Reports Successful Year School Fair Board Sets Event for September 14 If you are worried about next year's new silo or fence causing a snowdrift at your barn door, you could build the structure and then wait for the next snow- storm to give you your answer. However, that could be an ex- pensive guess. The best way would be to use the Ontario Agricultural College's snow- wind tunnel in the School of Engineering. A scale, Plexiglas model of your farm is put into a tunnel through which a current of wa- ter flows. Fine sand (simulat- ing snow) is added to the cur- rent, and this "snow" then ac- cumulates on the farm model at points where snowdrifts and wind currents would occur. Situ- ations created by wind from every direction can be studied since the farm model can be rotated. In addition, by mani- pulating, adding, and subtract- ing the various Plexiglas con- structions, your snow problems can be eliminated. Faster and more precise than computers, this service is also free to Ontario residents. For further information, contact your agricultural representative.
