has to think twice about going for a walk because he has twice as
many feet as his fine-feathered friends. Were it not for the fact
that his rear feet point backwards, Charlie could easily move “on
the double.” As it is, the chick, who is owned by Mrs. Oliver

FORT WORTH — Farmers and
ranchers in the wind erosion areas
if Oklahoma ana Texas are taking
advantage of good moisture con-
ditions in their fight against soil
^lowing next fall and winter.
Field men of the Soil Conser-
vation Service in 51 soil conser-
vation districts in Texas and 23 of
the districts in Oklahoma have re-
ported to Regional Director Louis
P. Merrill of SCS that plantings

’,61! 000 . r.rres, the Soil Conser-
ation Service men estimate. In
Texas the plantings have totaled
5,703,000 acres, .in Oklahoma, 1,-
907,000 acres. The 1949 plantings in

The huge gain in plantings of
wind resistant crops means that
more than one-fourth of all the
cropland in the area in which wind
erosion is a hazard has been put
in crops that will leave a protective I
stalk cover after harvest. Merrill j
explained The total acerage in sor- |
gums and sudans is ever 1, 000.000
