EVERYBODY WILL HELP PAY
FOR FIXING BANKS OF RIVER

A plan for curbing the Nooksack
river and preventing the destruction
of valuable farm lands at various
points along it's banks. has been
worked out by the county commits
sioners in cooperation with the coun-
ty engineers office. Since efforts to
obtain an appropriation from the
state legislature failed, the work will
raised in the county. Work has been
started at some of the worst points
to save valuable farm land from pos
sible overflows or from being cut
away by the currents of the stream.
The money will be spent on a sort
of half-and-half basis, the county ap-
propriating one-half while the land
owners, deriving a direct benefit
from the improvements will be called
upon to complete the expenses. A
plan for levying l mill tax. inde-
pendent of any legislative action.
was put into effect by the board. and
as a result about $4,000 will be
raised in that manner. An equal
amount will be raised by assessments
on the benefiting, property.
In cases where piling is driven and
wing dams are put in to protect
bridges the county will bear the
heavy end of the exper Sc, states
Chairman Mcmillan, and he also
states that he is in favor Of the /
mill tax being levied each year in
order that the river might be brought
under control as soon as possible.
An illustration of what is intend
ed to be accomplished by the COM
in this river work is on
the Northeast Diagonal road at the
Lawrence corner, just at the point
where the Nugents bridge crosses the
Nooksack. A large amount of land
has been cut here by the river;
sort of little curve, or horseshoes,
caught the current of the river and
has gradually increased in size until
very large amJLnt CT valuable
farm land has been lost. 1t is plan
ned to straighten the river at this
point and cause the overflow to be
carried over the gravel land at a
Loint nearby, thus reducing the loss
many times.
Dolphins will be put in at various
points in the rive- between Marietta
and Nugcnts bridge.

and gifts to the Red Cross, United
War Work, Armenian Relief and 9TH

That the country districts were
able to meet these heavy war drains
and still show a fine gain indicates
a measure of prosperity for Whatcom
County greater than it has ever
known.

follows: Everson, $33,254; Sumas.
s23.12S; Ferndale, $65.4O6; Blaine.
