mentioned commercial agencies were
interested, extension workers address

Trees and shrubs about the home
and farmstead not only increase the
value of the property but make con-
d1tions pleasanter and more healthful.
A limited amount of planting may be
done. therefore, for comfort alone fr-
respective of other return. Where a
considerable plantation is contem-
plated. however. it is essential to
know what material may be grown
economically and the uses to which 1t
may be put.
On the average farm in the plains
region the first effort in planting is
to provide a small grove plantation
which will protect the buildings from
severe winds and furnish shade for
greater comfort of both man and ami
mails. Sometimes when such a wind
break has been established the owner
tries to make 1t furnish supply Of
material for use on the farm. This
is mistake. for If belt of trees is
planted primarily as a protection
against the wind the pruning and re-
mova1 of much large material may
lessen or even destroy it's protective
value.
Value Of Plantation.
The value of a plantation, other
than a windbreak, on the farm lies
in it's ability to furnish fuel, posts
and limited amount of lumber and
repair material. Within q very few
years after planting the plantation
will mood IN ~ rranod md Tho x>~rxv,-
Ing will furnish considerable fuel, de-
pending upon the size of the plot, If
good care is given the trees they will
develop rapidly and some thinning
will have to be done to prevent harm
full crowding. The material thus re-
moved will contribute materially to
the upkeep Of the farm by furnishing
posts and stakes. When the planta-
ton is still older more valuable ma
terfal may be harvested. Small tim
bers for building construction, poles
for implements, also tool handles,
neckyOkeS, eveners, whiffletrees and, in
favorable situations, a limited amount
Of lumber is provided at home as
needed.
Throughout the plains region there

will produce even a fair grade Of lum-
Der and this fact should be taken
into account when species are select
ed for planting When a large planta-
ton is established care Chould be
taken to put out such trees as will
give the maximum amount of body
material and to arrange them so as to
derive the greatest benefit!
Secure Best Results.
In windbreak planting the best re-
suits usually are secured when the
shortest trees are placed on the side
facing the wind, so that sloping face
is presented and the air currents are
DETECTED upward. These short trees
should have low-branching habits and
dense foliage, In order that they may
offer as much hindrance to the pas
sage Of air currents close to the
ground as is possible. The Russian
olive is probably the best for this.
Not infrequently, when complaints are |
made of the reputed fnefectiveness
of windbreaks it develops upon exami- |

INCREASE SUPPLY Of
CHICKENS AND EGGS

prepared by the United States De-
<partment of Agriculture.)
Every commercial breeder, ev-
cry farmer, every backyard
poultry raiser, is urged to keep
these aims steadily in view:
1. Keep better poultry. Stand
ard-bred poultry improves the
quality and increases production.
2. Select healthy, vigorous
breeders to produce strong
chicks.
8. Hatch early to produce fall
and winter layers.
4. Preserve eggs when cheap
for home use.
3. Produce infertile eggs, ex-
cept for Matching.
6. Gull the flocks to eliminate
improbable producers.
z. Keep a small backyard
flock to supply the family table.
8. Grow as much poultry feed
as. possible.
9. Eat more poultry and eggs
to conserve the meat supply.

the hole at the bottom of the churn,
using a strainer to catch particles Of
butter. When the buttermilk has
drained out, replace the cork.
H. Prepare twice as much wash wa

the same temperature. Use the Their

draw off the water. Repeat the wash
