Planting hersas,..


No timber is better worth planting
in fence-rows, kitchen yards, waste
plsces, or in regular plantations than
chestnut. For posts, rail, pickets,
stakes, or lumber, no timber is more
salable, grows quicker, or realizes a
better proportionste price: For
shade, chestnut trees are excellent;
dense, spreading, and handsome in
foliage. Once planted they need no
further attention, and whom ont down
reproduce themselves abundantly BY
means Of sprouts. We have cut
chestnut sprouts that were large and
long enough for four round posts, or
six, when the two lower ones were
split. and one rail besides. AT this
age they are large enough to split
into two heavy rails, worth now six
to eight cents each in q timber
country. We can not just now
think Of any crop that would pay
better than a few cases of thrifty
chestnut sprouts. There is but one
disadvantage, which is, that chests
nuts don't stand transplanting we'll.
They should, therefore, be planted
whore they are desired to grow.
Probably the best way to make q
plantation is to pillow the ground now
and mark out burrows six feet apart
each way, and at the intersections
drop three nuts ; cultivate the ground
one year then seed down to grass.
The grass and the shade together
will keep out weeds, and tho close
planting will cause the young trees
to shoot up straight and lengthy,
In five years a good many rails can
be cut out, leaving M tree at each
place. In a few years the plantation
will need thinning again, and sprouts
will have taken the place Of those
6rst out out.--HearM and Home.

Der Jaokson's Standard Scales
which were on exhibition at our

ceived favorable mention, and
would have been awarded . pre-

list for scales.
They are made At Burlington by
= Company Of which Mark S.Foote
one Of the leading oitisens Of that

Mr.. N. y. Julian is the general
travelling agent Of the Company and
has put scales in this city for
Adam Schworm and David Boyer,
and in the county for many Of our
best and most we'll known citizens,
including the Clapp Bros. Ben
Randell, John Kirkpatrick, Thomas
Foster and others.
The advantages claimed for The
Jackson's Scales over oil others are.
their simplicity of construction,
Sensitiveness, Durability and per-
feot Accuracy.
They require no pit.
The main Bars are made of
Wrought Iron. bearings and pivots
oftho best refined steel.
They have less points Of friction
than any other Scale now 10 use.
They work upon clevises without
injuripg or disturbing the pivots
when swayed to and fro by wagons
or trucks, and are made without
checkrods.
Should these Scales settle and be
out OF level to The extent Of ono
foot or more, they ban DO relied on
as perfectly correct, and will weigh
alike on the corners /: hence arc
particularly adapted to the weigh.
ing of stock, which cannot always
be kept on the center Of tho Scale.
The Hay and Stock Scales will
weigh accurately, form q lbs. to
several tons.
They require less timber and are
sold at lower prices than any other
Scales heretofore placed in the
market.
They furnish Brass Beams and
Box without extra charge.
The low price places them with.
in the reach Of every farmer, and
with q guarntee that will protect
them from imposition.
In addition to the indubltable
testimony offered BY our own
people, q TO their durability, sim.
plicity, accuracy and cheapness, xe
have before us similar testimony
from prominent merchants, shippers
and scientific mon elsewhere, who
have tested them, all to the same
favorable purport.
Every large farmer ought to have
3 pair Of scales on his place which
are reliable, to protect him from
