STARTS SIXTH YEAR
Harry Nielsen, superintendent of
the Cass county farm west of this
city, has just started on the sixth
year of his service in this capacity,
having just closed his year's work
at the farm.
Mr. Nielsen has made a splendid
record in his work at the farm, not
only in the business management of
the large farm but in the many de
tails that are a part of the daily
r- utine in the care of those who are
residents there and who are largely
under care and require special atten
tion and treatment in their several
cases.
The farm is one of the best in this
section and each year the crops pro
duced there are used in the main
tenance of the farm residents and un
der the very capabl management of
Mr. Nielsen has been most success
ful.

this week, and marched forward
again along the recovery highway.

ened decisively, as transportation
service widely returned to normal,

and the prospect of revision of NRA
codes as result of the hearings which

but on the whole, it was agreed busi
ness seemed pointed toward a spring
peak of gratifying proportions, par
ticularly in contrast to the extreme
low levels of a year ago. when the
country was struggling with its firs.t
banking crisis.
The weekly satisfies for electric
power production and movement of
freight, were somewhat better than
seasonal according to Moody's index
figures, but these reflected in part
the cold weather and the heavier
movement of coal.
Steel ingot production, according
to the weckl ysurvey by Steel, rose
only one percentage point during the
week to 4S percent of capacity.
Cram estimated the past week's
automobile production at 71.510
units, up only 4 63 over the previous
week, but more than double the out
put for the like week of last year.
The W. C. T. U. met at the home
of Mrs. C. C. Wescott on Monday February production totaled approx
and with a very large number of the imateiy 270,000 units, up CI per
members in attendance to observe cent from January, and 145 percent
