“CONSERVATION IN MY COMMUNITY"
When I say the word Conservation what do you think
of? Every person has his own idea of what needs
conserving.
Let's take a look at Oklahoma. When this land was
new, conservation was not used. The people used the
land and its resources until they were all used up. Then
they moved to new land. When Oklahoma was a new
state the dust bowl happened because there was not
enough water or plants to hold the soil. The land just
blew away from 1890 -1930 from just 40 years of man's
abuse. The soil was nearly useless, farmers realized
that soil and water conservation were necessary to
save America.
Legislation made it possible to set up a “Save
America Campaign". Farmers learned to terrace their
fields, build diversion ditches, and farm ponds. Soon
nearly all farms were using conservation
management.
Has this made a difference in my community? You
bet it has. It has meant the difference between
prosperity and poverty. It means a better farm with a
better living and being able to afford work-saving
equipment.
My Grandpa has a good farm that shows years of
hard work. This farm belonged to his father and
through conservation and land management he has
better crops that bring more money.
Conservation's job is not over yet. We still have a
long way to go. Americans stop and think. Con-
servation can save us.
Think about our wildlife for instance; what will
happen if hunters are allowed to kill all the animals.
This is why we have game limits and fishing seasons.
There’s a song that says “this land is our land and it
is made for you and me." So it is up to us, each one of us
to keep this land a good place to live. Be careful how
you use our natural resources. Think about the people
in the future. Don’t litter the highways it makes our
land a mess. Don’t be careless with fire. A little match
can burn a giant forest.
Water and air are important to us. We need to be sure
that industry doesn’t put waste into them.
We've made a good start. If we all work together we
can keep this land a good place to live.
