The buffalo was the department store of the plains Indian, supplying them with practically all their needs. When the millions of buffalo that roamed the prairies were exterminated there were a few small herds saved and those have now grown to some 22,000 in North American game preserves.“

Greer County Soil Conservation District Community Pattern and Windbreaks
Photograph of an aerial shot of community patterns of windbreaks in the northeastern part of the Greer County Soil Conservation District, Oklahoma. The back of the photograph proclaims, "Community patterns of windbreaks in the Northeastern part of the Greer County Soil Conservation District, Oklahoma. Plantings date from 1935 and are being added to each year. This area was formerly treeless, and even along the stream courses, but now – from a distance – it has almost the aspect of a wooded country. Variations in continuity and vigor of the belts is chiefly due to differences in degree of care and protection afforded the plantings – the soils for the most part being well suited for the storage of moisture."
