The new settlers who have gone into the
Muddy Valley during the past year show
up the desireability of incorporating the
waters of the Muddy River Valley for irri-

stream overfiows considerable quantity OF
land, making it swampy and giving rise il
, is thought, to some of the malaria which
affects some of the new residents. 1t is pro
posed to take out all the water in two
r canals, one on each side of the valley and tc
distribute it so much to the acre This
| method would insure a water supply
| for every acre of available land there Tn,
only question appearing to be sis the pre-
sent population strong enough to undertake
the work"
