Photo of Eastland County Courthouse in Eastland, TX. The courthouse is made of small, pale-yellow bricks and large stone blocks. The entrance of the building faces the right side of the photo and is made entirely of the stone blocks, which form three arches at the top of the stairs with the words "Eastland County Courthouse" carved above. Two stone plinths sit on either side of the stairs. The first floor of the building, at the same level as the arches, is also built out of stone and has a row of windows extending across the width of the building, along with another row of window below it at ground level. Above these rows and the roof of the arched entryway are more windows, creating two more rows. Between each row are lines of stone circles or shield shapes that serve as ornamentation for the building. The sections of building on either side of the entryway into the courthouse have flat roofs whose height stops a few feet short of the building sections behind them. In the center of the courthouse, behind the arches at the front, rises the tallest part of the building which has four visible rows of …

Photograph of W.A. Maples farm land. Wind strips on Contour. 4 rows of crotolaria alternating with 8 rows of peanuts on 20 acres of Texas field. Next year, Maples plans to use a 4-row strip with 2 rows of crotolaria on the outside of two rows of peas. Crop residue is from last year's strips of sorghum. Peanuts on the field last year yielded 24 bushels per acre. The 74 acre field is all planted on the contour and stripped for wind erosion. 30 acres are protected with 2 rows of peas plus a row of sorghum on each side; 5 acres with 4 row strips of peas; 19 acres with 4 row strips of sorghum; 20 acres with 4 row strips of of crotolaria. Peas and crotolaria were fertilized with 100 pounds super phospate per acre. TX-41-302.

Photograph of W.A. Maples farm land. Contour cultivation and wind strips for erosion control on peanut land. The four rows of sorghum planted alternately with 8 rows of peanuts were severely grazed and a slight amount of wind erosion is evident although it is not serious. Wind erosion control strips on peanut fields should not be grazed and tall growing vegetation should be left to afford the fullest possible protection to the sandy soils. TX-40-893-B.
