FORMER LOCAL MAN
SEEKS JUDCESHIP
c. T. Howard, Former Redwood
Falls Attorney, Files for
District Judge in 18th.

The interesting announcement was
made last week that Attorney C. +.
Howard, of Pipestone, has filed as a
candidate for the office of Judge of
the Thirteenth Judicial District.
The office is now held by Judge l..
s. Nelson, of Worthington, who has
filed as a candidate for reelection.
So far as is known here Mr.. Howard
and Judge Nelson are the only two
candidates who have filed up to the
present time.
Mr.. Howard's wide acquaintance
and his long experience and high
standing as an attorney, make him a
formidable candidate, and there are
many who believe that he will be the
winner in the contest now opening.
Attention is called to the fact that
Pipestone county has never in the
past been recognized by having one
of its lawyers advanced to the dis
trict judgeship, while all of the other
counties of the district have had re-
presentatives on the bench.
The district is composed of the
counties of Murray, Cottonwood,
Rock, Mobiles, and Pipestone.
Mr. Howard is well remembered by
the people of Redwood Falls as being
one of the leading attorneys of the
city twenty years ago.

A business transaction bearing con-
siderable interest to the people OF
Redwood Falls and vicinity was COM
pleted this morning wednesday, in
which the j. C. Penney Co. of Red
wood Falls secured long time lease
on the E. A. Pease Hardware build

The J. C. Penney Co. who purchas-
ed the chain of stores last July owned
by the F. S. Jones & Co., of which
the Redwood Falls store was a part,
has outgrown its present quarters
and larger building was necessary.
1t is expected that the Redwood
Hardware Company will lease the
present Penney location, moving in as
soon as conditions permit. The
plumbing business of the E. A. Pease
Hardware will be retained by Ward
and Edward Pease.
The ]. C. Penney Co. expects to

OPEN MARCH 10
All Children Six Years Old on or
Before January 1st, 1929,
are Eligible for Class.

The spring primary for children,
who will be eligible to enter the first
grade next September, will begin
Monday, March 10Th, and will contin-
ue for ten weeks. The children will
assemble in the rooms now occupied
by the Home Economics Department.
This session will begin each after
noon at LIS and close at 1920. Ac-
cording to a statement from Supt.
Wichman all children six years old on
or before January l, 1929, will be ad-
mitted for training.
Parents are urged to bring the chill
dren the first day and those who en-
roll children do so with the under
standing that they will be in regular
attendance. Mr.. Wichman states
that children who come to the spring
primary have the advantage over
those who do not attend, since they
will be able to begin their work in
the fall, having acquired great
many school attitudes which are
helpful in getting started in school.
Enrolment will consist of filling
out an age certificate for children.
These may be filled out the day the
spring primary opens or they may be
secured and returned to Miss Huff,
the teachers training instructor who
will have charge of this work, assist
ed by teacher training girls.

Young Mrs. Goodwin Sefert of Redwood Falls
Meets in Falling Through Ice Above Little Falls
Last Night. Body Found Two Hours Later

The first tragedy of the year oc-
Cured in Redwood Falls when Clar-
ence Seifert, 9 year old son of Mr..
and Mrs. Goodwin Seifert, was
drowned in the Redwood river one
half mile north of the city last
night (Tuesday) at 600 p. m.
Young Clarence, in the company
of Woodrow Mattson, left school and
started through the Ramsey State
Park, crossing the river at the old
bridge above Redwood falls. From
here the two youngsters climbed the
Hogs Back and went down the bluff
to the river again just above Little
Falls.
After playing along the river for
some time young Seifert stated that
he would cross the river on the ice
about three or four hundred feet
above the Little Falls and go home.
His playmate told him that he did
not think it safe enough to cross and
that he had better not attempt it.
Clarence started across and near the
middle of the river the ice gave
away. Both boys screamed for help
with young Mattson running up the
bluff where he again cried for help.
Not being able to make himself
heard Woodrow went down again to

MCGUIRE FOR NEGRO
SAYSSTATE EXPERT
Farmers Send Much Money Out
of Town For Hog Cure That
Does Not Help Disease.

That there is positively no cure
for "Necro" is borne out in an arti-
Gle by County Agent Lynn Sheldon
and from state experts. Thousands
of dollars are leaving the county an
nually for products that are supposed
to cure this dirt disease. In COM
menting on the supposedly way of
cures, Mr.. Sheldon says:
"'Necro', as it is commonly called,
is one of the filth born diseases COM
mon in hogs. This disease is not
hereditary as many people preying
upon farmers today are trying to
make them think. Pigs are born free
from "necro" in any form. None of
these filth diseases such as ''necro",
bull nose, and worms are transmitted
to the young from the dam from
birth. The only way that pigs can
get these diseases or worms is to take
them into their system after birth.
''The following is statement from,
F. w. Peck, Director of Extension
Service. He says "Necro is not
transmitted through inheritance from
the sows to the pigs but the pigs pick
up the germ from infected ground
and the only remedy recommended by
the various experiment stations is the
so-called Mclean County System, or
clean ground for small pigs. When
anyone guarantees cures of this kind,
they can be discounted at once and
surely should be the basis of scien-
tific investigation before one is war
ranted in paying such high price
for the product offered for sale"
"There is positively no cure known
to the veterinary world today says
DR.. c. E. Cotton, Chief and Executive
Secretary of the Minnesota Livestock
Sanitary Board. Therefore, farmers
who buy any of this junk to cure
NEGRO are throwing away perfectly
good money and are bound to have
losses from NEGRO, if that is in their

SHANK IN ROLE OF
GOOD SAMARITAN
Redwood County Aviator Drops
Plane on Ice and Pulls
Automobile from Hole.

Again Gene Shank, Morgan's young
aviator and law student of St. Paul
gets onto the front page of the daily
press. This time not by breaking a
worlds record for making loops with
his plane but rather acting in the cap
acity of the good samaritan.
An account of the deed as given in
the Pioneer Press describes it as fol-
lows:
"Two St. Paul aviators glided down
from the clouds and used their air.
plane to pull an automobile, which
had broken. through the ice, out of
Lake Pepin Monday afternoon.
Scene Shank and E. A. Tourtellotte
of the Pioneer Anyways of Minnesota
were flying from La Crosse to st.
Paul, when they saw the car in a
hole near the shore about mile
south of Stockholm, Wis.
1.-TWO men were standing nearby
waving their arms. They were DR..
R. H. Solson and S. j. Fillman of
Plum City,, Wis.,, who were driving
over the ice to Pepin, Wis.,, when it
gave way.
"Shank and Tourtellotte descended
to the frozen surface of the lake, fas-
tened a chain from the automobile to
the tail skid of their Waco plane,
pulled the car out of the hole and
then continued their flight to St.
Paul"

Again as in 1927 the Gaylord high
school basketball team eliminated the
Redwood Falls entrants at the district
tournament held at New Ulm on
Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
March 1, 2 and 3. But also this team
eliminated all others from further
competition and were hailed as dis
trict champions after beating New
Ulm by 20 to IL count in the finals
Saturday night.
The Redwood team after having
lost and won from Gaylord and the
same with New Ulm was considered
as strong as any district quint. TAX
ing Morgan by 36 to count in their
first game Thursday night the local
boys went into the semi-finals with
Gaylord on Friday night with great
possibilities of winning.
The Gaylord team, under the direc-
tion of B. F. Borchert, the man who
played a team through to a state
championship and into the semi-fin-
ais of the national meet held in Chi
cago in 1926, appeared very similar
to the champions of two years ago.
Practically the same style of basket
ball was used; a wonderful defense
and an offense that usually made
their baskets from beyond the foul
line. The locals were unable to pen
citrate the perfect defense that Gay
lord carried although Peterson, cap
tain of the Redwood team, broke
through for five field goals, 10 of the
fifteen points made by Redwood.
The quarter ended with Gaylord
leading the locals by an 8 to 0 count.
In the second quarter the locals scor-
ed five points to two for their op-
ponents to bring the count to 10 to 5.
In the last two periods the locals
were outscored, the third quarter end
ing 16 to IL and the final whistle
making the count % to Is.
By defeating Redwood Falls the
Gaylord team gained the right to
meet New Ulm in the finals Satur-
day night. Playing the same brand
of basketball as was played against
the local quint Borchert's men gave

where Clarence had fallen through.
There was no sign of the body at this
time.
Leaving the place of the tragedy
young Mattson rushed home and told
his mother of the scene. Mrs. Matt
son Immediately called, Chief-of- -Po-
lice Freise, who in turn gathered
members of the fire department for a
searching party.
The party, with the aid of young
Mattson and a powerful search light
started combing the river at the scene
of the tragedy. For quite some time
ice was broken and poles used in
trying to locate the body. Being un-
successful in the attempt near the
scene of the accident, the searching
party made it's way down stream.
Joe Corbett, flashing the light up
and down the river, discovered an OBJ
ject quite a distance down stream,
just above Little Falls. The object
was lodged on large rock and upon
closer investigation proved to be the
body. This was between $3.50 and 9
p. m.
At this writing the funeral ar
rangements have not been made. A
complete obituary will appear in the
next issue of the Gazette.

Delegates to the county republican

meetings Wednesday evening, March
14th, will be selected on a basis of one
delegate for every fifty voters or
fraction thereof, according to state
ment made today by H. B. West,
chairman Republican County Com
mittee.
This is the same arrangement that
has obtained in previous years, and
is taken from the cast for Republican
candidate for governor at the gen.
eral election in 1924. This will en-
able even the smallest township to
send at least one to the county meet
ing, since no matter how small the
number of votes cast in township
at the last election, it will permit the
selection of a delegate.
The meeting will be held at the
regular polling places in the election
precincts. According to the last
election the election precincts of the
county are entitled to the following
delegates: Brookville 2, Charlestown
l, Delhi 2, Gales 2, Granite Rock l.,
