Suth an arrangement of fences allows the wind to pass through but reduces its velocity and hence sand is deposited within and on both sides. As the sand accumulates to the top of the fences, the palings should be raised, and, when the dune has reached a height of 30 feet, sea oats (Uniola paniculata) should be planted 3 feet apart, alternating in rows 3' apart, parallel to the crest of the dune. The grass should be planted on both sides of the dune and gradually extending to the windward until ...the dune attains a fairly permanent form with a gradual slope to the windward, while on the leeward side the slope be Q should/ approximately 30 . The successive steps in the form- ation of the barrier dune is shown in a series of diagrams in the appendix. The barrier dune when completed, will protect the area in the lee but will require constant care to keep it in proper condition. Every precaution should be taken to pre- vent a break in the dune and if such occurs it must be repaired immediately since the wind will constantly enlarge such open- ings.
