A corps of surveyors are again at work on the proposed dam on the Col orado river near Parker and it is now thought that this great work will be commenced within short tina, being the first of the series of dams to be constructed on the Colorado river. When the work is we'll under way the dan at Bulls Head will be commenced and pushed to completion. These dams on the Colorado river will bring under cultivation nearly million acres of the richest farming lands in the world. Thousands of homes can be made on the high lands along the river without fear of the overflow of the river or the bursting of the dams. Bananas, lemons, oranges, and in fact all tropical and semi.tropical fruits can be grown along this great river, while in the bottom lands from five to six crops of alfalfa can be grown year. ly.

Iowa Happenings.

Sioux City, Dec. 12.-Storekeepers in
country towns turnout Iowa and deal
ers in COAL lumber, livestock, and
building materials are greatly concern
ed about the remarkable expansion of
the cooperative trading movement in
the state. The tendency to co-opera-
ton is not confined to trading, for the
smaller cities and towns are also
building their water works, steam and
hot water heating, telephone, electric
and gas plants, or buying them from
private corporations, in great numbers.
The municipal ownership movement
is not new, though it has never been
SO vigorous as now. But the develop
ment of cooperative trading, which
began in Iowa with the famous Rock
well Cooperative Company is going
on at pace never before dreamed of.
Recently about seventy-five co-operat-
i've concerns were represented at con-
vention at Rockwell, and as result
Of the inspiration Of this meeting
scores of others are being organized
every month. Another meeting will
be held at Rockwell in February, and
it is expected to have nearly 200 going
concerns represented.
The Rockwell society began by han

ing to eliminate middlemen in mar

Der, coal, elevators and a big general
store. Now it does business Of about
100000 a year, in a village of 400
people.
Similar societies have had varied ex-
periences. The cooperative cream
cries have not been shining successes,
and some of the grain handling eff
forts have failed. But the farmers,
instead Of being deferred, are going
ahead, willing to pay for exper-

Iowa City, Dec. 12.-Unique in the

in the fertile brain of Professor l. A.

connecting link between the alumni
and the undergraduates, was first
proposed last spring and met with in
slant favor from alumni, university and
student authorities The work was
pushed by j. o. Johnson, of Cedar
Falls, scholar in the department Of po-
litical science, and Frank e. Wilson, OF
Sioux City, editor-in- chief Of the Daily
Iowan, the college newspaper.
The plan provided for the organiza-
ton into clubs of the students in the
university from one county. Outside
state clubs were also to be formed. The
plan, proposed to the student board OF
