Work Completed By Camp SCS-6 Crews On Farm Terracing Projects
Weather favorable last month allowed Camp SCS-6 crews to finish terracing on multiple farms. About 16 miles of terraces were built, led by 7.7 miles at the L. P. Jens farm.

Foremen reporting progress include Dusky, Perrin, Saffel, and Stayer as crews advance with earthworks, watering systems, and sod cutting for outlets. The piece notes broader urging of wildlife restoration and conservation through the Mills County Conservation League, calling farmers, sportsmen, and businessmen to support rewilding efforts for future generations.
