ANDREWS WINDBREAK PLANNING SERVICE 
This new rvice will help you plan your windbreak, by selecting the proper varieties for your soil 
and condit by laying out the planting areas showing locations of all plants and trees necessary for 
the building of this windbreak. A detailed estimate sheet will accompany the plans to show sizes of 
plant material and the cost of the various sizes. With these plans you will have complete information 
for establishing yur windbreak. An investment in a windbreak will bring you greater returns than 
the same money invested in any other part of your farm. You can well afford to make a substantial 
investment in a windbreak. A good windbreak is an “‘AA-1** investment. It will save you fuel and 
feed; help you produce better livestock; increase your income; eliminate drifting snow and protect your 
buildings and grounds 
To take advantage of this service, send in a sketch of your farm drawn to scale, showing location 
of buildings, drives and fields. Indicate the directions of the compass. We must also know the type 
of soil and’the amount of money you can devote to this important improvement. 
A small charge of $2.50 is made for this service. However, this amount is credited on windbreak 
orders of $25.00 or more. So this windbreak planning service really costs you nothing.

Money Saving Shelter Belts 
ASH. Most dependable of all trees for the windbreak or 
wood lot. Quick growing, long lived and excellent for 
lumber or fence posts. Will grow on almost any soil. 
Our strain of ash is a hardy Dakota strain that has 
proven to be drought resistant. 
AMERICAN ELM. Selected upland strain. Recommend- 
ed by the Conservation Department for shelter-belts and 
woodlots. Very hardy, long lived; beautiful. Will grow 
on almost any soil. Drought resistant. 
CHINESE ELM. Hardy Siberian strain. Grows rapidly 
even on poor soil. Low growing and dense branching 
habit makes our Siberian strain of Chinese Elm one of 
the very best windbreak trees to stop ground sweep of 
wind and drifting snow. 
SOFT MAPLE. Hardy, fast growing, especially on good 
soil. Gives almost immediate effect because of its rapid 
growth and fine foliage. Sometimes called Silver Maple. 
RUSSIAN OLIVE. True Mennonite strain. Fast grower; 
stands extremes of heat and cold. Excellent for the 
outside rows as a snow catch. Very attractive because 
of silver-colored foliage. 
NORWAY POPLAR. Its hardiness together with its 
rapid growth make this variety outstanding for wind- 
break planting. Grows well on any soil. 
BLACK WALNUT. Grown from our native seed. Good 
in the shelterbelt and the nuts are excellent for cooking. 
The lumber being of highest quality brings a good 
price on the market. 
RUSSIAN GOLDEN WILLOW. This fast growing wil- 
low has attractive bright yellow bark. They are espe 
cially fine when planted in masses and are very colorful 
in winter. Hardy anywhere. 

Steers Protected by Windbreak 
Made $243.00 More Profit! 
Comparative tests have proven that farm products 
can be produced at less cost in farmyards protected by 
windbreaks. In the case of beef—2 lots of 50 steers 
each, one lot fed in a protected yard, the other not 
protected by a windbreak. Those in the protected yard 
had the same kind and amount of feed as others, but 
gained 2,250 pounds more. Sold at $10.80 per hun- 
dred, this lot brought extra return of $243.00.
