Photograph of the Red River flood in Gainesville, Texas. Text on the back of the photograph reads: "Gainesville, Texas. May 18, 1935. Pecan creek, one block southeast of Katy passenger station. Houses on east bank of creek at this point were flooded."

Photograph of Victor Lewis (left) and H. Hoffman, Soil Conservation Service [SCS] technician on the right, examining Bermuda grass which is making a vigorous growth in a field of hairy vetch. This was a needle grass field and out of cultivation since 1949 until the hairy vetch was seeded in the needle grass (but without seed bed preparation) and fertilized at the rate of 400 pounds of 0-20-0 fertilizer per acre. This is one method of establishing Bermuda grass on needle grass land. Where there is no Bermuda grass present, it is necessary to sod the land after the fertility has been improved with vetch and 0-20-0 fertilizer. Class VI, Soil Unit 6. TX-47-601.

Photograph of collective terrace outlet which has been sodded to Bermuda grass and fenced for grazing. The outlet was sodded in April, 1948. It is 100 feet wide and when a good cover of grass became established the field was terraced in the fall of 1949. The drainage from 25 acres of terraced land empties on this outlet. Cattle can be seen grazing on the outlet in the background. Class III, Soil Unit. 2. TX-47-599.
