FORESTRY NEWS Erosion control begins at the roots, Dade, Ranger Pace County Forestry Unit, pointed this week as he emphasized the need for an ever-increasing public interest in prevention of soil erosion in this area. The Ranger pointed out that erosion control has a direct bearing on the economic pros¬ perity of Dade County. Preventing wildfores i n this area ---- and encouraging -------- „ _ . profita- ble, well - managed woodlands are tiwc programs, according to Ranger Pace, which spell better erosion control. •‘Erosion’s effects,” he said, ‘‘are highly evident in many areas of our state—muddy riv¬ ers swelling up over their banks and hillsides etched deep with ditcher. We must prevent ero¬ sion’s inroads on the topsoil of Dade County.” The County Forestry Unit head said that nature’s chief instruments in ercsion control are trees and grasses. Their network of spreading, tangled roots binds loose topsoil, holding it firm against tearing on¬ of water. The accum¬ ulation of litter on the forest floor enriches the soil and helps hold it together. “Our problem today,” he de¬ clared, ‘‘is to maintain nature’s effective bulwark against ero¬ sion as we harvest the trees, and cultivate the grasslands to provide food, clothing and shel¬ ter necessary for existence. Science, through developments in land and timber ment, is proving that man use the products of forest and field and at the same time con¬ trol erosion.” Ranger Pace said the solu¬ tion, from a forestry stand¬ point, lies in knowing how to harvest and thin woodlands cor¬ rectly, performing planned re- forestration activities and set¬ up g-ood fire prevention plans. Young Couple Weds Mr. and Mrs. G. M. York an¬ nounce the marriage of their daughter E 1 s i e o n YCrk to Franklin Baker, son of Mr. and Mrs. Carl G. Baker, Route 3, Rising Fawn.
