AXEL STENQUIST,
Wilton, N. D.
Editor of The Tribune:
My object in writing this article
is to show that the action of the
silt in the upper Missouri river nc
cessitates the control Of the flow by
means of a suitable storage dam. The
facts and deductions herein presented
are gathered from my studies as hy-
drographer. l hope that a perusal of
them will warrant further investiga-
ton by the proper authorities.
The terms used herein r defined
as follows:
River valley is the low land from
base of bluff to base of bluff.
Channel is that part of the valley
used by the river, divided into two
classes: First, the flood channel: sec
ond, the normal or low water chan
mel.
Bed is the bottom of the stream.
Banks are the natural banks on
either side of the stream whether SUBJ
merged at extreme high stages or not.
Silt is the fine particles of solid
matter in suspension in the water, and
is divided into two classes: First, that
which settles out in a 10 minute peri
cd and consists of fine particles Of
sand or fine particles of sand COW
cred with clay; second, that which
remains in suspension after a period
Of 10 minutes. consisting mostly OF
fine clay.
Daily records of the silt are taken
at the Bismarck station from May to
January inclusive. In the three-year
period 1926-1928 inclusive, I find the
average total to be O.3O29 per cent.
while the average class m is 0.l009
per cent. This, of course, does not
include that which is pushed or rolled
back along the bed. Much has been
written, but no real data is available,

c. r, Stone, former manager of the

would not help the silt condition. Why
keep pushing more silt into the lower
river when It can BE- stopped here?
On the other hand, take the river
controlled. by 4 dam in the upper
part. There would be no great vAri-
alton In volume, thus eliminating the
use Of channel number one. As shown.
the turbidity curve, disregarding the
removal of silt by the reservoir, would
be cut in two. The only place addi-
tional silt would be picked up under
this plan would be from the inflow
ing streams. For these reasons I
believe the construction Of 4 reservoir
would solve the silt question, ana
at the same time save money on
work on the lower river.
The question might arise In the
minds Of some people as to the de-
post Of silt in the reservoir. The silt
will deposit In the upper reaches Of
the reservoir, and from the known
silt records 1t would take fifty years
to injure the dam in any way for
the control OF the river. Sitting works
could be built above the reservoir to
take care Of most Of this silt.
In other words. the silt carried into
the lower river has been picked up
Immediately following a flood stage,
when the river has to cut q new chan
mel, and at the same time cuts away
land from the river valley. From the
facts it would appear that a study of
the proposed reservoir would be war

Owe to the United States treasury.
He has authority to establish local
points of distribution as for instance,
in cities of 5000 or more or in each
county seat. The larger cities should
have one or more according to popu-
lation.
The congress is to set aside or en-
act by Law a special fund for its
manufacture and storage, a revolving
fund of $500, 600, 900. After five years
all money SO received should be re-
paid to the treasury.
Congress is to fix the amount of
tax on all liquor sold. First, all the
cost of manufacture and distribution
paid from the profits, and all surplus
must be turned over to the United
States treasury. The first 10 per cent

In the bed OF the river, SO I will leave
this out of the discussion.
We are now ready to take up the
action of the river during q normal

This water comes from the melting Of

Is now class number one. In some
very high floods the water will over
flow the banks, but this does not al
ter the point in question. The river
is now at its maximum velocity, due
to the added dapth, but as Professor
Simpson has stated. the river Is fair
ly straight, thus causing very. little
erosion from the banks on sharp
curves. For this reason, It has little
or no chance to pick up more silt
than 1t nov carries. The silt con-
tent is now very high and one might
naturally believe that 1t has reached
its peak, but this Is not the casc.
The bed of the stream now is In
waves perpendicular to the flow, and
moving along with the current much

ton is best shown by plotting the
cross sections of permanently marked
gauging stations. Now one can cast
ly see that channel number two Is
completely obliterated. There is also
a building up at this time Of bars
In the river crossings. due to the
added velocity around curves and be-
cause the heavier sand is deposited
on the next straight reach.
After the June rise recedes, the
turbidity curve keeps moving up. Why
is this? As before shown. channel
number two has been wiped out, the
bed is covered with waves of sand
| perpendicular to the flow. This re-
| duced volume of water must now seek
a new channel within the larger one,
In finding weak places through and
around the waves Of silt, 1t winds from

The action now going on lasts a
