1950s documentary on The Dust Bowl

"Maybe we sinned in ways we do not know."



"I think we have the thing licked now and we won't see anymore Dust Bowl Days."

Out of the dust - a wild rose.

The long drought takes it's toll - on the grasses - the leaves - even the weeds.

When the winds come everything turns to dust and blows away.

Still, there is hope when Spring returns - the rains will come
and this desert rose will bloom again.
