AUCTIONEERS CALL
new INTEREST IN
SALES GOOD SIGN
Machinery Prices 60 Per Cent
Higher, Horses rs Per
Cent Above Year Ago
TEAM SELLS FOR 1929
Recovery Program Gets Money
to Buyers, Starting Return
TO Better Times

The demand for livestock and farm
machinery at farm auctions In this
part of the state this season indicates
an increased interest il farming,
Redwood Falls auctioneers stated this
week.
Stock and machinery which. year
ago could hardly be sold are bringing
comparatively good prices this year.
To explain the change one auctioneer
said, "Who wanted farming machin-
cry when corn brought 10 cents and
oats, eight cents"
Farm machinery is bringing 60 per
cent higher prices this year than
last while horses are bringing 25 per
cent more and cattle are selling 40
to so per cent higher than year ago,
auctioneers estimated.
Another sign of better times is
that settlements are made m Or
promptly. A year ago farmer con-
sidered himself fortunate if he re-
-ceived his money three months after
the sale. Now he is usually paid
three days after the sale, they said.
At the Frank Dornfeld sale east of
Redwood Falls recently one horse
brought $140. A team at the Albert
Muetzel sale near Delhi brought $299
and one horse brought $15S. -Four
horses sold between SAB and $158.
The top cow at the Louis Anderson
sale brought $40. A year ago few
cows in this section of the state sold
for more than $25 at auctions.
Much larger crowds are attending
the sales this year, than last and it is
easier to get bids. A year ago peo-
pie came to the sale because they
had nothing better to do, now they
come to buy.
Zone of the best signs that sales
are picking up" one auctioneer said
sis that am selling the horses last
Just as I did in good times. During
the depression had to sell the cattle
last but now the horses are holding
the crowds"
Money from the federal govern
ment is given as the reason for this
revival of activity at auctions. One
auctioneer said, "up until this past
year money for recovery purposes
went to bankers, the railroads and
the big fellows at the top. Now it is
getting into the hands of the farm
ers and the working men, the fellows
who spend it about as quickly as
they get it."

wood Falls public school will begin
Monday, March IL and continue ten
weeks until Friday, May %, it was
announced this week by j. H. Wich-
man, superintendent. The sessions

of schools (Lincoln building). These
age certificates should be properly
filled out and returned to the school

is necessary in order to permit the
Teacher Training department to
make proper arrangements before
this department opens.

must be entered the first day and

ABANDON PLAN TO
RESTORE OLD LAKE
Sewage Disposal Stands in Way
of Resort Project at
North Redwood

The North Redwood dam project
approved month ago by state CWA
authorities to restore popular re-
sort lake, will not be built this spring
due to complications which have
arisen in regard to sewage entering
the lake.
This developed Thursday last week
when the Redwood Falls council
members tabled plan to give the
city's sewage complete treatment and
pipe it around the lake. Their de-
cision was based on the fact that the
city would have had to buy $4,000
to $4,000 worth of material and be-
cause it is very improbable that the
job could be completed by May l
when all CWA work is to end.
After the state CWA officials ap-
proved the plan, the state board of
health ruled that since partly treat
ed sewage would be flowing into the
lake, it would not be suitable for re-
sort purposes.
1t was then supposed that by COM
pleting the plant which is to be con-
structed this spring for primary
treatment, as a CWA project with
the city buying the material, the
boards objection would be met. 1t
developed, however, that even with
complete treatment it would be ne
cessary to pipe the water from the
plant around the new dam, at an ex-
pense of several thousand more for
pipe. The possibility of piping the
partly treated sewage around the
dam, which was acceptable to the
board, was given little consideration
since the pipe would empty very close
to North Redwood.
It was estimated that $4,000 would
be required in CWA money for labor.
Since the eounty's quota is now only
$40 men and there is no definite as
surance that even that number will
remain on the payroll until May 1, it
was considered inadvisable to risk
starting the project.

CORN-HOG SIGN-UP
is WELL UNDERWAY

With a possible 2,479 producers in
the county, early Indications point to
an 90 to 80 pei lent sign up Tor the
cOrn-hog plan or total of some
lyUU contracts Tor the county. OF the
remaining ~ per cent, returns from
statements submitted show clearly
that adverse conditions covering their
farming operations in 1852 and 1866
have not given them chance to quail
fly for the reduction program for 1884.
Taking Delhi township as an index,
with possible participation by 96 pro-
ducers whose contracts are filed in the
county agents office, some interesting
figures have been obtained on pre-
liminary tabulation of returns. As
Stunning that the figures given on the
contracts will stand up under examin-
alton by the permanent township
committee, Delhi township will re-
ceive a total benefit payment Of
$4,000 Of this sum $4,000 will rep
resent rental payments for land taken
out of production and the remaining
sum of $35, 100000 will be the hog re-
duction benefit payment.
From the Delhi index, it is estimat-
ed that Redwood county will receive
total benefit payment in excess of
enc million dollars.
To date Is townships have repor-
ted to the county agents office with
contracts taken from over 1000 pro-
ducers. With II more townships to be
visited by sign-up teams and the clean
UP campaign following, it is expected
that the sign up for the county will
approximate 1900 contracts.
Every effort is being made to keep
the cost Of administering the pro-
gram at low level, so that the pro-
Queer may receive the maximum Of his
benefit payment, less . reasonable
