TREES WILL SAVE OUR
COUNTRY

The tree planting project in North
Dakota which will continue on south
to Mexico, has more value than is
apparent to our inexperienced plains
people. The forest conditions pre-
vent much soil drifting and erosions.
We are so tuned up to speed now
adays that we have to have every
thing grow up overnight, ever the
children. So really what do we gain
by it? Crying for more speed! High
ways are limited in value.
Many are the efforts made to
plant trees but no care or selection
is made about the site, thus resulting
In failure. There being so many
sloughs, coulees and pot holes scat
tered all over which could be used.
1t has been suggested that tree
planting projects on farms be en-
couraged by our Santa Claus Gov
eminent. AS relief has to be admin
istered to farmers why not allow
them to apply payment for same by
planting a variety of adaptable trees
around slough edges, in coulees and
creeks and especially around dams.
which could he placed by the hun
dreds all over Sheridan county.
These projects should be planned
so as to have a new crop OF trees
being planted, next another crop in
growing stage and the mature crop
being utilized as needed We, of this
generation may not reap much of our
rewards, such as shelter, kindling
wood, building material, fence posts
and whatever purpose wood Is adapt
ed for.
According to our State Bulletins
ON soil surveys, our valley from
M edicine Lake continuing east OF
Dagmar, thru Clear Lake and Goose
Lake, UP towards Westby was before
the glacial peiod, the channel Of
the Missouri river. This fact now is
not of SO much Importance except for
this reason. The underground water
table is just below fifty foot depth,
this depending on amount of top soil
deposit that had been left by gla-
ciers. SO when the tree roots get
down this far, Is there any reason
why our trees should not grow clear
up into the clouds? Our immense
deposits OF Ignite coal here, tell this
story Of great trees that were nativ-
es some $4,000 years ago. Can ma
ture again produce such marvellous
trees? Trees are a flood control az
ent.
Our country has taken over rough
land suitable only for grazing. Parts
OF this could be cultivated for trees
and where coulees are, dams should
be made in them and trees planted
along the s~horeline. The steep hill
sides may be terraced or deep
trenches made along the contour OF
the slopes so as to hold any run off
and trees be planted in these.
Yes, this is a fine idea, you will
say, but how is all Of this to be fin
anced? Better ask our President
Roosevelt for aid on this or s the
idea for creating unemployment for
our growing army Of forty year and
older men who cannot get work but
