Soil Stewardship
(Continued from Psji A^4)
“The Caloctin and Frederick
Soil Conservation districts are
unique in that they are the only
districts in the state based on wa
tersheds and historical back
ground,” said Dawn Early, district
manager for both districts. The
Catoctin watershed is mountain-
ous, and thus has characteristical
ly steep slopes and different soils.
It is the second oldest district in
the state, established in 1939. The
Frederick District was created in
1944, when the Monocacy water
shed was split into the Carroll and
Frederick districts.
David O’Hara, winner of the
Speak Off contest, presented his
talk on soil and water conserva
tion at the luncheon. Closing re
marks were given by Jesse Burall,
chairman of the Frederick Soil
Conservation District
The board of supervisors for the
Ca toe tin district consists of Daniel
C. Poole, chairman; John Sum
mers, vice chairman; Fred H.
Beachley, treasurer; Wilmer H.
Keller, assistant treasurer; Richard
Mcßride, supervisor; and G. Paul
Edwards, Steve Leatherman, and
David O’Hara
K. Scott Hood, associates. For the
Frederick district the board is
made up of Jesse Burall, chair
man; Roger Troxell, vice chair
man; C. Ellis Hood, treasurer;
George “Nick” Nicholson, Jr., as
