Both the Minnesota and Cottonwood
rivers are again rising fast. The Cotton
wood went up about three feet since last
Saturday and the Minnesota is again
out of it's banks and still coming up.
According to the weather observer the
precipitation from Saturday to Monday
amounted to over two inches and as the
rain seemed general throughout the
Minnesota valley further rise of the
river may be expected for several days
at least. The farmers along the bottoms
expect little else than hay crop this
year as it will be too late now to put in
crop even if the rain does let up.

ASSOCIATION ASSISTS
ROAD CONSTRUCTION
LINCOLN HIGHWAY ORGANIZA
TION WILL AID SPARSELY -
SETTLED STATES

The following from an article in
the Metropolitan, shows that the
Lincoln Highway association is
making a nation wide effort to
raise funds for road construction
in the desert sections of the west:
The people of Wyoming, Utah
and Nevada are doing everything
possible to make the Lincoln high
way as perfect a road as their
limited will allow. One
county in Wyoming with a popula-
ton of $4,000, end a section of
the highway some 1872 miles in
length, has spent in one season
over 100000 for road improve
ment and maintenance. Churchill
county. Nevada, with 5000 popu-
lation and an area of over 5000
square miles, has spent an mount
equivalent to over $3.50 for every
man. woman and child in the
county.
1T is in Utah and Nevada where
the worst conditions at present
exist on the Lincoln highway, and
where the Lincoln highway tourist
has encountered his chief Difficult
ties. and yet the necessary funds
to improve these natural desert
roads and make ~boulevards of
them would be insignificant in The
face of national cooperation to-
ward their improvement. Hard
surfaced permanent roads. under
present conditions in the west, are
absolutely impossible with the funds
provided through regular road I'M
provement sources.
Nevada with a population OF
about $4,000 people, is the fourth
largest state in the union, has 425
miles of Translate Lincoln high
way. and by no possibility and no
matter how great an effort could
the necessary funds for the i'm
provement of this entire road be
raised within the state. 1t is here,
as in Utah and Wyoming that the
association appeals for the aid of the
people of the country. The popu-
lous and wealthy east must real
ize that if a good, through con-
nection of a transcontinental road
is desired, its financial aid must DE
had. Funds should be sent to the
national headquarters of the Lin
coin Highway association, Detroit,
Michigan.
