The tip "holdup" of the members
of the Vermont Fish and Game club
and their distinguished guests at the
Bluff Point banquet by the colored
walters of the hotel is receiving no
little adverse comment at the hands
of the state press. 1t is unfortunate
that the committee of arrangements
could not, in its Judgment, have seen
it's way to have held this important
gathering inside the borders of the
state. The probable reason was that
those who had the arrangements in
hand did not consider any Vermont
hotel capable of meeting the require
ments. BE this as it may, there is
no reason why the league should be
compelled to go out of the state on
this social occasion. The outdoor

Settlers Are Far
From Pleased at
Irrigation Rule
Explanation Given, by Department of
Reason Why it Has Been
Put in Force.
1Erom .. staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON. April 12.-(Speciai Tee-
gram )-Setters along the North Platte rri-
CATION project in western Nebraska are not
altogether satisfied with he reduction to
eighty acres per family OF the amount of
land that can be watered under the project.
Senator Burkett not long ago took the
question up with the direcor OF the reca-
nation service with a view to having an
adjustment made that would be satisfactory
ia. both settlers and department The d.
rector took he matter under advlsemen
and conferred with the engineers in field.
They intimated 10 their chief that In many
cases settlers in their opinion undertook
more than they could properly handle.
1t seems the law provides that water
shal lbe furnished to an area OF land large
enough for products raised on II to support
"A family" This the department construed
to be eighty acres, and the director states
that IL a larger area were to be given II
would result in hardship to the settlers
In support of this view he maintains that
while during the first years of irrigation
the area cultivated must necessarily be
smaller than a total OF eighty acres, pay
ments must be upon the amount irrigable
and not merely on acreage cultivated. To
increase the unit would be to increase pay
Inents without increasing the acreage a
settler could cultivate and sell crops on,
the director holds, and the law would not
permit increasing the unit any way. lie
also refers to the fact that IL settlers are
unable to meet payments the law provides
for forfeiture of all former payments and
los sof their holding.
