect.

not been positively decided yet

Tennis Court Is
Proving Popular
Redwood Falls Reviving Enthu-
siasm for This Outdoor
Game

The Redwood Falls tennis
courts are becoming extremely
popular, a full quota of players
and a number of spectators
spending as many evenings as
the weather will permit, in the
enjoyment of this splendid ex-
ercise. The courts are in ex-
cellent condition considering the
amount of rain this season, and
many new enthusiasts have been
made during the past few weeks.
Many embryo champions ex-
hibit their skill on the courts,
but up to the present the work
of w. H. Gold, Donald Gold, T.
O. Streissguth and G. A. Schild-
knecht attract the most atten-
tion. The work of these four
is absolutely out Of the amateur
class and is likely to bring fame
for Redwood Falls in some tour
nament in the near future if con-
testants hardy enough to cross
rackets with them can only be
found.

REFUSED TO COME
HOME TIL MORNIN'

Two of Redwood Falls most
gallant young men undertook to
drive out into the country after
the rainstorm Saturday night,
to take home a couple of young
ladies who were marooned in
town by the storm. After they
got about mile from town the
car wavering under the one
hand guidance, slipped over the
grade and refused to come back
up. But it didn't matter great
ly as, with the side curtains on,
it afforded excellent shelter for
a nights encampment. At day
break the quartet trooped back
to town, on foot, a bit sleepy and
hungry, and with muddy foot
wear, but otherwise none the
worse for the nights encamp-
ment. 1t is source OF. some
satisfaction to the girls of Red
wood and vicinity to know that
cake" and 'Pinkie" always go
prepared O make a night of it,
and are equipped for any emer-
gencV.

STOCK POISONED WITH
PARIS GREEN

The Fred Whitcomb farm was
the scene Sunday of a case OF
poisoning from Paris Green. 1t
seems Mr.. Whitcomb had put a
package containing some Paris
Green overhead in the barn in
some place that the horses had
access to or that they became
loose and got to resulting in the
poison being spilled, and part of
it eaten by one horse and by his
cows. The horse recovered but
the three cows were all killed.
This poison cannot be too care
fully handled as for some reason
it is one which stock seems to
like and will get the poison if
there is the least chance of SO
doing.-Morton Enterprise.

Barn Burns After
Heavy Wind Storm
w. March Loses Building But
Team and Other Contents
Are Saved

The barn on the w. March
place, about two blocks north of
the Farmers Elevator, was de-
stroyed by fire last Saturday
night soon after the severe rain
and wind storm. How the fire
started is not yet decided. 1t
apparently started in the wood
work as the hay was practically
untouched by it, and is probably
the result of the lightning.
C. E. Lamberton, who first dis
covered the flames, was instru-
mental in rousing Mr.. March and
in saving the team which was in
the barn. The horses, which
are exceptionally fine ones, were
very much frightened and were
saved with some difficulty. The
harness and vehicles were also
rescued, but the building is al
most a complete wreck. The
loss was fully covered by insur-
ance.
