In English poesy, these disgorge a never-ending stream of diamonds.

...building headwater reservoirs, Army Engineers pointed out that it would take over $1,000,000,000 to do any sort of job to compare with their proposed $300,000,000 levee system. Furthermore reservoirs in the headwaters-they are not practical in the flat valleys of the main stream-might not do the trick. A large part of the rain that causes floods falls in the main valleys. The U. S. Weather Bureau last week published a map showing the distribution of rainfall during the first 25 days of January, the water of the present flood. The heaviest portion, from...
