Westfield, president of the Farmers Exposed Soils Weakened By Winter Wind and Water Northampton, March 21-With able spring weather just' around the corner, officials of the Hampshire Soil Conservation District issued 8 warning that soils exposed during winter months are subject to wind and water erosion and gave out a few tips on how to combat the danger to farm lands.

In a prepared statement issued today, officials said: "Cultivated land that does not have the protection of 8 winter cover is most subject to wind erosion. Snow will usually provide ample cover against wind erosion when it is present on ground surface. The thawing of the snow exposes unprotected soil to wind and water erosion. constant freezing and thawing of unprotected soil will result in the break down of soil structure. W'hen the soil structure is broken down the individual soil particles lose their adhesion.

Because soil particles are not bound to a larger aggregate the individual soil particles are more easily removed by wind or water. "When soils are left unprotected the winter months the force of splashing raindrops will break down soil aggregates. Soils that are tected over the winter months freeze deeper than those protected by winter cover crops that have made goud growth. "Wind and water erosion remove the soil particles, more easily where soil previously broken down the unprotected soil. the organic clay particles, "The finest particles, of the soil, silt and very fine sand are first to be removed by wind and water erosion.

The fertility of the soil is thus lessened." The Soil Conservation Service provides technical assistance to farmers in controlling wind and water erosion. Hampshire County technicians Hermon Goodell and Edward Konleczy have assisted farmers in establishing 11 miles of diversions and terraces 300 acres of contouring and strip cropping to control water erosion. Five acres of windbreaks have been established to control wind erosion. Trees and shrubs for wind break planting are made available to farmers of Hampshire County by the Hampshire Soil Conservation District. The district, supervisors are Henry Renouf Belchertown, Joseph Sena of Worthington and Harold Hindle of South Hadley.
