SOIL EROSION HAS
LONG BEEN PROBLEM
Fruit Growers Offered
Valuable Assistance to
Overcome Trouble

Attention of fruit farmers hav-
ing orchards, vineyards or berry
fields planted on slOping land is
called to the fact that they may
receive technical assistance on
contour planting from the Mary
land unit of the Soil Conservation
Service with headquarters located
at College Park, by Albert F. Vier-
heller, specialist in horticulture
for the University of Maryland
Extension Service.
Mr.. Vierheller points out that
rosion has long been the problem
Jf farmers whose orchards are
planted on land that is sloping
When water runs over the ground
soil losses are bound to occur and
sheet erosion, where thin layers
# soil are washed off each time
it rains, is particularly bad here
in Maryland.
In order to combat this erosion
problem many farmers are now
citing out their orchards on the
rCntOur and they report highly
beneficial results. By planting
me trees, vines or bushes on the
contour and thereby cultiyating
on the level, every row and every
cultivator mark acts as a small
dam holding the moisture and
the soil on the hillside. Under
such a system water never gets
the chance to concentrate and
cause gully and sheet erosion.
Mr. Vierheller advises anyone
contemplating the planting of q
new orchard, vineyard or berry
field, or any other person who has
had trouble with erosion, to get
in touch with him or with his
county agent SO that a technician
may be obtained to study the prob
lem.

Defense Program Increases
Demands Upon Libraries

problems, according to reports reach

and college Libraries reveal unusually
heavy demands for library service
traceable to defense activities or in
terests.

and technical books and pamphlets TOP

INJURY CLAIMS SHOW
UPWARD TREND DUE
TO DEFENSE ACTIVITY

The 1880 injury and occupational
disease claims filed in August is the
largest number for any one month
since October, 1887 Included in the
number were 81 fatalities and the
time loss to workers due to all in
juries was 1911 days.
The steadily rising level of acci-
dents during the past few months is
a reflection of the heavy increases in
industrial employment due to defense
preparations. This increase In eX-
posure is believed to be heavier than
the increase in accidents, although
man-hours for the period are not yet
available.
The fatalities for August were dis
tributed as follows: construction Ia;
metal goods 10; mining, commercial
and blast furnaces, steel works and
rolling mills, each; public employees,
6; chemicals and allied products and
clay, glass and stone products, 5 each;

SAFEGUARD STANDARDS


Labor, through it's years of organ
lied and united effort, has established
social and economic standards which
it seeks to safeguard during the emer-
gegncy which faces the nation. We
maintain that the ten million who
make up the army of the unemployed
should be accorded an opportunity to
work and serve the nation. SO long
as this great army of unemployed is
available for service, it is foolish for
unthinking people to suggest that
standards social and in
dustrial established through collec-
tive bargaining and legislation, should
be William Green.
