The editor of the Sumner Star
tells Of having taken a drive one
day last week to that once
famous resort for duck hunters.
Swan lake, the first time he had
visited the spot since it was
drained and tiled. The chang G
in the appearance OF the land
5cape, he says is something
marvellous. Where once was q
vast sheet Of water shimmering
in the sunlight and dotted with
innumberabIe wild fowls, .o- day
can be seen great fields Of wav-
ing corn and the brown stu55le
and immense straw piles OF
great wheat fields. This change
has been brought about in the
past two or three years by the
simple process Of tiling the
ground and draining ott the
surplus water. There are
thousands Of acres more in the
river bottom that can be reclaim
ed and made as valuable by the
same process.
