Abstract
TRAVELING through the rolling, fertile plains of the Middle West, through the orchard lands of California, through the oil fields of Oklahoma, or through the ore laden mountains, one cannot but marvel at the productiveness of nature. Yet, nature is mystifying. Despite human endeavors these fields, which to-day are so fertile in the essentials of life, may lie barren and empty tomorrow. Man may direct nature, but he cannot completely control it. Through his genius he may increase the productiveness and enhance the value of these fields, but he never knows when nature may rebound and crush his hopes for advancement. Any undertaking parallels nature. We plan for to-morrow, but who can foresee the obstacles which may rise unheralded and obliterate our hopes for achievement?
