What particular soil cfiservation problems do you face in you district?" One great loss of fertile soil, is with the heavy spring rains, before the frost is out, especial- ly to fields, on the slope. Many things have been tried out, such as keeping strips in grass or hay, or working the soil so as to keep stubble and other materials part- ly exposed to check the fast flow of water. Also cross-working the land. Along the lake front, many have lost acreage. Of course, un- less co-operation is used one farm- er may do much harm to another's farm.. This also applies to drain- age and a drainage machine is badly needed in this district which, would mean much to earlier seed- ing, and better grain yields.
