In this county, diversion terraces
have been built on the farms of
Foster Yost, Emerson Bishoff, Ernest
Griffith, Alvin Miller, Alphonsus
Weimer and John Hafer A number
of others will be built this year.
Many more are needed where long
slopes are in cultivation.
The Soil Conservation District has
hopes of securing power equipment
to build diversion terraces and to do
other kinds of conservation work
Farmers would pay the district for
the use of such equipment, at a rate
sufficient to pay costs of operation
and depreciation Right now the Dis
trict has only small blade terracer.
When it is used, the cooperating
farmer must hire a crawler tractor
to pull it.
Where they are needed, diversions
are very necessary part of a COM
plete soil conservation program.

TABLED A N n
i FARMING l.
A weekly discussion devoted to the
Land and Farms of Garrett County,
edited by John Carter, County Agent,
and w. w. Mace, Soil COnservatiOnist.

All of the literature on soil con-
servation is full of references to ter
races for erosion control. Since there
are several very different types of
terraces, it might be well to discuss
them briefly.
A terrace is broad shallow ditch
built across the slope to intercept
water and carry it to a safe outlet.
terraces and diversion terraces. Most
of the published material on terrac-
ing refers to the crop terraces. These
are not adapted to most local cOndi-
tons, but short explanation might
be worthwhile. Crop terraces are
used where slopes are not so steep
but soils wash easily, and where the
soil is intensively cultivated. They
are built about 80 to 100 feet apart,
and regular crops are planted on the
terrace as we'll as between them.
Crop terraces have a grade of from
8 to 6 inches for each 100 feet of
length.
These crop terraces, which usually
are called just terraces" are not so
well adapted to our conditions be-
cause most of our fields are so steep
that the terrace ridge would be too
abrupt for convenient planting, cult
walton, and harvesting of row crops.
They are most used in cotton or corn
growing sections where shorter rota-
tons are practiced and slopes more
gentle.
The other type is the diversion
terrace, sometimes called a diversion
ditch. 1t is shaped just like crop
terrace, except that the ditch slopes
may be sleeper when they are built
on sleeper hillsides When a hillside
is long enough to require more than
one diversion, they are spaced about
300 feet apart. Diversions are seeded
to grass-legume mixtures and are
not plowed except when it is neces-
sary to reseed the grass. Hay is har-
vested from the diversion so that the
ground involved is not wasted.
Diversion terraces normally have
grade of one percent, or one foot per
hundred feet. They must be built with
sufficient capacity to carry the water
that will get into them during the
heaviest rain, for severe damage
could result to land below them if
terraces overflow.
On slopes up to twelve percent, di-
versions can be built with a farm
tractor and pillow. Sleeper slopes re-
quire the use Of a crawler tractor
and terracer. A terracer is a blade
grader without front wheels. The
frame is drawn together at the front
and is attached directly to the trac-
tor or draw-b bar. Power road graders
are used in some sections where such
machines are available

Could your county provide Free
School Buses on S43,478 a year?
If so, the taxes paid by Maryland's
four Racing Associations would
provide Free School Buses for

Maryland's oldest sport, 1t is horse
racing which began in Maryland
in 174O, over 200 years ago. Mary
land racing is older than the State

Maryland's most popular sport.
Seven out of every ten Maryland

more than participate in any other
Maryland sport. Marylanders like
horses. More than any other state,
Maryland enjoys horse breeding,
