LAW PROVIDES FOR
FLOOD FIGHT FUND
Communities May Organize
to Protect Lands From
River ONerflOMS-

1T Is not generally known that the
legislature Of 1909 passed an act en-
aiding localities TO organize improvement
districts for the purpose of protecting
their lands against river Overflows." said
Judge A. S. j. Eylar today.
One OF the most difficult propositions
confronting the farmers in the valley Is
to protect their lands against the nav
ages of the river floods and this prob
lem viii increase in Importance as the
value of the land enhances. While It Is
true that the construction of the Ele-
plant Butte dam VIII do much to lie
crease the danger from floods, neverthe-
less the highest flood of last year was
from water that fell this side of the
dam. An overflow and levee improve
ment district can issue bonds and in this
way secure . percent money on long
time and by a majority vote compel all
in the district TO come in for their share
instead of compelling the man next the
river. as Is now so often the case, to do
all the fighting. There are two local.
ties now contemplating the formation of
such an improvement district, and if the
possibilities of successful liver defence
under this act were better known. If
might be that more farmers would be
glad to avail themselves Of its benefits.
en- this connection it might be stated
that the city engineer, who has been re-
quested bv those living near Washington
