VOTE AS YGU
PLEASE BUT VOTE
The circumstance that tills U
not a presidential election year
will i hi bt less Inject the Texas
charge of lethargy with regard to
governmental affairs and thus
preclude a heavy vote on Novem-
ber 6. but It Is nonetheless true
that If the hottest national cam-
paign Imaginable were tn prog-
ress tha vote In Texas would be
fur less representative of the true
will of the people than the vote
in L....UO sUU-s This is due to tho
inexplicable fact that Texans
habitually take less interest In
the problems of government
than do the citizens of other
stales, this apathy being reflect-
ed unmistakably in contrasts In
the number of people to vote in
Texas and in other states.
Two years ago, for example,
although the circumstance that
a Texan was on the national
ticket as Mr. Roosevelt's running
ir ate had the effect of .stimulat-
ing more interest in political af-
fairs among Texans, the recorded
'etc in Texas was far below that
in other states. Although only
four states exceeded Texas in
population, thirteen east larger
('aliform.-, east nearly
hove times as many votes as
T xas did, and Michigan nearly
: .i ■. a.s many, and among those
s’ate.s to poll a heavier vote than
Texas was Kentucky, for In-
stance whose population is less
than half that of Texas. The ar-
umetit is often advanced that
■h- p,,H tax qualification in Tex-
as is responsible for this condi-
!i >n. yet Massachusetts, with l.-
fsOf’ 000 less population than
Texas *.Iso has a poll tax quali-
fication and yet manages to poll
o. at twice ,is many votes a.s
Texas does in ' he average elec-
; ion
Tins condition is sufficiently j
t .-atfactory to encourage eon-
su! i live thought in quest of a
■ ■ ntedy but inasmuch as the im-
i 't'an -e of tlie f rtlaomiiig

there is another asjx-i i of

A two-year series of tests also
show the total run-off of water
from grass or foreat covered
slopes was only a small fraction
of that from barren or cultivat-
ed fields It was found that soils
having a vegetative cover absorb
practically the rainfall, and the
sorts of the region possess great
water storage capacity. A tree or
plant cover, therefore, In addi-
tion to preventing abnormal ero-
sion, U shown to be of tremen-
dous value In flood control and
st ream flow regulation.
Tesis were made on a series of
plots having several different
tvpes of cover, the areas all hav-
ing a uniform 10 per cent slope.
For a plot in a cultivated cotton
field in which the rows parallel-
ed the slope, surface run-off wa-
ter averaged 58 per cent of the
total precipitation, and in heavy
rains amounted to as much us
96 per cent The rate of soil ero-
sion on-ithis plot for two years
exceeded 195 tons per acre.
For a cultivated cotton field
v ith contour plowing, run-off
totaled 47 per cent of the pre-
cipitation and soil erosion
amounted to fib tons per acre.
Run-off from barren plots in an
i hi field amounted to 48 per cent
of the rainfall and erosion to-
’ i ted nearly loo tons per acre
In contrast ’.lie run-off from-
plots in an oak forest was less
than 1 (ter cent of the total rain-
fall Erosion n >m these plots
was negligible, the quantity of
soil washed from the forest cov-
ered plots being only one forty-
three hundredths of that lost
from the plot under cultivation.
On comparative plots, if was
calculated that It would take
1785 inches of rainfall to wash
a pound of soil from the forest
covered land, compared witn
only one-half inch of rain to
erode a pound of soil from a cul-
tivated field, 'lo erode the top

the Post speaks have been car-

ber of years, and during the last
five years have grea’ly increas-
