In 1916 - 19 there were floods to contend with, from 1930-35 drought threatened the water supply of cities and farms. Either or both may recur. Each of the three State planning boards could make plans within their respective States, but the waters flowing through this former wheat kingdom and present rich agricultural area paid no attention to State boundaries.
