WHAT IS CONSERVATION? 



A definition of terms and an explanation of what conservation 

 means to the average man. 



SAVING OUR SOIL 



Shows how important soil is to many activities and to life on this 

 earth. 



ENOUGH WATER FOR EVERYONE 



Water, and the lack of water, has influenced economic develop- 

 ment and human life. World affairs today necessitate greater con- 

 sideration of how to provide adequate water supply. 



IMPROVING OUR GRASSLANDS 



Food for man, for birds, and for animals is dependent on grass- 

 land area. If they are depleted, then much of our present life will 

 be affected. 



USING OUR FORESTS WISELY 



Forests are a source of wealth, pleasure and economic welfare. 

 It is of prime importance that forests be protected, for it is not easy 

 to replenish this source of supply for man and animals. 



GIVING OUR WILDLIFE A CHANCE 



If wildlife is destroyed, man has lost one of his most priceless 

 natural resources. There is urgent need to consider what steps to 

 take to provide bird sanctuaries and other types of protection for 

 all forms of wildlife. 



USING OUR MINERALS WISELY 



Modern life is dependent on mineral resources. Therefore future 

 progress will necessitate attention to the source of power and wealth, 

 if continued progress is to be made.
