Erosion by water and wind is
by far our most widespread and
serious con servation problems,
A. R. Carson, chairman, agri-
cultural sterilization and con-
servation Palmer county COM
mittee, said recently.
Some form of erosion con-
troll is needed in almost every
farm he commented, and
that is why agricultural con-
servation program offers such
a wide variety of practices for
attacking the problem.
Local as we'll as national
conservation needs are recog-
nized in the programs devel-
opment and no matter what the
individual farm conservation
problem, ACP cost-sharing US
ually can be worked out to
help meet the need. .
In some instances, the chair
man explained, erosion control
calls for the construction of ter
races, diversion bitches or
dikes In others, storage-type or
check dams may be the best
solution On most of the land
subject to such problems, how
ever, vegetative cover is the
most effective, practical, and
economical means of control
ling erosion and resulting silt
alton; ACP assistance may be
obtained in establishing or ex-
tending the life of such cover.
