With ordinary field crops the 

 farmer may count on a benefit 

 from windbreak protection which 

 will make the loss of the area 

 occupied by the trees negligible. 

 Under Middle Western condi- 

 tions a windbreak whose width 

 does not exceed two or three 

 times its height will more than 

 pay for itself, regardless of the 

 timber which it may produce. 

 Farther east the same kind of in- 

 fluence and benefit will exist, 

 though in a less marked degree, 

 and a greater direct return may be 

 expected from growing the timber 

 for its own value, so that the need 

 of even a slight amount of protec- 

 tion should make windbreak 

 planting attractive. 

 In any region the windbreak should 

 be so laid out as to offer the greatest 

 resistance to damaging winds and t( 1 

 protect the greatest area. This sim- 

 ply means having the belt or row at 

 right angles to the prevailing winds. 

 In addition to affording protection 

 to crops and buildings, the windbreak 

 usually has considerable value as a 

 source of wood supply for vise on the 

 farm or for sale. In the following
