TT doesn’t take a “gully-washer” or a “goose
1 dro wilder” to rob you of your precious top-
soil. Bare land, up-and-down-hill row crops,
and over-grazed range all invite rain to escape
without working for you—and to erode your
topsoil away. But sod, or cover crops act like
a blotter to absorb and hold the-growth-
giving water. Slopes and hillsides tilled on the
contour, with alternating strips of crop-land
and grass, save maximum amounts of water,
hold erosion to a minimum. Flatter fields
may be subsurface-tilled to keep the protec-
tive rain-absorbing trash on top. Correct
rotat ions of crops, which include plow-under
cropk, will help absorb and hold moisture.
You need lots of water. It takes about 200
barrels of water to grow one bushel of corn.
That’s around 625,000 gallons for every 100
bushels. And most Other growing plants also
require large amounts of moisture . . . You
can’t control the amount of rainfall you get.
But you «!// conserve it, so that every drop
does tfie best possible job of making grass or
crops for you.
As farmers and ranchers in every state well
know; water has a “split personality.” It can
be your ally, or a devastating foe. Lashing
rains can erode away inches of fertile topsoU
in a short time. But it ta^es nature 300 to
1,000 years to rebuild each lost inch. That’s
why the control of water is so important in a
good land management program. Consider-
able progressin erosion control has been made
in the past ten years. But we’ve still got a
long way to go! Hundreds of millions of pro-
ductive acres are endangered by erosion and
gullying. They’re washing away! Only good
land management can save our soil and keep
America strong. It will pay you—and all of
US'—to make that water walk downhill.

A System that Works!
I get riled up when I hear talk of chang-
ing our system ’of government, or our
system of doing business, here in Amer-
ica. Sure, there’s always room for
improvement. But you can improve a
house without wrecking the building!
Any system that produces worthwhile results must be
a pretty good one. I think our way of doing things has
worked out mighty well for Americans.
Here we are—about 6% of the world’s population,
living on less than 6% of the world’s land. Yet, through
what I like to call our “three IV’—Initiative, Ingenuity
and Industry—we have created the American way of
life. We enjoy greater freedoms than the other 94% of
the world’s people. We have educational opportunities
for all.... schools, colleges, universities, libraries. And
48% of the world’s radios. As just one measure of per-
sonal comfort and convenience, we have 92% of the
world’s bathtubs. We have a motor vehicle for every
four people. And more than 286,000 miles of paved
roads for them to run on
Most important of all, thanks to your system of
agricultural production, we have plenty of food for all
of us—and enough to help feed' our less fortunate
neighbors. Yes, I think it’s worth getting riled up in
favor of the American System now and again.

Soil Conservation Service
Lincoln, Nebraska
Good pasture is the key to pro-
duction of more meat, milk and
wool, at lower cost. In addi-
tion, a good cover of grass ..,
protects your soil against wind and water erosion.
When you have improved pasture, or range, good
livestock and p sound conservation program, you
have a profitable combination.
Many *iew grasses have been developed in
recent years. Several of these promise to become
real money-makers for livestock men. They out-
yield old grasses, give a longer grazing season,
and provide better soil protection.
1. Smooth Brome—The Lincoln, Auchenbach and
Fisher strains give higher yields, are easier estab-
lished and withstand summer heat and drought
better in the central, eastern and southern brome
areas.
2. Intermediate Wheotgro**—A high-yielding, sod-
forming cool-season grass that is easier to estab-
lish than most varieties. It is highly palatable
and does exceptionally well in the central and
northern plains and western mountain area.
3. Sand lovegratt—Highly palatable, especially
well adapt*! to sandy soils.
4. Toll Wheotgro** —A high-yielding cool-season
bunchgrafls that does better than other grasses
under alkaline conditions.
5. Ky-31 Fescue—High-yielding, supplies longer
grazing, especially good for southern and south-,
eastern states.
6. Russian Wild Rye, Blackwell Strain of Switch-
grass, Hays Buffalo Grass, Yellow Bluestem and
Sweet Sudan are other new or improved grasses
for adapted areas.
Grasses usually give higher yields and better
quality forage when grown in association with an
adapted legume.
