Regular monthly meetings are held on the first
Monday of each month at 1:30 p.m. In the Soil
Conservation Service Office, 303-A Hwy. 71 East in
Llano. No person, regardless of race, color, sex, or
national origin will be excluded from participating
in or denied the benefits of any programs or ac-

to any end ell meetings.
******
This year marks the 39th year that the district
has been in operetion. During this time, we have
seen many changes take place. New and better
adapted plant varieties have been developed; our
grade of cattle has Improved; we have found
newer end better methods in our farming and ran-
ching operation.
Yet, our basic objective has not changed. That
objective is the conservation of our natural
resources. We believe that the conservation of our
soil, water, plant and wildlife resources is an
essential way of life. It involves the use of each
acre of land for what it is best suited, it involves
the conservation treatment of each acre of land
according to its needs for protection and im-
provement.
The district is self-governed and has the
authority to enter into working agreements with
government agencies and private concerns to
carry out its purposes. The district has a working
agreement with the USDA Soil Conservation,
which provides technical assistance in the plan-
ning, application and maintenance of conser-
vation programs.
The district is governed by five elected lan-
downers who make up the board of directors. The
present board members are Robert Kassell, Zone
2; Fred Horlen, Zone 3; Ken Hazelett, Zone 4; Ken-
neth Brandenberger, Zone 5; and Louise Cren-
welge, Zone 1. Dorothy Henderson has served as
district clerk for 18 years.
Soil Conservation personnel serving Llano Field
Office are William Reeder, district conservationist;
Mike Reagor, range conservationist; and Mary
Lou Smathers, district technician and clerk.
