Explaining soil and water con
servation practices which farm
ers of Morrow county may carry
out with assistance under the
1949 Agricultural Conservation
I program, R. S. Thompson,-chair-'
man of the county ACP commit
! tee, said that contour farming
: will do much to save soil and
water on sloping tilled land.
"Furrows on the level even tho
the land is ?;teep," was the sim
ple way Mr. Thompson explained
contouring. Contouring means
carrying out tillage operations
such as disking, weeding, har
rowing, and seeding around the
hillsides instead of up and down
the slope.
Practical application of con
tour farming usually calls for
contouring and strip cropping,
sometimes terracing, he points

.for the farming operations. Once
i the farm is set up with these
'contour guide lines either with
terraces or contour strips the
farming operations can be carried
on year after year on the con

BACK FROM SALEM
Louis Lyons of the Heppner
Photo Studio returned Sunday
from Salem where he spent about
10 days photographing members
of the House and Senate. He re
ports that the legislators have
reached the point where they are
speculating on closing time of the
session, having formed a pool
wherein someone will take home
some extra pay, should he name

easier and more economical
where the land is laid out on the
contour. But the real purpose and
value of contouring, the chair
man explains, is in the topsoil
saved and the moisture held in
the ground for the growing of
crops.
Contoured furrows form a small
dam which prevents the water
from flowing down the slope. The
moisture soaks Into the soil for
future use of the crop and the
topsoil is not washed away. Con
tour farming is one of the effect
ive methods of checking sheet
erosion.
The chairman states that as
sistance provided under the 1949
Agricultural Conservation pro
gram can be used to help cover
part of the extra cost of setting
up a contour system on the farm.
This assistance averages about
half the out-of-pocket cost.
