Nebraska with a view to utlllxlng tho Platte water In the flood eason for irri gation purposes. Tho resolution points out that a largo imtt of the flood water of the Missis, elppl, which Is rfbw forming so large a problem, actually comes from the water shed east of the Itocky mountains and that a large volume of this Is carried hv the Matte river In Nebraska. It points out further that In the western part of the state there Is u large acreage ofi semi-arid land, which Is very fertile nnd would be very valuable the moment water could be brought to it for Irrigation. In Gosper, Kcarnoy nnd Thelps coun ties enterprising citizens have started a movement for applying the flood waters of tho North Platte river and other Ne braska streams to the semi-arid lands of western Nebraska. The United States Department of Agriculture Is now con ducting an experiment Investigating tho feasibility of the plan.
