Plan to Dig Trench
To Rid Redwood of
Sewer Contamination

In an effort to remove sewage from
the Redwood river below where the
preliminary treatment plant is built,
Redwood Falls councilmen are seek
ing approval of an ERA project to
have a three-foot trench dug in the
bottom of the river to speed up the
flow.
The condition below the outlet was
called to the attention of the council
by landowners near it and it was de-
cided to try this solution. Fred H.
Anthony, city engineer, applied to
Richard Cook, county engineer, for
approval of the project Tuesday. 1t
is hoped that the state will add its
approval to that of Mr.. Cook in time
to start work in a few days. AS part
of the river has a rock bed, it will be
necessary to do some dynamiting.

CAR TAKES DITCH
TO AVOID SMASHUP
Four Children, Eight Adults in
Two Cars Saved Injuries
by Quick Thinking

Rapid thinking on the part of Jo-
seph M. Corbett, who was driving
John Schmid's car, probably saved
the lives of several children and
adults Sunday afternoon near Olivia.
Mr.. Corbett drove into the ditch to
avoid hitting a car ahead of him
which swung out as if to turn left
and then suddenly crossed over to
turn onto a sideroad on the right.
The Schmid car barely licked the
fender of the other car in which four
children and four adults were travel
ing. The Schmid car did not tip over
but was damaged.
Mr.. Schmid struck the top of his
car, injuring his head and Mr.. Cor
bett and Wyman Corbett and Louis
Sommers, who were other passengers,
were slightly bruised. They were
headed toward Atwater on fishing
trip.

DROUTH CATTLE
APPRAISALS NOW
MADE AT STATION

A new procedure for the sale of
drouth stricken cattle to the govern
ment is now in effect: Heretofore
appraisers have called at the farm
where the appraisal form was filled
out. Later the cattle were ordered
in for shipment. To reduce over
head costs and to use as much Of the
available money as possible for the
actual purchase of cattle, they will
now be appraised at the shipping
point.
Under this plan, the producer will
fill out an application for selling cat
tie and will send the completed ap-
plication to the office of the county
director, Nate H. Bovee. When suf-
ficient applications have been receiv-
ed to make one or more carloads OF
cattle at a given shipping point, no.
tice will be sent to the producers as
to the time and place at which their
cattle may be delivered for appraisal
and shipment. When the cattle are
delivered they will be appraised by a
committee of farmers, so the produc-
ers need feel no hesitation in selling
cattle under this plan. Fair treat
ment will be given to everyone and
appraisals will receive the same con-
sideration as in the past. If an animal
is in such condition that it is unfit
for shipment, the inspector will visit
the farm and make the necessary
condemnation.
The schedule of prices will remain
the same as before, namely:
Animals two years old and over,
SIP to $40.
Animals one to two years old, $40
to SIS.
Animals under one year, 81 to So.
Payments at these prices are d.
vided between debtors and creditors
as follows:
For animals two years and older,
Sc debtor; Sc to $14 creditor.
For animals between one and two
years old, S. debtor; S. to $40 cred
itor.
For animals under one year, %
debtor; 81 to SIS creditor.
IF there is a mortgage on the cat
tie held by other than government
loaning agencies, they will not be &C
copied for shipment unless the ap-
plicant presents the necessary evil
dence that the lienholder will sign
the voucher. This will not be neces-
sary in the case of federal loaning
agencies as they will have their
agents present to sign for them.

LambertiOn Petition
To Condemn Roadway
Wins; NV May Appeal

The petition of the village of LAM
berton to condemn about one-third of
an acre Of land belonging to the Chi
cago and North Western railroad
company to be used for an extension
of it's Main street across the tracks
to Highway IA was upheld by Judge
A. B. Gislason in decision handed
down last week. Railroad attorneys
are understood to have said that the
case will again be appealed.
Julian E. Morten, attorney for the
village, received the announcement
Thursday which draws to a close as
far as district court is concerned, a
case which has been pending about
two years.
With the decision came the an
nouncement that Joseph R. Keefe,
Charles Huhnerkoch and D. w. Gold
were appointed commissioners to ap-
praise the land and ascertain the
amount of compensation due the
railroad company.
Mr.. Huhnerkoch is away on trip
anu Ne IL AoSS, oASO Va AsSN"SNN
Falls, has been recommended to the
court by Mr.. Morten to take Mr..
Huhnerkoch's place. The group met
Wednesday and made its decision.
It was the contention of the rail-
road company that the move by the
village was not necessary one and
that it would impair the property for
railroad purposes. Judge Gislason,
in his decision, averred the move is
one of public necessity and that it
would not impair the property for
railroad purposes.
The case arises out of one of two
years ago when representatives of
the village went before the railroad
and warehouse commission to see If
they could get permission to have the
road cross at that point. They were
granted that permission.
The case was then appealed to dis
trict court where Judge Harold Bak-
err of Renville decided in favor OF the
village. The village then petitioned
for the right to condemn the proper
ty.
