Congressman to
Address Farmers
FRANK CLAGUE M. C. TO AD-
DRESS MASS MEETING AT RAM
sEY PARK NEXT sUNDAK
DIRECTOR PECK HERE.
FARM LOANS. COAL PRICES.
FARM PRODUCTS, PRICES ETC. l
TO BE DISCUSSED.

A Farmers Mass Meeting has been
called by Max Treu, Redwood County
Agent, to be held at Ramsey Park on
Sunday afternoon, September Is, for
the purpose of discussing the vital
problems confronting the farmer at
the present time.
Congressman Frank Clague, who
has just returned from Washington
has a wonderful story to tell and will
be the main speaker. Director of
Agriculture, Mr. Peck, will probably
also be present. Mr.. Clague will dis
cuss whether farm products in the
form of grain, hogs, and cattle, will
go still lower or whether the farmer
may look for an increase of prices
during the next so days. He will also
discuss the loan problem, since a large
sum of money has been voted by Com
gress for the purpose of assisting
needy farmers. Mr.. Peck will discuss
subjects of interest to farmers.
That Congressman Clague is going
to speak plainly and to tell the people
the truth, was demonstrated Labor
Day when he referred to the big coal
mine owners as robbers. He will tell
why the public is forced to pay such
outrageous prices for coal. He has
always been conservative in his public
utterances and what he will say Sun
day will bear considerable weight. 1t
therefore behooves every farmer to
hear his Congressman.
The Scenic City Band will furnish
music and the Redwood Falls Com
mercial Club will assist with the meet
ing. Il appeal to every farmer to
come and hear real reliable talk of
encouragement and optimism" said
Mr.. Treu.
When the fact is taken into consid-
Grafton that the finances and prices
of farming are in a turmoil, meet
ing of this nature is very timely. The
program will be given at two o'clock.

Texas Flood Does
Much Damage
WRECKED BUILDINGS SEARCH
ED FOR BODIES--41 IN MORGUES
CITY FEEDS THOUSANDS
San Antonio. Sept. 10.

With Al bodies in the morgue and
the death list expected to reach $50,
some estimates being $50, and pro-
perty damage of SIS 100000, San
Antonio was extending relief to thou
sands made homeless in the worst
flood in the city's history.
Extensive damage was reported
from Hutto, South Austin, Cameron,
Belton and other small towns as the
result of rain and wind The damage
in San Ontonio was augmented by re-
ports of $1,O0O,0OO damage near Cam
eron, hundreds of thousands of dollars
damage to the south central Texas
cotton crop, railway bridges, high
ways, villages and farm property.
Many Persons Missing.
Up to late hour tonight Al bodies
had been recovered with many unac-
counted for. In the lowlands on the
river banks near the town, where
Mexicans make their homes, a scene of
horror was presented with entire conf
munities homeless, their shacks wash
ed down stream and many missing.
The homeless are being cared for by
the Red Cross and other organizations,
the city market and other public build
ings being turned into places of re-
fuge.
Mothers Hunt Children.
The outlying districts presented a
scene of added horror with hysterical
women and men searching for lost
children. One woman attempted to
throw herself into the river, when the
bodies of three of her six children
were still missing. The father was
sent to hospital raving maniac.
Railroad Trains Mareoned.
The property damage will run into
the millions, crops in the flood area
are ruined. Roads have been destroy
ed. Railroad tracks have been wash
ed out and trains are stalled hopeless
ly.
Late today communication was re-
established with Austin, the state CAPT
tai and fears that a greater loss OF
life would result when news of the
flood at Austin was received, were
allayed. The damage to property at
Austin was estimated at S100, 900.
Small homes along the banks Of the
Colorado river were washed away.
Crops and roads were badly damaged.
Creedmore, suburb near Austin, was
hard hit, an oil mill and schoolhouse
being practically destroyed.
Work of relieving the flood sufferers
is well under way here. More than
$4,000 has been subscribed by bust
nessmen.
Field after field has been ruined by
the falling water and driving winds.
At Bolton, Rockdale, Cameron, Tenn
pie, Sparks and dozen other central
Texas towns rain fell ranging from 8
to 18 inches as reported Streams
were turned into rushing torrents.
The Little River-usually a lazy NOV
ing stream-was reported five miles
wide at points where it spread over
the lowlands.
More than 1000 homes were inun-
dated in San Antonio, most Of them
wrecked by the IL to Is feet of water
that rushed into the city from the San
Antonio river near midnight as most
of the city was asleep, hurling build
ings from foundations and crumpling
them against one smother.

Time to Make
Entries for Fair
HOG ENTRIES TO CLOSE NEXT
MONDAY, SEPT. 1s; ALL 9TH
ERS CLOSE SEPT. 26.
SPECIAL RIBBONS GIVEN.
RACE ENTRIES GROWING; FREE
ATTRACTIONS PROMISE
GOOD SPORT.

With the Redwood County Fair less
than two weeks away, Redwood Coun-
ty farmers, Stock raisers and every
sene else who has products worthy of
exhibition are preparing to make their
entries. Since hog entries close next
Monday, September 10, it behooves all
hog raisers to mike their entries as
early this week as possible and to ent-
er all other stock and products as early
as convenient. It is not necessary to
wait until the entry day to make these
entries and it will greatly facitate the
work il it can be done before the rush
on the last day
Each hog raiser is limited to ten
pens this year and there have already
been several big entries in this depart
nnent. Last year five hundred hogs
were shown and it is probable that
there be at least that number this
year A. P. Rams of Springfield has
already made reservation for his herd
which has been shown throughout the
season at state and county fairs of
the Northwest, and other hog entries
have been made from Evan, Fairfax,
Renville and Sleepy Eye as well as by
REDWOOD county DTeeOeTS.
Good Stock Shown.
Horses will not be e-shown this year
but it is evident that there is to be
a large showing of pure bred cattle.
L. E. Potter and Son of Springfield
are bringing their fine herd of Here
fords and ]. F. Potter of Springfield
will show a fine string of Shorthorns.
Jens Schou of Morgan has also made
reservation for his Holstein Herd.
Shorthorn Breeders are especially
favored this year since the American
Shorthorn Breeders Association has
offered special ribbon prizes. These
prizes came too late for announcement
in the regular premium list but they
are as follows.
Best three head, get of one sire.
Champion Shorthorn bull.
Reserve Champion bull.
Champion Shorthorn female.
Amusement Features.
AmusesneAt features are not to be
lacking from either the day or even
ing shows. Arrangements have been
made for the appearance at each show
of the Seven Tumbling Demons, an
act which was purchased only after it
had been seen in action at the Jackson
County Fair by eight visitors from
Redwood Falls. All those who saw it
pronounced it the best free act they
had ever seen at county fair and it
was therefore made a part of the daily
program here. This is only one of
six free acts which are given before
the grandstand each afternoon and
evening. With them will be the usu-
al good firework, program, dancing
throughout each afternoon and even
ing and number of other fun making
features.

EVERY department of Game; Co
Der and Galley Stand out as
stars at Goal Shooting.

In a brilliant game of basketball
at the. 7. w. c. A. auditorium last
Saturday night, the Marietta Y w q
A defeated the Atlanta Y. w. bv the
overwhelming score Of Sc to 6. We
say brilliant, but this appeIation can
only be applied to the playing Of The
local girls, The Atlanta girls PLAYED
hard and stubbornly but they were
no match for the fast, well-coached
Marietta team.
The five man defense of the local
team worked to perfection, so perfect
IN fact. that it could very seldom be
told whether the visitors were good
goal shooters or not, as their chances
at goal were very few during the en-
tire game. 1t is very likely that there
was about an equal percentage of
bad shots on either side, but the out
standing fact was that the brilliant
RAISING of the Mariettans kept the
ball IN their possession at least nine
ty per cent of the time.
In the last third local second string
girls were used and even they decid-
edly outclassed the Atlanta girls.

luded as to longer class modern girls
