~ an agreement between the var
department At Washington and the
TEXAS state department the iesees
on each side OF the river must be
constructed fourteen hundred feet
apart. In other words. the levee on
each side Of the river must be con-
straeted seven hundred feet back
from the center OF the channel OF
the river As a result OF this ar
rangcment a considerable strip Of
land Is left outside the protected
area. il is estimated that in build
ing the ievee In district No. 2 about
nine hundred acres will be wasted.
The property owner doesn't lose this
entirely. Each district has arranged

sonabIe amount per acre in damages
Where the amount cannot be agreed

appointed TO fix the price. This us

That these reclamation projects
are a great boon to the land owners
along the river Is evidenced by tht
fact that land values have already
Dcen increc sed. One farmer whose
land is situated Inside the protect
ing walls OF the leyee stated that
his timber land. which had previous
lily been valued at $40 an acre could
not be bought for less than 500
His cultivated land could not be
touched for less than 800 an acre
| Another fact which has beer
brought out by the projects now un'

ton of the state of Texas hinder'
rather than encourages the develop
ment OF the reclamation idea. Tn

The first half closed with score of 8 to
10 in the High Schools favor. During
the second half the score was tied num-
Der of times and the victory seemed as
much inclined toward one side as toward
the other. Toward the end of the half
the score stood "a to "a, when the High
School managed to find the ring again,
thus gaining the victory. The passing
of the D. M. L. C. quint deserves special
mention. The loose guarding, especial
lu during the last part of the last half,
contributed greatly to their defeat.

To neutralize these Irritating acids, to

SERVICE LINE.

Mayor Chas. Bush has been in COM
munication with, the Northwestern
Power Co. Of Minneapolis and has the
assurance of the construction of an
electric power and light line providing
towns along this line of railroad consider
the project favorably. Arlington has
been endeavoring to get the Consumers
Power CO. to extend their line to that
place, but because Of the distance for the
extension line without serving inter
mediate points, this may not materialize.
The Northwestern Co. intend to connect
up all towns along the M. & St. L. and
this project seems most promising of any
suggested for getting continuous electric
current. They now operate line to
