Flood Prevention Treatment

Description: Photograph of flood prevention treatment on sandstone Creek Watershed permitted Roy E. Baker to put this 16-acre bottom land field into productive use. He got five cuttings of alfalfa-1729 bales - during the dry 1952 summer. Growth for the fourth cutting was without rain. Baker says the detention dam in his pasture furnished stock water at a time when other supplies were failing.
