State Drainage j Clenison College, Sept. 4.?Prelimi ! nary figures on organized 'drainage en ' terprlses in South Carolina have been -announced by the census bureau. ! showing a total of 164,697 acres of ? land In organized drainage districts' involving a total cost of $618,083. These figures are as of December 31, 191?. It is interesting to note that the drainage areas Include 62.427 acres of improved farm land, 73." 1J acres of timbered tnd cut-over land, and 19,259 acres of other unimproved (land. The sWampy or wet land sub? ject to overflow included in these figures amount.'' to 5.70?) acres. The total land area in South Car? olina is 19.516,800 acres, so that the land included in the organized drainage enterprises is only eight tenths of one per cent of the total area, though there are hundreds of thousands of acres, especially in the coastal plains section of the state, ihat could and should be drained for .?.profitable agriculture. The average cost per acre for or? ganized drainage, according to the above figures, is the very small sum of $3.91). Wien this small cost is considered in connection with the wonderful improvement in produc? tivity of the land so drained, it is surprising that much more rapid progress is not made in organizing' drainage districts in the state. It is a form of cooperation among farm? ers and land owners, however, that is meeting with more and more fa? vor In the Palmetto state. -\-1-? Gas Expert in Columbia Columbia. Sept. 3.?A. S. B.
