The reg- ular budget for the educational de- partment, as introduced by Senator P. A. Gandrud, was set at $2,442,900 for 1916 and $2,668,450 for 1917. The amount to be expended in the maintenance of normal schools for 1916 and 1917 was set at $758,110 in a bill by Senator F. H. Peterson. Funds for Drainage. As far as can be seen at present, Representative Bessette has made a valuable find in his drainage fund proposal. He has introduced a bill at St. Paul providing for the estab- lishment of a revolving fund for the draining of state lands. Under this plan there would be no more appeals for appropriations by the legislature, and the state would be able each year to add to its reclaimed acreage. In few states is there better oppor- tunity for reclamation by drainage than in Minnesota, yet it is always difficult to get money appropriated for that purpose, remarks the Du- luth Herald. Still, some funds for this purpose have been secured in the past, and certain areas have been reclaimed. Included in the 185,000 acres of state land to be offered for sale this year are about 75,000 acres that have been drained by the use of direct ap- propriations. State records place the cost of drainage at two dollars an acre, on the average, and land thus reclaimed has been sold in this state for as high as nine dollars an acre. Under Representative Bessette’s plan, a sum equal to the cost of drain- ing the land would be set aside from the sale receipts from all such land. and would constitute a fund for ad- ditional drainage work. Thus, with the average cost of drainage at two dollars an acre the sale this year of 75,000 acres of drained land would mean -that next year the state would have approximately a hundred and fitty thousand dollars to use for drain- age purposes, without having to pro- vide a cent by appropriation, and still would have a good revenue from the sale of land. The Bessette plan looks good. At least it has enough merit on the face of it to make it worth thorough study before being laid aside. It may be the means of solving an important problem for Minnesota.

"Towns contemplating public im- provement in the way of street pav- ing, water works, electric plants and sewer: systems may write in to the Municipal Reference- Bureau for ad- vice as to how to plan the work. When the work is definitely planned and de: Towns in touch with a reputable firm of engineers who will supervise the construction work. Much poor and shoddy work has been done in Minnesota towns be:{-- cause officials have been unwilling to employ experts. But there is need of expert advise from the very in- ception of the plan. Blunders made at the start through poor planning are often perpetuated for a genera- tion. In public works more than in any other business the motto should be: ‘“Be sure you are right and then go ahead.” Ordinarily cities "and towns do not plan these works with foresight. They plan for the pres- ent only and do not foresee the the growth of the town and make advance provisions accordingly. A water works system or a sewer sys- tem should always be planned with a definite view to the use of the gen- eration to come. The only reason why city officials hesitate to employ expert engineer- ‘ng talent is that they are afraid of having to pay a high fee and because certain towns have been imposed up- on by charlatans in the guise of en- gineers. The purpose of the new bu- reau of engineering co-operation is to help officials to avoid both of these errors. A list of accredited engin- eers will be prepared, and these en- gineers have signified their willing- ness to accept a certain reasonable |- fee. None but reputable firms who do thorough-going and conscientious work can obtain a place on the list. Inquiries on this subject should be addressed to the Municipal Reference Bureau, University of Minnesota. AMERICA ALONE CAN GIVE HELP TO BELGIUM | “The civil army we have to feed is|. greater than the British and French |* armies combined. Yet we can scrape through on about $6,250,000 worth of food a month.” Thus speaks Emil Franqm a prom- inent Belgian banker and member of the Commission for Relief in Bel- gium, No. 71 Broadway, New York, which has been designated by the powers at war as the sole clearing house for all Belgian relief. “It is not generally’ realized,” Franqui_said, “that there still are| 7,000,000 persons in Belgium who were virtually entirely dependent for food on the American Relief commis- sion.
