ACRES
CAN Be DRAINED
Plan Is Before Drainage Con-
gress to Meet in St. Louis
to Aid Project.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Nov. 1s.-Eivhtv
million acres Of wet and overlooked
lands, located in various parts OF the
country, could be quickly and economi-
caliy reclaimed by drainage or by levee
protection, according to John A. Fox.
Of Chicago, who is here arranging for
Ihe annual convention Of the National
drainage congress TO be held here Nov.
IL. ~ and 10.
Cabinet members, governors OF a
number OF states, investment bankers
distinguished engineers from vari-
Gus parts OF the United States have
oeen invited to attend the congress, the
WoTK OF which is OF particular interest
70 farmers throughout the country, be-
cause II plan for the opening Of mill
mons OF acres Of new and extremely
productive lands for settlement and
development.
The congress, Of which Edmund c.
Perkins, OF Chicago, is president, is an
association OF all interests In this
country either directly or Indirectly
concerned in the drainage, reclamation
n development Of swamp and over
flowed lands. 1t does not advocate anv
particular scheme nor indorse any par
tleular project, but II has worked con-
t~inuously for the last seven years to
awaken public sentiment to an appreci-
alton OF the vast benefits TO be derived
from the reclamation and utilization,
though state and federal cooperation,
OF the great areas OF wet and overflow
ed lands,
MIR. Fox, in explaining the idea OF
the congress said: while the larger
areas of swamp and overlooked lands
are to be found in the immediate Mis-
sissippl valley and along the Atlantic
n Gulf coasts, there are, neverthe-
less, areas Of sufficient size in most of
the other states to Justify their interest
In the matter. Taken in the aggregate,
these 80, 000, 900 acres of land comprise
an area of 1875, 600 square miles, or a
greater area thar the combined areas
of Illinois and Iowa.
This land is probably the richest
n most productive of any of our
lands. Nearly every farmer is familiar
with this character of land as bottom
lands and knows that his bottom lands
are the richest and will produce more
than any other land on his farm. Every
acre of this rich undratned region is
bottom land and, when reclaimed and
put under cultivation, 1t will produce
from three to four times as much as
the ordinary upland.
In their present swampy condition,
these Underlined lands iii the various
states are a nuisance and a menace to
health, while IL reclaimed and utilized
they will be extremely productive areas.
Fol that reason every community ad-
jacent to these wet and overlooked
| sections is participating in the activi-
ties of the National Drainage congress
! with a view to having something done
that will lead to their early drainage
II reclamation"
