influence Of Trees on Climate.

The subject Of the influence Of
"foresting," or the planting of trees,
upon the climate OF country, and Of
"de-foresting." or destroying the for.
est growth, continues to excite much
interest throughout tho world, Is it
is now well established that the eli
mate OF many localities has been ma
terially altered by one or the other
Of these processes. Systematic efforts
have been made, in different parts Of
the world. for introducing growth
Of trees where these had either disap-
peared or had never been known,
from which important results have
followed in many instances. We have
before referred to the effect upon the
climate of India of planting extensive
forests of different species and We
are informed that, as the consequence
of similar experiment, Egypt, which
formerly had only about six rainy
days every year, since being replant-
ed on large scale, has already at
tanned to twenty-four. Among the
enlightened measures of the admins
tration Of the French government,

that OF planting immense tracts Of
land in Algiers, especially with Aus
tralian trees namely the Aoscse ssel-
l.ssims and Acacia epAantAs. Planta-
t,ohs OF these trees, started . few
years ago, have attained . height Of
from nine to twelve feet, and in their
rapid growth and great extent have
already changed the climate very
much--twice as much RAIN and dew
falling in the neighborhood As before.

Land Grant to Soldiers.
From the Grand Army Journal.

From the Grand Army Journal]
The Grand Army Soldiers Home
stead bill, passed by the House Of
Representatives on the 3lst of jan
uary, las been referred by the Senate
to the consideration of the Committee
on Military Affairs. Of the seven
Senators composing the committee four
are ex-soldiers, two have served as
War Governors, and but one-How-
ard, of Michigan-is known to be op-
posed to the bill. There is every
prospect Of an early and favorable re-
port Of the bill to the Senate for &C.
ton.
Preparations to take advantage of
the benefits of the act should be COM
menced Immediately. We ask that
each Department Commander of the
Grand Army shall interest himself
personally in the work, and take meas
ures to organize a soldiers colony
among the veterans within his iuris-
diction. Whenever sufficient num-
Der of members of q Post shall be
favorably disposed, the nucleus of a
colony should be established and meas
ures be taken to foster and perfect it,
1t will not be necessary that a colony
should be composed entirely of SOL
diers.
A proper proportion of citizens may
be embraced to represent disabled SOL
diers, and to occupy their claims. An
organization effected and preparations
under way, a committee should be ap-
pointed to proceed to the Territories
and select a proper site. There is no
doubt that favorable arrangements
may be made with railroad companies
for this purpose, and afterwards for
the transport of the colony. The con-
ductors Of the Grand Arny Journal
will make it their duty to furnish to
colonies all attainable information,
maps, charts and suggestions that may
be valuable to them, and the Commits
sioner of Public Lands will, we are
sure, render every service in his
power. We are anxious that all col
onies organized to take advantage of
this act shall spring from the Posts Of
the Grand Army in order to secure
unity Of action and mutual aid and
support. AS an enthusiastic Congress
sional friend of the bill and the SOL
der has observed, we may even hope
to organize in the Territories asoldiers
State. Let the Department officers of
the Grand Army of the Republic take
Immediate hold Of this work and push
it rapidly forward. i

MISUNDERSTANDING of our most
thoughtful agriculturists all through
the country are calling attention to
the planting Of hedges and belts Of
trees to serve as windbreaks. The
understanding destruction Of our
forests has been an incalculable injury.
Trees are protection against droughts
and against severe winds. By protec-
ton against the winds all our crops
would be benefited, and our homes
made more pleasant.
The effect Of winds on our pear crops
is one of the most obvious examples
of the loss we .sufer from them. Often
single wind-storm will blow from the
pear-tree large number of their fin
est specimens, and the owners hopes
of pleasure and profit from his fruit
are blasted. Not unfrequently peach
trees, exposed to the sweeping winds
of spring, give no crop, while but a
few rods distant, trees that are pro-
tected yield abundantly.
The farmers cannot too soon turn
their attention to the matter. 1t is
of the deepest importance to them,
whatever branch of agriculture they
may follow. By careful foresight,
they can often preserve belts Of trees
on their farms, which will give some
returns by an annual yield Of wood
and timber, which will add much to
the beauty Of the farms, and which
will be invaluable as a protection
against winds. We have often visited
a farm of forty acres in Vineland, the
owner of which has taken the wisest
care in preserving a belt of the native
growth Of trees around every field
wherever it was possible for him to do
so. Each of his fields thus has a
beautiful setting Of green, and he al
ready experiences a benefit in the shell
ter afforded. - Vineland Journal.
