Robert Friedrich Uses
Hairy Vetch As Erosion
Control Strip Crop
Hairy vetch has been success-
fully used as arc erosion control
strip this year by Robert Fried-
rich in cooperating with the
Bartlett Soil Conservation Camp
in carrying out a complete ero-
sion control program on his
farm located three miles north-
west of Bartlett.
"Hairy vetch that was seeded
at the rate of ten pounds per
acre in the fall of 1937 has made
a dense growth about three feet
in height at this time" Mr.
Friedrich stated. "I have had
excellent protection on. my land
all spring and I believe I can cut
Vo tons of good vetch hay per
acre and I know it will greatly
improve the fertility of imy soil"
Mr. Friedrich continued.
In carrying out a complete co-
ordinated erosion control pro-
gram Mr. Friedrich has develop
ed on land mot suited for culti-
vation an excellent 27 acre per-
manent pasture on which he is
carrying 22 animal units of live
stock by supplementing his per-
manent pasture with 10 acres of
Sudan grass. A small portion of
the remaining 91 acres of Mr.
Friedrich's 128 acre farm is ter-
raced and on the remainder
strip cropping contour cultiva-
tion and a good crop rotation is
being practiced.
By carrying out the soil con-
servation practices recommend-
ed by the Bartlett Soil Conserva-
tion Camp Mr. Friedrich's farm
has suffered very little farm
erosion during 1938.
