Hardgrave,- a disabled veteran. The idea of remaking a farm in a day was the same here as in the humid East, but the con- ditious were different. The supervisors of three Verde Valley districts -- Oak - Creek; Bridgeport, and Camp Verde-- picked out what they believed was the niost farmed-out, run-down, depleted place in the entire valley, - as offering the most worthly chal- lenge to the -ingenuity of soil con- servationists. This farm also offer- ed a good stage on which to ac- . quaint a large number of people with 'the importance of botli soil and water conservation and with the methods best suited to valley land in Arizona and similar areas. Seventy-three manufacturers and dealers in tractors and farm equip- ment agreed to donate the use of their machines, and the job de- veloped into one of the largest farm-machinery demonstrations in the history of the Southwest. Con- tractors offered to donate the use of their equipment. Supply houses would furnish® needed materials. Farmers, laborers, high school youths and Boy Scouts volunteered to work, Carloads of equipment and materials were shipped into the area from as far away as 800 miles. The district conservationist and his technical staff got busy with plann- ing. Fach man and boy among the. ~volunteers knew every detail of his job as a result of tedious briefing in advance by the technical staff and the district supervisors. A lone wo- man tractor operator did a master- -ful job of land leveling. Up came a model farm. At day's "end it had bench terraces, and an irrigation ditch lined with water- saving concrete by machinery which did 600 feet of lining in twenty minutes. Another difch was lined by a spray gun and a third was oil- lined. THEr& was a large storage reservoir scooped out by a giant bulldozer, designed to save time and labor in irrigating and to provide fishing and other recreation. The course of the Verde River had lit- erally been changed by_the same bulldozer, and given steambank protection against badly eroding land. : Spectators saw just about cvery- thing done 'that is needed on an irrigated farm, such as plowing and floating of ficlds, installation of | that belongs to | concrete and corruguated iron pipes and irrigation structures, They saw post-hole diggers at work, a me- chanical trencher, a sprinkler irriga- tion system installed, and siphons. House and barn were given a coat. pared, an orchard planted, rose and other flowers set out around the house. The owner, a veteran wounded at Metz, in the wink of a day saw done a complete conservation job that would have taken him ten years to. accomplish alone.--From "Big Hugh": "The Father of Soil Conservation," by Wellington Brink.

Not as colors. fade, or as beauty fades in a face, but as a day past midafter- noon begins to fade away toward 'evening. The peak is past, the lush and cager growth that surges out of spring reaching. toward matur- ity. Much of the flowering is ac complished and the fruiting is at hand. The leaves, whose prime function is growth and the sus- tenance of growth, begin to look a little worn; their job is all but done for another year. The grass heads ripen. Milkweed thickens its pods, Asters begin to bloom, and goldenrod, 'the -festoons' of carly autumn, ' You sec a more pronounced lush of scarlet in_ the sumac clumps.

Iiven the maples begin to look weary and 'dusty; their leaves have lost that gloss which was theirs when the chloro- phyll was new and full of vigor. Little signs, the lesser signals of a season's change. The green pro- ecsses are slowing down; ripening accelerates. And carliest of all to recognize this are the insects, At 'summer's peak they were loud, but with a laz§' overtone of satiety, Now they are insistently loud. The katydid and the cricket outdo the droning bumblebee. Time shortens, in their lives, and -some inner com- pulsion bids them to haste. The scason comes to late afternoon, and. sunset -approaches.
