the on-coming car, and as he tried to avoid an accident, his semi-truck jack-knifed, taking the right

Other passengers in the station wagon were Dodge Wilson, 21, Arnold Bartels 27, Jerry Harden

Greer said the Highway Dep-
artment built a new warehouse
last year to stockpile raw steel
for license plates and has already
saved enough money on the 1964
plates (now being manufactured)
to pay for half the cost of the
building. The warehouse storage
space makes it possible to buy
steel on a firm commitment for
one year, avoiding the possibility

Just what is conservation?
And what part do I and my
generation play in it? To me,
conservation is preserving and
using wisely the bountiful natural
resources we are fortunate enough
to have access to. Today’s youta
faces a challenge in putting con-
servation to use.
In past centuries, the land we
see today has been passed from
father to son and from genera-
tion to generation. Now, we have
inherited this age-old legacy. Yet
our generation has more advan-
tages than any generation before
us. Today’s youth has an op-
portunity to inform themselves
on wise conservation methods.
They have a chance to put these
methods to use by using recently
developed equipment. We owe it
to the pioneers before us who
settled this great expanse of
land to make their efforts worth-
while.
The land we have to work with

The program of on-the-farm
technical assistance in soil and
water conservation is being ac-
celerated by the Soil Conservation
Service. The objective of the
program is to achieve a more
stable agriculture, more depend-
able source of income, and pro-
gressively satisfactory livelihood
for the people of the county.
To achieve this goal, there must
be widespread use of good soil
management, water conservation
practices, and adjustments in
sizes and types of farm which
will enable farmers and ranchers
to cope with the climatic haz-
ards of this area.
There must be a complete
understanding of the objectives
and coordinated teamwork on the
part of all concerned, farmers,
landowners, civic and agricultureal
groups, private industry, local.
State and Federal agencies and
governments in order to translate
this program into action to create

“There is a large variety of

Then follow the directions and
use all precautions that are in-

after using household pesticides
