Second Man- Sask drainage route examined
A meeting at Russell on October 27 gathered Saskatchewan and Manitoba farmers owning land in Russell and Tang enburg to discuss drainage plans. An engineer estimated the first route would cost 30 000 to 900 000 dollars due to rail and road crossings, making it unfeasible. An alternate route, about seven miles south, would drain into a creek feeding the Assiniboine River and may be cheaper. Officials could not agree on next steps.
