Bywaters' painting
"Soil Conservation in Collin County" was a subtle nudge
to Texas farmers to adopt contour plowing - a preventitive for one
of the major contributors to the "Dust Bowl."
The rural population of Texas was a majority
when this painting was made - and by today's standards it could be
considered a very artistic "Public Service Announcement." |
