Soil Conservation
District News
A. A. Wells, H. F. Fitts and Mrs
Pearl Blankenship of the Mill
Creek Conservation Group and
Glenn Roberts and Mrs. Sue Glov-
er of the Anti Conservation Group
have recently signed cooperative
argeements with the District.
These cooperators will receive any
assistance the District may have
available. The agreements include
the conservation practices neces-
sary to control erosion and at the
same time restore or maintain the
soil fertility. In most cases it will
require 5 or more years to apply
all these practices.
Uncontrolled outside water will
ruin your field terraces, is the ex-
perience of H. F. Fitts of the Mill
Creek Conservation Group. Fitts
has a cultivated field lying below
a 15 acre drainage area. All water
of this drainage area was coming
down against his field terraces and
during the heavy spring rains his
terraces would break. To remove
this menace, with the assistance of
a Soil Conservation Service Engi-
neer, a diversion terrace was stak-
ed. Fitts is now building this ter-
race which will divert all this hill
water away from the cultivated
field. When this is completed he
will be ready to construct his field
terrace without the worry of this
outside water.

control campaign to begin March

strate its rat-killing power. De-
wey Kennedy, local Rodent Con-
trol man, says that 1080 was de-
veloped by the Grovernment and 5s
the most effective poison ever dis-
covered and will rid any place of
rats.
People who have had the poison
demonstrated on their place are
urged to get the names of all their
neighbors who want their places
treated. Anyone wanting his place
