('auim: of the Dust Storm* The dust stonns which have been | ragtag thrtnnfh- the middloweat fori the past (ow weeks have been the objject of much concern ami quention;ng; particularly among us folks in the hast who <W> not see how ho much dirt can !* lifted and carried through the air. I he plow is to be blamed. That is what William Allen White, editor of The Emporia (iazette, says. The dust storyn* are <*f comparatively ixvent origin. Mr. White believes that the World War put the price of wheat so high that wheat growers went out into the .prairies*, plowed up the sage sod ami sowed whetut. Came the drought of u few yours ago and the lands cultivated under the no-called dry fanning system failed to produce ami wore abandoned, loavirvg the soil without a binder ami at the mercy of the winds. The winds came and the result was the pitiless sweeping of the loose soil into the air ami away to distant state^. From Colorado comes an As&tx iated Press dispatch which boars out that theory h ifty years ago we are reminded, resentful cattlemen told the southeastern Colorado homesteader: "This buffalo grass should never be. plowed. 1 he land will just dry up and the* wind will, blow it away, and you w ith iL" Farmers are now seeing that/pYediction come true. The wind hass blown part of the lan<l away, but the homesteaders, many of them now substantial citizens, stand with their fVet firmly planted on their wind battered property and prepare for rehabilitation. Modern agricultural experts side with the old timers and agree much of the land never should have U-en plowed. One county agent today described a complete "rest cure" for two or three years us the only hoi>e for the dry farm lands of that region whose top soils have Ix-cn hurled as high as three miles into the air- by terrific winds for three weeks. That is a queer situation, if true, and the . above theories sound a.plausible as arty we have seen alvanced. We expanded our agricultural production beyond reason, a tewyea rs ago. just as we expanded o: m ikinds of production. By bringing antler cultivation more land than we needed, we helped to gi\e ourse -.es! a farm depression which today is re-l quiring the most heroic measures. Then, as if that were not enough, high winds ami dry weather carnitine to ruin the land which we unwisely plowed. Out of it all we ought at least to get a new comprehension of the proper way to use our natural resources. rj. Fow lands have ever been as blessed with sudh resources as America. Fertile soil, great forests, mineral de[x>sit.s?they were here in seemingly limitless abundance, and we lot them puzzle us. We got into the habit of moving in on them en masse and letting the lucky first comers use them as they pleased. That worked all right for a while. Now it is exacting a penalty. The dust storms are forcing us to learn that unwise exploitation of the resources has to be jxiid for by t-he . nation as a whole. We can use our resources as individualists, but eventually we have to foot the bill as coiiectivists. Champion Egg-Eaters ( olum-bia. May ii.?Seven able-bodied members of the University of!
