SHOULD USE RIVER
Missouri Offers Possibilities in
Transportation.
Could Be Great Artery of Com
meree, Engineer Says.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 24.-What
might be a great artery of commerce,
co-ordinated with the transportation
system of the country. is going to
waste for lack of development, and
instead Of being benefit to the Mis-
souri, valley, is an actual menace
part of the year. This unused utility
is the Missouri river and the author
ity for the statement as to its posi-
biiities is Maj G. ". wilkes, engineer
ing corps. United States army. Major
Wilkes, who recently has been re-
gineer in order to attend the school
of the staff at Fort Leavenworth,
Kan, is much interested in the pos
sibilities of the Missouri river.
the major, is consistent and intel
lIgent expenditure of appropriations
to pay rich dividends, both in trans
portation and land.
Proper development OF the river,
under such a plan as was worked out
by the war department in 1912" Major
Wilkes said, land which would have
been completed this year, had the
work been able to proceed, would
have made a navigable stream of the
Missouri from Kansas City to the
mouth; would have made possible the
transportation of thousands of tons
of grain, coal and other commodities,
and would have resulted in the recla-
nduon OF thousands OF acres Oh Lue
richest bottoms farm land in the
world"
The development scheme was never
completed, however, and today the
Missouri river, full of snags, sand bars
and eddies is virtually without naviga-
ton of any kind, according to the
major. As the appropriations avail
able are very small, Major wilkes ex-
planned. il also has been impossible to
prevent the river from cutting its own
banks in places and destroying farm
land.

Had Bought Sow He Wanted.

Wichita, Kan, Aug. 24.-when E.
G. Hoover returned from a Duroc
hog sale in Iowa the other day he
was surprised to be shown a certain
sow by Mrs. Hoover. He distinctly
recognized the animal as one he had
bid on several times at the sale but
which had gone to some one else.
Mrs. Hoover explained to her hus-
band that she had written to the auc-
tioneer. without Mr.. Hoover's knowl-
edge, asking him to obtain her an
animal of certain strain.
Mr.. Hoover laughed heartily when
he realized he had unconsciously been
bidding against his own wife.
