improve the opportunity to plant fifty bushels of black walnuts, as well as some hickory and white oak, as I am satisfied that we must plant timber that has some commercial value Do you recommend fall or spring planting of nuts, how deep should the different kinds be covered? Fifteen years since I obtained bushel of butternuts, and distributed them among the farmers of Pottawattomie county. They were planted, came up, lived, some one year, some two, and now every one is dead, and to-day only know of one single tree in this county that is bearing nuts, and for the first time, and only few young ones in the nurseries, and brought from abroad.
 There is something very singular about the fatality of our soil to the chestnut, beach, sugar maple and white butternuts, while they all do well and most of them are indigenous to the Des Moines valley Yet after repeated efforts I have never been able to make single tree of either of the varieties mention ed, grown from the nut, live for more than two years neither do know of any living specimens in western Iowa, except such as may be in our nurseries. This fall shall again make the experiment. with ehestnuts and white walnuts, as we at first had equally bad luck with our fruit trees. It is certainly remarkable that of the butternut and sugar. maple, so common in central Iowa, there is not single indigenous specimen in Western Iowa.
 My first experiment. in e-planting was Wl6n cOGGonWOOu5 u1ue years dSo, "hon | Pu" out l., ,OOO in a grove six feet apart. These trees have made varied growth, some of them being ten inches through and thirty five feet high, and many not over three inches through and about the same height Many were killed by gophers, others decayed with out known cause, so that now not over seventy-five per cent. remain. Whenever the cottonwoods die I refill with white ash. do not consider cottonwood groves success9 Since then have put out some 15,000 white and green ash, black walnuts, eatalepas, alan thus, and black cherries and planted some thirty bushels of black walnuts. The wal nuts were three years old when bought of Douglass & Sons, sent to me in the fall and carefully covered up in the ground till spring, and when taken out and planted were found to be somewhat mouldy, and have generally made a bad growth, three fourths at least having died. The other trees have done remarkably well, but require as much cultivation as corn. Very little tim Der or wood is now required for farming purposes, since wire fences and cob fuel have come into use, and am satisfied that tree growing as a matter of profit is too expensive, except such varieties as will be used and shipped for manufacturing purposes

In reply to the many inquiries which we havere ceived regarding a most prominent modern remedy, we would say: To the best of our belief Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver Cure is pure in it's nature, efficient in it's ac- tion and certain in its results. We have learned of some remarkable cures which it has effected, and believe that as preventi- tive of disease it is unequalled. For delicate ladies and enfeebled men it is invaluable, and itspure vegetable qualities commend it to the favor of all. OPS eod2w2tw

A correspondent of The Iowa State Regis ter writes Last spring I put on my farm 2,OOO black cherries, 2,OoO catalpas, and 2, 1000 white oaks, and was eongratulating myself with their fine growth, when Mr. Foote, 8 neighboring farmer, informed me that In Connecticut, where he was raised, the grow ing of black cherry trees along the highways was prohibited by law, as the leaves were poisonous to cattle that eat them. Now, not wishing to poison my neighbors' cattle, will you please state the fact about the poisonous qualities of these trees? As have set this variety along my fences, to be used eventual ly as living posts, will you let me know if they are proof against hungry cattle and horses as well as sheep? If not they must place.
