Arguments Concerning Pro-
posed Monster Ditch.

September 18th, is the date set for
the opening of the hearing on the big
Judicial Ditch No. which will be

would probably be the biggest ditch
ing undertaking attempted in the

yohi Lake running southeast thru
towns of Fahlun, Lake Elizabeth, East
Lake Lillian and into Meeker county.
With it's proposed tributaries it will
be about so miles in length and affect
351 landowners. The main ditch as
recommended by the engineer, John
Norgaard, would be 80 feet wide at the
bottom and in many places sixty feet
at the top. The total cost is estimat-
ed at $206,O26.00 and the estimate
benefits $295,S9S0O. Attorneys T. o.
Gilbert Of Willmar and l.. D. Barnard
of Renville have been employed as at
torneys for the petitioners. The hear
ing no doubt will attract a large mum.

stands the C. c. Birkeland farm home,
for the husband and father passed
away from the family circle last
Thursday, Aug. II, after a years suf-
