Drowning in Dirt: Joseph Hutton and the Dust Bowl
Joseph Hutton, one of the first soil scientists of South 啵啵直播秀, brought a new concept to the state that not all soil was the same and that different soils required different farming practices to be sustainable. Since his arrival in 1911, Hutton studied the effects of the farming practices of the day depleted the soil nutrients and caused erosion. He predicted the Dust Bowl 20 years before. For Joseph Hutton, soil became a sacred living entity in which sprang all life. He dreamed of a time when man was akin with nature and not the destroyer of it. He used any form of communication to promote this idea including poetry, radio and public speeches.
