E. H. Spoor, California chairman, in making this ment, said he had no intention casting any spirit of gloom the holiday, but that too often forget "from whence come strength." "We should not forget the day there are only two and half acres of harvested corn for each person from which have taken this abundance food," he said. "Twenty-five ago it was three and one-acres per person." He went on to point out with the amount of land and the population increase is time that every person interest in protecting our farm from which we derive most food.

Again in 1948 as past every dollar of federal fund be made to go as far as possible in buying conservation. and state farmer committees have been working out the details of the 1948 Agricultural Conti- tion Program so that a con- tention program can be carried within the limits of avail- funds. U.S. FARMERS AND THE MARSHALL PLAN How would the Marshall affect American agriculture? According to Secretary of culture Clinton P. Anders adoption would mean tha- success of American foreign iency for at least four more would continue to rest in many measure on the shoulders oi people. If funds are supplied to him aid requested by the 16ern European nations, Sec Anderson has stated it have these three effects on agriculture: 1. It would mean continue U.S. food production duri- four years particularly in grain producing areas of tha tion—and in general woul lquire continued full use farm plant; 2. It would continue tha on our grain-producing area further delay needed shi grassland agriculture; 3. It would mean a self-su- ing European market for our products following the 4-year iod which would be consid- larger than could otherwise bepected. The plans proposed by tha Although American farmers have produced 40 percent more food in 1937 than they did in the period 1855 to 1939 and American consumers are eating 17 percent more food per person, there is a sobering thought that should not be overlooked this Thanksgiving. E. H. Spoor, California PMA chairman, in making this statement, said he had no intentions ofasting any spirit of gloom over the holiday, but that too often we forget "from whence cometh our strength." "We should not forget that, today there are only two and one-quarter acres of harvested cropland for each person from which we have taken this abundance of food," he said. "Twenty-five years ago it was three and one-quarter acres per person." He went on to point out that, with the amount of land limited and the population increasing it time that every person took an interest in protecting our topsoil from which we derive most of our food. When the first Thanksgiving was held in this country there was an average of nine inches of soil. Now there are six inches. Through the Agricultural Conservation Program, the nation has a opportunity to cooperate—and is cooperating—with its farmers in conserving soil and water, assisting these farmers in caring out soil and water-conserva- ern European nations include provisions for widespread aid from nations other than the United States. In addition, the cooperating nations state that if the requested aid—particularly fertilizer and farm machinery—is furnished, they would expect to have their agricultural production up to about prewar levels by 1950-51. STRIP-CROPPING SAVES SOIL Strip-cropping was carried out on 6,878,000 acres of cropland under the 1946 Agricultural Conservation Program. Since the beginning of the program in 1938 farmers have been assisted in strip-cropping more than 53 million acres. In drought areas threatened with dust storms, this practice of alternating a crop of grain with a strip of fallow will help to hold the soil. To be successful, however, there must be a growing crop or a strip of unplowed stubble to hold the soil in place. The vegetation on top of the soil and the roots of the plants help to tie the soil down. Unprotected summer fallow or plowed land in which there is little if any organic matter in the surface gives the wind a chance to pick up the fine particles of soil. These small particles of sand help to loosen more soil as they are moved by the wind across the field. Strips tied down with a crop check this wearing away by the wind. Strip-cropping also helps to hold moisture on the land. The vegetation on the strip in a crop slows down the surface run-off from rain or melting snow. More of the moisture is absorbed into the soil to supply needed moisture later on. KEEPING UP ORGANIC MATTER INSURES YIELDS Many instances of complete fail- Phosphates increase the growth of legumes and grasses. Terracing and contour cropping conserve moisture. All these help to produce more organic matter to hold and build up the soil. POOLNIG AGREEMENT INCREASES IRRIGATION WATER In the southwest where irrigation water has made the desert bloom, a third more water during the summer often spells the difference between a crop and no crop. An abundance of early water when the snow is melting on the mountains may be lost because there is not enough water to mature the crop later on in the summer. That is why a third more water to the farmers of Washington county in southwestern Utah meant so much. These farmers taking water from the Hurricane canal had time and again seen their crops dry up and burn under a scorching sun following a heavy rain or cloudburst. This area is subject to severe water erosion. The soil is loose and is easily washed away. When the infrequent but torrential rains came the canal was filled with silt, and before it could be cleaned out the crops had been damaged from lack of water. Also weeds and Bermuda grass checked the flow of water in the canal and from a fourth to a third of the stream was lost through seepage and evaporation. Through a pooling agreement under the Agricultural Conservation Program, the farmers on the Hurricane canal have lined the canal's most hazardous sections. Already this has meant at least a third more water has reached their crops. Forty farmers cooperated in this project, which affects 1,858 acres of crop and orchard land. To line the canal, they used 273 When the first Thanksgiving was held in this country there was an average of nine inches of soil. Now there are six inches. Through the Agricultural Conservation Program, the nation has an opportunity to cooperate—and is cooperating—with its farmers in conserving soil and water. By assisting these farmers in caring out soil and water conservation practices, the nation is helping to make sure that future thanksgiving days will continue have the abundance of 1947. "But if we neglect our land our will go, and with it our civilization," was the dire prediction of the state chairman. "We have much to be thankful for but a Divine Providence will either forgive nor continue abundant blessings if we fail to our part in protecting our land." CP CHAIRMAN EXPLAINS 100 PAYMENT LIMIT Farmers who are planning now carry out soil and water conservation practices under the 1948 Agricultural Conservation Program should not overlook the $500 limitation on payments, advises by L. Hale, chairman of the Orange County ACP committee. He said that although less than a percent of the farmers who participated in the 1946 ACP program earned more than $500, all farmers should be aware that under the 1948 program no payment to any one person is to exceed $500. Hale explained that payments made to farmers under the Agricultural Conservation Program are help defray the cost of approved conservation practices which are needed to protect the nation's soil and water resources. Instead of bring the work done, the U.S. Department of Agriculture through the ACP assists farmers in carrying out the needed conservation practices. Assistance is given both payments and in materials and services. This assistance averages about 50 percent of the cost, with many instances, the farmer doing the work. hhwslreJPxe-faremrETAOIN Again in 1948, as in past years, every dollar of federal funds will be made to go as far as possible buying conservation. County and state farmer committeemen have been working out the details of the 1948 Agricultural Conservation Program so that a conservation canal and from a fourth to a third of the stream was lost through seepage and evaporation. Through a pooling agreement under the Agricultural Conservation Program, the farmers on the Hurricane canal have lined the canal's most hazardous sections. Already this has meant at least a third more water has reached their crops. Forty farmers cooperated in this project, which affects 1,858 acres of crop and orchard land. To line the canal, they used 273 yards of concrete. Assistance they could receive to help carry out conservation practices on their individual farms was transferred and "pooled" on this joint project which will mean a third more water in the future. The Soil Conservation Service cooperated in the project by furnishing plans and other technical assistance. But the project was handled as a pooling agreement under the Agricultural Conservation Program with approval of both the county agricultural conservation committee and the state PMA committee. The county committee was responsible for seeing that the project met program specifications. The payments under the program made it possible for the cooperating farmers to carry out this soil and water conservation practice.
