LAND RECLAIMED
FROM CREEK BEDS
Five Thousand Acres in Gar
vim County Will Have
Value of About $3.50 Per
Acre When Drained.

PAULS VALLEY - The finest body
Of agricultural land in Garvin county
has been reclaimed from the overflow
waters of Ruch creek. Lands adjacent
to Rush creek have been subject to
overflow many times during the crop
season, and have not been put in Gun
tivation. The acreage Of this rich land
reclaimed is 5,069.94 acres from the
western boundary Of Pauls Valley to a
point H. the creek due north of An
tioch. distance of about ten ana one
ha,. mil :. Contract are aSw being lei
Tor the clearing and eruLImg II these
lands ;or cultivation in 1c22. That the
ditch, which is about completed will
guarantee the safety of crops on this
land is shown from the fact that the
fall of the creek is one foot TO the
mile while the fall Of the ditch is five
feet to the mile, that the length Of
the creek between the two points nam
ed is forty miles while the length OF
the ditch Is ten and one half miles.
How much the speed Of the water
will be accelerated is n problem for
the students of hydraulics in the uni
versity.
The work of constructing this ditch
has been done with a dredge working
day and night, and since the ditch is
completed to within a little over one
mile from Pauls Valley, many visitors
are expected to witness the operation.
1t is estimated that none Of thes
reclaimed lands will be worth less than
| tion.

curve approached closest its base
line. With construction at almost
90 per cent below normal, the
country was supplying a little
more than tenth of the buildings
it needed.
Economists are finding that
most business and industrial ac-
tivities move in cycles. From an
examination of records it appears
that normal and sub-normal Pc
riods are followed at regular inter-
walls by "boom" or "peak" years.
The chart shows how true this
claw Of cycles" is of the building
trades. Beginning in 1903 we
note the peaks" in 1906, 1909,
1918, 1916, 1919 and 1922. They
recur regularly at three or four
year intervals. The phenomenal
building activity now sweeping the
country could have been predicted
three years ago.
In future years II is not Ia

Shortage in Residences
and Stores Brings Great
est Boom in Building.

TWO billions Of dollars IS the
. valuation placed by economists
upon the stores and residences
that should have been constructed
to provide for the country's nor
NAL development between 1914
and 1922. Consequently that CO.
lossal figure measures the shortage
we have inherited from the days
when soaring construction costs
made building Improbable, and
when men and materials were be-
ing diverted to war purposes.
The chart shown above, based
on the building permits issued the
last 20 years in score Of the larg-
est cities, indicates how nearly the
country approached complete
building stagnation. In 1918 the

Victim Of Auto
Accident Still
Unidentified Here

Although every possible effort has
been made by local authorities to iden.
tify the young man who was killed in
a rail crossing accident at Berwyn
Thursday afternoon. so far their efforts
have been unsuccessful. Cecil Harvey,
of Harvey brothers. undertakers. stated
Saturday that he would try to communi-
cate with relatives in several places
that have been suggested as possible
former residence of the young man
and try to get information as to his
identity in that way.
A picture was made OF the body Sat.
urday and copies OF it will be sent to
the cities and towns that have been
named in connection with his death.

any great extent. However it may
fuctuate, it must remain in the
area of abnormally high activity.
From 1908 to 1914 it rose and fell
without wandering far from the
normal line. Surpluses balanced
deficits and no appreciable short
age could accumulate. But after
1914 the line was continuously be-
low normal, and the need for new
building became increasingly
acute. Since the country must
make up this tremendous defcien-
cy while it is supplying its cur
rent needs, we must look for at
least five years Of abnormally high
building activity.
The deficit is mainly In
stores and residences. In reliev-
ing the shortage that exists in this
type Of construction alone, work
men who are really skilled in the
building trades will find continuous
and profitable employment for
years to come.
