Hydro Plant to
j Get Needed Repairs
River to Be Diverted
During Project
Major repairs and improve
ments at the Spencer hydro elec
tric plant, which will require
construction of a diversion dam,
are planned for early this sum
mer.
Consumers will accept bids
covering improvements to the
spillway and tailrace and bids for
rock replacement, stock piling
and rock recovery until March 16,
1956. Plans, specifications and
instructions to bidders are avail
able at Columbus.
The four-month project will
involve a great amount of work
since it will be necessary to di
vert the river before eaoded
places on the dike can be clean
ed, backfilled and reinforced. In
addition, river bed improvements
below the spillway and tailrace
call for the construction of four
concrete walls.
Work on the Niobrara plant
near Spencer probably won’t
start until June, when the watqr
level is normally expected to be
low enough fof diversion.
The Spencer project will re
quire aproximately 2,300 cubic
yards of excavation. Grouted-in
rock and reinforced concrete will
total around 1,240 cubic yards,
and some 1,740 cubic yards of
rock will be needed for the pro- !
ject.

NOTICE
Holt County Implement
Dealers’ Credit Policy
There have been some questions in the minds of some
good farmer friends regarding the new Credit Policy
adopted by the Holt County Implement Dealers’ Asso
ciation, and put into effect by the implement dealers
throughout the county.
It is our wish to give the best type of service to our
customers, and the most important is to have needed re
pairs in stock when the need arises. However, with the
large amount of open accounts on dealers’ books,
amounting to over two million ($2,000,000.00) in the
state, we are unable to carry the desired stock.
Our sources of supply demand payment for parts the
1 Oth of the month following purchase. Therefore we are
forced to make this decision.
Credit may be arranged for by making credit ar
rangemets in the dealer’s place of business. This en
titles you to the same credit as the dealer has—payment
on the I Oth of the month following purchase.
We, as a group ask that all . outstanding open ac
counts be brought up to date as soon as possible, thus es
tablishing your credit with us.
If any other questions arise, please contact your lo
cal dealer and he will explain it fully.
