REDWOOD-MORCAN
GAME TO START
SECOND SESSION
Lamberton, Wabasso, Wanda
Strongest Trio in PEN
nant Race

Twin County teams will start
their final drive in the pennant
chase Sunday with Redwood open
ing its second half at Morgan.
The first half champion nine
will attempt to add the sixth
straight victory to it's string at
the expense of the improving Wa
basso club with the tilt scheduled
for the latter's home pastures,
while Wanda will be host to Leav-
enworth.
The home stretch should prove
to be three club affair unless the
weaker three show unexpected
strength. Lamberton on the basis
of its high class playing during
the initial half is rated as the
choice to repeat its performance.
Wanda and Wabasso look to be
the only other aggregations with
chances to send the league champ
ionship into a play-off at the COM
pletion of the season.
Manager Ken Stockton's club
will not do any serious threaten
ing for the flag unless his batters
suddenly start sending the ball to
places where the fielders aren't.
The pitching department is in
good hands with Joe Bevan on
the mound but he will need hits
to support him. Leavenworth Is
in about the same category as
Redwood Falls, while Morgan's
hopes also are dim.

NEW BUILDING, TRUCKS,
EQUIPMENT TO COST
$4,000

approximately SZU,UUO is De-
ing expended on an expansion
program at the Redwood Falls
rendering plant near North Red
wood, entailing the construction
of new plant building, installa-
tion of new equipment and the
establishment of a fleet of 10
trucks.
Erection of the structure, of
brick, to replace the old frame
building, has been underway
for several weeks under the
supervision of R. F. Byram, con-
tractor. The building when COM
pleted will be 60 feet in length,
45 feet in width and two stories
high. The outside walls have been
completed.
The new system being INSTALL
ed is designed to handle three
times as much business as the
method used at present. Known
as the dry system, Frank Ball
ard, operator of the plant, states
that it will increase the amount
of protein obtainable from the
product and at the same time
eliminate the major part Of the
offensive odor.
When the new plant is ready
to begin operation, Mr.. Ballard
plans to locate trucks at Mar
shall, Walnut Grove, Willmar,
Granite Falls and Stewart and
several other towns under con-
sideration which with those to be
maintained here will make total
of 10 trucks. The fleet will cover
an so to 100 mile radius.
The cooker which has been in
stalled on the lower floor of the
plant is believed to be the larg-
est employed by any similar con-
Germ in the state. The cylindrical
cooker will take care of ID OF
Is head of stock at each cooking,
as much as the old system of five
cooking tanks is able to accom-
modate in an entire day. About
As head will be disposed of in one
day with the larger cooker.
The dry system will enable the
conserving of 60 per cent of the
protein in the tankage product in
stead of 40 per cent through the
wet system, which found consider
able amount of the body building
compound carried away by the
water formed by steam. No water
accumulates by the dry process.
When the meat is sufficiently
cooked it will run through per-
colator and from there Be shovel
ed into an hydraulic press Of 300
ton pressure to be pressed into
cakes, Ia at a time. The cakes
will be so compact that they may
be dropped upon a cement floor
without breaking. Grease to be
used for soap manufacturing will
be separated from the meat by the
press and diverted into barrels.
When the cakes are cooled they
are shipped away to be used for
feed for livestock.
Heat for the IL ton cooker will
be furnished by a $50 horse
power boiler, stoker equipped.
More than $4,000 common bricks
went into the construction of the
boiler.
The new second story will be
used for the skinning floor where
the hides will be removed and
from where the dismembered car
casses will be shovelled into the
cooker. A crew of five men is
expected to be employed at the
plant which is regularly inspect
ed by the state livestock sani-
tary board. A storage room for
hides is also located on the lower
floor.

WESTLINE RESIDENT is
OUT ON BOND AFTER
FRACAS

Released on bond of $4,000,
James McWilliams of Westline
township awaits trial in the Oc-
tober term of district court on
charges growing out of an alter
cation with Cecil Simmons over
the rights to a field of alfalfa on
the McWilliams estate farm
southwest of Milroy.
McWilliams was hailed before
Judge T. F. Reed, Jr., in munich
pal court here Monday on the
complaint of Simmons who charg-
ed that he pointed and discharg-
ed loaded rifle twice in the di-
rection of the complainant. The
defendant pleaded not guilty and
waived preliminary examination.
Testimony before the court
showed that Simmons is tenant
and renter of some of the Nc
Williams farms and that some
time prior to the dispute, Nc
Williams had secured from him
"a written release of a portion OF
one of the farms for the purpose
of erecting buildings upon it. Nc
agreement, it appeared, was made
as to the acreage of the building
site.
McWilliams chose a 20 acre al
falfa field, fenced it in and erect
ed structure upon it. Later a
dispute arose as to whether the
entire field was included in the re-
lease and numerous efforts of at
torneys for both parties were un-
successful in getting them to
settle their difficulties.
June 13, Simmons, accompanied
by three men with mowers, went
through the fence into the field

mons alleged that McWilliams ap-
preached them carrying rifle
which he fired, forcing them from

A DANGEROUS PROPOSITION

Senator O'Mahoney of Wyoming expects to see
congress enact bill in its forthcoming session
which will control and regulate activities OF ous-
ness corporations by the expedent Of requiring all
businesses to take out q federal license, or else
they will not be permitted to send goods into retail
trade or between states
Presumably this is planned under the right OF
the federal government to regulate interstate COM
merce.
That it will be violation of every constitutional
right which the people of the United States are
supposed TO have TO carry on business and, trace
between themselves there can be no doubt.
If any of the provisions of the late NRA were
unconstitutional this sort of thing would be no less
so. The constitution of the United States is sup
posed to guard and protect rights and liberties.
There will be few rights and little liberty for
any Of us if business must be subject to the IN
QUESTION of officialdom in order to exist and per-
form its usual functions.
When our business is under the thumb Of gov
eminent it will DE only short step to curb on
free speech, the free press and any other rights
which interfere with the operation Of an autocratc
government.
Senator 0Mahoney's proposition is even more
dangerous than New Deal measures which the
United States supreme court has already thrown
out as a step in our Specialization and regimenta-
ton
It is even doubtful that any of the restrictions
of trade between states which may not apply as
well to trade between points within state couio
be made to stand up under fair constitutional
test-Rock Hill IS. CO. Herald.
