jfarm, From the Xe* YorkTrffiune. WHAT I KNOW OF FARMING. BY HORACE GHIJET. IX.—Planting nud (ironi*f Trees. Whoever has recently bought, inherited, or otherwise become the owner of a farm, has unusually found some-part or parts of it devoted to wood: and this, if not in excess, he will mainly preserve, while he studies and plans with a view to the ultimate devotion to timber of jnst those portions of his land that are best adapted to that use. In locating his timber, I would have him consider these sug gestions : I. Land wisely planted with trees and fenced so far as need be to keep out cattle, costs nothing. Whatever eke you grow in volves labor and expenditure: trees.grow o( their own accord. Yon. may neglect them utterly—may wander over the earth and be absent for ten or twenty years, while your fences decay and your fields are overcropped to exhaustion; even yonr meadows may be run out by late mowing and close feeding at both ends of the season, till a dozen acres will hardly subsist a span of borses and a cow, but your woods need only to be let aloue to insure that tbc-ir value shall have decided ly increased during your absence. They will richly reward labor and care in thinning, trimming, and transplanting—you ir.ay profit ably employ in them any time that you can spare them—but they will do very well it simply let alone. And, unlike any other product with which I am acquainted, you may take crop after crop of wood from the same lot, aud the soil will be richer and more productive after the last than it was btlore the first. Whether wholly because their roots permeate and hi-eat- tin the soil during their fife und enrich it in their decay, or fordiver-e reasons, it is certainly true that land—and especially poor land —is enriched by growing upon it a crop of almost any timber, the evergreens possibly excepted. So, should rou ever have land that you cannot till to profit, whether because it is 100 poor, or be cause you have sufficient that is better, you should at once devote it to wood. 11. Your springs and streams will be ren dered more stable and enduring by iticreas ing the area and the luxuriance of your titn bar. They may have become scanty and capricious under a policy of reckless, whole sale destruction of trees; they will be re en forced and re-invigorated by doubling the area of your wood, while quadrupling the number and increasing the average size of your trees. 111. All ravines and steep hill-sides should be devoted to trees. Every acre 100 rocky to be thoroughly cleared of stone and plowed should be set apart for tree-growing. Wherev or the soil will be gullied or washed away by violent rains If aadcr tillage, it should be ex eluded from cultivation and given up to trees. Men often doubt the profit of heavy manur ing: and well they may, if three fourths of the fertilizers applied are soaked out and away by flooding rains or sudden thaws and floated off to some distant sea or bay: but let all that is applied to the soil only remain there till it is carted away in crops, and it will hardly be possible to manure too highly for profit. IV. Trees, especially evergreens, may be so disposed as to modify agreeably the aver age temperature of your farm, or at least of the most important parts of it. When I bought my place—or rsther. the first install ment of it—the best spot I could select for a garden lay at.the foot of a hill which haif sur rounded it on the south and east, leavjng it exposed to the full sweep of north and north west winds; 60 that, thongh the soil vas grav elly and warm, my garden was likely to be cold and backward. To remedy this, I plant ed four rows of evergreens (Balsam Fir, Fine, Red Cedar, and Hemlock), along alow ridge bounding it on the north, following an inward curve of the ritjge at its west end; and those evergreens have in sixteen years grown into very considerable trees, forming a shady, leanly, inviting lower, or sylvan retreat, daintily carpeted with the fallen leaves of the nvcrhangiug firs. I judge that the arerage temperature ot the soil for some yards south ward of this wind break is at least live degrees higher, throughout the growing season, than it formerly was or would now be if these ev ergreens were swept,away, while the aspect of the place is agreeably diversified, and even beautified, by their appearance. I believe it would sell for some hundreds of dollars more with than without that thrifty, growing clump of evergreens. I. I have already urged", though not strong ly enough, that crops, as well us springs, will be improved by keeping the crests of ridges tiiici, y wooded, thus depositing moisture in Winter and Spring to be slowly yielded to the subjacent slopes during beat aud droutb of Summer, i firmly believe that the slopes of a bill whose crest is heavily wooded will yield larger average crops than ., P e and crest together wruld do if both were bare of tree?. 11. The banks of considerable streams, ponds, 4c.. may often be so planted with trees that these will shade more water that, land, to the comfort and satisfaction of the fish, and the protection of those banks from abrasion by floods, and rapid currents. Sve emore, Elm, and Willow, do well here; if good Grape- Vines are set besides and allowed to run over some of them, the effect is good, and the grapes acceptable to man and bird. H. Never forget that a good tree grows thriftily uo d surely as a poor oce. Many a farmer has tc day ten to forty acres of in di.inrcnt cord-wood where he might, at a erv slight cost, have had instead na equal quanti ty of choice timber, worth ten times as much. Hickory. Chestnut, and Walnut, while they yield nuts that can be eaten orsold, are worth far more as timber than an equal bulk of Beech, Birch, Hemlock, or Red Oat. Chest nut has more than doubled in value within the last few years, mainly because it has been tound excellent for the inside wood work of dwellings. Locust also seems to be increasing >n value. Ten acres of large, thrifty Locust near this City would now buy a pretty good -arm: as 1 presume it would, if located near any of our great cities. Mil. \\ here several good varieties ot Tim- J f r art ' together, some insect or atmos Phenc trouble may blast one of them, yet • cave the residue alive and hearty. And. if ail continue thrifty, some may be cut out and sold, leaving others more room to grow and rapid!j attain a vigorous maturity. IX. Wherever timber has become scarce aud valuable, a wood-lot 'hculd be thinned out, nevermore cleared off. unless it is to be de voted to a different use. It seems to roe that destroying a forest because we want timber is mothering a hire of bees because we want honey. X. Timber should be cut with intelligent reference to the future- Locust and other valuable Wee. thai it i. desirable should throw up shoots f rom , be gtlimp Bnd _ _ dues their kind, should be cut in March cr te r ,h "n L tre " SOU * enin , Sh ° Ul< ; ln that they ranv VT? ' • 6 ' aay Ue "ueptions to this rule, but I o aol bapj.cn to recollect any. Evergreens do not sprout; and I think these shook be cut in Winter-at all events, not in Spring, when fall of aap aud thus prone to rapid decar. I may have more to say of trees by and by vat rest here for the present. The impur' tance of the topic can hardly be overrated. j i jj —L4 J?

QPFICE OF FISK & HATCH, BANKERS AND DEALERS TS GOVERN MENT SECURITIES, No. i R.imic Ssnr.ET, NEW-YOBK, February 15tb, 1870. The rental liable success which attended our negotiation of the Loans of the CENTRAL PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY and the WESTERN PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY, and the popularity and cred it which these Loins have maintained in the markets, both in this country and Europe, hare shown that the First Mortgage Bonds of wisely located and honorably-man ged Railroads arc promptly recognised end readily taken as the most suitable, tat'e, and advantageous form of investment, yielding a more liberal income than can hereafter he derived from Government Bonds, and available to take their place. Assured that, in the selection and negotiation of superior Railroad Loans, we are meeting a great public want, and rendering a valuable ser vice—-both to the holders of Capital and to those great National works of internal improvement whose intrinsic merit and substantial character entitle them to the use of Capital and the confi dence of investors—we now offer with special eon i dence and satisfaction the FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS or THE Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Company. The Chesapeake an■' Ohio Railroad, connecting the Atlantic coast and the magnificent harbors of the Chesapeake Bay with the Ohio River at a point of reliable navigation, and thus, with the entire Railroa system and vater transportation of the great West and Southwest, FORMS THE ADDITIONAL EAST AND WEST TRUNK LINES, so imperatively demanded for the ac commodation of the immense and rapidly-grow ing transportation between the Atlantic seaboard and Europe pit the one hand, and the great pro ducing regions of the Ohio and Mississippi Val leys on the other. THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS ROAD AS A NEW OUTLET FROM THE WEST TO THE SEA magnifies it into one of national consequence, and insures to it an extensive through trafilic from the day of its completion; while, in the de velopment of the extensive agricultural and min eral resources of Virginia and West-Virginia, it possesses, along its own line, ihc elements of a large and profitable loe.l business. Thus the great interests, both general and local, which demand the completion i f theCnESAPKAKf AND Onto RAILROAD to the Ohio River, afford the surest guarantee of its success and value, and RENDER IT THE MOST IMPORTANT AND SUBSTANTIAL RAILROAD ENTERPRISE NOW IX PROGRESS IX THIS COUNTRY. It- superiority us an East und West route, and the promise of an immense and profitable trade awaiting its completion, ESve drawn to it the attention and .co-operation of prominent Capital ists and Railroad men of this City of sound judg ment and known integrity, whose connection with it, together with thit of eminent citizens and bus iness men of Virginia and West Virginia, IN SURES AN ENERGETIC, HONORABLE and SUCCESSFUL MANAGEMENT. The Road is completed and in operation from Richmond to the celebrated White Sulphur Springs of West \ irginia, 227 miles, and there remain hut 200 miles (now partially constructed; to be completed, to carry it to the proposed ter minus on the Ohio river, at, or near, the mouth of the Big Sandy river, l."> 0 miles above Cincin. nati, and 350 miles below Pittsburgh. Lines are now projected or in progress through Ohio and Kentucky to this point, which will con nect the CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO AVITH THE ENTIRE RAILROAD SYSTEMS OF THE Y* EST AND SOUTHWEST, AND WITH THE PACIFIC RAILROAD. Its valuable franchises and superior advanta ges will place the CNRNPRSK'E AND OHIO RAIL ROAD Co.* PAN r among the richest and most powerful and trustworthy corporations of the country; AND THERE EXISTS A PRESENT VALUE, IX COMPLETED ROAD AND WORK DONE, EQUAL TO THE ENTIRE AMOUNT OF THE MORTGAGE. The details of the Loan have been arranged with special reference to the wants of all classes of investors, and combiue the various features of convenience, safety, and protection against loss or fraud. The Bonds arc in denominations of *IOOO, 9500, and 9100. They will bi issued as Coupon Boudt, payable to Bearer, and may he held in that form; or The Bond may he reyietered in the name of the owner, with the coupons remaining payable to bearer, attached, the principal being then trans ferable only on the books of the Company, unless re-aligned to bearer; or The coupons may be detached and cancelled, the Bond made a pennant at Reyietercd Bund, transferable only on the books of the Company, and the interest made payable only to the regis tcred owner or his attorney.

They have 111 IRT\ } EARS to run from Jan uary 1., IS7O, with interest at six per cent per annum from November I, 1879, PRINCIP \L and INTEREST PAYABLE IN GOLD IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK. The interest is payable in May and November, that it may take the place of the earlier issuer of I - ive-f wenties, and suit the convenience of our friends who already hold Central and Western Pacific Bonds, with interest payable in January and duly, and who may desire, in making addi tional investments, to have their interest receiva ble at different seasons of the year. Ihe Loon is secured by a mortgage upon the entire Line of Road from Richmond to the Ohio River, with the equipment and all other property and appurtenances connected therewith. A SINKING FUND OF SIOO,OOO PER AX XUM IS PROVIDED FOR THE REDEMP TION OF THE BONDS, TO TAKE EFFECT ONE \ EAR AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THE ROAD. The mortgage is J or §15,000,0f10 of which $2,- 000,000 will be reserved and held in trust for the redemption of outstanding Bonds of the Uirjinm Central Railroad < 'ompany, now merged in the CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO. Of the remaining $15,000,000, a sufficient amount will be sold to complete the road to the Ohio river, perfect and improve the portion now in operation, and thoroughly equip the whole for a large and active traffic. The present price is 90 and accrued interest. Loan so amply secured, so carefully guarded, and so certain hervaiter to command a prominent place among the favorite securities in the mar kets, both of mis Country and Europe, will be at once appreciated and quickly absorbed.
