erage cost per acre of $2.15.
The cost of this system of drainage
Strengthening the channels of all the
tributaries Of the Red river.
Thus it is to be seen that the en-
tire cost of this drainage system
would be nearly all returned to the
land owners in one crop season. I
do not mean that each individual
farmer would be reimbursed for his
outlay in ditch construction for some
would pay more than the average
cost per acre and some less depend
: ing on the compa rative benefit to
the land.
The estimate Of the increased in
come from the lands if efficiently
drained does not include the value
to the highway system of the valley
nor to the health of it's inhabitants
by thorough drainage. Neither does
it include the unreasonable increase
in contentment and general prosper

such improvements. So much for the
value to TIE people Of the valley as a
whole if properly drained. Now as
to the direct value to TIE individual
farmer. Some of our farmers have a
mistaken idea that if we drain land
that really needs it. but that can be
worked with some difficulty without
drainage, we are taking moisture
away from the land that the crops
will need later on should there hap

be utilized by the plants. this is fall
lacy that has long since been explod-
ed. When we see water lying on the
top of the soil in spots on any nearly
level field that is being cropped, we
may be sure that the water table is
very high and that the plant growth
is being retarded; the water standing
in this field gives evidence that at
the level Of this water in other parts
of this field we may expect to find
the soil completely saturated and as
our grain roots cannot go below the
water table they necessarily cannot
obtain as much plant food as though
the water table were lower.
So then the draining of the land
lowers the water table and therefore
increases the store Of plant food
which can be drawn upon. Further
more, when the level Of the ground
water is lowered then the plant roots
penetrate lower and their decay
