On the example of the life of just one of the numerous Russian regions, one can see all the sorrows and all the joys of our country.

In 1904, in the village of Sredniy Egorlyk, a solemn event was held to celebrate the centenary. Present himself Stavropol governor and spiritual ranks. At the ceremonial gathering laid the foundation for charity. A donation opened a charity house and a lower vocational school.

In 1914, the First World War began, it covered almost all European countries, the USA and a number of Asian countries were involved. To the front they took horses, cattle, moves, a harness. Only from Middle Egorlyk 3 000 people were mobilized. There was nobody to work in the fields. The ruin of the peasantry began, especially the middle peasants. This was followed by famine, a typhus epidemic.

From 1 March 1916, the traffic was opened along the Don line “Bataysk-Torgovaya” of the Vladikavkaz railway. The station Celina began to operate. Before the revolution, eight general and three parochial schools for children of well-to-do people worked on the territory of the future Tselinsky district; these schools employed 16 teachers.

The February and Great October Socialist Revolutions took place in 1917. In late November, Soviet power was established in the villages of Srednyaya Egorlyk and Lopanka.

In 1918, the Kornilov people shot and killed 300 people within 24 hours, and more than 2 residents of Srednyaya Yegorlyk village were killed in the 500 day.

In 1920, Soviet power was restored. Formed the first collective farms - the commune. After the unification, the names were subsequently assigned to them: the name of Karl Marx and the name of Karl Liebknecht. Already in the first years, the communards began to harvest wheat per hectare of sown area one and a half to two times higher than the individual farmers.

And in 1921, the first military stud farm was opened here.

In 1921, the mass resettlement of Dukhobors and Molokans from the Caucasus and Turkey began. 1921 to 1923 Thousands of Dukhobors and Molokans settled in these parts of 4,5. By the 1923, in the territory of the present district, they had equipped 45 villages and farmsteads.

In June, the 1921 of the year, by decision of the Revolutionary Military Council of the Republic, was established the State Stud Farm “Salsky”, later renamed the Kirov Military Stud Farm. The plant was part of the Salsky district at the station Celina Don region.

In the spring of 1922, the state donated seed grain to the population. Weather conditions allowed us to harvest a good harvest - hunger was liquidated. A seed fund was procured for the following year.

In 1922-1924, a new economic policy was introduced by a government decree in the country. The villagers were allowed to produce grain, grow oilseeds, raise livestock in unlimited quantities. This caused a sharp rise in enterprise, economic resourcefulness. Some workers left the communes and single-handedly engaged in agriculture.

In 1923, the Tselinsky District was founded. He received the name "Western Konnozavodchesky."

Earlier, the territory was part of the Medvezhinsky district of the Stavropol province and part of the Salsk district of the Don Cossack region. The center of the area became the station Celina. At the end of the year, a regional Komsomol organization was created; it consisted of 50-60 Komsomol members.

In 1924, the virgin lands fell asleep in the bins of the Motherland more than two million pounds of bread.

In 1924-1925 Artels, TOZs (cooperative land cultivation partnerships) were created.

In July, the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR decided to create the first Soviet grain farm in the Salsk Steppe — State Farm No. XXUMX, which was later renamed Giant. The central manor was located in the new settlement of New Tselina. In September of this year, tractors, combine harvesters, plows and other agricultural equipment purchased in America arrived at the Tselina station.

By decision of the Salsk okruzhkom VKP (b), this campaign was carried out in the 2 phase: the first was in villages and farms located along the Yul beam and south of Celina station; the second is in the Dukhobor-Molokan massif.

The communes named after Karl Marx and Karl Liebknecht, the Sower, the Path of Truth became collective farms (collective farms). Collectivization contributed to the increase in the number of inhabitants of the station Celina. The influx from the neighboring villages and farms of those who did not want to join the collective farms increased. Different views on life, foundations, and traditions at first divided them.

In 1929, the writer M. Gorky was a guest of the state farm “Giant”.

When MTS and state farms created political departments, designed to promote the fundamental reconstruction of the national economy. The policy of accelerated industrialization led to the removal of bread from the population. The political departments controlled by the NKVD even took the seeds. With a good harvest, hunger was artificially created.
