ASTONISHING RESULTS FROM SUCCESSFUL DRAINAGE AS APPLIED
10 The San LUIS VALLEY AGRICULTURAL DISTRICTS
cnce Of all other conditions.

ence Of all other conditions.
There are two kinds Of soil drainage
natural and artificial. and where natural
drainage does not exist, the artificial kind must
be constructed To this rule there are no ex-
ceptions. And trip through the different
drainage districts In this valley will convince
the most skeptical that drainage is doing won
ders in increasing crop production.
Land to be exceptionally productive
must thoroughly dry out at least once a year.
You cannot raise crops in a swamp or on land
that becomes "sour" from excessive water sup
ply. And II the land in its normal condi-
ton fails to sufficiently drain. then artificial
drainage should be constructed. and the ear
lier such drainage systems are established, the
more profitable and productive the farm will
Immediately become for its owner.
This week we made an inspection of
the crops northeast of Monte Vista where
drainage latcrals and bitches have been con-
structed. and to sayt hat bountifu harvests
will be made expresses the crop prospects very
mildly Where laterals have been con-
structed twelve months or more splendid crops
are being grown. The alfalfa, peas. wheat,
OATS barley and potatoes will produce yields
that will seem almost unbelievable to nom
residents and astOnish all who live in the valley.

Thursday morning. the Pan
counsel called C. H. Kohler as
witness but his testimony
was held to be not admissible
on the grounds of being incom-

stated that they expected to
show a great many things thru
Mr.. Kohler "if he did not COM

to prove the existence Of a

And the people Of this city and the land owners
in this agricultural district should get strongly
behind the reservoir and drainage problems.
because the development Of these two enter

the land owners Of this locality are demonstrate
ing by their successful methods of handling
these problems that they are alive to the Won

those in search Of farm home should SER
iously consider both storage and drainage. and
II you do this and compare the land values
with farms in other farming sections you will
find many advantages favorable to the San

and many miles Of soil drainage built and in

LETTER FROM VIM. KLOPP.
Beaudesert, ia Convalescent Camp,
December IL. 1918.


December II, 1918.
Dear PARENTS Brothers and Sisters:
just few lines to let you know ]
am well and feeling fine. 1 am now in
the convalescent camp just little way
from the hospital. I came here Dec.
End and am now in Co. again. All I
do is little drilling sometimes the
other day I did some carpenter work.
i have not had any mail since the
middle of October and it seems like it
does no good to write to the old Co. for
the mail. I saw one of the Sergeants
Of old Co. and he has had no mail
since September. The weather here is
damp and foggy all the time, but not
very cold. I suppose you have some
snow by this time l would rather be
where the snow, stays Oh the ground,
than here. I do not know Wien will
get out of here for We hear all kinds
of rumors and where go from here 1
do not know either. Ny Division is
following the Germans and seeing that
they come up to the agreements. be-
long to the Goth. I have given up
hopes of being back by Xmas, but hope
it will not be very long after do not
know anything more for this time.
Hoping these lines reach you all in the
best of health as they leave me. Wish
ing all Merry Xmas and Happy
New Year. From your Son and
Brother, William KlOpp.
