Description
"The Nation that destroys its soil, destroys itself." -Franklin Delano Roosevelt
Dust storms in the 1930s were so bad 'black blizzards' from the prairie even reached Chicago, DC & NYC. Grateful to FDR for 1935 soil conservation bill. 3 years later, "soil erosion in the United States had dropped 65 percent."
