DRIVING BACK THE OCEAN.
The Gigantic Work of ReclnimfuG
Land fn Holland.

Land I'm Holland.
From the Milwaukee Journal.
The people of Holland have undertaken a
gigantic work by means of which they ex-
pect to recover the larger part of the terri
tory now covered by the Zuyder Zee, the
inland sea Of the country, and turn it again
into a fertile farming region. 1t is now
just five centuries since the inundation of
that part of the Netherlands now covered
by the Zuyder Zee was completed. the en-
croachments of the sea having been going
on for 225 years. previous to which time
the territory was covered with forests.
BY the most stupendous exertions about
$50 square miles of country has already
been recovered by an elaborate dyke sys-
tenn, which has gradually reclaimed section
after section that was lost, but the new
scheme transcends the previous work in ex-
tent and Importance. The towns of the re-
gion which had become of considerable inn
portance as seaports through the bringing
of the waters of the ocean to their doors
have lost considerable of that Importance
through the difficulties of navigation and
the transfer of the trade to the North Hol-
land canal and the ship canal which con-
meets the metropolis with the ocean, On
this account the remnants of commerce are
country would be after it is reclaimed, and
therefore there Is general acquiescence
in the plan to drive the ocean out
On account of the great cost fl will be
years. so as to make it less oppressive and
to make the benefits gradually bear their
share of the expense A colossal sea wall
Is first to be built from North Holland to
Friesland, shutting out the tides of the
ocean. This wall will be PIG feet wide at
the base and the top will be seventeen feet
above the sea level, while along the inner
side and at some distance below the top
Will be a track wide enough for a wagon
road and railway.
After The sea is barred out the inclosed
space to be reclaimed will inclose within
separate embankments four areas contain
ing in the aggregate 750 square miles One
of these areas will be first drained by pump
ing the water over the embankment, the
water finding its way to the sea through
the main channel, and as the shallower
portions become exposed they will be ss.c-
cessively brought under cultivation. 1t is
calculated that within ten years 25.d0O
acres can be made annually available. and
In the end the inland sea will be reduced
to channel about fifteen miles wlde called
the fsselmeer, communicating with the
sea by locks at .WierinFen. with Amster-
dam by branch three miles wide and by
another with the mouth of the YsseL The
plan has received the sanction of the gov
ernment and the engineers pronounce 1t
feasible.
