P/ant a V^indbreak This Year 
The recent drought years have taught important lessons with reference 
to the planting of windbreak trees. 
Green Ash ranks at the head of the list, in its ability to survive in 
regions of scanty rainfall. Chinese Elm has also demonstrated that 
it is an outstanding tree in sections too dry for most other trees, 
and on account of its habit of branching close to the ground it is a 
good tree for the outer rows of a shelter belt. 
It is recommended that Ash and Chinese Elm be alternated either in 
the row, or that the alternate rows of each be used. 
For a low spot, too wet for other trees to thrive, the Laurel Leaf 
Willow is best suited. 
We offer the hardiest recommended varieties for planting in the 
Northwest, and advise planting two to five or even six rows for real 
effectiveness. Rows to be 10-12 ft. apart, and the trees 4-5 ft. apart 
in the rows.
