ROWAN FARM GLEANINGS By W. G. YEAGER County Agent We are told that the biggest loss in our agriculture is not from the low price of our farm crops but from the loss of our farming capital, the soil itself, a loss that cannot be repair ed in several generations. Mr. H. H. Bennett, Soil expert for the U. S. Bureau of Soils has made some observations along this line that are worth passing on to our readers as follows: Land improvcrishment and land destruction by excessive erosion have come to be recognized as an agricul tral problem of sinister and wide spread importance. The agricultural authorities of a large number of states have recently declared that this form of wastage is the most serious problem confronting the users of land. Erosion has modified the surface of the earth more than the com bined activities of volcanoes, earth quakes, tidal waves, tornadoes, and all the excavations of mankind since the beginning of history. But little effort is required by thinking peo ple, seeing clearly through their own eyes, to satisfy themselves that here is a force whose destructive ness exceeds all possibility of hu man comprehension. Take the region of the Piedmont plateau, extending from Alabama to New York city comprising 60 000,000 acres of land: Surveys indi cate that 6 5 per cent of all the land 'that has ever been cultivated within it has lost from foor to 18 inches of its soil and subsoil. The original depths of the regional topland soil was about four to eight inches. A soil survey of a South Carolina pied mont county shows that 297,000 acres, or 5 0 percent of the total area of the county, has lost its sur face soil since the clearing of the land. When this layer is gone, the far I mcr*s principal capital is gone. The material below is too poor in count less instances for profitable produc tion, even when prices are good. We cannot build it back after it is gone. It takes nature not less than 400 years to build one single inch of the priceless topsoil of some of our im portant types of farm land as for example the Shelby loam of Mis souri and Iowa, an important type of corn belt soil. This we have learned by separately measuring the rate of soil losses under continuous corn and under continuous grass, recognizing that soil under a good sod of grass closely approximates the condition under which lfature builds soil. It takes just seven years under continuous corn in northern Miissouri for one inch of the Shelby loam to wash off land having a sloap of about four feet in a hundred and only one year to re move the same depth from land slop ing eight feet in a hundred. In other words, on that soil, which originally produced in good years 75 bushels of corn per acre, man now is wasting in from one to seven years what nature took not less than 400 years to build. The average depth of the soil on the average slope of the region is about seven inches, and the clay below, which is reached by eros ion proceeding under the present sys tem of farming in from seven to forty nine years, produces in a good year and nothing in the poor crop years, only about 20 busheis of corn per acre. Subsoil farming is a degraded type of farming. The land itself is degrad ed. The poverty I have seen on these lands stripped of their fecund topsoil is depressing beyond description, pov erty is sometimes seen on good land, but it is only exceptionally. I am re ferring to conditions that existed prior to this present ecomic depress ion, such, of course, as can but in tensify the situatior. Our soil is our most priceless as set, and is likely to continue to be. Marvelous as has been the discov eries of chemistry, there yet remains to be manufactured upon a purely synthetic basis one single major food product. It is unsafe to make predic tions relating to future discoveries, but all evidence points to the pro bability of the soil continuing to be the primary source of the principal food and raiment of mankind. We must have determined leadership, de termined workers and without delay far-reaching, practical national, state, county, community and individual programs and cooperation. Much poor land must go back to timber or per manent pasture. If these things are not done it is not going to be long until the slanting rays of decline will begin to fall distressingly upon the agricul tural lands of America. -5 Subscribe to The Watchman. ROLL-YOUR-OWN REVIVAL SEEN AS TAX BYPRODUCT -5 Some Hold It Likely Step If Cigarette Levies In crease; Federal And State Incomes Would Drop. -J Washington.—Government special ists have begun to wonder whether taxing authorities are riding a good horse to death in the matter of levies on cigarettes, particularly in sales tax es by States, and whether the contin uing increase in the burden portends revolutionary changes in merchandis ing methods. There is obviously no danger that the industry will be destroyed by tax ation, but there is a potential revival of the roll-your-own practice in the offing, as a means of eliminating some of the taxes that cigarette consumers now are required to pay, directly or indirectly. The factor that has brought the question of taxation to the fore is the promised development in mechanical roll-your-own devices. Trade advices received in the Government are to the effect that a real drive to popularize their use is getting under way. Wheth er it will succeed in cutting into the ready-made cigarettes sales can not now be foretold, but the fact remains that tobacco for use in roll-your-own methods bears a lot less tax. The tax which the cigarette must carry is $3 per 1,000 under a Federal levy, plus an additional amount of from one cent to five cents among twenty-four States in the Union. In seven other States similar levies are in prospect for the coming sessions of the Legislatures. The roll-your-own devices have this fact with which to start: The Federal levy on the type of tobacco used by them to make 1,000 cigarettes would be slightly more than fifty-one cents. There would be a sales tax in only a couple of States. This calculation of the tax is based on the trade practice of using 2.84 pounds of tobacco per thousand cig arettes. So the specialists here say that the difference is one substantial en ough to cause many persons to con sider it in hard times. And besides, there is the novelty of the thing to helD start it off. From the standpoint of the Federal Government any switch from the con sumption of cigarettes means a reduc tion in revenue from tobacco taxes, because the chief item of income in that group is the levy on cigarettes. In the last fiscal year, for example, the revenue from the Federal tax on cigarettes reached the total of $3 59, 816,000. The Federal Government has no figures on State collections, but it is known that the combined collections by States exacting- a payment in sales of cigarettes exceed $100,000,000, and with each additional State that turns to this tax to augment its revenue the total grows. —-1 DOLLAR DAY WILL BE HELD HERE ON 16TH OF OCTOBER -5 Merchants of Salisbury and Spencer will hold Dollar Day tomorrow, Oct. 16th, according to a decision of the Salisbury-Spencer Merchants Associa tion at a recent meeting. This trade event is always welcom ed by the buying public as the mer chants at that time offer for sale some of the outstanding merchandise at lowest possible figures. Coming at this time of the year, when fall buying is in vogue, it is be lieved the buying public will take ad vantage of the numerous bargains of fered. Practically all the stores in Salis bury and Spencer will participate. Thousands of customers are expect ed to avail themselves of this oppor tunity to purchase merchandise at the lowest possible prices and the bargain shoppers are assured of money-saving purchases. -5 $S 0,000 FIRE Greensboro.—Fifteen hundred bales of cotton were destroyed by a fire that swept through the J. E. Latham com pany’s warehouse here. Damave to the cotton and building was estimated at $50,000. Origin of the blaze was un determined but the firemen Felt certain the fire originated in the cot ton and not in the brick warehouse. The w^ehouse was 75 feet wide by 200 long. It was a total loss. Forest Fire Spread By Blazing Rabbits Reno.—Rabbits have been added to Nevada’s fire hazards. Fire fighters who battled a twenty mile blaze on Peavine Mountain re ported here that much of the rapid spreading of the fire was caused by rabbits running with fur ablaze from the burning areas through the brush setting new fires. -c_ Chokes On Talcum Powder And Dies -5 Morris, 111.—The pink and white box that lay on a chair beside Thom as Cassidy’s crib intrigued the curios ity of the 14-month-old baby. He paused in his gurgling and kick ing to regard it. Then straining for ward he managed to touch it with his chubby hands. A little more straining and he pulled it over into his crib. The box opened as it fell. Baby Thomas was enveloped in a cloud of talcum powder and choked to death. 0? I got constipated, g 1 I would get dizzy 1 and have swimming i in my head.
