to a purpose more useful to the pub
lie.
cit must not be forgotten that orig
inally numbering was about the only
interest in Northern Minnesota; that
farming AMI other business is of later
development and will constantly in
crease. Therefore, we should not feel
80 much opposed to the lumberman g
former activity as we should look with
clear understanding upon the valuable
uses to which these dams may now be
put. In this case we shall recoup part
of the original expenditure by the
good that the same dams may serve
in securing a regular flow of water
hereafter. The six dams can praeti-
cally control the waters when the nav
igation idea is correlated with agricul-
ture and water powers. The way to
keep the safest fow is to let the wa
ter from the reservoirs fill the river
to safe stage just before freezing
and then the water can be kept at
that stage all winter or until the reser-
voirs are empty. When the food wa
ters come, fill them again. The oppo-
site course has been followed here
tofore.
"The farmers will probably never
again suffer from as hign water as
they have in the past. It was COM
mon thing formerly for dozens Of log
gers on different streams to let out
the waters to drive logs at the same
time and when all these waters cen
tralized in the Mississippi river they
caused the floods.
"There should be no trouble Of diff
fculty in adjusting the water flow in
the future so as to get the best results
obtainable from good management.
The damage done in<the past should
be- settled for by the government, and
then it will bring things into general
harmony" s+%:*ss$I, I'M

MRS. MERCHANT FOUND HER
MONEY

st. Cloud Journal-Press (16): Mrs..
Ed. Marchant, who yesterday mourned
tho loss of several hundred dollars
which she had dropped while chopping
wood has recovered her money. This
morning the roll was found in a cigar
box attached to the side of the house,

It is believed that some one picked up
the roll as joke and retained it long
enough to cause Mrs. Marchant some
anxiety.

this direction that the great army OF
