Ralph Richards. SCS work unit

SOJ began work with the Joe-
Ily-governrd lleppner soli and
water conservation district In
llltl.
Now there are more than
1I9.0TjO acres of land In the
district. SCS works with 313 co-
operators through the district
program. Icieharus said.
SCS was preceded by the boll
Erosion Service, the first at
tempt to bring scientific know-
how In land treatment and man
agement to bear on the dust
storms which swept out from
the midwest to cloud the skies
along the Atlantic Coant. SCS
was created April 27. 1935. The
first soil const-nation district
was created two years later. Now
there are nearly 3,"X) districts in
the country and 02 In the stale,
In the 21 years SCS has been
working with the district these
soil and water conservation
measures have tn-en applied to
he land In Morrow county:
A total of 21.132 acres in strip
cropping; 4.5W) acres leveled for
belter water utilization: 23 miles
of canals and ditches: Go miles
! of diversion ditches; 1200 acres
has been put under conserva
tlon rotation; 274 farms have
been put under conservation
planning.
Basic to the program Is the
soil aurvey. The survey Is part
of the National Cooperative Soil
Survey In which both private
and public agencies are cooper
ating to provide for the first
time a full Inventory of this re
source, Richards said.
Conservation and man a g e
ment of land and related re
sources are baaed on what these
surveys reveal about capabil
ities, characteristics and hazards
of soils. Relatively new are in
terpretations for engineers, con
tractors, planners, utilities and
others.
Snow surveys, coordinated by
SCS, are important to conserva
tlon and management In west
ern states, Richards said. Snow
surveyors make monthly trips
Into mountain snowpack areas
to measure and sample snow.
This provides data for estimat
ing total water stored in these
natural storage areas and what
the seasonal runoff and stream
flows will bo, Richards said.
The Small Watershed (Public
Law 5f6) program is growing In
importance, as Is the farm rec
reation enterprise, Richards said.
Other programs also reflect an
Integrated community or area
wide approach: Resource con
servation and development; rur
al areas development; river ba
sin planning.
"The soil and water conser
vation concept has shifted from
healing to prevention of damage
and waste through development
and management or these nat
ural resources," Richards said.
