1) When wheat cultivation had expanded dramatically in the early nineteenth

century, zealous farmers had recklessly uprooted all vegetation, and tractors

had turned the soil over, and broken the sod into dust.

2) In the 1930s, terrifying dust storms began to blow over the southern plains.

Black blizzards rolled in, very often 7,000 to 8,000 feet high, rising like

monstrous waves of muddy water.

3) As the skies darkened, and the dust swept in, people were blinded and choked.

Cattle were suffocated to death, their lungs caked with dust and mud. Sand

buried fences, covered fields, and coated the surfaces of rivers till the fish died.

4) The wind blew with ferocious speed.

5) But ordinary dust storms became black blizzards only because the entire

landscape had been ploughed over, stripped of all grass that held it together
