ley, perhaps so, may ! ask II the
American Falls dam is going to be
placed on top of the ground?
In talking with engineers / find
that 1t is usual for dams to have a
depth below the surface almost the
same as their heighth above the sur
face, but what ! want to know is,
who made the test holes at Swan
Valley, as l have made inquiries and
have been unable to find anyone
there who ever saw any drills set up
at the proposed dam site, any way IT
the dam did allow some seepage so
will the American Falls dam, and
what seeps below American Falls
will be to the lower counties bene-
fits and not ours.
A few years ago, we were warned
by everyone, writer and farmer, in
this upper valley to beware of Twin
Falls schemes to place in jeopardy
u water rights, and now we pro-
pose to deliver our entire system of
irrigation over to them for their
management, and I am sure that If
the people will await until the en-
giners employed by the farmers to
check up on the management of
measuring and distributing our
stored and natural flow waters, they
will want to keep just as far away
from U. s. reclamation control as
possible.
In conclusion, If we want or need
more water for our present lands, let
US cooperate with our immediate
neighbors, and construct our reser-
voirs and then manage them our
selves, and not have anything to do

with Twin Falls or the reclamation
people, IL we can help It, as Mr..
Flenner in his answer to Mr..
Tomchak says, that the government
has approved this American Falls
project lets let the government build
1t, as F1enner states that II there is
any water left after 1t Is constructed
then they will be glad to assist the
Dubois Project.

AND ICE:
Cream FACTORY
Harry E. Forester, of State
Food and Dairy De-
partment, Coming
!! to City.
MAKE IN QUANTITIES
To Establish Big Butter
and Ice Cream Plant
Here.

| Harry Z. Forester. of GladbrOoli,
row connected with the Iowa sta tie food
and dairy department, has organized a
, company to be known as the Webster
City Cream Company for the manu-
facture Of butter and ice cream in this
city. The company will be located in
the Sketchley building on Seneca street
and will wholesale and retail butter
and ice cream. It's principal trade, how
ever. will be the wholesale business.
The Webster City Cream company
expects to be in operation in about
five weeks Meantime the most modern
OF machinery VIII be installed and cv-
erything put in readiness to make a
Thoroughly modern and sanitary plant.
II. w. Glenn, OF the Western Pedigree
Company of this city, was instrumental
in getting Mr. Forester to locate his
Plant in Webster City. Mr.. Glenn had
lit in mind to give the farmers more
stable market for their butter fat,
W me MI. FoTItSttT t.tlIc NIllSiiS wv
cause he feels that there is 4 field here
for that Kind of factory. Some
$4,000 gallons of ice cream are shipped
from outside points to Webster City
annually. Mr.. FORESTER believes he
will merit all this trade and be able,
as well, to do Il big wholesale business
out of here. He believes there is real
opportunity to start Il big and growing
plant here. He plans to move here
with his family and make this city his
permanent home.
His son, Il graduate of Ames. who
is now the manager Of an ice cream
factory ut Iowa City. will join his
father here and will be foreman of the
local plant. Mr.. Forester will be the
active manager md give his whole time
TO the operation of the plant.
Webster City will welcome the For
roster family here in the firm belief
that the new cream company will be
an asset to the city and will prove a
paying venture for those who are eS-
tabliShing it.

A Congressional View.

Jewell Record: Tuesdays Des MOincs
Register reported that +. J. Llmd, of
Webster City, has asked for nomina-
ton papers for the Office of congress-
man from the tenth district. In the
Judgment of the Record. Mr.. Lund is
one Of the finest fellows in the world
hut we do not believe that he has one
CHANGE in the world of defeating the
present incumbent, Congressman Dick
irsOn. Lund is not as able a man nor
as well Qualified for the place as is
Dickinson; he does not enjoy as large
an acquaintance over the district as
does Dickinson. And, in the opinion
Of the Record, he could not defeat Dick
ius0n even if he were rs able and as
we'll OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES could any
body else. Dickinson has been in con-
gress only two terms and has grown
tc "a commandingly important position
there. He is fast becoming one of the
real leaders of the lower house ami
Iowa would be making Il big sacrifice
were the district now to Dust him just
ut the time when he is becOlssing most
valuable and now has ahead Of him
many years of good service to the dis
trict and to the state and nation. And
Dickinson is, and always has been, alb
sOlutely right on legislative matters.
He has supported prohibition legiSla-
ton, he has supported Loyalty all sol
der legislation, he has given valla-
bic support and leadership in legiSla-
ton in behalf of the farming interests.
IN the lower house he has occupied the
same position that Kenyon held in the
senate in respect to agricultural lcgis-
lutiOn, being one of the active heads OF
the agricultural bloc in the house. The
tenth Iowa district would be making
the political mistake of its life were
il now TO Dust Mr.. Dickinson in favor
OF any other man whatsoever.

A Lesson in POliteness.

Jewell Record: When the newspaper
reporter civilly and in the proper con-
duct of his business, approaches citi-
zen about to take train out of town
and inquiries as to his destination, and
that citizen replies, "nOne of your bust
ness" he is not hurting the feelings
of the reporter particle, neither is
he hurting the paper. He is merely
displaying his own i'll breeding and his
lack of manners. civil question al
ways merits civil reply-and always
gets a civil reply from ladies and gem
tlemen. If for some reason one does
not care to have mention of himself
made in the paper, it is merely neces-
sary to say so, civilly and such men,
tion will always be omitted.

Funds Available.

"The program of Improvement for the
primary road system consists largely
of grading. draining, bridging and gray
cl surfacing work. Practically all of
the expenditures incidental to the car
rying out Of this program will be paid
from the primary road fumd-a fund
made available by state and national
legislation. which no state or county
officials have power to diminish or in
crease. Funds are available for the
program as outlined. and can be spent
for no other purposes. Prices on grad
ing. draining and gravel surfacing are
down to pre-wAr basis, and on bridge
work and paving work are as low as
existing material and transportation
costs will permit. The State Highway
commission, therefore. feels that the
welfare of the state will be best served
by going ahead with cOnservati tive
road improvement program as herein
outlined. using funds that have been
made available and which can be used
for on other purpose. and providing

POLICY ON ROAD
WORK FOR 1922
state Highway Commission
Senses Feeling of Pub
lie Against More
Taxes.
MAPS OUT PROGRAM
Favors Draining and Gravel
ing With Funds now on
Hand.

The current issue Of the Iowa State
Highway Service Bulletin outlines the
general policy of this commission on
road work planned for the year 1922
1t will be Of general interest to the
public to know that the commission OPP
poses further taxation and that it
fayors the grading and draining Of
roads this season with funds now on
hand which can be expended fo1. no
other purpose The commission sets
forth its policy as follows:
Not for many years have the people
of Iowa been so critical of expenditures
involving public funds as is the case
today. There is Il universal feeling
that tax levying and tax spending pub
lie officials must do everything within
their power to curtail expenditures and
reduce taxes to level more nearly
proportional to the wealth producing
ability of the taxpayers. Any public
officials who have not ScIlsed this situ-
alton, or having Sensed it, are indiffer-
ent or unmindful of it. are unworthy
of the public trust that has been COM
mitted to them.
Program Conservative.
''The State Highway commission is
not unmindful Of, nor Indifferent to
this feeling on the part of the public,
and is wholly in sympathy Herewith.
Consequently conservative program
of road Improvement work is recon-
mended for 1929. Township and coun-
ty officials responsible for the levying
and expenditure of road and bridge
funds raised by direct taxation. are
urged to keep their expenditures from
such funds Within the limit Of funds
available. and where possible, to so
plan future construction programs that
the present rate of taxation for road
and bridge work may be reduced. This
is not the time to increase eXprndi-
lures that must he paid from direct
taxation, but rather to decrease such
expenditures and to strive to secure
the maximum amount of road improvc-
ment for the expenditures that are
made
