Cass County to Hove a Home
Demonstration Agent
The Farm Bureau Board feels that
the County can raise $400.00 among
all the people of Cass County who
favor bringing a Home Demonstra
tion Agent into the county so that
the women and girls of the county
can have the same opportunity of re
ceiving the Extension work that the
men and boy's have. They hope that
when anyone is asked to help or con
consists in staking down a large brush
tribute to this that they will gladly
do so. . :
The Short Ditch Becomes a Long Onf
Ditches in Nebraska have a habit
of getting larger instead of smaller
in most cases and they grow deeper
by the action of what is known as
overfalls, or we might say just plain
water falls. No doubt you have no
ticed this action on your farm. Near
the lower part of the ditch a small
water fall starts. Year by year it
eats back into valuable farm land and
eventually may cause a ditch which
is 20 to 30 feet deep and from 60 to
3 feet wide. The amount of water
passing over the overfall may not
be great but the damage done may
be considerable. Sometimes a second
overfall starts below the first one and
they chase each other upstream ir.
a merry procession.
Oftentimes checking the first one
will also way-lay the others. There
are several methods used and while
they are more or less temporary will
give considerable relief. One system
to construct a large apron of woven
wire and brush which is staked dowi
after the overfall has been shoveled
off so it is more of a slide than a
direct drop. In many cases a plank
chute has been used effectively to
conduct water from the higher level
to the lower one, although galvan
ized sheet iron could be used for the
same purpose. Any of these methods
however, must be considered more
or less temporary affairs as the reay
way to check an overfall is to con
struct below it a soil saving dam
with a large tube running through
the base of il and turning up verti
cally on the upstream side. In this"
way the ditch can be filled, the over
fall checked and the jobb is per
manent for many years.
The Farm Bureau Office would be
glad to advise you regarding ditches
and give you information as to how
they may be controlled. L. It.
