ANDREWS Meneymaking Winkbreaks 


Proven Calorie Saver Backed by USDA and 
Conservation Service 
It takes feed, high caloric feed, to offeset winter’s sweeping winds. Whether 
it is food for the family dining table or feed for the feedlot, on a farmstead 
protected by a shelterbelt, less of each will be used. 
Both the United States Department of Agriculture and the Soil Conserva- 
tion Service indicate that less feed and less labor is involved in producing beef 
in feedlots protected by windbreaks. The SCS through a series of experiments 
has come to the conclusion that the windbreak area will produce more beef 
than the same area would if planted to a feed crop. 
The same is true with dairy cows, chickens and pigs. Each will produce 
more when protected from winter's gales. 
A house protected by a shelterbelt will use less fuel than the same house in 
the open. 
If you do not have a shelterbelt, you probably paid out more in increased 
fuel and feed costs in a year than a shelterbelt would have cost you, and you 
seed. ee : oe » still do not have your windbreak. .
