Cuts Through Bends to Facilitate Flow of the Kankakee River.

Pnited States engineers' report on the drainage of the Kankakee marsh sets forth that 500,000 acres could be redeemed. The value of these improvements can scarcely be estimated, but similar land in Indiana has increased In value from $5 to $100 after drainage. The cost of the improvements are estimated at $4,000,000. After careful survey and investigation during the past two years, the engineers offer a comprehensive plan for increasing the carrying capacity of the Kankakee river by shortening the lower channel from seventy-two to forty-two miles bv

cutting off eighty-four bends. Tills is

accomplished by cuts varying from 150

to u.jOO feet in length. The land, when properly drained will be among the richest in northern Indiana. The low land known as the Kankakee marsh lies in Lake, Newton, Porter, LaPorte, Jasper, St. Joseph. Marshall' and Starke counties in Indiana and in Kankakee county. Illinois.
