SOUTH DAKOTA
LANDS TO BE DRAINED
What New Law VIII Do for Farmers
of Lincoln County.

y CANTON, S. D.--Many Of the farmers
Of this county who are the owners of fiat
lands with poor drainage are preparing
to avail themselves Of an act passed by
the last state legislature. This provides
that in cases where insufficient drainage
of lands suitable for farming purposes
exist, the owners may secure relief by
petitioning the county authorities to have
the same properly drained.
In pursuance Of that act about forty
farmers in the southwest part of this
county recently petitioned the county
commissioners asking that two of these
bitches be built. The board appointed a
commission, consisting of Jonas Minot,
William M. Brown and Nels Johnson, to
Investigate the merits of the petition, and
they have just handed in their report,
which is entirely favorable to the PROPOSE
ton. The construction will, therefore, be
made, it is thought, at an early date.
The ditch will be about three miles in
length and have a depth of from two to
nine feet. The total cost will be about
$1,000, and about 1000 acres now prac-
tically unfit for cultivation will be re-
claimed.
