1872 OVERFLOW
crevasse at BeuIah Continues
10 Grow Wider, With Water
Still Rising.

MEMPHIS, TENN, Jan. 29.-Engi-
,szrs in charge of the work at the Gre
,,sse at Beulah, Miss, today admitted
.5e food situation was very grave. No
sorhr remains but that the flood will
reach the disastrous proportions at
aimed by the overflow Of 1912. The
,rorJl of driving piles back of the Gre
,.assa in an attempt to control the
snread Of the waters will be begun to-
fsv but the engineers fear little can be
done TO check the overflow.
Dostitution and suffering are on all
sides. A carload of supplies sent to the
food sufferers in the district surround
ing Reulah and Lobell, Miss, was dis
rfhuted today. but it was entirely In
adequate to alleviate the hunger Of the
victims.
The water in this district is now ten
feet deep The path of the overflow has
washed a veritable bayou through thou
sands of acres of rich farming lands,
carving many farm houses with it.
Engineers watching the flood at Mo-
doc fear a break at that point when the
crest arrives the latter part of this
week. Several large forces of men are
at work at weak points exerting every
effort to raise and strengthen the levee
south of Helena.
The water in Bayou Gayoso is now
over its banks in Memphis and sand
bags are being used at many points in
an effort to prevent a further over
flow.
The gauge at Memphis today showed
40 feet. with the water still rising.
White river. at Batesville, Ark is
reported falling slightly. Considerable
damage was done there.
Two million five hundred feet of saw
logs were washed away from Stoneville,
Miss. nine miles east of Greenville, to-
day. A spur railroad running from
Stoneville has been washed away in
many places and the town, 40 miles
from the Beulah crevasse, is rapidly be-
ing inundated.

BUILDER Of CITY
PLANTSPRODDED
Dady Must Rush Work on
Peachtree and IntrenChment
Work, Says Council.

Councils sewer committee and bond
commission, acting jointly, have adopt
ed a resolution recommending to coun-
ell that no further extensions of time
be granted to the contractor of the
Peachtree and Intrenchment creek sew
age disposal plants. On the report of
Construction Chief Clayton, they decid-
ed that Chester A. Dady, the contractor
who is building the 100000 plants, was
not making sufficient effort to live up
to his contract and the officials want
him to understand they are ready to
look to his bondsman for redress.
Captain Clayton said that his depart
ment was being blamed for the slow
work on these plants and he was de-
termined to make council understand
that the contractor was to blame and
that it was up to council to make the
contractor live up to his agreement.
Contractor Dady appeared at the
meeting and said that he was making
every possible effort to finish the work,
but that he had found 1t impossible to
get enough crushed stone.

MAY GET A FARM AGENT
Muskegon County Can Get Govern
ment Expert by Paying Part Of
the Salary.

Congressman James c. Mclaughlin
of the Ninth district has promised the
people of Muskegon county a farm
agent from the federal government II
said people, through their supervisors
or otherwise, will contribute $1,000 a
year towards the expense, which In
cludes the salary of the agent, and
will run from 81, 900 to $4,000 annually.
Kent county has had farm expert for
a year now and the results have been
so great that the surrounding counties
are beginning to appreciate the value
Of having a man always ready to hur-
ry to the help OF the farmers who
need help that their crops may not be
Lost because OF some new soil OF eli
matte condition.
Newaygo county also has a farm
agent, who is located at Fremont, and
goes from township to township con-
sulting with the farmers who wish
advice as to how they can handle
their lands so as to get the best net
returns. Allegan and Kalamazoo coun-
ties both have farm agents, as do
some OF the other counties in the
southern part Of the state. 1t Is be-
lieved that these men, who are under
the joint provision of the Michigan
Agricultural college and the federal
department of agriculture and are sup
posed to be men with broad trainings,
are often able TO save more than their
total expenses by giving advice at
critical times. Many and many farm
crop has been lost because troubles
have appeared which the farmers with
their limited experience have been I'M
able to diagnose. The farm agent
with his broader experience and with
the agricultural interests of the coun'
try back of him to draw upon, is more
quickly able to find out how to meet
these emergencies than the individual
grower. The same as the doctor who
sees many cases of illness in many
houses is better able TO prescribe than
the individual who has neither medi'
cal training nor broad experience.
Muskegon county being wealthy and
containing many acres Of land which
calls for special treatment from an
agricultural standpoint can we'll afford
TO directly or indirectly furnish the
funds necessary for a county agent,
and undoubtedly It viii.
