Many of our thousands of gull
lies r going about their busin-
ess of stealing our precious top
soil and subsoils year in and year
put without being noticed. They
have been here for years and we
have accepted them and to a great
extent have left them to carry on
their destructive activity I'M
hampered. So as a thief in the
dark, these ruthless gullies keep
on depriving us of our most val
ued resource without hindrance.
Let us consider a relatively
small gully which would be g
typical example of thousands OF
the same size throughout our
county. Let's say this gully has
the following dimensions: aver
age length 100 feet; average width
20 feet; average depth 6 feet.
These dimensions give us an open
surface of about 5000 square feet
which is exposed to the action
of water from every slight sprin-
kle and heavy rain.
Experiments have shown that
gullies on the whole are eroding
at the rate of two inches per year.
This sounds as though it were
negligible, but let's see just how
much of a loss we are taking.
With this degree of erosion we
will lose about 20 cubic yards of
soil each year from each such
gully. The approximate weight
of soil lost is about IL tons per
cubic yard or about "a tons OF
soil is lost from each such gully
per year.
From these figures we a each
The Lexington advertiser. [volume] (Lexington, Miss.) 1904-1985, 1950-08-31
Just How Bad Are Our GuIIies!

determine our loss on our own
farms. If we have 10 such small
gullies on our farm our loss would
be 240 tons of soil per year; if
we have so gullies of this size,
the loss would amount to 1900 tons
each year, and so on.
All this is a loss, a dead loss,
which cannot be replaced. Our
only alternative is to stop this
theft of our soil and our liveli-
hood. Although we cannot do
this over night, there is a remedy
which will slow down this de-
struction and eventually put a
stop to it.
We can begin by planting some
sort of plants such as kudzu on
our steep gully banks which are
too steep to support other vegeta-
ton. On the lesser slopes and in
the gully bottoms we can plant
trees and other vegetation which
will form live dams and retard
our run-off of water and move
ment of soil. Although this pro-
cess is seemingly slow, each year
the soil loss will be less and even
tually u gullies will be "healed"
and we will have fertile pasture
and forest areas to take their
place which will mean greater re-
turns to us, to say nothing OF the
floods and destruction which Will
no longer plague the folks down
stream from us.
Our federal and state govern
ments are anxious to give us a
helping hand with problems such
as these. Let's contact our Holmes
County Soil Conservation District
and other agricultural agencies
who will be glad to help in any
way possible.

/ good late winter grazing and will
also Craze on through the sum-
mer and will develop into an ex-
cellent permanent pasture if not
overgrazed.
Dallis grass sown in the spring
in combination with bermuda
grass and lespedeza will also fur
nish a good permanent pasture
for late summer grazing. In es-
tablishing winter grazing with a
combination of oats and clover
or fescue and clover it Is necessary
that you break your ground and
| disc thoroughly making a good
seed bed before planting. Your
oats should be planted and fer
tilted with nitrate at the rate of
100 to $50 pounds of ammonia
nitrate per acre at the time OF
planting. Do not SOW your Grim
SON clover seed or red clover seed
in the oats until after October l..
It would be advisable to plant oats
around September 18th.
Fescue should be planted about
October list on a well prepared
seed bed and should also be nj
trated at the time Of planting just
rs you would your oats. Your la
dino or white Dutch clover may
be seeded in your fescue around
October 18th to November LIST.
In preparing land for winter
grazing or permanent pastures it
is always a good policy to apply
800 to 500 pounds phosphate per
acre and 100 pounds nitrate OF
potash per acre or 1000 pounds of
basic Stag per acre.. Most of these
materials come under PIMA pay
ments and it would be advisable
to 60 to the PIMA office before
purchasing these materials so
that you would know what pay
ments you have coming. The PIMA
payments usually run about 60 to
rs per cent of the cost of the ma
terial and also the clover seed.

NEWS and VIEWS
by e. H. r

Now is the time to begin land
preparation for fall and winter
grazing crops. Too many farmers
wait until grazing time to plant
and then do a poor job OF land
preparation and as a result get
poor results from their grazing
program.
Often this phase of cattle rails
ing is overlooked or put off until
the cattle are thin and low on
body weight before they realize
that their cattle are going to need
more roughage or pastures than
has been provided. Then it is too
late to prepare a good seed bed
and get a good growth in time to
realize a profit from their invest
ment in these pastures.
Good grazing should be avail
able when livestock require 1T,
Cattle cannot make substantial
gains on poop quality roughage
and grazing. Too many farmers
depend too many times on just
! enough feed to get the cattle
| through and do not take into con-
| sideration that pounds of weight
, lost means that many more days
| from market.
In view of these considerations
and truths, let us begin now, to-
day, here in Holmes county te
prepare our land and apply the
minerals and make good grazing
q must on every farm, be 1t large
or small. Plant at least one acre
of oats per 1000 pounds of ANNA
, weight to Craze these oats. Seeo
