So Conservation Pays
Off For Oregon Farmers
By PAUL W. HAHVEY JR.
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,

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. S. department
o,f agriculture says.
It reported that for the month
