ALL FO0DSTUFFS

Those Destined for Germany, Austria
and Turkey So Declared by
Great Britain

Washington, Feb. Great Britain
notified the United States today tho
not officially, that foodstuffs of any
kind destined for Germany, Austria,

traband of war.
The action of the British govern.
ment Is based on the recent German
decree whereby that government will
take over all grain In Germany for
common use.
Because the Steamer Wilhelmina
sailed from New York for Bremen
before the issuance of the decree, 1t
is understood her cargo of food for
German civilians will be paid for
and appropriated by the British gov
eminent and the ship allowed to go
free.

FARMERS WILL FIGHT
TO SAVE THEIR LAND

Provo, Feb. 2.-Will Uncle Sam
be compelled to meet an injunction
suit or to provide drainage for the
seepage water of the Strawberry
project? This question will have to
be answered by the interior depart
ment within the next few weeks or
the Utah Lake Association viii bring
proceedings to prevent the head
gates being lifted at the east portal
of the. Strawberry project.
At the present time the landowners
around the lake say they are fight
ing desperately to save their farms
from complete inundation and them
selves from financial ruin. Already
the lake is several inches above com.
promise point and thousands OF acres
of land are under water. A wet
spring would raise the lake several
inches more, 1t is feared, and <me
engineers estimate that the seepage
waters from the Strawberry project
will in the course of year add from
ten to eighteen inches OF water TO
the depth of the lake. This they say
would mean the flooding of land in
some sections more than mile from
the banks of the lake, and they al
lege that even in the west part of
Provo orchards will be damaged thru
he rise in water.
For a long time the farmers living
around the lake have been fighting
70 proper drainage at the Jordan
narrows, but their success has been
limited, and unless action Is taken
to drain OFF the seepage water from
the lands irrigated by Strawberry
water, Utah county farmers will not
be able to farm thousands of acres
Of land no wunder cultivation, It is
said.
