SOIL EROSION IN THE SOUTH
Other Crops Must Be Grown Than
Those Requiring Clean Culture,
az Do Cotton and Tobacco.

The following statement regarding
soil erosion in the South is taken from
the annual report Of the bureau OF
soils of the department:
I'm a study of soil erosion in the
South 1t has been found that large
areas are lost to agriculture annually
through erosion. In some states vast
areas, amounting to as much as so
per cent of the arabic land OF these
sections, have been abandoned. The
character OF the erosion varies with
the type of soil. Usually, on the
heavy clay soils. sheet" or surface
erosion is found. With increasing
proportion of sand in the soil the ero-
sion changes to the ''shoestring" type,
then TO the gully type, with rounded
edges, and finally to the gullies with
caving sides. The most rapid erosion
seems to occur in soils having layer
of silt or clay at the surface and a
substratum OF sand. This condition
usually leads to erosion of the deep
gully type, which is difficult to check
and improbable to reclaim.
"All methods for prevention and
control are based either on increasing
the capacity for absorbing the water
as 1t falls, or on decreasing the veloc-
ity of the run-off. A new method in
use in one locality is the construction
of what are known as 'christophers,'
the distinctive feature of this plan ly-
ing in the manner of disposing of
storm waters. Across an incipient
gully Is built dam, through which is
passed a sewer pipe connected with
an upright pipe on the upper side Of
the dam. Water fills the valley until
1t reaches the top of the upright pipe,
and then flows down this pipe in the
next field. The water left standing
below the mouth of the upright pipe is
gradually removed by tile drain. It
is also demonstrated in the South that
other crops must be grown than those
requiring clean culture, as do cotton,
corn and tobacco"

land farmers often say that sorghum
hay will dry up COW IL she is given
enough of it. 1t will when fed alone,
but 1t may be fed in large quantities
to advantage when balanced properly
with hay from alfalfa, sweet clover
or Spanish peanuts. Cottonseed meal
is convenient feed In Texas and Ok

ghum, millet hay and silage.
