IRRIGATION A
Amendments TO Constitution to BE
Voted On this Fall.

Pierre, Sept. 2.-One of the pro-
posed amendments to the constitution
of South Dakota, on which the voters
will pass this fall. and which will
have strong organized backing. is
that providing for creating irrigation
districts and issuing bonds to pay for
comprehensive irrigation work.
The plan proposed is much like
that employed In constructing drain
age bitches in the eastern part of the
state whereby the property benefited
is made to pay the cost of the prof.
eet. 1t was found that the legisla-
ture could not provide for such irri-
cation projects under the present
constitution and the proposed amend
ment is designed to give ample au-
thority for the work.
At a meeting hare of ranchers
from west of the river and business
men of the Black Mountain foothills
towns, the South Dakota Irrigation
association was formed, with Doane
Robinson as president and C. l.. Mel
lette of FIT. Pierre, treasurer. An
ing of one vice chairman from each
county west of the river. A secretary
will be employed and an active cam
paign conducted to induce the voters
of the state to ratify the amendment.
By using the water from available
streams and storing Hood waters, 1t
is believed the semiarid areas under
the shadow of the Elack Mountains
can be made to blossom as the rose.
Projects too small to be undertaken
by the United States government will
be put through by land owners COM
bined in irrigation districts. the ne
cessary capital being provided by the
issuance of bonds against all the
property combined in the district.

 True, the first cost is $5 or $6 gallon put on; but it saves more than that in the property; saves it from slow going down-not always slow-it drops with a jump when water gets i'll on wood and iron.
 Dry wood and iron cost nothing, kept dry by paint. ... Better paint when it needs it. Paint never 2 )es down in the sense of being more profitable next year.
