Many farms in the corn belt have

often make triangular fields or small
pieces that cause much Inconvenience
in farming.

places here in Marshall county, Hi

the ditch and tiling out the land. Many
dams have proved a disappointment.

struction.
l therefore give you my idea OF
constructing such dams, and the same
rule will hold good for any body OF
water or for any height, viz, first dig
trench for dam to solid earth and as
far in the solid earth as at least one
sixth the height the dam is to be. Also
dig trench as wide as dam is to be
high: dig we'll into bank at both ends.
