the price of admission. It is always
5 cents,1 for any one at any time; and
consequently the biggest show forthe

course, among the best , to be found

(4.) Plain language cablegrams at

TOO MUCH WAT Eft i:
IS AS BAD AS NONE.
Chicago, Dec. 7. "Too much, water
is as much a blight to land as none
at all" was the pith, of addresses given
before the 19th annual session of the
National Irrigation Gongress yester
day by delegates who are interested
in reclamation of swamp lands. '
That the overflow - lands, located
chiefly, in the Southern and in some of
the Pacific coast States should be
; -. - - 5
drained and made habitable and; that
the-river courses should be, regulated
has, according to . B. A. bowler, the
president, become as much a part of
the propaganda of the Congress as the
irrigation, problem. ' , ' 'h. "',
' - "Drainage as a basis for national de
velopment" was discussed by W. L.
Park, vice president of the Illinois Cen
tral railroad and other i speakers in
