SOIL CONSERVATION DISTRICT
WEEK OBSERVANCE
April 17-24, 1955
E. B. Baskin, president of the
South Carolina Association of
f
Soil Conservation District Super
visors, in a letter to South Caro
lina School, ha« requested the
help of teachers and other eduea-
tors in the observance of Soil
Conservation District Week, April
17-24.
According to Mr. Baskin, “One
of the best means of impressing
upon our people the need for soil
and water conservation, and im
provement, is to work through our
children. We farmers fedl a great
obligation to pass on to our chil-'
dren a land more productive than
it is today. We should like to
feel that our children are ready to
accept the responsibilities for con
tinuing to improve the land.”
The. purpose of the observance,
as stated in Mr. Baskin’s letter, Is
to emphasize “conservation and
wise use of all our renewable nat
ural resources; soil, water, treep,
and wildlife. We also hope to
stress how locally managed Soil
Conservation Districts provide an
opportunity for all people of all
ages to help improve jthese re
sources for use by this and all fu
ture generations.”
The need for conservation was
forcefully illustrated in Mr. Bas
kin’s statement that “By 1975 we
shall have as many more people in
the United States as there are
now west of the Mississippi. This
means that production has to be
increased on the land which we
now have. There will be more con
sumers, but no more land.”
The Soil Conservation Districts
of South i Carolina were created
through traditional democratic
processes of petition, hearings, and
referenda under authority of State
Law. The members of the District
governing boards serve without
salary through “a sincere desire to
strengthen not only agriculture,
the basic industry of our country,
but also to strengthen the en
tire nation. Soil and Rs related re
sources comprise the material
foundation of our democracy, sup
plying us with food, clothing, shel
ter, and countless jobs in Indus-'
try."|;, v ^ ;"^ll r ; : . ^||||
The local soil conservation dist
rict supervisors, the local Soil
Conservation Service technicians,
and local agriculture teachers can
furnish materials which can be
used by teachers in the class
rooms in the observance of Soil
Qonaervation District Week. Spe-
materials are being‘prepared
the Soil Conservation Service,
1U cooperation with the State De
partment of Education. Teachers
are urged to contact local Soil
Conservation personnel to obtain
this material.

George W. Martin, Manager of the Farmers Ice & Fuel Co
is an enthusiastic supporter of the Soil Conservation Plan.
THE FARMERS ICE & FUEL COMPANY heartily endorses the work
being done by the Newberry county Soil Conservation District. The SCS
technicians, working with over a thousand co-operators in the county,
are doing much to bring new life to our eroded lands; to protect our
forests, water and other natural resources which have long been abused
by carelessness and lack of knowledge of proper use.
During SOIL CONSERVATION .WEEK, the work of these men of the
SCS and the work of their cooperators are deserving of the very highest
recognition.
