The Wet

Men Change Their
Ways

A problem that once con-
fronted the people just west
and northwest of here, how
to get more rainfall and
water, has been completely
reversed, the prhblem now
being how to get rid of the
water, both rainfall and ar
tesian. A year ago a man
from Iowa bought a quarter
of land northwest of here,
supposing he was getting
something very dry, intend
ing to move onto it and sink
an artesian we'll. When he
arrived last winter he found
the whole quarter under
water, which had come from
a neighboring well. He
saw no way of draining it
so he decided not to move
here. Another man bought
a farm west of Rec Heights
that had been formerly dry
as a bone. When the new
owner came on he found his
land flooded from the artes-
ian we'll that had been sunk
on it. He shipped in tile
and began to drain it. 1t

thousand fine trees. sits no
trouble to groy trees in this
country Mr.. Harrington ex-
planned to an Independent re-
porter. "For instance l have
seventy-fve evergreen trees that
are doing we'll. Most people do
not know how TO plant those
kind of trees. l just put them
in water till get ready to put
them in the ground, never let
ting the roots exposed to the air
for a moment" He has 68
thrifty plum trees, a lot of soft
naples, rs mulberry trees, wal
nut trees, and over 1000 Russian
Golden willows. The latter are
easy to grow. Merely cut off
twigs six or eight inches long
and insert them in the ground.
He has nine varieties of apple
trees and raspberries galore. He
has set nearly all of these trees
out after working hours while
resting" More should follow
Mr.. Harrington's example. In a
few years his farm will be worth
$500 more simply on account OF
these trees which did not cost
much money or labor.
