Cartwright, District Ranger U. S. Forest Service) Motorists passing through the Piedmont of South Carolina today see mostly green frests, grain fields and improved pastures. Herds of fat purebred beef or dairy cattle graze on lush grass. New homes line the highways. Neat, permanent type fences are evi dence that landowners are invest ing heavily now for a future that is secure. Yet twenty-five years ago this same area was at the lowest ebb of a cotton economy that was failing because it did not provide any protection to the land. Characteristically the Piedmont roads folow the tops of ridges. Here sheet erosion scalped much of the surface but left some sandy top soil on the flatter areas. With the changes in land use most of these lands have been brought back into productivity. Where the highways dip down off of the ridges to cross streams a thoughtful motorist might wond- at the wide swamps that border the streams and are inundated with hard rain or moderate wet spell. Once these were fertile cul tivated fields and pastures tra versed by streams that kept with in their deep channels. Kings Creek, Indian Creek and Duncan Creek are examples familiar to all Newberrians. The forester, the logger, the pulpwood operator, the farmer, the hunter, all those who leave the highways and traverse the slopes and hollows can read the story of the swamps. It is writ ten in outlets from road ditches, terrace outlets, broken terraces, abandoned roads, old cotton rows, each concentrating runoff water into a channel on a steep slope. The gullies that resulted are al most unbelievable. It is as though the soil just dissolved like salt or sugar. As the gullies deepened, the sides caved in in huge chunks, creating dams that held for a lit tle while and then flowed as mad down the channel. The creek chan nels filled up with mud and the streams spread, out over the bot tomlands. Now, neither tho gullied slopes nor the bottomland swamps are agricultural land. Instead, with fire protection and good forest cutting practices, the old gullies are largely healed and only a small percent^ of them are still active. National Forest lands in the Enoree District demonstrated how lands, once considered to have lit tle value, could be reclaimed. Where cotton failed, forests are succeeding. The job of healing the erosion is accomplished along with the production of a very valu able timber crop. Now hundreds of thousands of acres of Piedmont H. L. Shealy, 4.2 acres, $420.(Kh Hance I.

Mr. Blalock was em ployed as teller in the Newberry County Bank before joining the Kirk company. forest land is being managed un der good forestry practices by pulpw r ood and lumber companies, as well as by smaller land owners. Even the farm woodlot is getting better care. But the work is not complete. Too many private timberland own ers still cut destructively. Too many people are still careless with fire. Not all farmers follow good agricultural practices. But public opinion is strong for conserva tion. That is what will win the battle.
