SOIL STEWARDSHIP WEEK
MAY 3 THROUGH 10
The week of May 3 10 is Soil
Stewardship Week in Georgia, an
appropriate time to pause and give
some thought to all of the good
things that spring directly from
the soil. These things are beyond
counting. They include not only
the food we eat, the clothing we
wear, the materials for our homes,
but all the beauty of field and
forest, garden and grounds.
Since time immemorial man has
felt a strong tug at his heart to
ward the land and has longed to
possess it and use it. This yearn
| ing for the land and its abundance
,on this continnent played a vital
role in the exploration and devel
opment of all lands which comprise
this nation North and South as
well as East and West.
As man has leared land, broken
it and tilled it, generally, he and
the land have prospered together.
Often, however, man has been
guilty of exploiting the land. Where
ever this has happened, sooner or
later, society has suffered.
In recent years, men of America
have become more and more aware
of their responsibilities as stewards
of the land. This has brought forth
practical programs applying the
knowledge and techniques of
science to soil conservation. More
recently, the equal need for water
conservation has been recognized,
too.
Soil and water conservation is
everybody’s job. Every citizen, be
he landowner or not, should re
cognize his vital stake in the con
servation of this nation’s soil and
water resources.
You may feel that you can do
little or nothing yourself about
saving soil and water. You can at
least recognize the need for con
servation of these vital necessities
of life and give moral support to
those who practice good soil stew
ardship.
Georgia’s 144,657 Four-H Club
members study and practice re
commended s f eos of good soil and
water conservation in many ways
according to Tommy L. Walton,
state 4-H Chib leader, and many
of there 4-H’ers will take an active
part in Georgia’s observance of
Soil Stewardship Week. Many of
these club members carry such
projects as soil and water conser
vation and management, land judk
ing, forestry, pasture management,
crop production, and wildlife and
nature study.
In addition to carrying projects
related to soil and water conser
vation, 4-H’ers study these subjects
in summer camps such as the
north and south Georgia forestry
camps and the wildlife and naval
store camps held each summer.
Soil Stewardship is indeed the
business of everyone.

Flashing Strip Protects
Roof From Ice at Eaves

The Asphalt Roofing Industry
