Sites Galore Appear
For New PostofIce;
Where'H We Put IT.?

Redwood Falls gave loud whoop emitted sigh
of relief that the battle had ended and then amid the
booming and sizzling of Independence day fireworks
took up the matter of choosing the site for the new
postofice, promised in kilograms from Washington
late Friday afternoon.
Not that local residents will have the say, since
the government has gained experience in such mat
ters during all these years Redwood Falls has waited
impatently for it's turn to come but it's good topic
anyhow
Civic leaders quick to point out that any local
tactOnaSm concerning the matte~ might delay the pro-
ject indefinitely and urge that residents don't get their
hearts set too strong on any spot There are nnum
cradle places where the $4,000 structure be built

allotment cancelled because of bellgerent protests

When federal officials arrive-perhaps late this
month as the project is expected to proceed quite
promptly thanks to the pump printing program-they

said to be minimum requirement.
Mill street residents quick to put word in for
1t and several lots along the cys only broad business
street gained immediate popularity. The poor oil sta
tions of whom is popularity said there are too many
anyway would be whisked away and federal buildings
put on each of several if all the gossip could
be believed.
On it's side is the argument that postoffces are
showpaces and where would tourists be apt to
it? The White Eagle and the Sinclair station (form-
ery WNAX probably are the streets principal
bids for consideration.
Washington streeters, too, have their ideas and
losing the traffic which goes with the office isn't well
come prospect. Sites all the way from Bridge street to
Fifth have been advanced "likelys" with the lot
from the hospital SOUTH the Golden property at
Fifth and the Shell station environs at Bridge street
in the fore.
Then there are the persons who think jefferson
street has claim to consideration and ah another oil
station into the picure-why not move the Pure

Another group has big-city ideas about govern
ment quadrangle something and advances a pretty
picture of courthouse-federa building setup which
would place the postoffce lots occupied by homes
just east of the courthouse That's and probably
just starter in the matter isn't settled too sud-
denly.
News of the $4,000 allotment came to Redwood
Falls in handful of kilograms from Senator Ernest
Ldeen whose message ended pleased to have assist

laid down in recent weeks by Redwood Falls voters The
senator may not know it but similar commandments
have been issuing from Redwood Falls for this post

TROUBLES ONLY STARTING, MARRIED COP ADVISES

1t all began when Sidney Perk-

1t ended several hours later in
Jackson, Minnesota, when Sidney
came to realize that his troubles

radio station KIND, the Redwood

fortune in long distance telephone
tolls to make him realize it.
Mr.. Perkins and his brother

baggage and otherwise retard the

Brother Tom to sneak away with
the baggage and meet at a rem
devious north of town.
In the excitement Brother Tom
got his signals mixed and instead
of stopping at the prescribed spot,
kept coming north. Sidney called
the Storm Lake police, who adj
vised him to contact KIND at
Redwood Falls, asking them to be
on the lookout for the Texas car.
KIND called in the local gend-
armes and Clarence johnson sta
toned himself out on highway II.
In due time Texas Tom came
steaming in from the south and
was stopped by Chief Johnson.
Appraised of his error, Tom call

good idea for Tom to put the

with bus that would reach
Storm Lake the next morning.
Principal drawback in this plan
was the fact that the bus had left
Redwood Falls about five minutes
previous.
A man of quick decisions, Tom
told his brother he would pursue
the bus, probably overtaking it in
Olivia. If this failed, he would
turn around and deliver that bag
gage in Storm Lake himself, in
person, doggone it.
So Tom went out of town as he

A couple hours later Chief
Johnson received a telephone

Where are you now Johnson
asked.

reply.
Somehow the Texans had work

had assumed that his brother had
missed the bus and started back
for Storm Lake, so he decided to
meet him halfway.

confded.
But Brother Tom had not re-
ported since leaving Redwood
Falls. He must had caught the
bus or he would have gone back.
In that case, the travel-worn bag

would have to go back to Storm

Corn Prospects Aided
By Heat; Small Grain
Harvest to Start Soon
OUTLOOK EXCELLENT
IN MOST PLACES, FIRST
'HOPPERS REPORTED

Prospects for a good if not
bumper small grain crop appear
ed excellent this week as turning
rye and winter wheat fields pro-
missed an early harvest and oats,
barley and spring wheat cutting
was predicted to start soon after
the middle of the month.
Meanwhile corn was shooting
up at a record rate after late
start due to rains which delayed
planting. Numerous fields are
waist-high and only an occasional
field failed to make the knee high
requirement for Independence
day Hot weather was RESPONSE
BILE for the fast growth, quoting
worries that an early frost might
seriously damage the crop. Many
fields are uneven, particularly
where low ground was planted
late and some stands are light
but the general outlook for well
filed cribs this fall is first rate.
The first report of grasshopper
damage reached the county
agents office this week after J. l.
Swedberg had about decided the
danger was past. Two small
fields of about ten acres each are
infested with the pests and they
are sure fixing the barley" ac-
cording to the county agent.
He expects other infestations
will be reported, probably only
in scattered fields which will be
baited.
There is some red rust on
wheat but the dreaded black rust
has not been reported in the
county. Much of the wheat rails
ed here is rust-resisting Thatcher.
Rumors of hail damage were
traced by The Gazette office We'd
nesday night but no source Of
the report could be found in sew
eral calls to various parts of the
county. Some of the small grain
has been lodged by wind and
heavy rains but only in occasional
fields, many of which were not
seriously damaged.

Beach Wins in
Land Dispute
CRIMMINS DEFEATED
DECISION GIVEN
BY GISLASON

Dispute over the ownership of
a tract of land adjoining Redwood
Falls was settled Tuesday when
Judge A. B. Gislason ruled in
favor of Alfred Beach.
Beach and d. L. Crimmins had
both claimed ownership of the
land. The tract was not sold at
the official auction conducted by
County Auditor Ira r. Rogers and
the contenders for the land each
claimed to have made the prior
payment. Beach was given a re-
ceipt by the auditors office for
his down payment of $3.50 on
the day following the auction,
and since the court found that
this evidence substantiated his
claim that he had made the first
sufficient offer, he was declared
the rightful owner.

Gallea Bakery Will Observe
SilVer Anniversary July IS

July Is marks the twenty-ffth
anniversary of the establishment
of the Gallea Bakery. E. L. Gal
lea, proprietor, has planned an
extensive celebration for the
event.
1t was in 1913 that the Gallea
brothers, E. A. and E. L. pur-
chased the present site from T. S.
Smith and Son. At that time. and
until 1928, it was operated as
both bakery and restaurant. The
bakery of century ago was only
half as large and the baking was
done entirely by hand in the
basement.
In 1916 the first of series of
improvements was instituted with
the addition of SO feet to the ORR
ginal building. Between 1921
and 1923 the combination restau-
rant and bakery occupied both
the present site and the adiofn-
ing building, now Randsaard's
cafe.
E. L. Gallea purchased his
brothers share of the business in
1926. Part Of his program of
expansion included the estab-
lishment of a bread route to serve
surrounding communities in 1926.
Late in 1896 a completely auto
matte oven was installed, the
fourth baking unit used by the
plant. The handsome modern
front added this spring is the
most recent improvement.
Free coffee and cake will be
served next Wednesday and a
prize awarded for the closest
guess of the weight of huge loaf
of bread to be displayed in the
window.
