Sioux Falls, S. d., Oct. 5.--In the
Farmers National congress DR.. j..
w. Heston, of the South Dakota agri-
cultural college, in paper on Farm
ers' Opportunities, discussed the ne
cessity of government aid for the
reclamation of the arid lands of the

terprise had already accomplished
all possible to be done and nothing
further could be expected until the
general government came to aid.
He said the general government had
received O,O0O,0OO from the sale of
eastern lands since 1875 and thought
it not unreasonable to ask that $15,-
OOo,OO0 be expended for ten years in
the reclamation of lands capable of
supporting n population equal to the

TO TURN RIVERS COURSE,

to Build Dyke to Prevent Big
Muddy's Cutting.

ST. Joseph, Mo-, Oct. 5.-The CON
slant cutting of the river bank by
the erratic Missouri is again causing
alarm. Capt. Alexander Stewart has
suggested that if dyke or breakwa-

the current would be diverted in such
manner as to solve the problem.
Diagrams and charts are being pre-
pared to be submitted to congress,
when an appropriation of $4,000 to
build the dyke will be asked. 1t is
claimed that this plan will obviate
the necessity for further rip-rapping
on Belmont bend, where the govern
ment has spent thousands of dollars
the last few years trying to prevent
the river from cutting through the
town of Wathena, Kan, and leaving
st. Joseph several miles inland.
