The measures planned Include the planting of 1,000,000 acres of trees on New Zealand farms and the consolidation of vast areas of Crown and unfarmed I lands into national parks where ; scientific steps to check erosion will be taken. In the highlands of the South Island nearly 3,O0O,C00 acres of grazing land have lost 25 to 50 per cent of the topsoil through erosion and over a further 2,-200,000 acres more than 50 per cent already has been lost. Thee ligures do not Include severe losses of soil on cropped down-lands and plains by wind erosion. Highly productive sheep and cattle country on the east coast of the North Island also is severely eroded. The country con sists chiefly of small but steep hills which did not erode in their natural state, but when the forest growth was cleared and replaced by grass the country did not hold. Hundreds of slips and landslides appeared and the topsoil was washed down Into the rivers and out to sea. On the west coast of the Nor,th Island also large areas of high-rainfall dairy, country have been virtually abandoned because of extreme erosion. A major project 4n the soil sonservatlon program will be recuperation treatment of 8,000,-000 acres of high country in "the South Island. This will be achieved by tree planting, fire control, spelling, seeding, fencing and subsequent control of grazing to within reasonable limits. A similar con servation program will be undertaken over several million acres JUST UKE mt" AI ft MiPi im chum m - .-V PLAYING CARDS CONGRESS. GAINSBOROUGH . . .
