CROOKSTON, Mimi, Jan 1.-THE
local committee are hard at work plan
ming for the entertainment of the tri-
state drainage convention in this city
next week. 1t is estimated that the at
tendance will be from 1,5c0 to 2,0o0 prin-
cipally from the Dakotas. There will b
some attendance from Minnesota, but the
territory interested is in only one sec
ton of the state.
The programme committee has an

be many others. Mayor Campbell and
Supt r. A. Hoverstad, of the experiment
station. are directing the labors of the

used fund of 500, subscribed for the
street fair by business men, be turned
over to the committees for use in en-
PERTAINING the convention. 1t has been
proposed to have a programme Of winter
sports as a special drawing card.
Among the propositions already out
lined are those to make reservoirs of
Otter Tail lake and Lake Traverse in
order to protect fertile lands from dis
astrous foundations. The cultivation Of
the land and the drainage necessary in
many parts of the Red river va ley tend
to increase the flow of water into the
river and some means must be taken of
aVerting. the dangers of an excess.
Gov. Van SAINT, in his message, re-
ferred to the great benefits derived from
the state drainage bitches in the Red
river valley, and recommended ar ap-
preparation to keep them in repair. He
also advised the legislature to consider
carefully whether the system might not
be gradually extended. The. representa-
tives from the Seventh district VIII
deavor to secure drainage legislation, and
Senator Myron, of Ada, will introduce

stitUents. A caucus of the valley mem
bers will be held soon to take the ques-
ton up.
