WILDLIFE AND THE SOIL BANK
LEON J MC DONALD
Assistant State Conservationist
One farm crop not in surplus will
be increased by the soil bank That
farm crop Ls wildlife says Ray
Valker state conservationist for
the soil conservation service in Ok-
lahoma Every soil bank will add
omething to food and cover for
wild birds and mammals that in-
habit farmlands
The conservation reserve part of
the soil bank offers cost-sharing for
practices to improve wildhle habi-
tat But whether land goes into the
long-Item conservation reserve or
is withdrawn from cultivation only
one year under the acreage re-
serve it will have an opportunity
to grow cover and food plants use-
ful to wildlife Walker points out
Even the annual weeds that nor-
mally appear on untitled fields are
stable foods of such species as quail
pheasant--i and doves Or cover
crops planted to prevent erosion
being left unharvested will furnish
nesting cover and food
The conservation reserve offers a
particular opportunity for interest-
ed farmers to increase beneficial
sk Uhl° without disadvantage to
farm income Walker believes
In the conservation reserve soil
bank acres may be used specifically
to produce wildlife At the soil bank
pay window wildlife hind com-
mands exactly the same return in
annuai rental as grassland or wood-
land ii addition farmers may harvest
or Fell their wildlife crop during the
contract term a privilege that does
not apply to grass or trees under
not-real conditions For once the
oft-beard argument that farmers
cannot afford to use their land for
Wildlife does not hold Walker says
In the conservation reserve pro-
duction of farm game fur animals
waterfowl songbirds or fish has
the same dollar value as any alter-
native use for the land
Cost-sharing for establishing the
new land use and applying conser-
VCOM practices on wildlife land is
scaled to the same basis — 80 per-
cent of cost — as where the farmer
cliooses to plant grass or trees
The soil batik PrOrTaill Contains
three practices for Conservation re-
serve acres designed especially to
protect and produce wildlife 'They
are:
Establishment and management
of cover specifically beneficial to
wildlife
Water and marsh management to
benefit fish and wildlife
Coastructing dams or ponds for
fish
Whether a farmer uses one or
more of these special wildlife prac-
tices or devotes his reserved ac-
res to pasture grasses trees or
water storage farm game or oth-
er wildlife will benefit
Whatever their ultimate use the

-- Hundreds of years ago Insurance
e- was often a one-man businesR: One
3- Man would insure a ship certo
's Fa y and in doing so he might lo:e
1- his fortune
Rt But in 1825 the British House Of
)c Commons looked into England's in-
) Sumner business and said this:
1- When thre's a risk the best way
1- to guard against it is to join with
)il others so that each man might
lose a little but no man can lose
r- a lot Spread the risk
le As a result insurance today is
1- a big business We have millions of
Is policies worth billions of dollars in
s- force
An insurance policy is a con-
tract The company promises to
pay you a certain sum for loss or
1" damage of the thing you insure —
1- your life your home your health
) and the like And you promise to
nay a premium for this protection
I Your policy sets out what you have
both agreed to Most of the rules
of the law of contracts apply to in-
1 surance policies
There are many types of policies
And individual policies may vary
IClieck each clause carefully Then
have the insurance man explain it
s Be sure all details of the agreement
1 are written into the policy You and
the company are in general bound
lby the written word
As a home owner you have mil-
fly risks like fire against which
- you can insure yourself Other in-
Isurable risks are theft windstorm
hail glass breakage cloudbursts
iexplosion and the like
Other household hazards cause
damage But people don't expect
I- them and may not insure against
them 'or example a tree may
fall on your house or near some
Icrossroad a car may crash into
your home
-
Sometimes eties you can make the per-
1 son who caused the damage pay
But if he has no money and nei-
ther of you has insurance you often
I must pay yourself

WASHINGTON — Rep Toby
Morris (3-Okla) said Saturday that
top government officials forsee an
fApanSiOn of the Army's artillery
range at Fort Sill Okla under an
arranizement which will protect fish
and wildlife rights
Morris made the statement after
what he called a "very favorable
conference" with Army Undersec-
retary Charles C Finucane and As- you
sistant Secretary of Interior Ross wny 1
Leffler about the controversial issue
The interior department has de-
:lied to exercise the permission

granted by Congress to turn over

But Morris sold both Finticane

the very near future"

At the press of a button execu-

leaves or brown — in card form
— into slots marked $10000-$12-

to "over $7500"
Handy said one of the reasons for
the increased demand was "The

in years past they always felt they
couldn't afford executives of the big

plowing back some profits in in-
centive plans to give these fellows

He said that in many cases he

Oklahoma believes in being good
to its less fortunate citizens
As a public official I'm proudest
of the fact we have always listened
with sympathy to needs of the aged
and ailing Our programs for these
people are far more liberal than
most states offer including many
much richer than Oklahoma
Naturally not everyone agrees
with this point of view There are
those who believe all forms of wel-
fare should be held to the barest
minimum
These people are inclined to say
"Let them do as I have done If I
could get along without help so can
they
I don't think so Not everyone is
horn with the same amount of abil-
ity and good health nor meets with
an -equal amount of good fortune
In my opinion we have a definite
obligation to make the way easier
for the sick the aged and the tem-
porarily incapacitated Without such
help ours would be a brutal socie-

under old age assistance in Okla-
homa now stands at $94 per month
and the average payment is now
$66 That means $94 is the maxi-
mum amount a single person can
draw
This maximum will be raised to
$100 when the new hospitalization
program goes into effect July 1 An
old age assistance recepient
then be insured for proper medical
care when he needs it
A $100 maximum monthly budget
can hardly be considered pamper-
ing But it is a guarantee of inde-
pendence and human dignity
Our welfare program also in-
cludes the blind dependent child-
ren and dilsabled Legislation is in
the 111411 to provide a more effec-
tive program of rehabilitation for
the disabled so a greater number
can become self-supporting
This is what most of them want
Its also cheaper in the long run
if we return more of these folks
to useful production
We are now trying to give a little
justified relief to Oklahoma's far-
mers and ranchers in the form of
elimination or at least a reduction
Congratulations

Monday March 4 1957
In the amount of tax they pay when
buying feed and seed It's been held
up by the fact nobody not even the
farmers who will benefit want to
take one dime away from the wel-
fare programs
I'm optimistic about working it
out without danger to our welfare
reccipients I feel it must be done
that way if it is to have a chance
of passing
No group has more staunch sup-
porters in the legislature than those
on old age assistance rolls This
was demonstrated two years ago
when the same issue was being de-
bated Legislators are determined to pro
tect "Aunt Minnie" and "Uncle
John"
