The Right ay to Drain.

The State Of North Dakota has
sued the State Minnesota for
damages caused BY the overflow Of
lands along the Red River, caused
by the ditching of#Waters into Lake
Traverse, the headWater Of the Red,
by western counties Of Minnesota
The Browns Valley Tribune, pub
lished at the head Of Lake Traverse,
contends that no damages can be
collected, because this lake and the
riyeE flowing ousssof It are interstate
waters, forming the boundary
between the twoa States. Minnesota,
therefore, has the right to improve
the drainage of ills its lands into these
waters. s5Ssss #
The Tribune very justly observes,
however, that the fault is this, as
in many local drainage projects il
Minnesota, lies in the fact that the
matter of the final outlet is not
properly considereda We dig bitches,
and deepen and, straighten natural
waterways, with view to draining
rich lands. But We do not figure on
what is to become sof the surplus

tions would p rs ssof slowly, but

The Germans, who have given the
world SO many surprises since this
great war started, have again shown
their ingenuity and resourcefulness
by building and successfully navi-
eating across the Atlantic a large
unarmed submarine designed for
freight traffic, This strange vessel,
the first Of it's class and named the
Deutschland, coming direct from
Bremen, glided into the harbor at
Baltimore on Sunday morning, car
rying cargo Of $50 tons Of dye
stuffs and other goods valued at over
million dollars. Again has been
verified the truth of the saying, that
necessity is the mother Of invention.
With the control Of the sea In
British hands and a blockade main
tanned against all commerce to- and
from Germany, that country has
been practically shut out from the
outside world. In order to break
the blockade it was necessary to
evade the vigilance Of the British
blockading squadrons. That feat
has been accomplished by the new
craft. It is claimed that an entire
fleet of such vessels have or are be-
ing built for the purpose Of main
tanning regular freight traffic with
neutral countries This exploit
sounds almost, like a tale of Jules
Verne or the Arabian Nights. It's
practical nature still remains to be
demonstrated, but if future trips are
as successful as the initial one,
great results are bound to follow.
A new chapter navigation has
been written. A nation that shows
such wonderful inventive genius is
tt be admired and should not be
crushed. u.

FINANCING PIG CLUBS.
Bankers Furnish Money to Members
and Take Their Personal
Notes 5..s#S8s

The bankers in many States are
realizing the value Of pig-club work
as means Of materially improving
rural conditions, according to club
agents Of the department. Not q
few Of the bankers have made it
possible for worthy club members
to secure pigs on their personal
notes. In this way a well -bred pig.
is secured and the member can pay
for it from the proceeds Of the pig
as a meat animal or from the sale
Of offspring in the case Of q breed
ing animal. The member enters into
a business agreement with the par
.ents' consent) with the banker and is
in this way relieved of the stigma
of charity, which is the result when.
a pig is given outright. This arr
rangement is a practical means Of
teaching business methods to the.
rural young people. It is also a
character-building process, for it is
but natural for boy when treated
as a man to act in a manly manner.
q This apparent generosity on the,
part Of the bankers is in many cases.
business acumen. A case in point is
that Of a Texas bank The presi-
dent Of the bank placed 326 pigs
among the pig-club members Of his
county. AS result of the acquain-
lance made in securing and placing
these pigs, many new patrons were
secured. These patrons brought in
over $4,000 in individual deposits.
Needless to say this was profitable
business for the bank, but it is also
a means that will increase with time
in it's beneficial influence. One Of
the Texas papers states that the
banker 1.has laid the foundation for
q prosperity which will be lasting.
The boys that he has helped to get
started in the hog business are now
on their feet financially and before
many years they will be making big
shipments Of hogs to market each
year. The money received from the
sale Of hogs will be expended in fur
ther developing the county. Every
merchant in the county will profit,
the banks will get more deposits,
and the farmers will have more
money with which to further de.
