Rucker 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. The Gang’s All Here By KEITH MERRILL Do you know what a “laugh fest” is?
