Windbreaks on Sandy Soil.
In every long settled locality where
the soil is sandy farmers quickly learn,
after the original forest is cleared
away, to plant windbreaks to protect
their soil from blowing away. Such
w indbreaks do good, says the American
Cultivator, which mote than offsets the
waste of the land which they occupy.
Not only is soil blown away after being
plowed, but during the summer there
are freipient violent sandstorms where
the winds have full sweep, which un
cover seeds and plants or blow sand
against the foliage of plants, cutting
and spoiling It. These windbreaks
serve another Important purpose In
winter In keeping the snow evenly
spread over the fields. They should be
of evergreen wherever possible,, so as
to make a protection for winter as well
as for the summer season.
