MANY LAKES GOING DRY.
Serious Condition Which Causes Worry In
Green County, Ia.


Green County, Ia
Dies MONIES, Nov. 1.-THE state land
Office has received number of reports
from the northern part of the state in
regard to the burning of the beds Of
lakes, some of them of large area. There
has been a very little water this fall
and many of the lakes are dry. So SER
ious has the question of the evaporation
and drainage of lakes all over the state
become that the next legislature will
probably be asked to pass law impos-
ing heavy fine upon those who drain
these bodies of water.
Goose lake, in Green county, is on
fire. There has been no water in the
lake since early spring, and the flames
have consumed the grass and rushes,
and the fires are now burning the peat
and vegetable formation on the bottom.
The smoke from the burning lake can
be seen for miles, The farmers in other
parts of the state have become excited
over the fire and are preparing to ex-
tinguish fires in the lake beds in their
vicinity if they start.

The double tie OH joint ballot in the
Kentucky legislature is one Of the
strangest of all the developments of
the recent election. 1t is odd that each
OF the great parties should have ex-

eight, but it is marvel that the small
parties should also divide equally, one
republican alliance man and one dem
Ocratic-pOpulist being chosen.
