The comforting influence Of an
evergreen windbreak can scarcely
be realized unless you have step.
ped behind a bunch of ever.
greens on a blistering winter day.
Therefore now while it is cold
and we feel it, | think it a good
time to plan for such a planting
which in the long run will be of
greatest substantial benefit to
our individual homes and our
communities.
A practical windbreak should
be planned to grow in the shape
like the roof of house, the out
side row should be of variety
that will keep its branches alive
down to the ground so as to pre-
vent draft storm and cold from
getting in under but throw them
over. This I regard. if well plan
ned and executed, the most eff
cient protective tariff | can
imagine and won't hurt anybody.
Such a windbreak will make it
possible for us to grow success
fully many varieties of desirable
fruits and flowers in our gardens
that otherwise if planted in this
latitude would prove waste of
time and money and perhaps
cause lot of swearing and bad
feeling toward our Creator. 1t
will, in a few years, repay it's
cost by increased production and
net profit of our farms.
The general objection in the
mind of most people to planting
evergreens is that they believe it
will take a lifetime to grow a
reasonable or effective wind
break. This is not the case. if
you go after it right. We have
several evergreen windbreaks
planted in late years around
Askov which are now from 10 to
20 feet high. and adding two to
three feet a year to their
height. but we also have few
samples Of evergreens picked up
in the brush and planted few
years ago which now look more
like a ragged drunken moon
sinner than we'll groomed pro-
tective tariff. The evergreeNs to
make a success in life must be
well trained. well brought up and
schooled like other babies. A few
rows of evergreens planted 8
feet apart and kept well cult
waited for at least a couple years
will do better and grow quicker
than if grass and weeds are al
lowed to suck the moisture out
Of the soil. | will recommend
American Arbor Vitae for the
outside row and Norway Spruce

German Lengthens
The Body OF Dwarf

A.t vi. $50 #NL
Berlin.-(By the Associated Press.)
"Details Of how q dwarf's body was
heightened by breaking the legs and
making an extension grow between
the broken ends. an achievement Of
the German medical world which was
announced recently, have been made
public.
The experiment, just completed by
a surgical specialist, August Bier, q
member Of the medical faculty OF
Berlin university. began by outing
through the muscular layer and NOM
branes covering the bones Of the leg.
which were then broken. The ends
were then placed together provision
ally, but after four or Ave days were
drawn several cenimeters apart.
P~athologsts heretofore have believed
that such q space would not refill tho
substance Of the same nature as pre-
viously were present. and that the
new growth would be developed I'M
naturally and in patchwork fashion.
Bier discovered. however, that
strong tissue could be fostered to
bridge the gap. BY drawing the
severed sections gradually apart. he
found It impossible merely to stretch
this tissue without tearing it. and
after a time learned that a permA-
nent connection had developed.
