said proposed district, stating that
certain lands in Lincoln and Doug
las townships along the East branch
of the West Nishna Botna River in

for cultivation, subject to overflow
and that the. public health, welfare
and convenience would be benefited
and promoted by ditching, drainage,
and leveeing the same, changing the
water courses therein.
The following lands are included
in the proposed drainage district:
Lands in sections 25, 26, 35, 27, "a,
Township 81, North, range SO, Lin
coin township; and sections 3, 4, s,
8, 10, Z, II and IS, Township 80,
North, Range 36, Douglas township.
West 9Th p. NJ, Audubon County,

The petitioners ask that an engin-
eer be appointed to make the neces-
sary survey and the examination of
the lands described; and to lay out
the system of drainage and they also
ask that such engineer, county aud
itor, and Board of Supervisors, do
all things necessary to establish and
construct system of drainage i'm
provement that will protect and re-
claim the lands described and refer
red to in said petition.
Upon request of the petitioners the
Board of Supervisors on. March gath,

ell Bluffs, Iowa, to make the prelim-
mary survey.

provements petitioned for. This re-
port was received and examined by

bon, Iowa, on June 14th, 1920 and

rected to prepare notice to all inter-
ested persons as required by law.
