Advocates Flat Bottoms.

In maintaining that the solving of
river problems is making boats to
conform with the channel, Captain
Bresee agrees with the theory of
Wisconsin Waterways Commissioner
Raw S. Reid, who has persistenly
maintained that money sunk into
channels to a great extent IS wasted.
Commissioners Reid's system is a
series of fiat bottom boats, similar to
those now in operation in Germany,
with gasoline for fuel.
The Badger, which has been used
in the packet and freight business
between Lacrosse and Brownsville
for the past two seasons, is mon
ster barge equipped with a 24-horse
power gasoline engine, and against
the current makes good time.
Now in course of construction on
the shores of Black river is barge
smaller than the Badger which Cap.
tain Bresee will use as a "gouger,
the raftsman's name, for towboat
"The channel is narrow" explains
Captain Bresee, "and with the gougel
can control my big boat better.
Il propose to establish farmers
stations between Lacrosse and Blacl
River Falls and will equip my bis
barge with little store to carry far
mers' supplies. will trade with then
for butter, eggs and other farm pro

OLD TIMERS VIEW
ON RIVER TRAFFIC
Thinks Boats Should Fit Channel For
Good ResuIts-PiIot
Talks.

That trying to make 1.-THE river
channel fit the boat is profitless
and impracticable proposition which
will cost many needless millions, is
the claim of Captain Harmon B.
Bresee, of Lacrosse, Wis, one Of the
few surviving early-day pilots Of the
Mississippi river. To prove that he
is right, Captain Bresee proposes to
start next summer a packet line be-
tween Lacrosse and Black River
Falls, Wis., giving all the towns
along Black river passenger and
freight service. This is the first at
tempt in ten years to navigate this
stream and Captain Bresee says he
will prove by the use of the fiat bot
tom gasoline boat that deep, clear
channels are not necessary to naviga-
ton.
The Black river between Lacrosse
and Black River Falls is filled with
sunken booms and logs, and trip
over it in recent years, even in small
boats, has been claimer to be more
or less perilous in places.
| If the plan of Captain Bresee proves
practicable it will mean commercial
route of great value to Black River
Falls as that city at present is prac
tically isolated. To reach there by
rail, a circuitous, slow and tedious
route must be followed, either by way
of Elroy or Camp Douglas and conse
quently the railroads are of but little
value as they affect the communica
ton between that city and Lacrosse
