Continued rain: for three days following the deluge prevented our party'from going over the country thoroughly. ‘What we did see,-how- evVér;- was sufficient to make us realize that the newspaper’ accounts of’ the) stotm were in no way exaggetated and we wefe convinced that the highway and bridge dathage alone will amount to many thousands of dollars.” ‘In at least two places on the 'Whité. wood-Spearfish road the state bridge engineer declared, slides have’ occur- red which have completely blocked the road. Tons of earth and rock mus? be removed and the cuts resloped be- for this highway will be in first ‘class shape again. s The damage to the roads from wash- outs was not 80 much the direct re- sult of the rain, Mr. Kirkham said, but ‘wag caused by the culverts becoming clogged with snow and trash which forced thé water over the roads. ‘As soon as an estimate of the dam- age can be obtained work will be com- menced to construct new bridges and culyerts where they are necessary.

In the fall he followed the ot which he has about 1v0 acres, Luring the recent heavy rains the twenty acres of reservoir formed dy tho dam was filled to overflowin; and, then the overflow was turned out over the fislds with the result that every acre Was soaked to the limit. ‘this entire bench of Mr. Buckleys can be irrigated at any time, There is water enough in the reservoir to over- flow the spillway, but the main fea- ture of the undertaking is that he has an excellent twenty acre | reservoir with six feet or more of water, from which he can pump at least 160 acre feet of water, onough to irrigate his farm land in the dryest of seasons.
