FINANCIAL.
THE UNION PACIFIC
RAILROAD COMPANY.
THEIR FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS
AS AN INVESTMENT,
AS AN INVESTMENT.

The rapid progress of the Union Pacific Railroad,
now building west frcm Omaha, Nebraska and form
ing with its western connections, unbroken line
the continent attracts attention TO the value
ofthe First Mortgage Bonds which the Company now
offer to the public The first question asked by prudent
investors is "Are these bonds ?" Next, Are
they profitable investment" To reply In briet;-
First The early completion Of the whole great line
to the Pacific is certain any future business event
can be. The Government grant OF over twenty mill
lion acres ofland and hfty million dollars In its own
bonds practically guarantees 1t. one-fourth of the
work is already done and the track continues so be
laid at the rate OF two miles day.
Second. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds are issued
upon what promises to be OF the most profitable
lines of railroad In the country. For many years 1t
be only line connecting the Atlantic and Pa
ciAc and being without competition, 1t can maintain
remunerative rates.
Third S76 miles of this road finished and fully
equipped with depots, locomotives cars etc. and two
trains daily running each way. The materials for
the remaining l4l miles TO the eastern base of the
Rocky Mountains are hand, and it is under con-
tract to be done in September.
Fourth. The net earnings of the sections already
finished several times greater than the gold in
terest upon the First Mortgage bonds upon
tions and If not another mile Of the road built,
the part already completed would not only pay inte
rest and expenses but be profitable to the Company.
Fifth. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds be is
sued only the road progresses and therefore can
never be In the market unless they represent bona
pde property.
Sixth. Their amount IS strictly limited by law to
sum equal to what is granted by the United states
Government, and for which 1t takes second lien as
its security. This amount upon the first 57 miles
west from Omaha is only $1,000 per mile.
Seventh. The fact that the United States Govern
ment considers second lien upon the road good in-
vestment, and that some of the shrewdest railroad
builders OF the country have already paid In We mil
lion dollars upon the stock (Which is to them third
lien), may well inspire confidence in first lien.
Eighth Although it is not claimed that there be
any better securities than Governments, there are
parties who consider first mortgage upon such a
property this the very best security in the world
and who sell their Governments to renves In these
bonds thus securing greater interest
Ninth. AS the Union Pacific Railroad bonds are
offered for the present at 80 cents the dollar and
accrued interest," they the cheapest security In
the market being per cent less than United States
stocks.
Tenth. At the current rate of premium on gold
they pay

WHEN TO Cur GRAss.-The Maine
Farmer says: To what extent, and
in what way can our farmers adopt
some method of preserving hay, so
as to continue to their stock in win
ter the natural and superior food
furnished them by summer pastures?
When we remember what wet hay
seasons we often have, and how
much hay is damaged by being i'm
properly cured, on account of a long
succession of rainy or moist days,
during haying, the matter becomes
one of serious consideration. Let
us see what suggestions there are of
value to all farmers. We think the
following may be stated as among
them.
1. That we do not cut our hay
soon enough by several weeks.
2. That hay, by our present mode
of curing it, looses a large part of its
most valuable constituents.
3. That to be properly cured, it
should, when this operation is per-
formed, resemble dried grass cas-
much as possible; and that to accom-
plish this it only needs to remain ex-
posed to the air long enough, after
cutting, to have the water dried out,
without being all burnt up by the
SUM-
4. That the right time for cutting
grass is when it contains the largest
amount of matter soluble in water,
and not after this has changed to
woody matter, as it does when its
growth is passing, into seed. Any
farmer of practical knowledge and
observation can determine with sutfi-
cient accuracy when this period oc-
ours.

Fruit Preserving House.

w Brickham wrote in April to
his paper the Dayton journal from
Cleveland as follows:
From the aesthetical we proceed
ed to the practical, and inspected the
Fruit Preserving House Of Mr..
Nvce. an invention as curious as it
PROMISES to be valuable. 1t is a
building about fifty feet square for
the preservation of fruit, butter,
eggs, DC. 1t is constructed with
air tight chambers, and the tempera'
ture is kept with undertaking regu-
larity at S3t to 34-just above the
freezing point. 1t saves fruit ex-
actly in the state in which it was
plucked. A green apple plucked In
August and placed in one OF these
chambers, will be preserved in its
perfectly green state until the next
April or later Grapes plucked
when tb ey are ripe and held in their
plump form and lucious freshness
throughout the winter-and as we
know, until the 18th of April-with-
out change in flavor or form. The
inventor, with an air of proud salts
faction that was infinitely amusing
when we remembered Yankee par
tiality for the production, assured us
that he had preserved pumpkins as
freshly until now as when they were
gathered in the patch. One of our
party, who is partial to pumpkin
pies, confirmed the bosst by men
tioning his dessert at the Kennard
House, which was made of pumpkin
nicely preserved in the Nyce fruit
preserver. We saw grapes as we
have described. them, perfectly pre-
served, and nearly two thousand
bushels of apples in the same con-
dition precisely, to all appearance,
and to taste, as when they were gath
cred from the trees. How long they
will remain in this condition after
being taken from the Fruit, Preseryer
1 cannot say, but long enough, /
have no doubt, for a distant market
and reasonable consumption.
The philosophy of the thing is to
keep the fruit cold and dry-which
prevents decomposition. This Is
done by constructing the house some
thing after the principle Of a refrig-
orator. In fact, the house is nothing
but a mammoth refrigerator. But
the ice is placed on floor above
lined with sheet iron and made water
and air tight. On the floor beneath.
chloride of calcium, or the aoastebt
tern of salt is placed to absorb the
moisture. The apartments we enter
ed were as dry as a powder house,
and the air was so nearly exhausted
as to render the practice of breating
difficult in short time. The apart
ments were as cold as Mr.. Stewards
new purchase. There is one Of these
