Moody today issued a call for a gen-
oral sol and water conaervation
meeting to be held at Waco oa Jan-

by a two-day session of the Texas
Agricultural Workers Association.
Governor Moody, la his call, sug-
gested that whatever recmmenda-
tiona or sugrestions are arrived at
by the conservation meeting be pre-
tented to the agricultural workers
mooting also.
Governor Moody in his call pointed
out that the drouth in eections of

methods of wetor conservation. The
experience of thousands of farmer*
and the scientifie work of the Texas
Agricultural Experiment Station have
brought home to us ths feet thst
the soil itself is the greatest po-
tential reservol for the rain that
falls upon it. A dry year such as
the psst has been, accentuates ths
value of holding the rainfall on the
fields where the crops are’ to be
grown. Increased ylelds of 10 to 100
per cent have been made en terraced

Only a small percentage of Texas
farm and panture land can ever be
irrigated from large reservoirs. Moat

the water that falls upon it."
Of this 30,000,000 acres, Governor
Moody says, more than 3,000,000
