STOPPING THE MISSOURI
How 1t Is Done on the Big Farms Up
the River From This
City.

The Big Muddy is always hungry
and each fall and spring demonstrates
around st. Joseph its power as a
gourmand by eating UP acre after acre
of the finest land in this section. In
this connection 1t can now be stated
that "cure" has been found by Me-
braska contracting firm OF whose op-
erations in Atchison county the Mail
Of Rock Port says:
Wood Bros. Construction Co. OF
Lincoln, Neb.. has just completed the
work of placing protection on the
r4ver front of the fine 32O-acre farm
of e. C. Stewart, west Of Watson, No.
just below the Iowa line. This is
known as the Robert Watts farm and
is one of the best in the valley. The
river had been steadily cutting In on
the farm for considerable period and
several acres have been washed away
this season. 1t was necessary to re-
sort to some measure that would pre-
vent further cutting. This has been
accomplished by Woods Bros. Con-
struction Co. following the same
method which they used in protecting
their own tract of 2,2Oo acres west Of
Hamburg. This consists of placing
by hydraulic method, the Bignell Pile,
which is of reinforced concrete con-
struction, far below the bed Of the
river. To these piles are attached,
before being placed, cables; and then
trees are cut along the banks and
brought to the various locations where
the piles have been placed and at
tached.
rent, which, as soon as retarded, be-
gins to deposit a silt, forming a bar.
When the river rises the obstruction
protruding above the bar continues
the retarding process, and as the river
recedes the bar is left above the nor
NAL flow.
In protecting the Stewart farm
several piles were placed and the OBJ
lstruction attached and already the bar
has been formed, which prevents any
further cutting. AS a suggestion of
the effect this protection has on the
value of the land, Mr.. Stewart was
offered $50 more per acre for his
farm after this protection was in than
he was willing TO sell it for before
securing the protection, this first in
crease in the value being several times
greater than the cost of the protec-
tion.
I'm the case Of the 1900 acres west
Of Hamburg. the piles We're placed at
six different points along the river
front Of approximately a mile, and
trees attached. Already a bar has
been formed the full distance and the
,accreting process already begun.
1T appears that the farmers along
the Missouri river, whose farms have
hitherto been menaced by the cutting
Of the river, have a solution Of their
troubles in this system Of protection
which the Woods Bros. Construction
Co. have supplied not only to their
own land, but in furnishing protec-
ton for the Burlington road at differ
ent points along the river"
