Petition for Federal Aid to
As­

000 Pipe Line,
Mitchell. S. rx. March TT.-—An im
mense project to irrigate a strip of
lane 500 miles long and 25 miles v ide
in he western half of North and South
Dakota Is being promoted by the Great
Plains irrigation association. with
headquarters at Fort Pierre. The sec
retary of the company, G. G. Inman. is
In the city circulating a petition among
the business men for the raising of
funds to finance a preliminary sur
vey which will be sent with the peti
tion to the federal authorities for finan
cial aid. The idea is to take water
from the Yellowstone river, where it
flows into the Missouri in North Da
kota. store it in natural reservoirs
there and then carry it in an Immense
pipe line down through the states of
North and South Dakota. The alti
tude at the mouth of the Yellowstone
Is 2.665 feet, and at the White river,
where the pipe line ia to empty. 1,360
feet, which fall it is estimated will fur
nish plenty of pressure to syphon the
water for wide distribution. The proj
ect will bring in 8.000.000 acres of land
and will -ost about $80,000.00(1. It is
claimed that homes for i'.000,000 will
be furnished by the project and that
land now worth less than S10 will be
raised in value to over |100. Mr. In
man bas been very successful with his
