S. 12-111. 20-61 ' Phone 327 Sheet erosion, the unendtitg process which steals a part of the topsoll every time there Is rain enough for water to run downhill, is a major cause of land depreciation, H. H. Bennett, soil scientist of the United States Department of Agriculture, said at the annual meeting of the American Forestry association at Ashville, N. C. Sheet Erosion Widespread. "Sheet erosion Is much more wide spread than gully washing, but it Is more gradual and less noticeable," Mr. Bennett said. "Excessive washing has virtually destroyed more than 17,000,- 000 acres of formerly tilled land in this country, but there Is a vastly larger area whose surface soil is slowly but constantly being Washed thinner and thinner by every rain. The washing away of the topsoil is rapidly lessening the productivity of our |pnd. "Our country-wide yields are not Increasing, even with all tfye benefits ' of research and extension services directed toward this end; indeed, crop s yields are decreasing in many local!-* ties. The better soils are largely In s use. In many parts of the country the area of these Is being diminished through the evil of erosion; that is, more aqjl tnore of these lands are ber.;'.'! lng converted Into Inferior lands." ! * Land impoverished from overcropping frequently can be made to produce profitable crops through the use fertilising^ fckd • soil-improving McHenry FOR SALE ON LIBERAL TERMS-" Good 178-acre farm oh good road, 1 mile to new proposed cement road, 4% miles to three good towns with milk plants; all buildings newly painted and improvedgood 7-room dwelling; good large basement dairy bam; cement silo; new tool house, 24x40; milk house; hog house; hen house; well; windmill; cistern; fair fences; all in one body, including 22 2 50'goot* dairy cows, some Guernseys, 23 ?

The topsoil censing the essential elements for pUrtt growth and when this soil Is eroded away, the subsoil in the majority of cases fails to produce as good crops as the original topsoil and often is worthless, the bureau of chemistry and soils has found. Methods of Prevention. Mr. Bennett outlined some of the work being done by the Department of Agriculture in the study of erosion and methods of preventing It. He suggested better Uuui utilization, better protection of cultivated slopes with terraces and other means, and the use of certain lands for forests as preventives of soil flrofiion. A far-reaching, practical, national program of soil protection and^etter adjustment in land usage 1^\an immediate need, he said. • ' Thorough study of erosion problems Is now being made by the department at eight regionaV experiment stations established during the last two years. ^These stations, which eventually may number 20. are established on farms were erosion is a serious regional problem, and are for studying methods of erosion control and of holding on the land more of the rain water. A number of the. states are carrying (p supplementary work on erosion. Heli«« Prwlscliea The United States is the only country which has developed helium, it has a monopoly on its use so far. However, helium is likely to be found wherever oil is found; for instance. In Alaska, Russia and Siberia. The richest helium section i£ in northern Texas and in the surrounding area of 200 or 800 miles, taking in Kansas and Oklahoma. It is found in this section in quantities sufficient for extraction. - ' 7"* ; -v.-,,; -v : ••• Gold Dolbn The smallest gold coin made for circulation in the United States is the $2.50 gold piece, the dollar gold piece not having been issued for general circulation since 1889.
