Grabbing in the Jer.sr Meadow.

Grabbing has become a very popular
sport in the Jersey meadows. The brack-
ish streams tributary TO the Hackensack
abound with crabs, and every day parties
Of crabbers, with high rubber boots, plod
through the marshes, nets in hand, in
search Of the crustacea. Catches of thres
or four dozen are not uncommon. On
Sundays the crabbers turn out in greater
force than the gunners. Flat bottomed
boats are largely used, being slowly
poled up and down the creeks, and IA
dies share quite fresly in the sport. Ths
crabs are much larger than those ordk
narily caught on the coast. They arc
said to be increasing in size as the sea-
pon advances, and may one day rival the
great crabs Of England and Californis.

and almost entirely mechanical. 1t pre-.
vents the fierce sweep of winds over the
surface of the ground, and therefore tends
to diminish evaporation from the soil and
from plants, especially in cold weather,
and to lessen the mechanical injury to trees
and bush fruits. 1t is apparent TO all good
observers, however, that windbreaks are
sometimes injurious. Therefore there
must be certain rules to govern their plant-
ing. The most important of these rules,
for Michigan especially, may be briefly
stated:
/. The windbreak should not obstruct
atmospheric drainage. Cold air is heavier
than warm air, and it therefore settles into
the lower areas. Elevated areas are con-
sequently warmer than low ones in still
weather. Inasmuch as these high lands
are more wind.spent than others, it has
become common impression that the
wind itself is in some manner a protection
to fruit plantations, whereas the protec.
ton really comes from atmospheric drain
age. The windbreak upon most of the ell
evated areas, therefore should be open
enough to allow of the free drainage OF
air. In such locations tight wall of ev-
ergreens is apt to be positively injurious.
Deciduous trees, with perhaps sparse
admixture of evergreens, make the better
windbreaks for sucL places. 1t should be
born in mind that the object is not to stop
the wind, but rather to break its force, to
check it. Breakwaters are often made OF
a network of naked spiles rather than
solid wall.
In many interior localities dense wind
break on the north and west excites an
early growth in tender fruits, thereby in
creasing danger from late spring frosts.
Hence:
2. The windbreak should never be dense
enough to force the buds on fruit trees, IN
those localities which are subject TO late
spring frosts. tits evident, therefore, that
spruces and other evergreens should be
planted sparingly in such places, and that
deciduous trees, which do not come early
into leaf, should be chosen.
One of the most disastrous effects of
winds in the orchard, and especially IN
small fruit plantations, is the sweeping of
the surface of the ground, causing excess
i've evaporation, carrying off the snow and
thereby exposing the roots and crowns OF
the plants to danger. Therefore:
3. AS rule, in localities where a.mos-
pheric drainage will not be seriously
checked, the windbreak should have COM
paratively dense bottom, formed by under
growth or low- branching trees.
All crops closely adjoining the wind
break suffer from lack Of moisture and food
supply, and many small plants, as BUSH
fruits and nursery stock, are broken by
the accumulating snow. Hence:
4. SO far as practicable, the windbreak
should be planted at distance of six rods
or more from the fruit plantation.
In our severe climate only the most
hardy and vigorous trees should be
planted; or, in other words:
5. Native trees and shrubs are preferable
for windbreaks. OF exotic trees, only the
Norway spruce and apple are desirable for
windbrakes in AIichigan.-L. Fl. Bailey,
