D alhart, Texas —Tree planting on the G reat Plains should result in a decline in the ravages from wind and dust, Charles van G order be lieves. Van G order is forester for an ex perim ental project near D alhart for the oil conservation service. Dur ing the three years since the proj ect was originated, a t the height of the dust plague, tiny trees have grown into 12-foot saplings. Of 13,000 trees planted and receiving “ m inim um c a re ” for test purposes, 80 per cent have survived. Survivals range downward from the 94 per cent of the thorny honey locust. One Russian m ulberry has grown since 1935 from 18 inches to 11 feet in height. Little Care Required. "The high percentages of surviv als indicates that trees will live in this sem iarid area with a m inim um of c a re ," said Van Gorder. “ It has been shown th at trees can be grown into excellent windbreaks within a short time. Suitable planting and a few tim ely cultivations each year furnish the keynote to successful tree planting in w hat once was the center of the Dust Bowl.” Principal experim ents in use of trees on the plains have been with farm stead and field border wind breaks. The farm stead type usually consists of three rows of trees plant ed on the north and west sides of a farm home and other buildings to break some saving on fuel in ad dition to lessening the wind’s force. Such w indbreaks for farm anim als also increase their value and m ake their feeding m ore profitable. Single Row Breaks Wind. The field border windbreaks are a single row of trees, planted around the edge of a field to reduce drifting of the top soil. Since m ost wind erosion on the plains is started by loose earth on the fields’ edge, the border trees re duce such dam age m aterially. Van G order also revealed th at the row of 5-year-old trees disrupted the force of straight winds and directed the force upward past the vulnerable portions of the field. Minimum care given the trees consists of digging diversion ditches to concentrate and hold the w ater from rainfall. Som etim es the w ater is diverted from roadside ditches. Van G order ilso recom m ends occa sional cultivation of the trees. •> American Rural W omen Sew Less, Survey Shows ♦ W O R L D ’S FIRST FLEET NOW IN S E R V IC E / Ames, Iowa. — Modern rural A m erica apparently is forsaking the sewing machine as a m eans of m ak ing clothing, just as another genera tion abandoned the spinning wheel, according to a survey of 1,031 Iowa farm women. The survey, reported by Miss Elizabeth Peterson, clothing special ist, disclosed th at 80 per cent of the clothing worn by the farm women was ready-m ade. Only 40 per cent of all dresses worn were m ade on the fam ily sewing m achine and m ost of these w ere cotton house dresses, Miss Peterson said. , Only 6 per cent of the coats and 11 per cent of the underw ear were hom em ade, according to the survey. The clothing specialist reported that 62 per cent of all dresses worn were cotton. The sam e was true for hose, indicating th at farm women do not risk hazards of “ runners” and save silk hose for special occasions. The women averaged seven pairs of hose a year, spending only $4 on them . Of an average expenditure of $64 for each of the 1,031 women, $17 was spent for dresses and the sam e amount for coats. They av eraged two or three silk or rayon dresses each, six cotton and one wool. An average of $2.33 was allotted annually by each of the women for their “ beauty budgets,” which in cluded such item s as perm anent waves, haircuts and cosmetics. 5TON, OREGON.
