SOME WELL-TIMED REMARKS B¥ DR. WARDER AND W. II. RAGAN ON FORESTRY ANDTIIE

RECKLESS DESTRUCTION OF THEM.

Revision of the Fruit List Some Arpics Fall to Faco the ttnstcr But Uin Rnmbos are Taken by

Consent. 4

This morning, on account of the al genco in California of Calvin Fletohor, who was to road a report on his horticultural observations in foreign countries, the time was filled by the reading of an address on "Fencing," by W. H. Kagan, Secretary of the society. The same will be published in full in the Indiana Farmer this week.

In treating this subject from a horticultural standpoint (and there is no doubt but it belongs to horticulture) the economic value of timber becomes a leading feature. Our timber supply is growing annually less, while the value thereof is steadily increasing. Our demands upon the resources that we have lett are also multiplying. It, therefore, becomes the duty of this and similar organizations to encourage the increase of our timber resources, and to discourage the useless waste that is now going on at a rate that is appaling. Items like the following taken irom the R9port of the Department of Agriculture for 1870, are, however, calculated to remind us to heed the warning: "Woodman spare that treo." In Jannary 18G6, there was brought to NewYork, from the West (perhaps from Indiana) a black walnut tree seventy feet long, containing 4,600, board measure, which, when cut into veneers, thirty to the inch, wou-ld be equal to 138,000 feet, worth, at 20 cents per footi $27,600. The estimate cost of cutting? carting and storing for sale was $700." This tree, had it been worked into rails and many a one just as good has fared this fate, would have made from twelve to fifteen rods of "good, lawful fence," that would have required on® or two revisions in twenty years. He went on further to dilate on the enormous waste of this course. He proceeded to show the cost of various kinds of fences.

Rail lences cost $2.60* per rod, picket fjnee, $1.95 and plank fence $1,75. The great question that presents itself is that of how to reduce this enormous expenditure. He did not favor the planting of hedges, but thought that there should be a universal co-opera-tion of all in encouraging the growth of large torosts.

Following this DR. JOHJ? A. WARPER, President of the Ohio Horticultural Society, made some very well-timed remarks on forestry. He had been horrified to learn that some men were now paying $15 per acre for the extermination of trees in order to plant with corn. They look only to immediate profit. He favored the planting of locust trees. Locust timber makes the best fences. Twenty years ago he had occasion to repair an old fence on his farm. He fouud some very solid heavy rails, which on. cutting into he found to be locust. He made inqniries and found that those rails had then

BEEN IN USB FORTY TEARS.

They are still sound and good, making an aggregate service of from fifty to sixty years. Locust trees also have a tandeucy to remove the clitus-pietusca most pesterous insect.

After the conclusion of the Doctor's remarks, a report of the proceedings at toe meeting of the STATE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY AT TO-

IiBDO LAST FALL

byJ.D. Hampton, twas read. The Society seems to have preferred the Wilson as the best strawberry. A number of new varieties of grapes were presented, among them the white Concord seedling, Martha, Lady and Eva.

Plums were also discussed at length and the Lombard German prune, Smith Orleans and wild grass varieties were favored. The ravages of the plum curculio was then thoroucly discussed and resulted in the remedy by Prof. Cook of Michigan. He said: The beetle and weasel or snout beetle, may be fouud in creyices during winter and under boards fcc., in spring. As soon as the plums set the beetles commence to lay their eggs. Their work can be easily known by the crescent cut .about the egg juncture which has given the* name of Little Turk to the weevil. This work of egglaying goes on till July 1st,* after which time the curculio is not generally common enough to do any harm. The in. sect upon jarred will fall to the earth.

The old remedy is to arrange upon a cart or wheelbarrow,an umbrella shaped top, made of canvass thus being concave upwards. This has a slit so that it can pass under the tree, so that its center is noar the, trunk of the tree. When in this position th» tree is suddeniy jarred by striking.

The curculio fall upon -the inverted umbrella' sloped canvas, and are gathered up and scalded.

It is found while the season is: cool, during May, and into June, the weevil leave the tree by day, and at night go up again into the tree. Hence the Ran. lorn trap. This trap was then explained at length.

The liouw ,tjb(^ at once to

REVISION OF THE FRUIT U»T. Messrs. Warder,"Keeler and Furnas were

selected a committee to' conduct the revision. Dr. F'arnas was called to the chair, which position he filled to the.general satisfaction, making good

gain.

There is something indescribably paintul to one whose tastes and occupation has made him a lover of trees,, to witness their indiscriminate and oftentimes unnecessary destruction, and when one in middle life goes back to the home of his boyhood, and looks in vain for the trees shat marked its sight, and finds, perchance, nailed to the stump of one of his favorites, a board advertising cheap lots, he feels like fleeing for sympathy to some deep wood, "Where the rude axa, with heav'ed stroke "Wea never heard the nymphs to daunt."

Your real estate speculator has to regard trees as his natnral enemies, or more truthtaliy, he is their natural enemy, at least this is ^true in the neighborhood of large cities and the first thing done in order to bring lots available into the market, according to his notion, is to throw down fences, and expose shrubbery and trees to the ravages of cattle, and then finish with the axe, what the cattle are unable to destroy.

Handsome houses, or houses so far as money can make them so, are of course numerous in large cities. Handsome intrinsically so far as architecture is concerned, but sometimes painfully out of harmony.with their surroundings. We see for instance, a costly mansied, with pretentious towcovered all over with garnish ornamentation, that ought to cling to some mountain side, or crown the summit of some gentle bill, with wooded park about it, and winding, approach through clumps of ahrubbery, and fountains and statuary, to make a harmonious abode, crowded in an ordinary corner lot, with a grass plat in front as large as one's hand, so closely shaven as to show like stubble land at harvest home. You glance at the windows: the blinds are closed, the sun may not look in upon the seclusion of wealth, as displayed, or rather hidden in magnificent carpets and curtains, and furniture too grandly beautiful to be desecrated by vulgar use. Commend me to tbe bouse tnat is a house all over. Whero every room and nook are common ground for old and young. Where the furniture is not afraid of the children, nor the children of the furniture, nor the haunts of either but what, all through the house, the patter of little feet and the gleeful music ol little voices may be heard. And, on inclement days, when the dripping trees and shrubbery drive all under roof, chairs are turned into chariots, and the shovel and tongs into horses, and the whole house is full of the noisy joy of happy children. And where, on all days there is the children's hour, between the dark and daliuht. •'When the night is begining to lower",when the father throws off the business cares of the day, as all fathers should, and, down on ail- fours, im-

rovised into a horse or elephant by rollicking children, capers about over the floor with his shouting trefcsr ures on his back.

Mr. Morris is evidently a sincere lover of nature. He revels in the delightful companionship of forests finds thoughts in trees, books in running brooks and good in everything. His essay was well delivered and well received.

The next thing on the programme was fruit report for the Sixth District, by by Benj. Parker, of Raysville Peaches, it seems, were killed in Central Indiana by the celdof the first days of last December. The unexpected freeze ot April destroyed our apples pears,plums, quinces, cherries and currants. It was the most complete destruction ever known. Smallfrnit gave a moderate crop. Tbe leading growers in this district aypear to be John Cook and Reuben Morris.

Mr. W. A. Ragan, of Ciaytoh, reported for the Seventh District. He stated that the whole thing could be condensed in one word—failure. Prominent among tbe fruit growers in his section, he mentioned James Ferguson, Reuben Ragan, Joshua. Lindiey and Aaron Aldridgal The early and faithful efforts of these men were richly blessed by an abundant crop, and as fine specimens of rich and luclous fraits as probably the eye or palate ever feasted .on. The early absence of a market, and the plentifulness of the frnit, badly discouraged the planting of orchards. The enormous demand for frnit at the present time, will spur us all to action.

TERRB HAUTK DISTRICT.

The fruit report for the Terre Haute district was prepared by Mr. Lawrence Heinl. His report was, in substance as follows: '•J.\ i-]

The fruit crop of 1875 has been almost an entire failure, although the prospects for a good crop of all kinds of fruit was never better. When winter set in/ tbe trees were in a good condltion.vrIn the spring, every tree, bush and Tine tried to do its duty: strawberries, cherries, and In fact, all kipds of fruit trees and vines were covered with bloom. But alas! the- cold snap on tho®*^ one entire fruit prospects., The fraist also killed a good many insects espec-

He recommended the following varieties of apples for this district. Ben Davis, Gelpen Kawles Janet, Grimes Golden Pippin, Rome Baauty, Red Yandevore, Pippin, Clayton Wine Sap, Maiden Blush Rambo and some others. His report on pears did not favor warfs for clay soil, He thought that there was considerable money in growing plums. He took up each of the various kinds of fruits and treated of their twelve-months history Mr. Heinl's report was the.most complete of all those read before tbe society. The company was. highly entertained during the afternoon by some descriptive remarks by Dr. Warder Tbe doctor is a very walking encyclopedia of knowledge on subjects of horticulture.

Dr. Furnas read his "Report of tbe Delegates to the American Poraologic al Society," which met in one of the halls of the Grand Pacific Hotel, Chicago, on Sept. f. It was the fifteenth biennial session of the society. One of the main features of the meeting was the address by President Wilder. It appeared that the association has been in existence for 28 years. Rather full remarks on fruit culture were made, and special attention paid to the I INSECT TRIBES.

A fitting tribute was tendered to the memory of the dead, and some extensive preparations proposed for the centennial. When the reading of this report had been completed the task of re vising the frnit list was again turned to and finished after which the meeting adjourned until this evening.
