Local History.

Heller's Holstein sale held at Pen
mock, Tuesday, Jan. Is. was probably
the most successful sale Of dairy
COWS ever held in Kandiyohi county.
The sale brought large number Of
progressive farmers from Pennock,
Mamre. Raymond, Kerkhoven, Nor

the fact that the Holstein COW is a
stranger in many parts Of this COM
munity.
Mr.. E. L. Rodegeb, agricultural ex-
pert Of Willmar, opened the sale with
timely and interesting talk on the
great possibilities that dairy farming
offers. He was followed by Mr.. E. B.
Heller who gave word picture of the
phenomenal progress of Holstein cat
tie in America, and the amazing and
rapid change of the bleak cutover
lands in northern Wisconsin into
prosperous and flourishing farms,
stocked with large heavy producing
