FAIR ASSOCIATION
WILL PRESENT JULY
4TH CELEBRATION
Due to Deficit From Fair, Ass0-
citation Plans Enormous July
4th Celebration
RACING WILL FEATURE
Many Fast Horses Will Be Book
ed for Program; Fireworks
and Dancing

AS a result of meeting of the di-
rectors of the Redwood County Agri-
cultural Society held last Monday
night, 4th of July celebration will
be presented under the auspices OF
the Fair Association in 1880. The
celebration idea came as a result of
the deficit suffered by the Fair this
season, due to the inclement wealth
er.
According to tentative plans, the
celebration will be the biggest ever
presented here on a 4th of July. 1t
will carry a full Pike, approximately
as complete as the Fair time pike.
Besides the regular old-time 4th of
July celebration, there will be pro-
gram featured with horse racing,
presenting some of the fastest hors-
es obtainable in the northwest. 1t is
expected that besides the races in the
afternoon, there will be free attrac-
tions.
In the evening there will be fire.
works and dance in the pavilion.
Although there have been no de-
finite plans made for the celebration,
the gate admission will be reduced
considerable, probably to 25 cent,
charge. In regard to the attractions
for the event, it has also been in
timated that for a morning event
there will be ball game between
two fast clubs of this section of the
| state.
AS Redwood Falls has not had a
4th of July celebration for several
years, this event sponsored by the
Fair Association will probably be
the biggest in this part of the coun-
try. More details regarding the pre-
sentation will be made later.

Sporty Local Golf Course to be
Made Sportier With Many Changes

east of the present Number 8.
The tee for this last hole will be
placed down near, the present
Number 8 tee.
Retaining the present Number
9 hole for practice purposes be-
cause of it's convenience and
nearness to the club house, the
members will have a chance to
warm up on their approaching
and putting before starting an
official round.
The only holes changing par in
the new order are five, six and
seven. These holes which form
erly had pars of five, three and
three respectively, will now carry
a straight four on each hole.
The local club, this year, is
better off financially than ever
before. The membership is also
larger than it has ever been.
Taking in more money on green
fees this past season.. the club
directors feel justified in making
the course over into one of the
sportiest nine hole grounds in
the state. Practically all of the
stock issued last year has been
disposed of.

Waste Flax Straw Factory May
be Erected; Representatives Here

A. M. Lederer and Mr.. Curtiss, re-
presentatives of a new organization
that will manufacture insulation wall
board, were in Redwood Falls last
Monday and were in conference with
L. r. Ewart and DIR. III. B. Cole, pre-
sident of the Commercial Club, re-
garding the opening of factory
here. The two representatives are
motoring through the counties in
Minnesota where flax straw produc-
ton is the greatest for the purpose
of deciding where the first plant will
be erected.
With Redwood county producing
about $4,000 tons of flax straw per
year, location in Redwood Falls was
well thought of, although nothing
was definitely decided at the meeting
with the Chicago representatives. The
first plant to be erected viii require

men stated that a fair price would
be paid to the farmer for the waste
flax straw.
In writing to the Commercial Club
of Redwood Falls, regarding the diff
ferent phases of erection of a build
ing, etc., Mr.. Lederer stated that a
two story building would be needed
about $50 feet by 600 feet and boil
er plant for approximately 400 H. p
The plant would hire about 100 un-
skilled laborers.
Although there has been no action
taken by the Commercial Club on the
project, it will be discussed at the
next meeting. It is the desire of the
Club officers that as many members
be present as possible for this meet
ing.
The Redwood gazette., 1929-10-02

Meeting last Monday night to
make the elusive par more elu-
sive, the directors of the Red
wood Golf Club decided upon
complete change for the local
course for next years play. AS
soon as men can be hired the
work will start on the course.
Starting with hole Numebr 1
and continuing through and in
cluding Number 4, the greens
will all be remade and leveled.
Giving the course another dogs
leg, the new number five hole
will be completely finished for
play next season. The Number
6 tee will be built south of the
Number green, with the green
for this hole located about 100
feet north of the present Number
6 green.
AS Number 6, the Number z
green will be built new and locat-
ed within a few feet of the pre-
Number 5 green. The present
Number z green will be changed
in number only, to Number 8.
The last hole, Number 9 will be
built new about 100 feet north
