Why Not Drain Maple and the Reedy Creek
Editor C. E. Otism argues in favor of draining Maple and Reedy Creek basins in Dillon County to reclaim fertile land, reduce wet conditions, and boost real estate values. He warns against shallow drainage and notes current land already cleared and productive, predicting perpetual wetness without proper work and estimating benefits in long term dollars. He recalls prior projects before the war and offers advice to interested locals.
