station indian head saak- indicated that proper mulching of trees may be a satisfactory method of establishing windbreaks spaced 4x4 feet under certain prairie conditions data obtained during the growing seasons of 1949 1950 and 1951 in- dlcated that mulching of trees grown since 1942 at the station in belts 4x4 feet tended to increase the water content of twigs this would increase their possibility of escaping drought injury the effect of mulches appeared to be more pronounced during seasons with subnormal amount of precipitation during the relatively dry periods of each growing season a greater amount of available moisture and a lower temperature were found in the surface soil of the root areas of trees under mulch as compared with those not mulched this would suggest that the increased water content of twigs taken from trees that were mulched could to a con siderable extent be due to the in sulating effect of mulch and its preventive influence from excessive losses of moisture by evaporation tbe possibility is not overlooked that mulches may also moderate ex cessive absorption of water bv root systems because of possible poorer aeration of soil results of these investigations have also indicated that the effects of mulching appeared to be more pronounced following more pro fashion hint the new slim narrow look is beautifully interpreted in this ray on crepe
