The south church is tho only team which has defeated that team hav- ing pulled the trick twice On the otEcr hand, the tail-end Trinity MethoiistS have won only two c0mes-both from the South church.
 Every year this strange outfit has ruined the champions chances of re- beating. Three years ago it topplcd inc First Iut utherans, 1925 champs, and the St. Matts won.

 The new golf bail which will be official in 1@3l is on the market and can be procured from some Of the pros and sporting good stores It Weishs a trifie less and is a little larger than the present ball.
 A few players have tried il out under present conditions which may not make the trial worth much as basis of opinion as to the char actcristiCs of the new ball, as the ialrWays are very fast. But it's use provides quite diversion.
 Two of Us used it last Friday after the rain and scores of so and 7S were made with it. Under normal conditions the scoring probably would have been higher.
 lt is an easy ball 10 hit off the fair way with wood or iron, as it presents more of q mark and stands up on the grass better than the present ball, t..
 fcing lighter than the standard ball, it is affected more by the wind With the wind it has long carry and against it the ball loses distance. Its run is much shorter so that most of the distance is obtained in the carry.
 High pitch shots stay close to where they land, which is an advan- tage in making short approaches The ball will bring back into the game one of the most beautiful shots in gOlf-thc pitch which has been replaced by the pitch -and-run.
 If is an ideal ball with which 10 putt II hclds the line perfectly and aNpaars 10 ho easier to control sne, ciany on down hill putts, I think the new hall will win more friends on tho putting greens than off the tees or though the fairways.
 The highly skilled players will adapt themselves to the new ball and it's use will probably not make much difference in their scoring. The duffcrs have new handicap in store for them. for the ball takes fear full curve when sliced.
 The only disadvantage in eNperi- menting with if is that it throws one off his game with the present Nhall. If you feel that your present game couldn't he much worsp buy one of the new balls and set new thrill out of golf

time; the visitors getting five points
in the first few minutes Of play of the
third quarter.
Peterson, Worsech and Bravinder
were not long in getting going. They
cut down the Lamberton lead and
steadily forged ahead to make Ia
points in the last half of the game,
while the visitors scored six.
The game showed that the team
was not worried about being behind;
it revealed that they could come from
behind to win game.
Bravinder and Worsech tied for
scoring honors, Bravinder getting
three field goals while Worsech got
two field counters and brace of
free throws. Peterson scored two
field goals with Melges getting free

a II to 6 score Tuesday night, jan
uary Is, the locals scored their sixth

advantage of 3 to 2 count. The half
ended with the locals leading by a
point, 5 to 4. Morton was unable to
score in the third period, while Red

Redwood County Agriculture

The pessimists say agriculture MAY back"
The optimists say agriculture is COMING back!'
But residents of Redwood County who have watched
bank statements during the year just closed Agr
culture HAS come back" and merchants of Redwood
Falls comparing the hoday-sale receipts of this
with those of 1927, make unqualified agreement.
Statements that the local situation is extremely
hopeful justified in the face of reports of earnings
made by local banks Under the able direction of
A. c. Bureser its president and with the assistance OF
R. A. Cooper the vice president and other members of
its staff the State Bank of Redwood Falls has made
large earnings factor in the prosperity of the
community and reports increase Of more than
$115OOOOO in its deposits during the year.
Reports come from the Citizens State Bank which
started last May under the direction of L. R. Ewart but
here to there has been healthfu growth, passing all
expectations of the and present the status of the
bank as both gratifying and satisfying.
The connection between Redwood County's agricul-
tura conditions bank conditions within her bound
aries is very evident Banks and business here
have no other industry but agriculture upon which to
depend the of the enterprises in the towns
are indicative the conditions the farms Banks and
businesses show good for the year. In addition
banks show that vast of money, all coming from
the countys of ncome have been and still
in those institutions. &
Redwood County farms HAVE come back-not to
the boom condition of number of years ago, but to
healthy normal condition of prosperity Money talks!
