An effort to determine the value ot
windbreaks on farms Is being made by
tha Forest Service o f the United Statee
Department o f Agriculture. A t pree
d it windbreaks ere planted haphazard
and many do not believe In them, so it
Is time w ei had some definite informa
tion on the subject. I f there Is a par
ticular kind o f tree that makes a bet
ter protection to crops without doing
any harm we should know it. The
Forest Service proposes to find out
Just how much. If any, and when wind
breaks increase crop yields.
Instru
ments w ill be used to measure beat and
cold, moisture and dryness, both above
and below ground; to register tbe force
of tbe wind near the windbreaks and
some distance a w a y ; to measure light
Intensity and take note o f the effects o f
shade; to register frosts at different
distances from the trees and to keep
account o f the effect o f windbreaks on
the snow which covers tbe ground to
leeward In winter. Many other meas
urements and tests will be made and
elaborate data w ill be collected by ex
perts who w ill have charge o f the in
vestigation. Corn will be tbe first crop
studied behind windbreaks. Corn Is a
particularly good crop to experiment
with because It Is easily Injured by
hot, dry winds, w ill not stand shading
and Is very sensitive to frosts.
I f It is found, as Is generally sup
posed, thst windbreaks are a decided
advantage to crop yields, it w ill be an
easy matter for tbe farm er to plant
trees In bis fence rows or along the
sides o f his fields toward the prevail
ing winds and thus protect his crops as
well as produce a valuable crop o f tim
ber. In view o f the fact that our tim
ber supply is rapidly waning, It stands
