Choosing Adaptable Species


In selecting the species of trees
and shrubs for windbreak paintings,
several factors must be taken into
consideration. Species best adapted
for a particular planting is regulated
by climatic conditions, type of soil,
moisture conditions and susceptible
ity to insect attacks.
Trees and shrubs which have
proved adaptable to Montana and
which are available from the forest
nursery at Montana State university
through county extension agents are:
Caragana. Russian olive. Chi
nese elm. American elm. green
ash. golden willow. white will
low. northwestern poplar or cot
tonwood. juniper r. Ponderosa
pine. Colorado blue spruce and
Black Hills spruce. t3 s
Before selecting the species to
plant, farmers and ranchers should
contact their county extension
agents to see which are most adapt
able to the area where they are to
be planted. Some of the trees listed
above may not be suited 10 some
locations because they are suscept-
IDLE to winter killing or insects that
prevail in those localities. Cotton
woods and willows will not live
-ooDry xyOo, ,x-1aec poo.ctt1ro &c avail
able near the surface.
Spacing and Cultivation
Cultivation is very essential If
paintings are to be successful on dry
land. Therefore, spacing between the
rows must be wide enough for farm
ers to cultivate with the machinery
they have available. Recommended
tons by various persons who have
stddied farmstead windbreaks over
a period of years run from IL to l6
feet or more between rows where
trees are planted in the driest sites
of Montana. On irrigated sites, the
rows can be somewhat closer to-
gether but should not be less than
10 feet apart.
On dry land, the hedge row plant
ings within the row should be about
three feet apart while other broad
leaf species may be planted eight tc
10 feet apart and conifers six tc
eight feet apart within the row.
On irrigated land, three-foot spac-
ing between the paintings rs al
right for the hedge row, but the
trees in the other rows a be plant
ed six to eight feet apart.

A former Yugo- slav delegate to the United Nations said he thought Tito had been killed Ranking U. s. officials said certain ly he had been taken care of" But in Rome, high Yugoslav diplomat asserted Tito still is in power
 The cominform is the cabal of Russia, the puppet states she con- trols in Eastern Europe and the Communist Party of Italy and France.

Truman Is Target From All Sides
 In Many Speeches
CBy The Associated Press)

Political brickbats showered down on President Truman from a full battery of Republican cam paign speakers today. Another came sailing up from a southern stronghold of his own Democratic party.
 On the side, two candidates for the COP Presidential nomination differed publicly over how gener- ous this country should be in help ing Europe.
 The added attraction featured Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York and Senator Taft of Ohio.
 Both gave the Truman foreign policy a severe raking, but they split in their discussion of the Marshall plan.
 Dewey told a Boston Lincoln Day audience the foreign policy should be thrown overboard- lock, stock and barrel" Taft, speaking at St. Paul, blamed it for "the losing of the peace thus far"
 However, Dewey said it would be better to give the administra- ton all it has asked for spending under the Marshall plan than to limit it with a small amount which might fail to do the job"
 Taft insisted that foreign aid spending should be held to essen tial food and industrial pump priming.
 Former Governor Harold Stas- sen of Minnesota, who also is run ming for the Republican nomina- ton, said in Germantown, Pa, he thinks the Marshall plan should
