PUT LOCAL MEN
TO WORK AT LAKE
SAYS RASMUSSEN
By Hans Rasmussen

There is a lot of talk about the
Medicine Lake project and many
people are looking forward to it
as a kind of life saver, a place
where a lot of people can be put
to work soon, work for long time
and make good wages. We hope
these people are not going to be
disappointed.
From the information we have.
the idea is to raise the level of
the lake ten or twelve feet. This
is to be done by building a dam
along the east side of the high
way and lead the water from the
Big Muddy into the lake thru a
canal, tapping the Muddy river
some place near Reserve. By rails
ing the water in the lake several
thousand acres of fairly good graz
ing land east of the lake along
Lake creek, Cottonwood and Sand
Creek, will be flooded, making the
lake much larger than at present
if the amount of water from the
Muddy and other rivers will be
able to do the trick. Trees are to
be planted along the lake where
fish and fowl will be living happily
and unmolested.
! This undertaking is supposed tC
cost half a million dollars.
Whether the project is worth
that much money we shall not dis
cuss at this time. A lot of wonl
with good pay is what we are in
terested in right now. It's needed
now more than ever and this pro
ject can help a lot towards reliev
ing the present situation if it i
handled right. Local men shoult
be put in charge and local men
move the dirt and horses and ma
chinery of this county should b
put to work.
But, if some slave-driving con
tractor is imported from Ten
nessee or some other place bring
ing with him big steam shovell
and hiring only a few men at
starvation wages, as has bee
done on other propects. our pee
: pie will be looking upon this hal
million dollar project as Just ar
