to build fences as windbreaks. This

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agrlculture,)
Careful investigation has shown that
the soil is always changing. Water
and wind are always at work moving
It's particles from place 10 place, car
rytng them ultimately into the sea.
For the most part this is a beneficial
process. Were each particle OF soil
to remain forever in one place. the
fertility OF the land would be rapidly
exhausted. As It is. new, unweathered
and unexhausted fragments OF the un-
derlylng rocks are continually adding
to the fertility of the soil zone by TAX.
ing the place Of the WORKOUT PARTICLES
which nature removes.
Under certain circumstances. how.
over. II frequently happens that this
process takes place too rapidly that
the particles OF topsoil are removed
before the underlying rock fragments
have been sufficiently prepared TO take
their places. This Is the case especial
ly in the arid and semiarid regions
and in sections where the soil is par
tioularly sandy In character. Under
such conditions soil blowing" may be
the cause Of serious damage. In the
first place the soil itself may be 80
blown away that subsoil insufficiently
weathered and filled with humus TO
be ready for crops, comes 10 the sur.
face; and secondly. the crops them
selves may be lost through the blow
ing out of the seed or the uprooting,
burial or cutting of Of the young
plants.
Few General ExpedIents.
The best remedy, according to the
United States department of agricul-
ture. for the farmer who finds himself
confronted with difficulties OF this sort
is to adopt a system OF crops which
will cover hts land with vegetation at
seasons when strong, dry winds are
most prevalent. The exact system
which the individual farmer should
follow depends. OF course. upon the
climate, the available markets, and
other local factors. There are, how
ever, a few general expedients which
It would be well for him to bear In
mind. For example. n fall blowing ia
not necessary. the stubble OF the last
crop should be left on the soil az late
as possible In the spring. or oats OF
barley may be sown in the late sum
mer or early fall. The plants will be
killed by the frost and win form 8

Another expedient is TO protect slow

Prisoners Of War.

Already large number. OF German
prisoners have been taken by the al
lies. In the Franco-German war Of
1870, the French prisoners reached the
extraordinary total Of 21,50S officers
and TOE, O48 men. OF these nearly $780,
900 were the Paris garrison, and over
80, 900 represented the French troops
disarmed and interned in Switzerland.
Prisoners of war are always an en-
barrassment and source Of consid-
cradle worry and expense. though
their numbers are frequently lessened
by interchange OF prisoners taken by
the enemy.
