SOIL IS A GOD-GIVEN TRUST...

The following article on Soil
Stewardship was prepared by
the Rev. Joe E. Baker, Jr.,
Pastor of the Rising Fawn Cir¬
cuit, which includes the Meth¬
odist Churches at Rising Fawn,
New England, Cave Springs
and Byrd’s Chapel.
“THE STEWARDSHIP
OF THE SOIL”
In Psalms 24, we read that,
“The earth is the Lord’s and
the fullness thereof.” God has
entrusted to us all of earth’s
natural resources. We are de¬
pendent upon them for our
existence. Without them, the
soil being one of our greatest
resources, w? would soon die.
President Theodore Roosevelt
said, “When the soil it gone,
man must go, and the process
does not take long.”
Erosion has already damaged
millions of acres of farm land
in the United States. The area
surrounding Copperhill, Ten-
n essee is illustrative of soil
erosion in its worst stages. Poi-
sonous fumes from the copper
indutries have destroyed all of

the vegetation for miles around.
Heavy rains have washed away
precious top-soil from the
naked hillsides leaving nothing
but tremendous gullies and
ditches. Recently, the indus¬
tries have discovered a method
whereby they can capture the
fumes found useful in the ma¬
nufacture of certain chemicals,
and thereby making it possible
for the government to extend
a program of replanting the
land with grass and trees.
Dr. W. C. Lowdermilk, an
eminent student of land use in
the Bible lands has made this
statement: “Out of the land of
Mesopotamia came the stories
of the Flood and of Noah and
the Ark - of Jonah and Nineveh
- and of the Tower of Babel,

they went, cutting forests,
building homes, and planting
crops. After several hundred
years of waste and exploita¬
tion we are approaching a very
serious crisis. Since 1900 the
population of the United States
has almost doubled — from
.76,000,000 to 150,000,000. Each
year the population increases
around two million, which
means more people must have
food, clothing and housing.
In meeting the needs of our
present age, we are having to
learn how to manage the s^il
so as to produce the largest
quantity of products, and at
the same time put back into
the soil that which has been
taken out. We are learning how
to use the soil wisely. The par¬
able of the sower in the Bible
teaches us that all soils are not
the same. Some soils are more
suitable than others for crops.
The seed that fell by the way-
side, in stony places, and
among thornes did not yield a
crop, but those that fell upon
good soil did.
Some land can be used for
nothing except pasture, mea¬
dow or woodland. Sloping hill¬
sides that are too steep to cul¬
tivate would be unsuitable for
crops, but it could make excel¬
lent grazing land or forest.
Level land would be best suited
for planting crops.
Such practices as rotation of
crops, contour tillage, strip
cropping, terracing and drain¬
ing swamps prevent erosion
and improves the land. Where
these modern methods are be¬
ing used the crop yield per acre
is increasing.
In the practice of soil stew¬
ardship, the people of the com¬
munities, the school, and the
church must co-operate with
ou" local Soil Conservation Sre-
vice. We are all dependent on
the soil. Everything dies if the
soil fails to yield. “The con¬
servation of soil and the con¬
servation of souls, far from be¬
ing disparate, are worthy and
complementary goals.” Jesus
once spoke of the tragedy of
a man losing his soul, saying,
“What is a man profited, if he
shall gain the whole world and
lose his own soul?" One might
ask this question, “What has a
tiler of the soil profited if he
shall gather temporary finan-
cail gain and lose the topsoil
of his farm?’
As one clergyman has so
aptly put it, “It ought to hum¬
ble us and fill us with grati¬
tude and inspire us to a gen¬
uine stewardship to remember
that ours is a heritage of soil,
not achievement. God’s good¬
ness is there in soil, minerals,
plants and animals.”
Therefore, it behooves each
of us to do his part in caring
for the soil and using it wisely.
We are stewards. The soil is a
God-given trust. We have the
opportunity now of showing
ourselves good stewards of the
soil by USING IT AS A SA¬
CRED TRUST.
