? ---With the rapid destruction of our for

tivation in Eomo practical form/ T4iis
subject is receiving special attention in
^ some, par ^of the West,t and individual?
dkrinlrs;- communities, and clubs, arc Bet
ting put trees on large scale; will it not
' pay in New England ? THe production
of wood for fuel and mechanical purposes
would, no doubt;, haven greater1 ititercst.
u fpfyth.0 100, vague ideas of the slowness of
tr^flurawtiu rrCfe^0 ftrc tre9-s? that with
proper c'ultivtui?if wnr*groh;'very rapidly
''some, it is said, will acquire a circum
''-'ference in five years of from eight to ten
inches. With" this rapidity of growth, it. is
easily seen that a few acres in a short
time, with, the prospects of a scarcity
nna^ a ljig\i price of timber, would make
a valuable product. We mention differ
ent Wiifds^ of? trees which | are especially
vnlnuble for their wood and fruit .which
are easily cultivated.' One is the chesnut
which is already a speciality with nurse
ry-nien, who,, provide the small trees.
But they can be grown from the seed.
This kind of tree is adapted to rough,
un tillable laud, much of which has been
cleared up, and is now going to waste.
"The maple,'which is of a little slower
growth than thc^ chesnut, yut grows rap
idly, and the wood is very valuable some
varieties are especially adapted to wet
swampy iniida. For ornamental foliage,
aud for the sugar, the maple should bo
ouc of the most popular, and the timber
is getting to bo almost as valuable for
mechanical purposes as some of the
forc^jh \A>ody.t* It was once stated thnt
one ash trcGeis this country made over
3,000 rake handles, The tree was seventy
feet high wilhouta limb. We have thus
spoken of forest tree culture as 11 source
of Pfojfit,?and?*nuch more wiU be said, we
arc ftfrc, of the practicability of this cul
turo after it has been tried, for it is com
paratively a new subject, and needs at
least to 1 cexperimented upon to get the
facts. That H^vill pay, on a small or
large scale there can be uo question, if
there was no other object but to raise
trees for their timber?but wc want
more trees for their fruit, for their shade
swaud protection, for-fuel, and especially
for tie climatic influenco: for thedesfruo
tj[ie clin
vof om
tioh^f^our*forests has unquestionably
had the effect the turn away the full ol
rain, causing the. drying up of springs
and the decrease of supply for our water |
power fed* by the small streams. If trees
were planted on the hill tops of New
Hm^hirid, they would break the force of
storms, shielding from the wiuds, and
increase the fall of rain. Tree planting
by the way .side or in the orchards should
receive more attention, and it may become
a department in agriculture which will
be as successful us any onlher. [New

V
Grafting Potatoes.
A correspondent of the Rural New.
Yorker advises the grafting of potatoes,
in order to combine the good qualities of j
two sorts. There are two difficulties in
the way of success; first, the pieces of po
tato stuck together will not unite, for the
reason that the tubers, when planted,
usually decay as the germs 3pring forth;
and secondly, if they did unite, the qual
ity of (Llijc produce from this, so called
grafting would not bo influenced, except
as the roofs from the eye pierced the other
section-of potato, and then simply as fin
the case of any sap taken up. N evert he
il lesii, for the benefit of the curious wc give
the modus operandi:
Select of the potato which has your
preference the very best and soundest
specimens, cut out in a careful way, with
a pen-knife, the buds or eyes; cut them
out about one inch deep and one inch
and one-half to three-fourths of an inch
in diameter, in fhe form of a pyramid,
e., that t^ie hole in tho potat ) runs into a
point on the end or inside; then take of
the other potato a piece, if possible, with
from one to three buds ortoyes; lit it in as
good and tight as you possibly can and
tic up with a (.bass) string in tbequickest
possible manner. To fasten the inserted
piece more effectually, n hair pin may bo
. ,pqt in from each side. Potatoes grafted
in this manner should be, as soon as this
operation is perfected, placed in damp
ground and weil covered up. If the cuts
grow cut?that is if the two different
pieces join?the operation ia a success.

In order that our patrons may be kept fully informed relative to the security and progress of
the Company, on v/hieh thousands are greatly relying for the future welfare of the families, wo
take pleasure' in Submitting the foregoing statement, which wc trust may be as satisfactory to
them as it is gratifying to im.
During the year 1873, the income of the Company was ?1,043,249,70. whilst the total outgo
of the Company for the same period was $529,006,41, leaving the net inoome for the year $1,114-,
183,29, augmenting the assets of the Company to $2,248,020,35, January 1st, 1874. The entire
liabilities of the Company, at same date, embracing the reserve on policies in force and losses
reported and maturing, amounts to $1,76,943,385. which, deducted from n^-tets, leaves a surplui,
as to policy-holders, of $304,646,69.
In view of the monetary panic during the four last months of the past year, at a time, too,
when our receipts should be the largest, it is a source of satisfaction to the management and a
gratifying evidence of confidence of our patrons, that the Company is among the few that shows
increase of business and asset*. Commencing the pa?t success of the Company as an earnest of
continued prosperity, we earnestly solicit the cooperation of our patrons in extending our business
and usefulness A. II. COLQUITT, Vice President.

VINEGAR BITTERS
Dr. J. Walker's California Vin
egar Bitters aro a purely Vegetable
preparation, made chiefly from tbo na
tive herbs found on tbo lower ranges of
the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor
nia, tbo medicinal properties of which
aro extracted therefrom without tbo uso
of Aicobol. Tbo question is almost
daily asked, "What is the cause of tbo
unparalleled success of Yixtsgar IJit
tkrs?" Our answer Is, that thoy roniovo
tbo cause of discaso, and tbo pationt re
covers bis health. Thoy are tbo great
blood purifier and a life-giving -principle,
a perfect Renovator and Invigorator
of the system. Never before in tbo
history or the world has a modicino been
compounded possessing tho rontarkablo
qualities of Vi.nkoarBittkrs in healing tho
Gick of every discaso man is heir to. Thoy

Vikeqar Bittkrs aro Aperient, Diaphoretic,
Carminative, Nutritious, baxative, Diuretic,
Sedative, Counter-irritant Sudorific, Altera

Grateful Thousands proclaim Vin

vigorant that ever sustained th? sinking
system.
No Person can tako these Bitters
according to directions, and remain long
unwell, provided their bones aro not de
stroyed by mineral poison or other
means, and vital organs wasted beyond
repair.

anoke, James, and many others, with
their vast tributaries, throughout our
entire country during tho Summer and
Autumn, and remarkably so dining sea
sons of unusual beat and dryness, aro
invariably accompanied by extensive de
rangements of the stomach and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exciting a pow
erful influence upon these various or
gans, is essentially necessary, Tbero
is no cathartic for |lio purpose equal to
I)n. J. WALjcku's Vinkgar Bin-Kits,
as thoy will speedily remove tbo dark
colored viscid matter with which tbo
bowels aro loaded, at the same time
stimulating tbo secretions of the liver,
ami generally restoring tho healthy
functions of the digestivo organs.

most obstinate and intractable cases. ?
For Inflammatory and Chronic

of these Bitters.
Pin, Tape, and other Worms,
lurking in the system of so many thousands,
aro oli'octunlly destroyed and removed. No
system of medium?, no vermifuges, no nn

like these Bitters.
For Female Complaints, in young
or old, married or singlo, at the dawn of wo
manhood, or tho turn of life, theso Tonio
Hitters display so decided an influcnco that
improvement is soon perceptible
Cleanse tho Vitiated Blood when
ever you find its impurities bursting through
the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Soros;
cleanse it when you find it obstructed and
sluggish in tho veins: cleanse it whon it is
foul: yonr feelings will tell yon when. Keep
tho blood pure, and tbo health of tho system
will follow.
