THE RELATION OF WILD-LIFE CONSERVATION T0 EROSION CONTROL

A Radio talk by Ernest G. Holt. chic! Forester U. S. soil conscr- ‘iation rel-vice, La. Crosc. Wisconsin.

Folks, I have travelled several hundred milcs to get. to talk to you today, and I didn't collie down here to Chicago to work off any par- ablesl But I do wont. to point a paradox. Not until a. dark cloud rolled up out of the West to ob- scure the sun over half a continent did the people of this country see something that vitally concerns ‘ everyone of us.

i‘ You know, we Americans think , we are pretty smart. and we are ‘quick to resent anything being put lover on us. Yet. we are the vic- tims of a mighty grim joke. For three hundred years we have been putting over on ourselves someth- ing which, had it been attempted by another nation, would have brought an instant declaration of war. I refer to the most colossal destruction of good agricultural land that the world has ever wit- nessed in a like space of time. Although much of our land has known the plow for scarce a gen- eration, we have practically ruined for further crop use no less than 100 million acres. Could this wasted land be retored and di- vided into farms of 160 acres each.- it would support 625 thousand Of course, this hasn't but it". is still equivalent to driving from

merit in the United States Army Had half of our army been driven out of France, we would have considered our defeat decisive. yet we have looked with complaccnce upon this tragedy that has befallen, and ts still befalliiig. such a tremendous number of our farmers. This dc- structlon of our most basic natural iesource is continuing at the rate of more than 100 thousand acres a year.

These du~t storms that have at

But these men can not do the job alone. They may have the scien- tific skill and be able to demon- strata the proper technique, but. the really important part ls up to you who own the land. How about that rough corner on your farm, where the gullies have started? What about those fence lines. as clean as your parlor floor? What. about that creek bank that Y0"? cattle have Grated until not (W611 8 willow can get a foothold? Get shrubbery back in those places. and a little grass for nesting cover, and see how quickly your farm can boast something in the way of wild-life besides grasshoppers and potato bugs.

"The Scarlet Letter" is frequently cited as the No 1 American title. Hawthornes “Marble Faun" was originally ‘Transformation; olr the Romance of Monte Beni". Steven- sonls “Treasure rland" first ap- peared as The Sea. Cook" and attracted no attention whatever. When Charles Major's “Edward Caskoden" was changed by the publisher to “When Knighthood was in Flower" the sale of the book increased tremendously. Ollver La Farges Pulitzer Prize Novel "Laughing Boy" was once ‘Hunger People". At the insistence of the publishers Ethel Bolleaus “Turnip Tops" became “A Gay Family" and Vardis Fisher's "Those Strange Bridwells" became "Dark Bridwell.“

Neither A. P. Herbert nor his publisher could think of a suitable titilc of his satirical novel of the English divorce problem. In dc- speratlon he called his publisher on the telephone to say that "Holy wedlock" was the best he could do.

regard to their composition or steepness.

What has all this to do with i wild-life conservation? Well. I'll ak you one. When you have t0 shut every door and window‘, or

wear a damp handkerchief over , your riosc to escape suffocation by t dust, what do you suppose A e

when you let your soil wash away from beneath you feet. what of the creatures dependent on that soil for their homes and their food supply? Without some sort, of vegetation, animal lifc simply can not. cxlst, even in the ocean.

If any of you are as grey-headed as I am you won't have ally trouble recalling the time when we had plenty of good shooting and good fishing. Where is it now! In an- swering that. question, for heaven's sake don't pull that old worn-out alibi that the “vermin” got the game and fish. When conditions are made impossible for game, they are also made impossible for so- oiled vermin. The truth is. our game arid fish resource; have been depleted for the same reason that our soil resources have suffered such heavy damage from erosion.

We cut down our woods. plow up our pralres, even bum the last miserable weed out of our fence corners; then we blame the disapp- earance of our game bircisonthe hawks and owls. We rip the protect- ing vegetation from our hillsides and tum thousands of tons of silt into our streams; and when the trout disappear we go out and shoot the herons and kingflshers. Eamcstly now, is this logic? Whatever it is, it is wholly uliwientifie.

Over iii Iowa. there's a. chap named Errington who has been prying into the personal affair: of quail for years. Only a. couple of weeks ago he told mc his rascal-cites have shown that it‘ a. certain quail milge is capable of wintering a dozen birds, only a dozen will silrvlve even though 50 start. Con- verscly. 10 or 12 starting the wiziter will very llkcly all survive. And n either oaxe the number oi pre- dators present, or their entire absence, is without effect on the carrying capacity of the range.

Ralph King, another friend of mine, who works on ruffed grouse: up in Minnesota, has found that even 16 great horned owls living on his observational area did not. cut the grouse population below the carrying capacity of the range, and that lessening the number of pre- dators has no effect in raising the grouse population.

Gentlemen, this simply means that if we are ever going to get anywhere with a wild-life restor- ation program, we have got to quit wasting time parsing the buck to everything under the sun and start rebuilding the habitats we our- selves have destroyed.

In this work. crosin control and wild-life ivclfarc go hand in hand. Vegetation ls essential to both. Any operation for the control of erosion, that rwtoms vegetation to our denuded land directly benefits

wild-life. But the Soil Conserv- ation Service goes farther tlzan that, and is definitely writing

wild-life cohrervntlon into its broad program of correct land uc. In
