PLANT FOREST TREES FOR PROTECTION AGAINST 
DUST STORMS, COLD WINTRY WEATHER. 
View of Farm Home Properly Planted with Forest Trees 
The dust storms of the past few years 
have shown us the urgent need for wind¬ 
breaks during the summer months. Also, 
the windbreaks break the force of the 
cold wintry winds. If your farm build¬ 
ings are protected by a windbreak of 
forest trees your cows will give more 
milk, your steers will make more weight, 
and your hens will lay more eggs. And, 
it will take a lot less fuel to heat your 
home—and how much more comfortable 
it is to work around your barn lot. Dur¬ 
ing the hot summer months think of the 
shade and comfort an acre or so of forest 
trees will give to your stock. 
Our forest trees also provide the 
means for a lot of cheap post timber— 
something you need and which can be 
sold at a profit to your neighbors. 
The forest trees we are offering for 
shade, post timber, windbreaks, and shel- 
terbelt plantings are one year nursery 
grown trees, straight, smooth, well 
rooted stock and at the attractive prices 
we are offering no farmer can afford 
to do without these. Plant a thousand 
or more for a hedge or in a grove to 
serve as a windbreak for protection for 
your stock, or to grow into post timber. 
The expense is very small, and while it 
pays you well to have shade and wind¬ 
breaks for your stock, the added valua¬ 
tion, which these trees will add to your 
farm, will mean much to you. 
CATALPA SPECIOSA — This is the 
hardy western type and grows rapidly, 
resists drought remarkably well and 
has hardly any insect enemies. As a 
post timber it ranks with the Black 
Locust and Osage Orange. Very fine 
for groves.
