RECOGNITION TALKS WILL BE CONTINUED Announcement of Russo-Ameri- can Understanding Ex. pected Next Week Washington, Nov. 11.—()—Friend- iv, but serious, conversations between * President Roosevelt and Maxim Lit- vufoft Saturday propelled the United States and Soviet Russia toward dl- plomatic kinship. Official sources forecast announce- ment next week of an understanding on Russo-American recognition. Sup- porting this prediction were personal chats between Roosevelt and the Rus- fian commissar adding up to more ‘than four hours, and state depart- ment meetings which swelled the total oiscussions to more than 10 hours. Further conferences were declared 1» be “obvious” by William Bullitt, special assistant to Secretary Hull and an authority on Russian affairs. But just at present no arrangements have been made for these meetings. President Roosevelt's White House study last night was the scene of the Jongest and most intimate exchange between the chief executive and Lit- vinoff. For three hours, lasting until raidnight, Russo-American issues were thoroughly reviewed. Bullitt was the only other official present. Before the conference the president told newsmen there would be nothing to report afterward except progress. Litvinoff, as he left the executive mansion, said “conversations with Mr. Roosevelt ere always pleasant.” The late night meeting was the sec- ond Roosevelt-Litvinoff conversation Friday. At noon they met for an hour with state department officials and then issued a joint statement that discussions “will continue in nor- mal course.” Ford Held Eligible For Government Work ‘Washington, Nov. 11.—(4)—Comp- troller General McCarl ruled Satur- day that Henry Ford is eligible to receive government contracts al- though he has refused to sign the NRA automobile code on behalf of his manufacturing companies. He held that Ford can be listed as ineligible only if it is proven that he is violating the code and that the burden of proof in that case rests with the government. ‘Thus, an affirmative statement of adherence to provisions of the code cannot be required of Ford as a prel- ude to the award of the government contract. The ruling was made in a letter to Secretary Wallace as the outgrowth of controversy over the purchase of 1,000 trucks for the civilian conser- vation corps. Elks Plan Charity Festival Wednesday ‘The first in a series of entertain- ment features planned by the Bis- marck Elks Lodge, proceeds of which will go to charity, will be staged next Wednesday evening, Nov. 15. The Elks will give a “Charity Fes- tival” at the Dome dancing pavilion Wednesday night, with dancing, games, card playing and several other entertainment features planned. Harry Turner's orchestra will pre- sent music for dancing as well as pro- vide other entertaining features. Confetti will be in abundance at the festival, it is promised by the com- mittee in charge. Among other features planned in the charity series are a carnival and minstrel show, local participation in the national bridge tournament and dances at regular intervals. Kidnaver Contact _ Denied by Family San Jose, Calif. Nov. 11.—(?)—Re- ports that kidnapers had made con- tacts with members of the A. J. Hart family demanding payment of $40,000 ransom for release of their son, Brooke Hart, 22, were vehemently denied by all investigators and members of the family Saturday. Discovery of a wallet bearing the name and containing personal cards of Brooke was found on an oil tanker in San Francisco bay. Authorities said the tanker had been docked alongside the liner Lurline, which sailed for Los Angeles at 12:15 p. m. friday. “Los Angeles authorities were re- quested to search the Lurline when \t arrives there on the theory the Wal- jet may have been tossed from the liner, BACK ON BROADWAY New York, Nov. 11—(#)—The body A “Texas Guindn was brought back Saturday to the Broadway she once said she would rather have a foot of than all the rest of the world.

KENNEDY State Engineer As the formation of the Bowman Irrigation District proceeds to comple- tion it is most desirable, in fact, high- ly essential, that we look frankly and critically at the limitations and draw- backs of irrigation as well as its ad- vantages. In the first place it is not at all likely that Uncle Sam, even in his most paternal mood, is going to turn Santa Claus and hand out a Christ- mas present of a few thousand dollars to each of the 60 or more land owners within the proposed district withou! them doing anything about it. Th: would be opening the “pork barrel” at both ends, Colonization A Serious Problem The land owners themselves have a large job on their hands. They must assume the very serious responsibility and liability of colonization. The Present resident population consists of perhaps a dozen families. The net ir- rigable area, within the proposed dis- trict is about 6,000 acres. The project management must show where suit- able settlers are to be found, how the few large holdings can be subdivided into irrigable tracts of 100 to 160 acres’ each and made available under such reasonable terms as to attract settlers, and above all how land speculation is going to be prevented. The present promoters of the project believe they can meet these conditions if given a reasonable length of time, Project favors them. They propose to recruit many settlers from the adja- cent dry farming region. A number of Progressive stockmen have expressed @ desire to get a piece of project land for insurance against shortage of win- ter feed provided the price is right. This type of settler should be very val- uable to the project because he has demonstrated that he understands Dakota conditions and crops and their limitations. Some of them now live near enough to operate a piece of ir- tigated land in connection with their Present farming activities. This is done in some places on the edge of the Belle Fourche project. The long and narrow shape of the Bowman Project is especially fitted for this. Irrigation Must Compete With Dry- Farming Located as we are in the twilight zone of rainfall, irrigation in these re- gions must always compete with dry- farming. The lower Yellowstone ject, which crosses the Montana-Da- ota boundary, has collected statistics from those settlers who have refused to use irrigation water and have dry- farmed under the ditch. The compar- ison of their crop returns with those of irrigated crops is interesting.

The big snow winter occurred in 1896-97, which followed the drought of 1893 or 1894. That is only a seven- year span. In 1883 big floods occurred on all our rivers. In 1870 a small steamboat actually paddled its way up the James river from Aberdeen to Jamestown. It is just a row of in- termittent puddles riow. Looking ahead into the future, 11 or 12 years from 1927 is 1938 or 1939. But no one knows whether or not a coincidence as exact as that will con- tinue for another turn of the wheel. In the records studied it varied from seven to 15 years. That would bring the wet cycle back some time between 1934 and 1942, not a very precise pre- diction, to say the least. In view of the unusual drought conditions one would wishfully expect the reaction to come within the next few years. There is a popular tradition that as soon as irrigation is proposed in | Passes North Dakota it starts to rain, illus- trating perhaps the human perversity of inanimate weather. It is at least safe to say that if the Bowman proj- ect is built now it will meet a series of wet years early in its career which will tempt settlers to refuse water if they can avoid paying for it. tion a Pioneering Experience The new settler has not only to Yearn to irrigate but he has to meet There is the cost of preparing the land. On the North Dakota part of the Lower Yellowstone project the av- erage cost of this was $14.88 an acre according to the 1930 U.S. cenus. It included clearing the land of brush, cleaning laterals on the Belle Fourche Project is done once in every four years and cost $134.00 a mile in 1932. Those cleaned with a Ruth ditcher cost $69.00 8 mile. Most of this can be done by the water users on the Bowman project. Operating personne! will be a sup- erintendent who is a practical irri- gator and can assist the settlers in laying out their laterals and other problems. The completed project will need three ditch riders for about eight months a year. The estimated O. and M. cost per acre on the fully developed project is 75c. The Hazard of Water Logging The most malignant malady to de- velop on irrigation projects has been the “white death,” the sudden ap- pearance years after the project has started of the ground water table near enough to the surface of the of salt. These are usually white although a few types are tive measures are: make them unsuitable for irrigation; leveling and grading rough areas, and building farm laterals and farm irri- gation structures, The largest item of expense is brush clearing. The Bow- man project will have none of this. About half the project has been plow- say five years. The smallness of the ed at one time or another. Prepara- tory costs are estimated at $5 an acre, or $500 per 100-acre tract at reason- able wages for men and teams. Farm buildings are an additional expense. Settlers should be finanically pre- pared to meet those expenses. Some will need credit. How much can be aandled by local banks will depend on how the land is encumbered with ob- jigations to the present land owner and to the government. Local Taxes Will Be Raised Local taxes will be raised by the coming of settlers. On the Belle Fourche project taxes on irrigated land run from 75c to $1.00 an acre under the present reduced status. Most of it goes for schools and local government. A large number of children came in with the “beet help” families. Present taxes on the pro- posed Bowman project are about 15c fn acre. No influx of beet help is anticipated for the railroad is just a Bro-!tew miles too far away. The school Population will some of course. Considerable road improve- ment will be necessary in places to keep the water off the roads. Taxes are estimated at 30c an acre unless improved methods of trucking mage beet culture feasible.

It is very possible that the Bow- man project management being fully appraised and forewarned and taking all possible precaution will be able to forestall and perhaps postpone in-| definitely this most serious of all irrigation hazards. Irrigation’s advantages have been widely advertised. And the youth are demonstrating that many of jthem are true and correct. But it is ‘no panacea for all agricultural ills, It must take its chances with the \weather and the markets. It is not entirely independent of rainfall. Crop yields are always reduced by drought.
