Despite those pictures of the

wealthy nation. That isn't going to be
true very much longer.
Few Americans are aware that
the nations fresh-water supply might
be in serious trouble by the end of
the century unless immediate, large
scale measures are taken to conserve
this irreplaceable resource, protect
its purity and develop new supplies"
the August 1861, report OF Population

"By the end of the century, used

difference of the Republican-con-

No funds were appropriated to con-

the hoppers from cutting into the
income from our major industry.

is with US at all times. Unless we are
aware of it and have funds to cope
with it continually more than ''prob-
lem" will have to be faced.
Wren, instead of acting like small
bore Ezra Taft Benson, should look
to the payments made to ranchers
for not grazing cattle and the soil
bank payments. Perhaps some of
those funds should be diverted from
private pockets to improve the condi-
ton of the ranges.-FS

The cost sharing with Montana
farmers of the initial layout of strip
farms and alternate year payments
for stubble mulching the idle LAND
came under attack by Montana Com
missioner of Agriculture Ed C. Wren,
Monday, in a letter to the U. S. Sec
retary of Agriculture Orville L. Free
man.
Wren would eliminate these sun
necessary cost-sharing features
and divert the funds to fighting Mon
tana's grasshoppers plague.
Recent meetings with farmers and
ranchers indicate, that there should
be more individual effort ON the part
of Individual farmers and ranchers-
In this connection l would propose
that grasshopper control be incor-
porated as practice under current
cost sharing Agriculture Conserva-
ton Program since the devastation
of the rangeland by grasshoppers will
ultimately lead to a land conservation
problem.
Wren, in the letter cleared
through Gov. Don Nutter's office,
places the blame for the grass
hopper problem exactly where it
should not be because the strip
farming and stubble mulching pro-
grams do control grasshoppers.
The mulching of the wheat straw
into the soil, according to farm ex-
to collect and prevent the blowing
away of the soil but the repeated
cultivating destroys the egg matches
to a large extent.
The devastation of the rangeland
by drought and hoppers was not
caused by the strip farm and stubble

WATER POLLUTION. A
MAJOR PROBLEM

Right now water pollution is one
of our major problems, pollution both
from industrial wastes and sewage.
Unless the country becomes more
aroused over the pollution problem,
the nation as whole is in for the
water shortage tragedy that afflicts
many other nations, such as Spain
and North Africa.
There are many parts of western
United States where water is being
mined to such am extent that re-
serves have practically been ex-
hausted and it is not certain how
much longer agricultural irrigation
can be permitted.
Ground and water supplies are
now very limited in parts of Ken
lucky, West Virginia, Illinois, In
diana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee,
Georgia, Missouri, Oklahoma, Arkan-
