Mrs. c. NJ. Patty, Mrs. w. F. Piper,
Mrs. L. NJ. McCulloch, Mrs. +. A.
Matthews, Mrs. F. Jeffries, Mrs. Belle
Cooke, Mrs. Huston (now Mrs.

beside the two last named, are now
living. Mrs. Huston-Waters, Mrs.
Belle Cook and Miss Allen. Mrs.

BEGINS WORK ON DITCH
Contractor Sullivan Ready to Con,
stuct CAnl for Country

John j. Sullivan, the contractor who
is to dig the county ditch that is
to result in the lowering of Lake
,Gilfllan three feet and drain some
low land about it, began work today.
He expects to have the ditch be-
tween Gilfillan and Ballentyne lakes
completed this coming winter.
County Surveyor Brooks went to the
lakes this morning and staked the
ditch out between the lakes. This is
the ditch that caused good deal of
contest between rival interests in
the vicinity when the hearing was
had.

MEAT PRICES GOING DOWN
Cut 10 Marked on the Local Market,
Brighter Prospects.

Dispatches from Chicago and Omaha
are to the effect that the price of
meats are to be cut. This is GER
tainly pleasant news to the house
holder who has been laboring under
the strain of carrying heavy bur
den for some time past. Eatables of
all kinds have been doing the sky
ward stunt, and it did seem as if
the price would never stop going up.
Today's livestock markets show a
sharp decline, which indicates that the
price of steaks will soon be within
the reach of men who are in but
moderate circumstances.

What the Ditch Building
Means in FreebOrn.
MAKING OF MANY FARMS
1t Is Estimated That Seventy five
Thousand Acres Are to Be Made
Available for Cultivation.

Geneva, Oct. 25.-The launching of
the Swamp Angel the immense
dredge- boat that is to carry the ma
chinery for the construction of the
great ditch that is to drain thousands
of acres in the townships of Geneva.
Riceand and Moscow, just below the
narrows of Geneva lake, drew large
crowd of spectators, as it was the
first real launching that ever took
place in this part of the state. Work
men had been engaged upon the boat
completed it will represent an invest
ment of no less than $4,000. The
boat is lOOx4O feet, and it required
eighteen carloads of timber and sew
eral wagon loads of bolts, while two
blacksmiths were engaged two months
in manufacturing bolts that were also
used.
The timbers are four inches in thick
ness on the bottom and seven on the
sides, while it is braced by heavy Sxl0
oak timbers. Professional ship-caulk
ers filled the seams with cotton,
oakum, tallow and white lead, and
there is little danger of leaks. This
was the one hundred and twenty
third boat of this character that
Foreman Blair had supervised. He
was assisted by H. c. Cogdal, who
will operate the machine, and f. Fl.
Cowan, the general representative of
the France Dredging & Construction
company, that has the contract.
The machinery is being put on the
boat as soon as possible, and it is
expected it will be in operation early
in December. There will be five en-
gines, furnishing 100 horsepower. A
large dynamo will supply light and
the work will be prosecuted night
and day.
The boom that handles the dipper
is seventeen feet long and weighs thir-
teen tons; the dipper stick weighs six
tons and the dipper two tons. The
dipper will handle two yards of earth
and it weighs six tons, but when
swinging at the end of the. boom it
will equal twenty tons in pressure.
The dredge, when equipped for
work will weigh 100 tons, and handle
from 10000 to 100000 cubic yards
a month. There are l,739,799 cubic
yards and about thirty three miles of
ditch in this job. The contract
price was $ll5,0OO, or an average of
GA cents yard, but other expenses
will bring the total cost of the i'm
provement up to fully $l50,OOO- prob
ably the largest undertaking of the
kind ever begun in the northwest. 1t
has taken four or five years to get
this far along with the work.
The Moscow Riceland Geneva ditch
will benefit not less than 10000 acres,
at least half of that amount being
reclaimed from worthless condition.
This will mean hundred l60-acre
farms. The soil will be the best to
be found, in fact, Professor Thomas
Shaw made an examination and pro-
nounced the back soil seventeen feet
in thickness and inexhaustable.
The $4,000 acres of land thus drain
ed will add materially to the county
and state and furnish homes and
places for labor for thousands of per-
sons. The land is in the garden
belt of the northwest, where crop fail
ures are not known and dairying has
reached a stage near to perfection.
