Some Overflowing In the western part of the county Lanes Norden and Mary have been filled to overflowing while Lake Marsh has also renamed its former level. Lake Norden was left nearly full last year and recent heavy rains in that part of the county sent enough water into it to cause an overflow about 13 inches deep and 20 feet wide into Lake It has been flowing steadily for week and still continues vigorously. Overflow into Lake John has flooded all of the crops which were sown on 'ts dry bottom, transformed into a cropland during the drouth, with three more feet of water being required to fill it to capacity.

Fanners who have crops in Lake Albert have sought to dam the water in Lake John to prevent it from draining into the former which has been transformed into a fertile farming area for many years past. If the present overflow continues, local observers predict that within another week the crops there will be in extreme danger. Flankinton, S. D.
