HIGH-PRIcED FARM LAND Reel
AIMED FROM SWAMPS.
BY W. A. Martin,

BY w. A. Martin.
National Crop Improvement Service.1
r T HAS been estimated that nearly
one-half Of the farm lands Of
America are standing idle be-
cause they are not in tillable condi-
ton. For instance, in the state Of
Wisconsin there are thousands of
small lakes most of which are sur
rounded by more or less wonderful
rich land which is either overlooked
or low-lying in boys.
1t is one of the problems of every
agricultural college to put this land
in farming condition and much prog
ress Is being made in introducing
modern methods of draining this
land.
County agricultural agents in coun-
ties which have such low-lying lands,
are holding drainage meetings and
they will all welcome any man who
is in search of drainage information.
No man who has a wet farm should
neglect putting it in tillable condi-
ton.
Many instances are cited of won
derful results from merely making
V-shaped bitches. One county agent
states that a farmer at Green Bay,
Wis, by the name of M. Bodenheimer,
had 800 acres of fiat land on which
the water stood whenever 1t rained.
The water would sog into the land
and consequently it kept too soft and
wet to work. He acquired this land
about eighteen years ago and he al
ways thought a lot of the place as
the soil was of a rich nature and he
was determined to get something out
If it,
He got signers and tried to bring

MADRID, Feb. 10.-Results of the
of the municipal elections that were

dictate Socialist candidates won in
many of the smaller cities and the

it does not actually control councils at

the results of the next general cleo
tions to the Cortes.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Jan. 10-A
campaign fund of $25,O00,000 surpass-
es the dream of any political manager,
! past or present, But no political man
ager ever had to consider. the require
ments of world campaign, with
special mode of attack in countries
as different as Japan and Great Brit
ain.
From this standpoint the vast sum
which the people of the United States
are soon to be asked to contribute for
a campaign to make the whole world
dry may not seem excessive Ten
nessees part in this fund will be $740,-
600 which is to be raised over the
state by the anti.saloon league cam.
paign Jan 16 to %.
A shining goal viii be pointed out in
the appeals for the $25,O00,000, that
by aggressive action at this time, fol-
lowing, the victory in the United
States, the leading countries in the
world may be made dry in a de-
cade," and world prohibition ushered
in. The prediction of virtual world
prohibition in ten years will be re-
ceived with derision in the bars of
London, the cafes of Paris and beer
halls Of Berlin, but the managers Of
the Anti-Saloon League of America
will no doubt parry the ridicnle by the
answer that while they are not set
ting up this goal as guarantee, the
prediction ten years ago that the Unit
ed States would be dry in 1920 would
have been hooted along Broadway,
New York.
An aggressive campaign may be ex-
pected World headquarters will be
opened in Washington i'll few weeks.
The fight will be made Under the
name Of the World League Against
Alcoholism, but the energy the STRAIT
egg and the leadership will be that or
the Anti-Saloon League Of America. \,
Each country win be studied and the
plan of campaign there shaped accord
ing to local conditions, but care will
be taken not to arouse opposition by
the interference of outsiders in the
internal affairs of country. In each
case the campaign will be conducted
through the local temperance organi-
zation each Incorporated as mem
