On January 8, landowners will
go to the polls and either vote
for or against having a Soil Con
servation District created in OF
tawa County under Ohio law.
Various questions have been ask
ed about this proposal. The fol-
lowing answers have been prepar-
ed by the County Agent in answer
to these questions.
l. What is the purpose of soil
conservation district? 1t is a
means whereby sincere farmers
may get help to better care for
their soil as provided by an Ohio
law of 1941. 1t provides techni-
cal assistance not now performed
by any other department.
2. Why is better care of soil
needed? The majority of farm
ers are doing an excellent job of
increasing production yet still
caring for their land. In 1900 the
U. S. population was rs million.
BY 1850 population had doubled
to $50 million. 1875 estimates are
for population of ITS million.
If population doubles between
1850 and 1000 each individual will
have less to eat and wear. How
ever, if we can better care for
the soil and increase production
we may be able to maintain our
standard of living.
3. Who may take advantage of
this program? Only landowners
may vote on the proposal, but as
sistance will be lent to any farm
er outside corporation limits who
is sincere in wanting soil conser-
vation.
4. How can farmer benefit
from soil conservation district?
Technicians draw up complete
farm plans in cooperation with
the farmer. These include soil
maps, blr,eprints locating tile
lines, drainage recommendations,
land use plans or rotations, and
many others which result in high
er income with less expense and
effort.
5. What have other counties
done about organizing districts?
81 counties have taken advantage
of the law enacted in Ohio in
1941. Two other counties have
the matter pending. Good re-
ports come from farmers about
the benefits to be received.

See what you think about the
future of MinneSota'S iron mining
industry =. an industry that means
much to every worker, businessman
and farmer in the state. Here are
the facts :.
Ore shortage? In half century
l.9 billion tons of Minnesota iron
ore have been mined and shipped.
About billion tons remain. If there
were nothing else, these ores would
not last long. But that's the dark
side of the picture.
Ore abundance? If the cream"

there's still plenty of 'milk"-the

These aren't disable "aS is" in a

Competition? Whether its prac-
teal to process lean ores and taco

compete with ores from other areas.
It's cost question: though taconite,
for instance, requires very extensive
treatment, it must be produced as
