There are other uses of trees both for ornament and protection, espe- 

 cially in the vicinity of our dwellings, but time will not allow of speaking 

 of them now. The use of trees for protection — any kind rather than none 

 — the best if you can get them — is one of the matters that no farmer can 

 afford to neglect. The time is at hand when the absence of such protec- 

 tion will detract from the selling value of a farm, and make it more diffi- 

 cult to sell, as much as any other condition connected with it. If you 

 have not already done so, plant a shelter at once.
