stealthy in fastening itself on its victims
but its approach may be detected by
the peculiar pallor, languor, indisposi-

presence of these symptoms in the

Trees to be Removed From Big Island
just Below Burlington Where
Overflow Occurs.

About river work at and near Bur
lington, the Hawk-Eye says:
Surveyors who have been at work
on Big Island below the city for the
Keokuk power company will finish
their job this week. The men have
been staying here, going down each
morning in launch and returning at
night, and several weeks work has
been required to find out just how
much Of the island will be inundated
when the Keokuk dam is completed.
1t Is understood the company will
pay for this land, and, in addition
must clear away all of the trees that
would be under water This is a re-
quirement of the war department In
charge of river improvement. If the
trees are left standing they will be
stripped OF foliage after time, will
die and many will topple over into the
river, perhaps drifting into the chan
mel and forming menace to steam
boats

the dam. There will always be water
on the low places, and the company
will have to pay for this damage.
Last fall and winter the surveyors
worked opposite Burlington in the
Illinois bottoms to determine the
flood line and when the entire work
of surveying the islands is done the
company will know exactly what 1t
has to settle for in the way of claims
A visitor to the vicinity OF Kill
bourne, Wis, where water power
project flooded the country, said that
the trees along the river were denud-
ed, and the scene was sorry one. A
once beautiful stretch of waterways
was made hideous, as If some devasta-
/ ton had swept the country.

up, as quite wide stretch of the
