WHY WASTE THE WATERS

Irrigation Purposes


WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE bureau
of the American Republics is informed
of a movement in the Argentine Repub-
lie for a system of irrigation TO prevent
the disastrous effects of dr0ughts in the
agricultural districts.
From an engineering point of view,
the project is said to be entirely practi-
cable. AS the rivers and streams Of the
country afford a most inexhaustible sup
ply Of water, and the rivers become
swollen to such am extent as to render iii
possible to store immense quantities in
reserve tanks. experimenting this a
system of parallel canals from various
points on the rivers is advocated as we'll
