"The Depletion of Natural Resources / How is that this land used to feed our fathers, bt now cannot feed our chidlren? One of the courses of starvation in our century is soil erosion--one of the worst man-made enemies of man. The abused topsoil of continents, slowly but relentlessly, is being washed away by bloods or blown away by winds.
