to back up these surveys. The fed
eral engineers will heartily back
Leonard and me in our position. Sur
veys to this end will only be toler-
ated by those in authority who are
unacquainted with the facts.
Lastly, much. Of the CRITICAL
area involved in the proposed plan
HAS ALREADY BEEN SURVEYED
by the state in previous surveys!
Does the state want to pay for it
again, giving engineers a job, which
they may not know is already done
A part of the surveys were made
by a state engineer years ago. These
surveys were checked up by the writer
four years ago, while conducting
surveys for the state looking to
flood control, and other areas ad-
jacent were surveyed for another
PROJECT. At that time it was fully
determined that the then side issues
of diverting the Mouse and Missouri
into Devils Lake, while interesting
stunts, held no practical use to
interest business men, or laiMs...
The benefits to be obtained were so
small and uncertain as compared
with the millions of dollars cost,
as to make the whole look very alb
surd.
The writer is vigorously interest
ed in any truly feasible plans for
irrigation, flood control, etc, and ad-
mits that the state has strong pos
sibilities in other areas, but by no
stretch of the Imagination can the
diversion surveys be justified in
terms of values receivable; further
much of the essential work has al
ready been afforded from other sur
veys-all that is necessary to dis
card the scheme. Let the engineers
use the appropriation for useful sur
veys.

New York, June 3-Romance flows
through New York streets at this
time of year. Yet it is romance
mostly for the young and it is ever
tinged with the tragedy of old age
on the outer edge of the scene.

great number of people here who
walk along talking to themselves.

does seem so noisy that one cannot
think.
On the other hand, no place is so

Is that true?"

Yes, and the funny part of it is,
that just when l happened to hear

candles with him. Benson and l fol-
lowed the light. Ruth, it must have

Jack listened at the phone for a
moment, frantically clicking the
hook. Then, throwing the receiver
down, he exclaimed, Damn them,
they've cut these wires, too"

one of the candlesticks from the
table where he had placed them

Jack picked up the other candle

TOO MUCH MEAT CAUSES GOVT

Persons suffering from govt should
not eat meat.
Govt is due to an accumulation of
uric acid in the body. The diet best
adapted for persons suffering from
govt is such as will enable them to
eliminate uric acid from the system.
Since uric acid is one of the re-
suits Of meat-eating, meat, of course,
should be discarded.
Doctor Hindhede, an eminent Scan
dinavian physician, who has given
much attention to the study of diet,
and who has, for many years, advo-

extended experiment with VARIOUS ex-
elusive diets, especially in relation
to uric acid.
He has found that when the diet
consisted of potatoes only, the urine
was but slightly acid, and contained
no uric acid.
He finally discovered that the
urine from a potato diet was capable
Of dissolving from one-half to
dram Of uric acid daily.
This was found to be true also
when strawberries or milk, or both,
were taken with the potatoes. A
diet consisting largely of apples or
tomatoes produced similar results.
