age boards or drain commissioners of
this state and adjoining states for the
purpose of assisting in the drainage
and reclamation of land in the valleys
of boundary line rivers. This bill is
designed primarily to assist in the re-
lief of flood conditions in the Red
river valley. This commission is also
required to submit a report Of their
Investigations, together with recon-
mendations. to the next legislative
assembly.
These two bills are the first step to-
ward solving the troublesome problem
Of flood control along the Red river.
as 1t affects the three states of North
Dakota Minnesota and South Dakota.
The floods have done q great deal of
damage in the valley and affected
property owners have tried for many
years to get federal relief, as the Red
river il classed as being navigable.
Under the laws just passed, similar
ones having been adopted by Minneso-
ia and South Dakota. Il Is certain that
definite plans can be worked out to
relieve the situation. The chief diff
Guilty heretofore has been the lack of
similarity in the drainage laws, and
the fact that there was no way in
which the states affected could CO.
operate. Federal permission has been
secured from congress permitting such
cooperation.
These bills are the most important
ones passed at this session OF the legis-
lature. affecting highways, irrigation
and drainage in the state, and are all
of progressive and constructive ma
ture.

New Laws Affecting
Drainage, irrigation and
Highways Important

for the purpose of road maintenance
fund, one third of all net fees re-
ceived from any county. Two-thtrds
of the net fees are deposited with the
state treasurer to the credit of the
state highway fund. Out of the fund
thus created the state highway COM
mission must first deduct its expens-
es, and Of the balance 80 per cent
shall be expended in the county from
which it came, provided that the
county appropriates an equal amount
of money. The ten per cent of this
balance may be expended by the state
highway commission at its own dis
cretion without regard to its sources:
The state engineer, as secretary OF
the state highway commission, is at
the present time collecting all the pre-
liminary data that is available, most
of which is required by the federal
department, and all of which is neces-
sary for the use Of the state highway
commission.
AS the state engineer has indicated
on a number OF occasions, the entire
success of the work contemplated I'M
der the highway bill depends upon the
cooperation of the counties and the
state in their dealings with the federal
government. 1t has been urged that
the counties would be seriously Grip
pied by reason Of the loss of the net
automobile fees, which have hereto
fore been almost wholly expended in
the maintenance Of roads. 1t Is point
ed out, however, that section 1916 Of
the Compiled laws of 1913 is amended
in House Bill No. 1913 so as to special
ly provide that such funds may be ex-
pended for the dragging Of roads, so
the counties are not left in position
where they are unable to maintain
roads that they have previously built.
The difficulties Of its task are fully
appreciated by the state highway COM
mission and it will make every posi-
BILE effort to impress upon each coun-
ty the importance of its doing it's
full part. BY working together they
can secure excellent results and enjoy
the benefits of federal aid. Working
at cross purposes will defeat the en-
tire purpose Of the highway bill and
lose to the state the advantages Of
federal aid.
H. B. No. f67 increases the amount
of the license fee for motor vehicles
and provides that such fee shall be
in lieu of all other taxes. The in
creased fee does not go into effect
until Jan. /, 1918.
The purpose Of this bill is to place
increased funds at the disposal Of the
state highway commission in order to
meet with the annually increasing
amount Of federal aid. 1t is expected
this this increase will enable the state
highway commission to successfully
meet federal aid for the two year
period, and possible longer, without

way.
Concerning transporting the OIL
Commissioner Carlos Koning stated
that they had found a suitable terrane
where pipe lines could be laid, and
along which pumps would be installed
at intervals to pump the oil from the
lowlands about Santa Cruz, to the 'al-
tiplano," the lowest pass over the
Andes being not less than $500 meters,
The pipe line would pass through Ato-
cha and Uyuni. and once the oil had
been brought to the plateau the prob
lem of transporting ii OF Antofagasta
pipe lines would be built to carry oil
to Bolivian mining centers.
Every facility was extended to the
commission by the Bolivian govern
ment during the course of their ex-
petition, which had lasted 81 days.
The length OF the pipe line which II
would be necessary to construct, Mr.
Koning stated, was a minimum of 500
kilometers. Wood would be utilized
in this construction as much as pos
sible, cutting the metallic pipe down
to minimum. This system, It was
stated, was already in extensive use
in the United States and Russia.
Regarding the prospects OF the un-
dertaking, Mr.. Koning stated that the
welcome which had been extended TO
the enterprise by the Bolivian gov
eminent could be well understood
when IL was remembered that one of
the greatest obstacles to the indus
trial development of Bolivia is the
scarcity OF fuel. About 800 per ton
is being paid for petroleum In Bolivia
at the present time.

There are a great many successful
garages in the United States but this
is the story of little garage in a lit
tie town that has made q big success.
For seventeen years a machinist
worked in the locomotive department
of the C. b. & @. railway at Burling-
ton, Iowa. He was good machinist
steady, reliable and industrious,
who performed his tasks faithfully
day after day.
In 1912 he decided that he would like
to sell automobiles and ultimately
have a garage of his own, and so Ed
Rheinschmidt gave up his job and
started in the automobile business.
He had but little money-not enough
to buy his first demonstrator, but he
borrowed enough from friend to buy
his first car and opened up his sales
rooms in an old blacksmith shop. OF
course his competitors laughed and
called him q .curbstone dealer" but
Ed went right ahead.
And then--before he had sold his
first car. sorrow visited hia home
and he lost two OF his three SONS Al
little later his wife follow ed, leaving
him alone with his little boy.
One day he was walking down the

any considerable direct appropriation
from the state. 49,.
At least three other states have
license laws similar to the one adopted
by this state.
H. B. No. 203 provides for the main
tenance Of built roads by the vari-
GUS townships 1t provides that in
townships where there are graded
roads tax shall be levied which shall
net the township SIS per mile for each
mile of improved road, for the express
purpose Of dragging the roads. This
law is an excellent one and the bene-
fetal results should be immediate, the
proper dragging Of earth roads being
fully as important as building them in
the first place.
Irrigation.
HI. B. No. 175 provides for the for
nation of irrigation districts and is of
particular interest to the people Iiv.
ing under the government irrigation
projects in Mckenzie and Williams
counties, although the bill is general
and would apply to any irrigation
projects that might be started. All
of the western states have similar
irrigation district laws. North Dakota
being the last state in which irriga-
ton work Is done to adopt such legis-
lation.
This bill provides the machinery
whereby associations wishing to form
irrigation districts can do SO and
secure federal aid in the undertak-
ing.
Little interest has been taken in
irrigation the last few years, owing to
better farming methods and the I'm
creased rainfall in the western por-
ton of the state. With the recurrence
of dry years interest will pick up
again, and this new law is sure to be
much appreciated. This bill adds
considerably to the duties of the state
engineers Office, should any irrigation
districts be formed.
Drainage.
II. B. No. 157 provides for additional
powers and duties to damage districts
and drainage boards of this state, and
is designed to enable drainage dis
tricts in this state to cooperate with
any drainage districts Of other states
in the control of floods on rivers which
are state boundaries This legislation
applies particularly to the conditions
affecting the Red river valley
III. B. No. 249 provides for a COM
mission consisting OF three citizens
appointed by the governor who are
authorized to cooperate with drain

The Fifteenth legislative assembly,
just closed. enacted a considerable
amount Of constructive legislation in
regard to highways, irrigation and
drainage. Most of these laws add to
the duties of the state engineers Of
fee.
First in Importance is House Bill
No. 1SS, which became law with the
governors signature. This law Gre
ates state highway commission and
provides for corporation on the part
of the state with the various counties
and with the federal government.
The state engineer is designated as
the secretary of the highway commits
sion and is made it's chief engineer. It
is expected that so far as is prac-
ticable the Office appliances and equip
ment, engineering and clerical help
of the state engineers office will be
used by the state highway commits
sion, such additional help as may be
required to be employed by the ctate
highway commission, such additional
help as may be required to be en-
ployed by the state highway commits
sion as necessary.
AS soon as possible the state high
way commission will meet for the pur-
pose of organizing and preparing its
program for the summers work. The
commission has many problems to
solve and serious difficulties to over
come, and it will require full cooper
alton between the various counties,
the state highway commission and the
federal government in order that the
actual construction of highways may
be begun this summer.
The state highway bill leaves the
initiative in road matters largely to
the county commissioners. 1t is the
duty of the county commissioners and
the highway commission together to
designate the roads that shall receive
state and federal aid. When these
have been determined upon it remains
for the county commissioners to petit
ton the state highway commission
