Two of the greatest advantages IF
drainage in our Southern States are
the promotion o. health and the deyol-
opment Of agriculture.
l am in hearty accord with the pur-
poses of the National Drainage Con-
gress, as l understand them. 1t seems
ito me that the Importance of the work

er drainage is a matter Of public neces-
sity and general concern. 1t means the
health of the people, and upon good
health depend their prosperity, happi-
mess and contentment. know of moth
ing so vital to the welfare and peace Of
the masses as health. Freedom from
sickness is humanitys most precious
boon.
1t is inexcusabla of those in author
Iity not to avail themselves of every
opportunity and every resource within
their power to safeguard a communitY
against disease and he it remembered
that drainage is a powerful help in
warding off many diseases. In my
opinion, it is likewise the duty of ey-

over many scenes of conflict.
BY drainage untold acres of unpro-
ductive land can be reclaimed, AMI
what were once marshes become fer
tile fields, covered with vendure and
golden grain, and smiling with peace
and plenty. 1t contributes to the de-
elopment of agriculture which is the
basis of all wealth-the corner stone
of our Republic. Drainage develops
agriculture and agriculture increases
population, builds railroads, constructs
good highways, erects school houses
and churches, adds to the attravtive-
ness of the home, turns the wheels of
commerce, and keeps alive the indus
trial spirit of the people,

and ever increasing strength-"where

will be largely attended, and will be
the means of awakening the public
interest in the very important matter
of drainage. I will give my hearty CO.
