Photo bv Kettler been called by many "the father of soil conservation had two sin gle orincioles that covered soil onservalion. use me soil accora- in.j to its canahilitv. and treat it according to its needs." If we fol low these principles soil, erosion will not be a problem. We have a wide variety of sous here in the Basin. Some are flat, some are steeu. Some are very deep and others ase shallow and rocky. Some are well neveiopea and very fertile, while others are oung and not too productive, some re capable only 01 producing um ber or range, others are suitable onlv for wildlife and watersheds Here in the southern part of Une ounty we have thousands of acres of land, that when irrigated pro duces high quality potatoes, grain, hav. and other crops, that have made t us area famous. Soil is the basis for all of our other resources such as forests, nnse. water, and wildlife, without soil we could not have any of these others. Therefore soil conser- ition is verv closely related to the conservation of these other re sources. In every case a soil con servation practice is beneficial to one or more of the other resources On the other hand, a practice that is used primarily for the conser vation of one of the other re sources always results In conser vation of the soil. As people began to realize the importance of soil conservation thev began to find out how com plex some conservation problems could be. in studying out me an swers to thse problems a new science has developed. We now have professional soil conservation ists, who devote their time to working out soil conservation prob lems. Soil conservation districts have been organized all over the United States to promote conservation, and orovide technical and other tvnes of assistance to farmers and anchors within meiflistnct. Klam ath Coumtty has three soil conser vation districts, Klamath, Langell Valley, and Poe Valley. They com pletely cover the county, ine larm- cis and rnnchers of the county have received a lot of help through these districts and have done considerable amount of conserva tion work. Practices such as land leveling, drainage, improved irrigation, bet ter pasture and range seedings can spread, but not as noticeable. Many federal and state agencies have furnished technical help and other types of assistance to make this possible, federal and state agencies have also done consider ble conservation work on public domain lands that they administer. We are fortunate here in this area that we do not nave ina serious erosion hazard that can be seen in other, parts of the coun try, but we do have eroSTon. Everyone is familiar with the dust storms that we get in the spring. We also have other damage to the soil from poor farming practices that reduces the productivity. Considerable progress has been made over the past several years. and more is hcing made eacn year. Eventually we will achieve a goal of HKi per cent, son con servation on all of our lands. W will then be using our soils ef ficiently, wisely and without waste, for the benefit of this and comintf generations and thus insure con tinuing prosperity lor tne people of Klamath County.
