YIN most parts of the country ii is
81 necessary to provide some sort of
0 shelter for the stock during con-
siderable portion of the year.
Good buildings are expensive, and it
takes a number of years TO get the
farm improved as it should be. BY
having a definite plan in mind, how.
ever, every building that is put up can
be made to conform to that plan, and
the final results will be much better
than If the work had been gone at il
Il haphaZard manner.
There is usually a rise Of ground
somewhere along the road that makes
Il good building Site Natural drain
age is very important, as the yards
will be sloppy enough at best in wet
season. The first step after the site
has been selected IL to provide a good
windbreak on the north and west.
There is nothing so effective for
windbreak as an evergreen hedge.
The best evergreenS to use for this
purpose are the pines. OF these the
Scotch pine is one of the hardest and
is also n fairly rapid grower. 1t does
not make as good a windbreak as
some of the others. however. The
Austrian and bull pines are among the
best for windbreaks. White pine is Il
rapid grower and is very valuable for
lumber when it reaches sufficient size.
The worst fault with it is that it is
rather tender when young. The white

spruce is an excellent windbreak tree,
growing rapidly and making a dense
hedge. 1t is of little value for timber
purposes, however.
Setting the Windbreak.
Two rows of evPrgreens are suiti-
cient for. an effective windbrPak. If
set sixteen feet apart. with the trees
in the second row opposite the spaces
in the first, they will in few years
form a mass that will be practically
windproof. Willows, catalpas. and
other quick growing trees make fair
windbreaks and grow up quickly
enough to be useful for number of
years before the evergreens are big
enough to do any good. Unless plant
ed very thickly, however. much of
their effectiveness is lost in the winter
at the very time when they are most
needed. 1t is a good practice TO plant
q few of these quick growing trees
outside the evergreens. They will pro-
tect both the evergreens and the build
ingS until the former are large enough
TO be effective. Then the temporar.'
trees can be cut down for posts ard
wood. 1t is sometimes hard TO EilI
willows after they once get start,
but with the aid Of few sheep or
goats this can be accomplished.
Little care is needed TO get n stand

three or four feet wide. where the
row is to be. should be plowed. In the
prairie states spring Is the best time
to transplant. Two to four year old
trees are generally used.
The greatest cause of failure with
evergreens is allowing the root system
to become dry. After the roots are
once dry the tree might as well be
thrown away. us il will not grow. AS
soon as the trees are taken from the
packing of wet moss In which they
are received they should be placed In
a pail OF water They should not be
removed from this until he hole IN
which they are to go Is dug Then
they should he placed in the hole i'm.

packed we'll enough watering will not
be necessary. In most cases the trees
will be better off without il. Ever
greens should not he cut back in trans
planting, as is done with other trees.
rs this causes uneven growth. If q
strip on each side Of the trees Is cul-
nvated for few years the trees will
grow faster and be more vigorous.
Building Material.
The question of building material is
IN important one on the farm where
there is much building to- be done.
Lumber is undoubtedly the most con-
venlent and In most cases probably
the cheapest also. When durability is
considered. however. lumber is inferior
20 other materials. This is especially
rue of the quality Of lumber that is
coming on the market in the last few
years.
Cement has been much laudcd as n
building material. II has many uses
and advantages. There is a tendency.
however. &c ovcrcstimate the value OF
cement and TO look at II as the best
