Evergreens offer permanence and year-around beauty 
in the windbreak. With the proper selection of varie- 
ties you will find they will thrive and stand dry weather 
just as well as the deciduous trees. A good Evergreen 
Windbreak about the farm home is one of the best 
investments you can make. It stops the wind and 
snow, and makes the farmstead more comfortable and 
pleasant to live and work in. Evergreen Windbreaks 
are a permanent investment that increases in value 
Norwer Pine each year. Plant Evergreens in a double row with the 
rows 12 to 15 feet apart. The trees 4 to 6 feet apart 
in the row. 

Colorado Blue Spruce 
Evergreens are slower in developing to a size where 
they offer protection from the winds. To overcome 
this we recommend planting a few rows of fast 
growing deciduous trees such as Siberian Chinese 
Elm or Green Ash. These can be taken out as the 
Evergreens develop and will furnish a good supply 
of wood in addition to their value as a windbreak. 
We list two classes of Windbreak Evergreens:
