Book Synopsis Erosion and Related Land Use Conditions on the Elm Creek Watershed, Texas by : Harvey Oakes
Book excerpt: Soil erosion has caused serious damage in the blackland prairies of Texas since about 1850 when the first furrow slice was turned. Definite recognition of soil erosion as a subject requiring study and action was given by the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station in 1926, when plots were established at Spur, Tex., for the systematic measurement of run-off and erosion.
