Meh. lo "When raindrops hit the ground they either enter it. being absorbed by the soil, or collett on top of the ground and move off over the stir-' face in the form of surface runoff." R O. Cole. Purdue university mteusion poll conpertbitlon specialist. told a group of Indiana farmers recently. “On rolling lend thia snrfa< e run off results in tbe movement of large amounts of soil when the surface is unprotected. The amount of soil erod- d from a slope varies with the soil type, amount of erosion that has already occummed. the length of slope and the type Os cover," Col* brought out. “If there has been very little eroeion and moat of the top soil | la still Intact the amount of soil loss will be much leas than where , the erosion has progressed to a more advanc ed stage.
