LARGE RESERVOIRS NEEDED 10 GOVERN FLOW OF STREAMS Are Only Permanent Solution to State’s Pollution Problems, Says Consultant Permanent solution of North Da- kota’s stream pollution problems can ‘only be accomplished by the creation of relatively large reservoirs for regu- lation of stream flow, Dr. Irvin La- vine, consultant, told the state plen- ning board Wednesday. ‘These reservoirs, capable of storing excess surface run-off and releasing water when the natural stream flow is inadequate were seen as a means of reducing pollution and increasing the utility of available water re- sources. Small reservoirs, because of exces- sive loss by evaporation, will not ac- complish this purpose, although they may serve other useful purposes, the report said. Must Co-operate Municipalities and industries must do their part in this program by pro- viding adequate facilities for the treatment of their sewage before be- ing discharged into the streams, a zeport prepared by Oscar Becker of the board’s consulting staff declared. Becker said s recent tabulation by the stete health department showed that 14 municipalities, with a total population of 20,422, are now 4is- charging sewage without any treat- ment . Also, 39 municipalities with 48,000 population now provide only primary treatment which is “entirely inadequate.” It is estimated, he said, that 2 tote! expenditure of nearly $1,500,000 will be needed to provide necessary facil- ities for these 53 communities. Every effort should be made to install pro- per treatment fecilities at the earliest opportunity, he asserted. Need Normal Flow “Tm somé areas the water supply is so limited that the greatest possible economy must be exercised,” he de- clared. “Water lost by evaporation serves no useful purpose, while a nor- mal flow of water in a stream is re- quired to sustain various forms of life and dispose of waste incident to civilization.” Becker's report stated several municipalities have experienced great difficulties in securing a hygienic, eafe, and adequate water supply in recent years. Need for a comprehensive pollu- tion study to supplement preliminary deta on public water supplies and sewage treatment was seen by Becker who explained thet except for the study of the Red river during 1931-33, ho such study has ever been con- dueted in North. Dakota. Corn-Hog Ratio Hits Normal in August Washington, Sept. 1—(#)—Govern- ment charts show the corn-hog ratio —special business barometer for the farmer who raises pigs—was normal this month for the first time in more than a year. The ratio is the average price for 100 pounds of live hog expressed in bushels of corn at average prices. It stood at 11.2 on Aug. 15 for the entire United States. ; A month ago the ratio was 9.1 and ® year ago 9.5. When it rises above 11, government livestock experts said this usually assures the farmer a profit in feeding corn to his pigs. C. A. Burmeister, agriculture de- partment economist, predicted the corn-hog ratio would increase to 14 and possibly 16 this fall. Runaway Accident Bordered by flowers, rocks and Miniature buildings an attractive gar- den is the result of three years of work on the part of Mr. and Mrs. E. A Lund, 216 Fourteenth 8t. Foot-high gnomes grimace at the visitor at the corner of the Lund home before reaching the garden proper. One sits by a tiny rock-enclosed pool thoughtfully smoking his pipe while another wheels a load of rocks. They | may perhaps be considering how best to approach two swimmers lounging in the pool beneath a large toadstool. With a little winding the swimmers; move gaily about the pool, doing a good imitation of the Austrelian crawl. side the pool is made homelike by tiny bird houses, and a parrot keeps | watch from near the oleander bush | that shelters the scene. A strip of green, carpet-like lawn | leads back to the garden. Here, after oh-ing and ah-ing at the genera) impression conveyed, the visitor be-) gins to notice the wealth of detail | that forms the attractive whole. Bird Houses Well ‘Rented’ On the left as the garden is entered are two bird houses, gleaming white trellises. One is the work of Mr. Lund and the other of Mrs. Lund. Mrs. Lund’s is the more ‘complex, having several entrances, @ front stoop and a multi-colored tar roof. Both, she says, have plenty of renters. The master of the house comes in for plenty of “ribbing” be- cause of the simplicity of his bird architecture. The amazing thing about this par- completely the work of its owners. Mrs. Lund, with her free days, has|sot made the several little wootien figures standing about the lawn. A mingture reproduction of the Coolidge tower of | the Black Hills is also her work. It Stands at the end of the garden, painted brown with a green roof with! the United States flag flying above it. Tiny ladders lead up from one) floor to the next. “Surely, I made it,’ al ‘Mrs. Lynd laughingly gdmits, “and out of orange and apple boxes at that!” To the right of the tower is a small} The little rustic cottage be-| perched on| ticular garden is that it is almost | tock garden, bordered by rocks brought from ell over the state and wherever the Lunds happened to find gaily col- ored or odd ones. Severa! varieties of cactus are planted here and a large ice plant spreads over the stones. Under a tree at the rear of the gar- jden is a long pool, cemented by the |Lunds, and bordered with rocks which are piled up around a white windmill, |which stands about four and a half feet high. Water is pumped by the | windmill down through the sluice into the pool. Quite deep, it is the home of @ number of gold fish that dart jin and out among the water lilies, water hyacinths and cat-tails grow- ing there. Overlooking the water from their vantage points on over- jhanging rocks are impudent green |frogs. From a rustic bridge a tiny boy fishes endlessly, hoping that \some day one of the goldfish may jnibble at his line. A second pair of jgnomes are attracted by the activity of this corner of their little world and jkeep watch over the pool. i Rustic Bridge Built | A second and smaller pool is back of this one. Between them stand tall white cranes, some more of the wooden figures made by the mistress of the garden. This pool is spanned by @ miniature wooden suspension bridge, ending in a rustic ladder, |which leads up to @ little wooden cabin, snuggled in the rocks. Almost before the visitor has sat- isfied himself with the two pools he, | spots the “old oaken bucket” at the jrear of the garden. A tiny wooden keg hangs above the make-believe pid inviting all to remember the old Two fountains, made by the Lunds | of multi-colored rocks and cement, | and studded with shells, furnish the means for watering the entire gar-| |den.

They sit happily in their geranium bed with an arched black cat to keep them com- pany, while a tiny bonneted girl in ted waters the flowers. Other wooden figures thet Mrs. | Lund has made for her garden include two deer, shaded naturally in brown and black, and a familly of ducks, walking sedately toward the pools. A lady in red and white sits in her green straight chair looking demurely at the bouquet of flowers she holds in her hand. Then there are a pair of blackamoor twins on a teeter-totter, while a third sits by himself, evidently sad to be left out of the fun. A pert black and white Boston bull eyes with longing the white rabbit scampering over the grass before him, never realia~ ing that he can never quite catch up with the bunny. Honeysuckle Hedge Around Lawn A hedge of honeysuckle circles the front of the lawn, supplemented in the garden by 9 row of delphiniums on one side, while on the other are | Canna lilies, gladiolus and sweet peas. | A very low white fence separates the jback garden from the front lawn. At |the corner of the house where the two jmeet is a pile of rocks, transparent green, rusty red, crystal, shades of jbrown, gleaming isinglass and rose quartz, evidences of the keen eyes of the Lunds on their travels. One of the cement blocks leading |through the garden bears the date |when they first started work, June 2, 1934. The beauty of the garden \bears witness to the success of the |three years fae ae and effort. Prac- tically nothing in the whdle garden jhas been bought but has been made at the Lund home. Mrs. Lund’s activities are not con- jfined to her garden, however, for her |home is filled with a number of things, the result of her handwork.
