CLEARING OUT THE RIVER

A number of people in the city who
are interested in boating are engaged
this week in blasting out the channel
below the city, in the Wisconsin river,
and clearing out the stream so that
launches and other boats may have a
clear water way below the city.
AS conditions are now, a motor
boat cannot be run below the city,
due to rocks and other Instructions.
and in order to enjoy boat ride, one
must walk fol. quite distance before
he can get to boat. A number c.
persons in the city who are interested
in boating have been engaged for the
past week in clearing out the channel
so that ! motor boat can be operated
there.
1t is highly probable that if a good
channel is opened in the place where
the persons are at work now. the
motor boats above the dam Will be
taken below the city and operated
between Grand Rapids and South
Centralia. The I'm would not be so
long there as it is above the dam, but
a motor boat could be run around the
islands as many times as would
make up for the distance above the
dam between here and Biron, and the
trip would be as pleasant and as
beautiful as the other, the one now
being taken by number of people
who have never before seen the
beautiful scenery along the old
Wisconsin from the river side. Many
who would feel more like keeping a
boat and using it, were there asbetter
place for the sport, will be interested
in the new project, and will be glad to
hear of its success. 1t will not
require much work to clear the
channel and it will be done by the end
of the week if all goes well.

Officers Of the State Drainage league,
recently organized at Crookston, carried
their campaign into Minneapolis today.
They are here to interest twin city bust
ness men in the movement, and to raise
fund with which to maintain a per-

F. Calhoun, Minneapolis member of the
executive committee, and there met a
number Of business men. The league
intends to carry it's organization into
the cities and to organize each county
and congressional district so as to fur
nisb support for the work.
Mr.. Bernard said: "There are
100000 acres of swamp land in
would be valuable agricultural land
should spend millions on irrigation of
lands in the west, for the benefit of
certain localities and individuals, and
neglect to drain the water off our
swamp lands. We are going to make
a strong case before congress this win
ter, according to the plan suggested
by Senator Clapp at the Crookston con
vention, and we want to maintain a
permanent lobby at Washington to fur
Their the interests of drainage. We
will insist on the recognition of ou1
claims along with those Of irrigation
and if appropriations for drainage are
denied, we will see that no money is
spent on irrigation.

les have a vital interest in this
drainage question. The redemption Of
productive farms, will add immensely
to the wealth of the territory tributary

SOME STILL UNCUT
Wheat in Lowlands of Red River
Valley Is Overripe.

T. S. Outram, local weather observer
and section director in the climate and
crop service, has issued the following
bulletin giving weather and crop con-
dltlons IN Minnesota for the week end
ing Monday:
The early part ofthe week was warm,
with temperatures of 80 degrees or higher
at some western and southern points on
the 2Sth and at southwestern and south
ern points on the 29th; the rest of the
week was cool, with light frost reported
at several northern points on the morning
OF the 4th. There were scattered showers
on the 29th, Goth, Cd and Sd, and rains in
all parts of the state on the 31st, and IN
northern parts on the LIST. .,.,ssc IT IT,
The slowlands Of the Red River valley
counties have been flooded by the rains
or made very wet; on these lands there is
still considerable acreage on which over
ripe wheat is standing uncut, and which
cannot be reached by binders till the
ground dries out. On the higher lands
of the north all grains but flax are cut,
and fax is being secured as rapidly as
possible. In southern and central por-
lions stacking was well advanced or fin
ished, and threshing from the shock was
also we'll advanced before the rains began
but the wet weather has seriously de-
layed or entirely stopped all work in the
grain fields.
| Corn has been doing very well, and in
a few places in the south a little of the
early corn has already been cut; a good
deal Of the corn crop will be safe from
frost by the 10th, and most Of the croI
4 by the 18th.
| The potato crop seems to be very un'
even; many fields are very good and some
are poor, and rot is reported in many
places. A large crop of second growth
of clover is being secured for hay wher
the weather is favorable. Flowing i:
going on nicely in southern and middl,
sections. The apple crop is generally {
good one
