Photograph of a rock crusher operated by the Idabel CCC camp grinding lime to be used as fertilizer on fields of Soil Conservation Service Cooperators. The limestone at this place contains a percentage of moisture which permits its being ground without dust.

Photograph of a field ready for planting and trip crops. The even width strips are to b planted to tcorn and cotton, one strip planted to corn and the next to Cotton. The variable width strips are now planted to a winter cover crop of wheat which will be plowed under and planted to sowed cane as a close growing erosion resistant crop.

Photograph of planting oats on the coutour in a terraced field with a deep furrow drill. The first time though the field one end of the drill followed the ridge line of the terrace. Thw other end in the bottom of the water channel. Second time through one end of the drill is still inthe water channel.

Photograph of a highway sign five miles north of Geary erected by the camp on the north boundary of its demonstration area. OK-5451.

Photograph of contour blanklisted furrows in the foreground which are not only protecting this field but are collecting soil blowing from the unprotected field in the background. The angle which the closest man is leaning into the wind indicates its velocity. OK-5466.

Photograph of a newly completed loose rock check constructed in a pasture gully. This check represents a new type of loose rock structure for this camp area. OK-5453.

Photograph of eight cattle grazing on buffalograss from ridges in a contour ridged pasture. The back of the photograph proclaims, "Cattle grazing buffalo grass from ridges in a contour ridged pasture. This pasture was contour ridged and spot sodded to buffalo grass in the spring of 1936. Notice the cattle's apparent preference for the new grass on the ridges."

Photograph of a general view looking at contour ridges constructed in 1936, spot sodded to buffalograss, and seeded to drop seed along ridges. The back of the photograph proclaims, “A picture of contour ridges constructed in in the spring of 1936 spot sodded to buffalo grass and seeded to drop seed along the ridges. No grazing has been allowed on this field to the present time. The increased grass growth immediately above and below the contour ridges indicates moisture conservation by the pasture contours. See Okla-5456 for close-up view.“

The back of the photograph proclaims, "Rock crusher operated by the Idabel CCC camp grinding lime to be used as fertilizer on fields of Soil Conservation Service cooperators. The limestone at this place contains a percentage of moisture which permits its being ground without dust."

Photograph of a field ready for planting to strip crops. The even-width strips are to be planted with alternate rows of corn and cotton. The variable-width strips are now planted with a winter cover crop of wheat which will be plowed under and planted with sowed cane as a close-growing erosion resistance crop. OK-5459.
