You Are Asked TO
Protect Flowers
RAMSEY PARK BOARD ASKS
YOUNG AND OLD NOT To DE-
STROY PLANT LIFE.

The Redwood Falls men who con-
stitute the Alexander Ramsey State
Park Board are asking all the people
of this vicinity to form themselves in
to a guard to help protect the plant
life in the park. The request is time
ly, since with each spring, when flow
ers, ferns and other plants in the park
become attractive, it is not unusual to
see people picking the flowers, remov-
ing the plants and shrubs and other
wise disobeying the state law which
forbids any dissertation of state pro-
perty.
Children are unintentionally the
worst offenders in this particular, their
youthful thoughlessness leading them
into plucking the flowers, etc, with
out any consideration of consequences.
Board members are asking that par
ents and teachers carefully explain to
these children the result of this de-
struction, leading them to see that j,
is only by everyone abstaining from
such procedure that the Park remains
beautiful. There are many choice
plants in the Park, it is the intention
of the State and of the Park Board
10 Hudhc IL d pfdHt preserve, anu any
one encroaching on the law is not only
disobeying a public statute, but is do
ing his share toward making the Park
ugly instead of beautiful
Residents are also asked to see that
visitors from away thoroughly under
stand the necessary restrictions plac-
ed for the protection of these plants,
that they are asked to leave them
alone, and, if they refuse to do this,
that they are reported to the proper
officials for punishment. While the
Park is State property it is not in
dividual property and no one has in
dividual rights to any Of its attributes
The State means to maintain its pro-
perty to the best of its ability, the
Park Board aims to do this directly
as representative of the State and
every Minnesotan is asked to help
The attitude of the people of Redwood
Falls toward this will mean much in
educating visitors who may not under
stand the sacredness of preserving
public property.

More Clothes Needed.

Preliminary plans for state wide
collection of clothing in Minnesota
May 1st to 18th have been set in mo-
tion by Mrs. VIM. T. Coe, state direct
or of the clothing campaign for the
Near East Relief.
Already bundles of cast-off gar
ments come into the Near East Relief
office at 3O5 Oneida Building almost
every day. Some are from Minnea-
polls, and some from other points in
the state.
A special campaign last May yield
ed a total of 81, 900 pounds of used
clothes, which filled a big freight car
and was forwarded to New York for
shipment to the Near East. Railroads
and steamships generously furnish
free transportation, and the Navy
Warehouse in Brooklyn handles and
ships all N. E. R. consignments with
out charge. The old clothing contri-
buttons from Minnesota last year was
rated worth $4,000.
Redwood Falls is already making
plans to do its share in this good
work. Anyone interested or having
garments to contribute should cal
Mrs. Carr, who has been appointed to
have charge of the work in our locali-
ty. Mrs. Carr authorizes us to say
that all kinds of clothing are needed
and that shoes are especially accepta-
BILE; also that it is unnecessary to re-
pair garments, as the native women
are more than glad to do the work
Anyone having bundles may notify
Mrs. H. w. Shoemaker or Mrs. Carr
and they will call for them.
Let us all help to make the ship
ment from Redwood Falls substan'
tial one.

State Board
Sends Speaker
j. e. GILLESPIE SPEAKS ON
STATE PRISONS AND IT'S IN
DUSTRIES.

Mr.. j. E. Gillispie, representing the
State Board of Control spent last
week in Redwood County speaking on
the State Prison and it's industries.
The interest in these meetings was
greatly evidenced by the attendance
and the desire to learn more about
the work of the prison. The original
idea of the farmers in placing the in
dustries in the prison was to relieve
the idleness of the inmates and make
them produce something of value to
the farmer, making it possible for
him to establish his own price on
twine and machinery.
These industries have made it pos
sible for the prison to be entirely self
supporting. And it is the only one
of the seventeen State Institutions
that is self supporting. The twine
business has grown to it's maximum
capacity of 25,000, 900 pounds and is
entirely sold out with all possible pro-
duction for the season. Through this
channel alone, it is estimated that
from 10 to Is million dollars has been
saved to the farmers of this state.
The farm machinery department
is still in its infancy but the future
of this department is as bright as
the twine. The state guarantees all
implements for mechanism, material
and workmanship carrying with it
prompt expert service and compulsory
carrying of full line of repairs in ev-
cry agency. These industries are the
only ones operating in the prison and
all being run in the interest OF the
farmers. The information given in
these meetings by Mr.. Gillispie should
be known by every farmer in the
state. Mr.. Gillispie is scheduled to
be back in the county for week in
the fall.
Spraying of fruit trees was demon
strated at six farms last week. 9th
ers are waiting to secure spray pumps
and will have demonstrations this
week.
County Agent Lynn Sheldon is call
ed to Mankato to attend a County
Agents Conference Monday and Tu-
esday of this week.

Wed, May 9th
CAPTAIN DANA SCHMAHL TO
BRING ARTILLERY HERE NEXT
WEEK ON WAY TO FORT.
ONE HUNDRED, TWENTY MEN.
FULL BATTERY WITH FULL
EQUIPMENT TO VISIT CAP
TAIN'S OLD HOME.

A letter received by the Gazette
Tuesday morning states that Com
pany C of the Ninth Regular Field
Artillery, Captain Dana Schmahl COM
manding, will arrive in Redwood
Falls Wednesday afternoon, May 9th
for nights camp. The battery is
on its way to Pierre, S. D. for a thirty
days camp.
Mayor w. T. Wilcox last week re-
ceived communication which reads
in part as follows: "We will require
a camp site approximately 35 by 10
rods, dry level ground with facility
for watering 120 horses. We will
guarantee a thorough cleaning of the
camp site before evacuation. Our
equipment and personel includes 120
well disciplined men, officers, 120
horses and sixteen carriage"
"We have a good baseball team, two
wrestlers, and several boxers and
would be pleased to complete with any
of your local talent in your CITY,"
Robt. w. Ehinger,
1st. It., 9th. F. A.
The Redwood County Fair ground
has been selected as suitable and
commodious camp site and will be
placed at the disposal of the visiting
troops. Company L of the Home
Guards and the members of Melvin
Daskam Post will have charge of the
entertainment of the guests. The
City Council and Commercial Club
will assist the other two organiza-
tions in any way desired.
1t is with the keenest pleasure that
those who knew Dana Schmahl as a
Redwood Falls youngster and who
have been interested in his work in
the years between that time and this,
watch for his return to the old town
in command of the Battery over which
he now has charge. He and his men
will be most heartily welcomed and
shown every courtesy during their
short stay here. They expect to go
from Redwood Falls to Marshall,
camping there for one night also.

Walnut Grove
Takes HOnOrS
HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL NINE
BEATEN SATURDAY; SCORE
1873.

The local High School baseball team
opened it's season at Walnut Grove
Saturday with the worst trimming
ever suffered by Redwood nine.
The count was 1873. The opponents
of the Redwood representatives dis
played some rare baseball playing.
curves and steam seldom found in
High School mines. At the end of the
sixth inning the Walnut Grove cheer
leader led goat trimmed in red and
white around the diamond.
The first Redwood man to the plate,
Tom Gull, was given four straight
balls and took his place on first. By
good base running and head work he
got to third and came home on Juene-
mems hot grounder to short. From
then on the game was all Walnut
Groves. Good fielding and hitting on
their part brought in many Of their
runs, and poor fielding and poorer
head work on Redwoods part helped
the score along.
For Redwood, Gull and Juenemen
performed best in the field while
Peavey and Cole did well on base
running. Second base, catch and
pitcher, of Walnut Grove pulled down
high honors for the opposition.
The local nine plays Franklin High
on the home grounds Saturday and
with the experience at Walnut Grove
behind them should play a wonderful
game.
The line up:
1st -Burmeister
End base-Cull
3rd base-Peavey
Short Stop-Jueneman
Right Field-Englund
Center Field-Cole
Left Field-Corbett
Catcher-Manning
Schraeder.
Sub: Schmidt for Corbett in sixth
inning.
