AGRICULTUEAL , %
AdvantaRea of the Spring of 1881.
To the Editor of Tns BES :
Lite as the season ia with all ita
drawbicke , it has decided advantages.
It will probably be one of the best
seasons for tree planting which wo
have ever had. "We are gottlsg ac
quainted with our state and can fore
cast the seasons with a reasonable ex
actness.Vhenue find the air ex
tremely dry and little or no snow in
the mountains or plains , and the dry
blizzards wither all they touch , then
tro can have a reasonable fear of a dry
spring ; bnt when the air is charged
with moisture and it snows and rains
easily , when the plains and mountains
are burdened with snow , and the riv
ers all run with full or overflowing
banks , then we may count on plenty
of rain and abundant crops. Such
results we predict for this season.
When sufficient moiaturo releases the
treasures of earth and air and brings
all the wonderful reserve forces of na
ture into bountiful crops , you may
lock ft r astonishing results.
Chintz bugs and hoppers are things
of the past , and we can predict great
harvests. Years of plenty generally
follow years of drouth. The two laet
seasons opened dry and unpromising ,
and our average of products was low ,
with small grains at least , and the
ground has held its treasures in re
serve for stupendous displays , pro
vided the farmer can take
time by the foretop and keep up
TREE PLANTDfO.
Though wcrk will be crowded into
a bmall compass of time , yet tha
ground and the air are in such favor
able conditions , that all the planting
possible should be dona. In York
county alone it is estimated that one
million dollars will be required for
fuelin the next ten years ; multiply
this by other coun'.ies cf like needs ,
and the drain on the state will bo
tremendous. Those only can be
exempt from this nigh tax who plant
trees. Ten acres well cared for in a
few years will supply a family with
fuel ; white willow grows rapidly.
Fromtho window where I write
there is a row 7 years old now 20
feet hi h , and 4 inches through.
Stables could be made entire posts ,
poles and brush and all from this
hedge. The trees are large enough
for fence posts or rails. ICO acres
fenced with euch. a hedge would keep
a family in fuel and a farm in shed
material , and a compact grove would
bo a desirable shelter for cattle , and
would brake the force of winds if
planted on the north side of a dwellicg.
There is a great call for young trees
for timber claims this spring but they
cannot be had. These trees are gener
ally pulled ftlor.g the Missouri , just
before high water , but they could not
be obtained this year. Catting of
willow and cottonwood are in
fine order at.d will grow
readily this moist spring. And
from what experienced I have had
the seed of the honey locust ara a
fine thing .to plant. The two grow
rapidly , full as fast as bur elder , they
are worth twice as much , they grow
twice as fait as the ash. Tnoy will
make feaca posts or railroad ties in a
few years. I have known them to
make an inch a year in diameter , for
twenty years. It ia a strong healthy
native. The thorns may bs some
objection , but it is easy to dig out the
thorny ones for hedges ; leave the
smoothe ones for timber. They are
generally about half and half.
Did any of our farmers think how
easy it was to diversify a monotonous
prairie farm. A level farm may be
made to show variety , and fine effect
with a little thought. Suppose in a pai-
ture , or other vacant land , you plant
so as to give the appearance of a hill
or undulation. Take a rope , fasten it
to a Biake , nhtch Is to bo the center
of your grove , then tie a stake in
your rope , and describe a circle , six
feet outside of this , deecribe another ,
and QO on for a dozen rows if you like.
In the inside plant cottono d , in the
next circle white willow , next cat alp a ,
next honey locust , then box elder ,
then abb , then come tree of slower
growth. The effect in fifteen or twen
ty years will be fine , and a level farm
can be beautifully improved.
Lariat your farms ; keep them at
home. Suppose that , with no more
trees than wo have now , we should
have the terrible eprlng of ' 80 re
peated more land under cultivation ,
and the terrible blizzirda lifting your
farm in the air or piling it In drift * .
The very thought is appalling ; and
yet , what has been may be , and the
only remedy ia to plant largely. The
scientists of France and Germany de
cided long ago that to secure the moat
favorable climatic conditions , it wna
necessary to have at least ono-lifth of
the land in trees , and if that was
a necessity for those moist
climates , much more so ia It
incumbent on us to plant. So for
protection , for beauty , for comfort ,
for profit , plant largely. Your houses ,
fences mid bulHings ara all going
back down In value. It does not enhance -
hanco the value of your farm simply
to break , and lot it fill with weeds.
Your roalprific and improvement is
in trees. We have known well plant
ed farms in this state , with no build
ings to speak of , to sell for twice na
much a' others , all on account of the
home-like appearance of a grove , au
orchard , and wind-breaks , the first
cost of which was , perhaps , 550 so
let us all plant.

Winter Wheat Crop.
National Associated Prtss Report.
CHICAGO , April 18 Special advices
from wheat districts may bo sum
marized as follows from confidential
udvices to dealers hero who have
agents travelling through the wheat
country : The winter wheat districts
are Ohio , Indiana , Michigan , south
ern Illinois , Missouri , Kansas , Iowa ,
and southern Wisconsin. All advices
are to the effect that in the southern
portion the crop is looking bad ; in
the central portion , spotted , and in
the northern portion , the most prom
ising of either. lu places it it
difficult to tell , says one agent ,
whether any crop has been sown. One
very damaging cause is the recent ex
tremely variable weather. At night
the thermometer would go way down
and there would ba severe frost , and
the next day the sun woold come np
warm and thaw out. This alternate
freezing and thawing is dangerous to
the crops , which will take a least a
week or ten days cf good growing
weather to determine what the stand
will be. The increased acreage upon
which some have bated a calculation
of the crop is fallacious , as the se
verity of the weather will cut theyield
down for thirty to fifty per cent. A
man who has been over the Atchison ,
Topeka & Ssnta Fe road says crops
there will be divided between the good
and | bad , the good being early
sown end bad is that
which was put into ground
late ; the latter is at least seventy-five
per cent of the total seeding. In south
ern Wisconsin , where there was a
large acreage of winter wheat sown
last fall , the crap i substantially
lost. The spring wheat section is
Northern Illinois , Iowa , Nebraska ,
Dakota , .Wisconsin and Illinois. Tht
worst feature of the crops In these
sections is that not one-half of the
acreage usually sown to spring wheat
has not yet been even plowed. One
yo&r ago the seeding was substantially
completed at least ten days before
this time. List fall the severe
winter weather overtook the farmers
October 15fch , an unusually early dale ,
and when only a fraction I prt
of the wheat fields had been
plowed , and now when they should
be plowing the ground ia still
covered with snow. The season is
more than a month behind 1880. In
Iowa and Nebraska and northern Illi
nois the wheat was all eown at this
date last year , while now In those sec
tions people are actually drlvipg over
the wheat fields ; are abandoning the
line of roads because of enormous
snow fills which has drifted and made
ordinary thoroughfares impassible , the
snow being even with fences for miles.
Nina years in ton this is an exceptional
