Head Crfnre the Northern Illinois llorllculturnl Society, at freeport, January, 1673. BV W. E. X.UKEXS, OF ROCK FALLS. It requires no lktlo fortitude and moral courage to approach the hack noyed subject of treo planting. It has been do often and so elaborately discuHMjd nt our meetings by persona much more familiar with the subject than I, that it ia really embarrassing to attempt to sny a word on the sub ject. But if what I may say will be the menus of inducing one man to plant a thousand, or even a hundred tretrt, it will pay for the time spent in reading this short esany. Our arguments and appeals to the people to do a more extended busi ness in this Hup, are shorn of much of their Influence by the suspicion that we are incited by interested mo tives. Because some of us are nur serymen, and have youuc tress to sell. they seem to think we are devoid of that tmbllc spirit whioh would prompt ua to urge this matter irrespective of any pecuniary advantage to ourselves. Bat they should remember that nur serymen and orchnrdists have necssa rily given to the subject of trees more nttentlon than they who are merely raising corn and beef, and devoting their exclutive attentlou to these pur Miltfi. Not long ago I asked a farmer, the owner of half a dozen large farms, if he had ever thought of planting any of his land in forest trees. With a cunning smile he asked, "Will they produce beef?" This wju all the re ply ho made. I mention this to show that this man, though a successful and intelligent farmer, seemed never to think of any plan of drawing wealth from hia land but by raising beef. Of course the idea of raising trees was new to him, us it is to thou sands When they Boe the advanta ges of thhj as they do that of otbej pursuits, they will bo smart enough to engage In it. But suppose the trees do not pro duce beef, they produce value The farmer sells his beef year after year and the avails lie re-invests in land or other property, or Jouns It at inter est, till fiually he dies and leaves it to his heirs. If it can be shown that with a given capital the farmer can leave more to his heirs "at death by plauting trees than by raising beef. Mild that, too, with leas work and ex posure, it would only bo business like to adopt this plan. But it is not suggested to auy farm er to plant all his land in trees, by any means. If each owner of one hundred and sixty acres of laud would plant six or eight acres, it would make but a small inroad on hi beef-raising; and quite likely the nhelter these trees would furnish his cattle in summer and winter would actually augment his profits on beef. But not. one farmer in teii is likely Tory t-oon to plant even that much of his land in trees. A few, therefore, might plant fifty orone hundred acres to great advantage, looking solely to the Halo of his crop for the profit. f ho most common, in fact the only objection assigned is, that they have to wait too long for return of capital and pay for labor expended. Thi3 would be a valid objection to one who could not reasonably expect to make a living off the balance of his land not planted In trees; but to one who has enough left to make a living, or who has other sources from which to draw, the objection is not good. Ev ery dollar a prudent, economical man makes over the amount necessarily consumed by himself and family is only so much yearly augmentation of Ills wealth, whatever shape It maT assume, whether in land, stock, uten sils, household furniture or bank stock. Thus every year he Is laying up his surplus earnings for the future, which ho rarely oxpends, and never nlms to part with it uutil ho leaves It zm a legacj to his heirs. In the choice of means, then, that w)iich would brflig him the greatest amount in the end, with the least toil and tnontal euro, It would be wisdom to adopt. I am well awnre that any calcula tion wo may make for years to como may prove to be uncertain. So it is with everything else. But we can approach this more nearly than we .can in any other business, particular ly thht- of raising corn. There is much more certainty that timber will command a remunerating price iu ten or fifty j-ears rhence than that corn will ; for the profit on corn depends very much on tho demand for whis ky, which wo all wisli to see dimin ish as fast as possible. When wo ceaso to use whisky, a tithe of tho corn now raised will glut the market. Thero are many kinds of trees that can be plauted, from which we may expect profitable returns; but I feel well assured that'tho European linrch Is tho most profitable for fenco posts or fence boards, or railroad ties. Of course, as soon as they are large enough they can be used for 'almost any kind of building purposes. In planting them it is probable that four feet apart each way would be the proper distance, or about twenty-seven hundred to the acre. The plants, two to three years old, cost say from eight to fifteen dollars per thousaud. Two dollars per thousand will be a sufficiently high estimate for plant ing the trees. With these data any farmer can estimate the coht of plant ing per acre, as all are familiar with preparing ground for corn and culti vating it, which must be very nearly the same as that for these trees. Any one who takes tho pains will readily see that the expense of fifty acres of larch for tho llrat ten years, Including interest on land worth fifty dollars per acre, cost of plants, pro paring the ground, planting, and cul tivating two or three years, with ten per cent, compound interest on each Investment, will amount to about $5,000. At that timo three-fourths of the trees chould be thinnod out, leav ing them eight foot apart. These, if worth fifteeu cents each, will amount to over ulo.000, or a clear profit of $10;fm If this sum is kept at com pound Interest for twenty years itwill amount to $5S,564, supposing it to double in every eight years. But at twenty years wo may cut three fourths of the balance, or twenty-five thousand tljree hundred and twelve trees, worth at that time at least two dollars each, or $50,624. This-at eoni pound'interest for ten years will ain't to about $122,500. We then have left eight thousand four hundred and thirty-seven trees thirty years old, worth not less than tou dollars per tree, or $34,370 an aggregato profit of $265,0G4 iu thirty years from fifty acres of land. But If you plant corn every year on fifty acres, allow it to produce forty bushels per acre, and sell at fifty cents per bushel, aHow interest on tho net profit each year at compound rate for the tame time, or thirty years from first planting, you will not get it high er than $00,000 or $70,000. Thus we find the trees will yield a profit of $195,0C4 more than the corn crop at fifty cents a bushel. It will be seen that in this calcula tion the trees at ten years are put at wiecii cems eacn, winle Uie probabil ty is they will bo worth nenrfir'spvnn- ry-flve cents. But if each tree will tv mane tnree outs five feet long, a good fenco can be made from them by in serting them one foot into the ground nine iuohea apart, and nailing anoth- er on the top to keep them steady. It would require eight of these poles to mako a rod of fence, which at fifteen cents each would only bo one dollar and twenty cents per 'rod. All can see that this is a very low estimate of the value of such poles o3 they will be at that age. Mr. gohofield found that hlB, at twelvo years old, averag ed three posts, worth seventy-five cents. But if they should happen to be worth fifty cents each at tan years, which is quite likely, then "sre will have a clear profit of $45,437 equiva lent to $1,543 per year for the first ten yeai-a, the least profitable time we are growing the trees. Is it not strange that so few are Itr ed into a business so profitable m lit tle liable to loss by fire, flood or drought, or low prices, and so entire ly exempt from that care and anxiety incident to tile sale of farm crops, where a thousand circumstances tend to fluctuate prices? What farmer does not know how difficult it is to determine the exaot time to s-ellto git the be.-'t prices for his products? How often do they hold over for larger pri ces and get less? Why not have something growing on which they can rely with more certainty? But there is another strong reason why we should go more extensively into this business. It is admitted by all who pretend to a knowledge of the subject, that our present available timber will be exhausted, even at the present rate of consumption, in about twenty-five j'ears. This fact alone should alarm every one to do hia shaie iu warding otY the impending calam ity of a total exhaustion of lumber, and of timber to supply more. An cient Egypt had to wage a war of con quest on Syria for timber when her own territory failed to .supply the de maud. But where Is the timbered Syria for us to conquer when ouro is gone? If we had British America, and the supply there was unlimited, the freight alone would more than equal present prices. Currents of air and currents of wa ter are subject in many particulars to the same law. We see iu a flowing river that the lower portion of the current is retailed by friction, and moves more slowly than tho surface, especially where the bed of the stream is covered tnicKiy witn rocKs ami boulders. So in currents of air, ev ery tree, whethersmall or large, pre sents an obstacle to the wind, and di minishes the velocity in proportion to the obstruction. W belts of trees, eight rods wide, every half mile, ex tended all over our country, in a few years it would so dimiuiih the veloci ty of the winds that countless bless ings, advantages and comforts would flow therefrom. Yet these belts would only require eigh acres to every one hundred and sixty There are probably three hundred thotiMimi square mile of treeless ter ritory in ttie Mi-sis-uppi Valley that will soon be covered ty population. Allowing eaeli Mjtmre mile to have six miles of fence, requiring over six ty thousand feet of boards and three thousand eixht hundred and forty posts, and allowing the fence to hist filteeu year, it w II require four thou sand feet of boards and two hundred and fifty-six posts per year for each mile. The average lake, river and rail road freights would be at least eight dollars per thousand, and two cents each for posts, making a sum of thirty-seven dollars per year freight on fence material for each -section of land. It is safe to say that there is four times this amount used for other purposes, so that it is fair to conclude that we pay one hundred and eighty five dollars" freight on lumber each year for every square mile of territo ry, or $55,500, 000 freight on lumber alone in the Mississippi Valley. If Congress were to build railroads to the lumber regions, ami deliver lum ber to us free of charge for transpor tation, we would have to help foot the bill by our share of taxe.-, but who would not be rejoiced to find a plan by which these fifty-five millions of dollars a year could be saved in a few Western States, that we now pay chiefly to railrond companies? But thero is just such a phwi within our reach. The earth and the sun, with their exhaustlessaud incomputable forces; are at all times ready and willing to bring to our very doors all tho timbpr we shall want for lumber and fuel for thousands of years. They say, "On ly plant the seeds and we will grow you the timber at your homes, where it is needed, as easily as we do in the distant forests, that you now have to raft down your rivers, or transport over your lakes, or rattie thousands of miles over your railroads. Wo snail not disappoint you. We never spend our forces in vain. Wo follow Na ture's law; or, rather, we are part of great iSaturo herselt. We are con stant workers. We spend no time idly. We do not even rest on the Sabbath day. But be not alarmed ; we work so silently that at your very churoh doors your devotions will not be marred by our activities. Even at night when you sleep, or on Sunday when you worship, wo are silently building up the tissues that shall pro tect you from wintry storms and sum mer suns, and 'temper the winds to tho shorn lam.' We are constructing material that shall be an ornament to your dwellings, a protection to your harvests, and an essential purtofyoun great railroad system." Will we reject this munificent offer or will we with grateful hearts ac cept it? Let us wisely do our part, and Mature will rigidly comply with all her proiLU'-es. In this way the western country u.1 save in a hun dred years double tho 5Iouut of our present national debt, in freights on lumber alone. It is said by some one of late, that the European Larch is not so durable as has been represented by writers, who uniformly regard it as the most durable timber known. It is possible that trees of this variety grown sing ly in the open field will not last so long as timber grown on poor soil, or in a dense forest, where they grow more slowly. We who have experi ence with oak and locust know that that is the case with them. A post of either of these timbers will not last a fourth so long when taken from a field grown tree as it will n taken from the forest. I have no doubt, there fore, that when wo grow larch thick ly, and consequently more slowly, it will preserve the character that has been awarded to it by Europoan writers. I will add further, that there are a great many ridges throughout our country too sandy for profitable farm ing on which can be grown box elder and Scotch pine. I should much pre fer the latter. Instead of these un sightly sand hills which now so dis disfigure the landscape, we shall soon see iutersjersed, all over the country, ridges and knowls of beautiful green emblems of life instead of death.
