Photograph of SCS Technician A. T. Elder shows part of long taproot of this 3 year old alfalfa. Moisture was found in soil at depth of 2 inches. Elder dug down 17 inches to get plant out and moisture was still present. Area has had less than 2 inches of rain since November 1952.

Photograph showing a close-up of the cloddy condition of the soil. Soil Conservation Service technicians Ted Lehman (left) and A.T. Elder hold the clods. (See OK-10, 700). III RR 2. This photo OK-10, 701.

Photograph of SCS Technician A.T. Elder noting effectiveness of conservation tillage methods (using residue and leaving surface cloddy) in controlling wind erosion and getting good stand fo wheat. Wheat now needs rain for sustained growth, locality having enfured long, severe drought.

Photograph of SCS Technician A.T. Elder looks at part of quarter-section wheat field where surface is smooth and crusty. Fields like this blow easily and won't absorb water that's available. This "ashy" or powerdy condition results from failure to use crop residues in surface of soil and from old-fashioned tillage methods (continious one-waying or disking) that leaves surface ashy instead of cloddy.

Photograph of Ted Lehman, SCS Technician, left, digs up alfalfa plant so that A. T. Elder, SCS Technician, can show long taproot. People shown in photo go as followed from left to right: 1. Ted Lehman, SCS Technician, 2. A. T. Elder SCS Technician. The back of the photograph proclaims, "This 3-year old alfalfa sends roots far down to open up the soil for maximum water intake, break up compaction. No wind erosion here. Farmers of area are turning to alfalfa as profitable crop on blow lands. SCS Technicians Ted Lehman (left) digs up alfalfa plant as that Technician A. T. Elder can show long tap root. II RR 6-0."

Photograph of Ted Lehman and A. T. Elder, SCS Technicians, examining a cloddy field. People shown in photo go as followed from left to right: Ted Lehman and A. T. Elder. The back of the photograph proclaims, "This terraced, contoured field, having no residue to manage because of drought, has been chiseled once 8 or 9 inches deep to make surface cloddy as show here by SCS Technicians Ted Lehman (left) and A. T. Elder. There has been no blowing and even hard rain would not seal surface when soil is thus cloddy. III RR 2."

Photograph of SCS TechnicianA.T. Elder scratches surface with knife to show how crusty and powdery it is. Whole wheat crop in this quarter section was lost to wind erosion and even expense of emergency tillage was lost because such tillage is of no avail when land is in such condition.
