SALEM, Dec. 13 11') When people hear about soil erosion they think of the midwest's dust bowl or southern tobacco land, not realizing erosion has caused much damago to Oregon land, partcularly easfern Oregon Wheatland. Th federal soil conservation service has worked hard for 13 years to convince farmer they should take steps to stop ero sion, and Sam L. Sloan, Oregon state conservationist for the soil conservation service, thinks the farmers now are convinced. Sloan says half of the state's whcatlands have lost half of their original topsoll, so soli con servation practices are coming Just in tlmo. But some land al ready has been abandoned be cause It has lost so much topsoil. Much of the soil conservation work has been done by the state soil conservation districts, which are run by the farmers them selves. The law creating these districts was passed in 1939. Soil conservation technicians survey the soil, determining the amount of soil lost by erosion. and suggest the best use to which each acre should be put. Then they demonstrate oiner methods, such as contour farming and ar rangement of crops, to prevent erosion. Sloan said it's been a tough Job selling this program to the far mer, but the light now is begin ning to be seen. The Job Is complicated in low rainfall areas, where additional steps must be taken to get the moisture to soak into the ground. This is done by keeping the stubble on the surface, Instead of burning it. "While touching a match to a field of atubble is still much too common practice, it Is on the way out," Sloan says, "in fact, STREPTOMYCIN Successor to Penicillin NOW AVAILABLE Useful in undulent fever, dysentery, flu, etc., urinary infections ond certain arthritis cases. McATEE CLINIC . Phone 3171 122 So. 7th St. 1 1 1 ' 1 19 years of results at the Sher man county branch experiment station at Moro shows that burn ing the atubble decreases yield in that section. The 10-year av erage yield from plots wher sll straw had been returned to tne soil was 28.4 bushels per acre. Yield from plots where the straw had been burned every year av eraged only 24.6 bushels per acre. Sloan said farmers and ranch ers need much technical assist ance in conservation work. "We've learned that the aver age land owner is no more pre pared to solve all his erosion problems alone than he is pre pared to solve all his legal or medical problems alone," Sloan said. "The wheat rancher needs the specialized scientific assistance on his farm of soil conservation surveyors, agronomists, en gineers and oiner tecnnicians. Obviously rsnchers the people who own and control the land have direct responsibility for the protection of our land resources. The national interest shares this responsibility. "Landowners should become the leaders and have control of the soil conservation program. That is exactly what is happen ing through soil conservation districts." Gilliam county is t!ie only county included in an entire soil conservation district. Other dis tricts are in southern Wasco, the Heppner district, west Umatilla county, western Grant county. Union county, near Wallowa, the Keating and Eagle valley dis tricts of Baker county, and the Langell and Poe valley districts in Klamath county. Price trends are unfavorable to farmers, the U.

OSC Livestock Probe Asked SALEM, Dec. 14 (P) The Western Oregon Livestock asso ciation yesterday demanded an investigation of the livestock situation at Oregon State college.

Other recommendations: An ended November 18, farm oper ation and living costs went up 2.4 per cent, while prices re ceived for farm products dropped 3.7 per cent. varsorooisT . foot spsoiaust Dr. Kenneth S.
