Iowa Farmers Blame the St. Paul Road
 for Submerged Lands.


 Sioux City. August 1.-The St. Paul road is to be made the defendant in a heavy damage suit growing out of the recent heavy rains in Monona county. The road will be charged with negli- gence in failing to provide a culvert through which the water could run off from the fields.
 About a mile this side of Grant Cen ter the St. Paul runs on a high grade. A few years ago, it is alleged the road had a culvert at this point 300 feet long. Since then. however, the cul- vert. has been partly taken out, so that only 100 feet remains, and a solid grade has been put in it's place.
 During the recent rains the water was unable to run off in the direction of the Little Sioux. and the farmers claim their crops have been ruined thereby. Men are engaged at present in measuring the fields and estimating the amount oi damage done.
