PLANNING OF GARDEN CITIES| Workingmen's Homes That Ara |2 Economical and Sanitary. SIMPLE AND ATTRACTIVE. | These Have Met With Great Success In England, While Also the Idea Has Been Taken Up In Germany and Elsewhere—Rents Are Low and Own- erships Encouraged. [By Frank Koester, consulting engineer, New York; author of “Modern City Planning and Maintenance.”] The garden city in its best form is a well organized development, in which from 100 to 500 homes make up a unit, which is intended to grow little if any larger. When additional demand springs up ‘for quarters a new garden city is formed elsewhere, and thus the identity of the existing one is preserv- ied indefinitely, and the residents, in the expectation of spending their lives in their own homes, have every incentive to embellish them and keep their grounds in the best possible condition. The garden city in plan should be laid out in the simplest, yet most at- tractive manner. There being no traf- fic of any consequence the streets should be planned with the degree of frregularity which insures charm. Some of the streets should be winding, while- the straight ones should have suitable {erminals. Each house should be provided with a spacious garden, as it is from the gardens that such MAIN STREET OF A GARDEN CITY. citles take their name. Such gardens, though partially devoted to vegetable raising, ‘should also be well laid out with flower beds, and the whole gar- den city should be subject to such reg- ulations as will insure sufficient atten- tion being given to the gardens to pro- duce the intended appearance. Grass g [plots, trees, hedges, shrubbery and ar- bors should be in abundance both in f | the front and in the rear of the houses. i | The neglect of the residents should not be allowed to mar the appearance of the city. The houses may be quite simple and compact in design, but they should all be individual in character and by no means the frightful rows of boxes, all g |exactly alike, which are put up for fi | workmen’s houses in most rural or suburban places devoted to such pur- poses. The economical design of the build- ings and the small expenses for streets B (make the housing cost small, so that the rent may be low or the workman may in a reasonable length of time g |become the owner of his own home. Garden cities should be laid out with- {|in easy reach of transit facilities, and % |natural advantages of site should be seized whenever possible to give indi- viduality and charm to the plan, The sanitary provisions of the gar- §|den citles should be carefully carried out, and the details should be simple, but solid in construction and as inex- pensive as possible. A garden city is principally a place of residence, and it should have as few stores as possible, only those of the most necessary character being provided. A school may be the only building of a public character. In garden cities, however, which are larger and located in a more or less isolated position the suburban charac- ter is lost, and they become small cities and should be accordingly pro- vided with a great number and vari- ety of stores and public buildings. The city may have its own civic or- ganization, with schools, a library; churches, museum, theaters and the like, and be a complete civic unit. Garden cities have metl with greater success in England than anywhere else as yet, although a greater number and variety of them are now in process of formation in Germany. The principal English garden cities are Port Sunlight, near Liverpool; Bourneville, near Birmingham. and Letchworth, near London, while the leading German garden city is Helle- rau, near Dresden. The numerous workingmen's colonies in Germany, which first began to be founded about 1863, are earlier prototypes of the present garden cities, but on a less comprehensive scale and ‘with less open ground. ‘Winona, Minn.—Father L.

BOWSFIELD Modern dailry owners having over- come by means of silage the disastrous effects -of summer drought it is now worth while for all farmers to take up the question of irrigation. This country is fast reaching the level of $200 land, and every agincy that can aid in making the higher priced farms pay must receive atten. tion. . Irrigation is not commonly un- derstood by farmers living east of the Rocky mountains, and they have look- ed upon its marvelous results as some- thing belonging exclusively to the fron- tier. The fact is, however, a regulated water supply is needed on every farm, and in the absence of a public system of irrigation individual or co-operative action is called for. There is no surer method of making a farm pay than to irrigate it. The Budlong place of 700 acres in Cook county, Ill, is both watered and drain- ed by means of the drainage canal, and the system pays well in the enor- mous crops of vegetables which are regularly produced. Water from the drainage canal is pumped into ditches whieh border the big farm. When these ditches are full the - water flows through ordinary AN IRRIGATED SMALL FARM. drainage tile to all parts of the prop- erty, and crops are thus supplied with moisture through the roots instead of from the surface. To drain the farm after a heavy rain or when enough wa- ter has been supplied it is only neces- sary to open gates and allow the ditch- es to empty into the canal. g In thousands of cases farmers who have ponds or streams can have a cheap and effective irrigation system on the Budlong plan. Others can build small reservoirs or dams on the highest part of their farms and irri- gate either by surface ditches or through tiling. The expense will range from $1,000 to $3,000 on ordi- nary farms for constructing a suitable reservoir. Draintiles are needed, any- way, and this item of expense'is not to be charged entirely to irrigation. Where a pond or other body of water is so situated that a stream can be run to the highest point in a field irri- gation becomes a simple matter, or if water can be pumped into ditches or turrows the proposition is easily and cheaply handled.- Light furrows about eight or ten feet apart will serve to carry the water through the fields and down the slopes. This plan requires that the furrows be kept full until the ground is thoroughly soaked. In a pe- riod of drought this operation is to be repeated from time to time. In all surface irrigation it is important that the soil be well .cultivated as soon as the water has been absorbed to pre- vent the formation of destructive crusts. Kansas has installed the first irriga- tion plant owned by that state under a law passed by the last legislature ap- propriating $125,000 for experimental irrigation work. The plant consists of six modern windmills furnishing pow- er and six four-inch cylinders. which lift the water into a reservoir 100 by 150 feet and six feet deep, made of dirt. In making a reserveir the top soil is removed and the sides banked with dirt from adjoining land. After dragging and puddling the reservoir is found to hold water. After the reser- voir has been filled the floodgate is opened and the water carried over the fields, It is feasible to construct smaller reservoirs at high points on a farm, Generally it will pay to construct a concrete bottom. Ditches or furrows leading from this irrigate the crops in the simplest and cheapest manner known to man. The matter of keep- ing the reservoir supplied is one that each farmer can study out to suit his own circumstances. In some cases a windmill will serve the purpose, or a small engine can be used for pumping the water. These are cheap methods, but they are practicable and enable the landowner to regulate the mois- ture which his crops require. There is no doubt but that a simple form of irrigation will pay any farm- er. Crops are doubled in extent and improved in quality by a regular water supply, which is best worked in con- nection with a drainage system.

STATE TO SELL TWENTY MILLION FEET OF TIMBER St. Paul, Minn,, Sept. 10:-—Timber on state lands estimated at 20,000,000 feet will be offered at public sale at the state capitol Oct. 15. Appraisals by state cruisers have been approved by the state timber board and the timber will be advertised. State For- ester W. T. Cox asked that it be made a condition of the sale that only timber of a certain size be cut. This was left to be decided in conferences between State Auditor J. A. O. Preus and Mr. Cox, and if such conditions are made they will be announced at the time of the sale. The timber in- cludes pine, spruce, white ’cedar, tamarack, balsam and jackpine. | SHOOT 4 DUCKS AND'1 CHICKEN W. L. Brooks and County Attor- ney G. M.
