Tri State Drainage.

The meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the Red River Valley Drain
age association was held to accept the
charter recently granted by the state
of South Dakota. A number of Fargo
and Grand Forks men are interested
and the movement promises to develop
into something large after it is proper
ly organized. 1t is the outgrowth of
the aggregation started little over a
year ago to build reservoirs at source
of the Red river to control the water
to prevent spring floods along the
valley. The damage to the farmers in
years past is beyond estimation and
the proposed Improvements would cost
only Il million dollars, the amount of
damages i'll 1897 alone. The matter is
brought forcibly to the attention of
the people, as the rains last fall thor
oughly soaked the ground. The
streams are all full, and if there is
heavy snowfall this winter there will
be no place for the surplus water in
the spring and the biggest floods in
the history of the valley are predicted.
The meeting of those interested will
be held at Crookston Jan. II, IS and 10.
1t is expected there will be a thousand
delegates and the program provices
for some interesting addresses by
prominentment men.

Grazing.

A large number of stockmen in the
western part OF the state have put out
cattle with farmers this side of
the Missouri river for wintering. Reg
lister McGillivray of the land Office put
out 200 head with several farmers who
have feed sufficient to carry them
through the winter. Similar action
has been taken by other stockmen,
who, at the opening of the winter sea-
son, looking for hard winter with
prospect of shortage of feed on the
ranges.
These conditions have changed now.
A warm spell" has taken off the snow
and left the range grass where it can
be obtained by cattle At the most
now there cannot be over two months
of especially severe weather, and the
majority of the stockmen have feed
enough to see their cattle through.
In some instances those who have
made ample provision in the hay line
are buying feeders, expected to make
handsome profit by keeping them
over the winter and having them carly
next summer.
