The War Department has authorized the or
ganization of one or more regiments of heavy
artillery in Ohio, ON condition that the regiment
or regiments be completed by the 10th of May,
failing which the recruits are to be transferred
70 other artillery or infantry regiments. The
time given to raise and organize the regiments
is short, and the work should be commenced at
once. 1t is one of the most pleasant branches
of the service and if taken hold ofearnestly and
with energy, a regiment or two can be recruited.

MEssRs EDIToRs.-While travelling in Cana
da late November 1862, I stopped over night at
the house of Brackett & Shaw, and while there
| was much surprised to see the shade trees
around the house infull eafapparently as green
as in Jnne. On inquiring the cause, I was in
formed they retained their foliage simply by IN
serting piece of pork rind in the butt of the
tree in the Spring previous. L tried the expert
ment on one tree last spring with complete sue
cess.
My tree was a crotched one, the prongs COM
ing down within two feet of the ground With
a two-inch auger / bored into the crotch about
five inches, giving the auger slant ofabout for
ty-fve degrees This hole lined up with a
pork rind leaving it sticking out about am inch.
Up to the time of writing this, the tree retains
its leaves and has the same green appearance as
in June. If you think this worthy your no.
tice, please insert it in your paper.
