WATER RESERVOIRS
VALUED FOR FARMS
NoAc Engineer Describes Use
and Economical Method
OF Construction

The drouth of the past few years
has stimulated an interest In build
ing small dams on the farm for
water conservation. according to
Prof. H. F. McColly, agricultural
engineer at the North Dakota Agri-
cultural College. In most cases
these dams are constructed OF earth
II convenient locations where they
will collect run-off water from rain
ard snow. Thus the location may be
a channel which seldom carries water.
Dry runs and small depressions be-
tween hillsides are excellent loca-
tons: A natural depression Is much
preferred over q location where en-
bankments must be thrown up to
hold the water.
There arr q number Of precautions
to be taken In the manner Of con-
structing earth dams. McColly points
out. The soil composition must be Of
a type that will resist seepage and
the dissolving tendency of the water.
"A mixture Of clay, sand and fine
gravel makes the best type Of soil
mixture. In addition the soil must
contain enough moisture when placed
sc that 1t will pack into . dense
mass.
The entertainments Of the dam must
be sloped. A rise of one foot verti.
cally to two or three feet horizont-
ally gives good results on the water
side while the front slope, which
does not have water against 1t, may
have . rise Of one foot vertically to
two feet or less Of horizontal direc-
ton. The faces Of the dam must be
protected against the action Of the
stored waite. and the weather. II the
dam Is large enough 50 the roots will
not penetrate through It. . growth Of
willows and brush can be encouraged.
A good dense sod on the open side Of
the dam will prevent damage by
rains and weather. Rip-rapping
with coarse rock should be used
where vegetation will not thrive.
Board fences. mats or poles may be
used.
The location of the spillway Is
very important. The dam may be
greatly damaged II not entirely
washed out by the improper provi-
sion Of . spillway. II possible, the
spillway should be located away from
the dam itself, and must be larger
than the stream channel to care for
flood waters. A durable lining OF
rock or concrete should Be provided
in the spillway and It should be ex-
tended far enough downstream "a
prevent channelling back underneath
the dam.
The construction Of earth dams
involves considerable labor. II the
dam Is not properly constructed and
protected, the entire investment OF
labor and money may be swept away
with the first heavy rain.
More complete information on
small farm dams for reservoir use
rlay be obtained from Farmers Bull

be obtained by writing the Extension

the storage Of water affects other

Growth of German
Paganism Predicted

Berlin, Nov. l.-R)-Unrestrained
growth Of German paganism and
further anti-semitic acts were con-
sidered possible Thursday as sequels
Of Chancellor Htler's decision to
separate the church and the state.
Persons close to members Of the
Confessional Synod (Opposittonists or
Opponents Of Reichbishop Ludwig
Mueller) expressed this belief. There
were rumors Mueller had resigned,
now that he no longer has Hitler's
backing.

Repeal? Yes. A thousand times,
yes. We already have repeal. But
we do not get any tax from It. What
we have now, is what you would call
the bootlegger's repeal" II the law
was enforced most Of the beer saloons
would have been padlocked . long
time ago. But the authorities are not
interested in enforcing the law. The
beer commissioner told me. what's
the use. The courts won't convict
theln," SO there you are. Why not
vote for repeal 1000 and then we will
have enforcement. And look at the
money the state will be getting In tax.
Just as well as to have It this way.
As 1t is now, we are getting nothing.
Yours for repeal and law enforce

Editor, Tribune:
Money revenue--the hope Of money
was q large factor that brought
about the repeal Of the 18th amend
ment. Money superseded all else in
the eyes Of many. So first and fore
most let us consider the money side
ct this matter which Is soon to be de-
cided by the voters Of North Dakota.
Now what business man would feel
he had put through q good paying
deal II he invested 81 500 ,000, 600 in or
der to MAKE 1926. 900, 900? How many
voters of North Dakota would intrust
him with money for investment? Yet
that Is exactly what we, as q nation,
did when we opened the doors to get
revenue from the sale of intoxicating
liquors and that Is only small part
Of the expense. as we are learning
right along. II that amount was
turned into ordinary business cham
nels wouldn't it help some?

Gently wrote quite extensively on re-

Herald can never be classed as q dry

starts out with these headlines.
"Bootleggers grow fat pardon me.
but isn't that just what the drys said
would happen?) under repeal. More
stills seized than during the dry era
Of the nation" Then he goes on to
say: Instead Of becoming extinct
under repeal, the bootlegger Is flour
ishing under 1t. In June 1894, seven
months after repeal, more stills were
confiscated than in June 1888, seven
months before repeal. In June 1884,
Is stills were confiscated having .
capacity Of 10000 gallons daily, and
1t is admitted that for every stu
seized there are score Of others. In
New England alone these II stills
could distil 3,9S6.O0O gallons q year.
Besides this, the Speakeasy Is with us
still. In prohibition days the boot
logger sneaked up to your door. fur

to your hall uneasily shifting from

this.

Solution to PreUiOuS Contract

Secretary American Bridge League
7 WANT to clear up the king and
L queen showing of the Sims
three-bid today. While it is true,
you may not hold many three bids
when you DO have one, you do not
want to miss obtaining the maxi
mum results.
The Sims three-bid should be
made when the hand contains not
more than three losers with a
major suit as trump, or two losers
with a minor suit as trump. The
first suit named is the suit at which
the final contract must be played
In today's hand. South opens
with three spades. The partner
should respond. first. when hold
ing the ace of trump, with four
spades. Not holding that ace. but
holding any other aces, he should
bid his highest ace first. But when
not holding a single ace, as in TO-
days hand. his proper response is
three no trump.
NTOW. when South bids four
~ clubs. he is asking his partner
if he holds the king OF clubs. Hold
ing the king of clubs, North's proper
response is five clubs. SouthS bid
of five diamonds is asking for the
king of diamonds. Without it.
North simply bids five spades.
Suppose South's holding had been
the ace. king. and jack of diamonds.

gold medal III Paris for OutStand-

cosmetic tax law was passed several
years ago, her eye preparations were

number Of basic remedies. One is
an eye bath, to cleanse and
strengthen the eyes. Another is an
eye cream, intended to remedy lines
and wrinkles about the eyes. An
other is an eye astringent, to firm
the loose skin around the eyes and
tone the muscles.
Muscles Kept Active
This is considered very impor-
tant in the treatment of the eyes"
Miss Purgason explains. Eye spe-
cialiSts say that it is necessary to
keep the muscles around the eyes
active, so the sight is not impaired"
Miss PurgasOn tells an interest,"
ing story of an experience which
happened to her during a recent
weeks demonstration in Washing
ton.
A woman came into the toilet
goods department carrying a ply
sician's prescription in her hand"
she says. I explained to her that
we did not fill prescriptions, since
we had no registered pharmacist in
the department.
But you can fill this part, the
customer insisted. When I looked
at the prescription I saw the spe-
cialist had written, One Kathleen
Mary Quinlan eye kit The Gus
toner explained that the physician
wanted the skin around her eyes
toned up, to improve her sight"
Miss PurgasOn quotes Kathleen
Mary Quinlan as saying eyes are
the picture, and the rest of the face
is just the frame"
she believes that no beauty can
be acquired without proper atten-
ton to the eyes"
Recommends Color Scheme
Aside from the care Of the eyes,
Miss PurgaSOn came to Indianap-
oils with a story of color. "Colors
vibrate to your personality" she
says
She makes an analysis Of the
skin, and prescribes the colors in
cosmetics which will be most effec-
tive The process is called color
reading and has been worked out
in the New York salon of Kathleen
Mary Quinlan. There are no set
rules for blends or brunets. Vibra-
tory tones, according to this expert,
are those most complimentary to
the skin tones. Following the anal
ysis, squares Of ChihOns Of the pri-
mary colors and their derivates
are shown, and Miss Purgason has
found that the one most agreeable
to the subject usually is the color
which has long been her favorite.
