The Growth of Woodland.

A correspondent Of the New England
Farmer, some time since, claiming to have
FORTY years experience as q woodcutter,
Tor fuel and lumber, said that not being
satisfied with guessing, he determined
when he cut wood from lot he would
find out, ii possible, how long 1t had been
growing, and then measure the land and
wood to find how much wood grew on en-
acre per year. This, lie says. II have
done with about eleven hundred acres in
the past forty years, and fad where the
wood cut was from twenty five to forty
years growth it will grow one cord OF
hardwood per aero yearly. Soit-wood
will grow enough more to make tho value
the same as hard wood Continuing the
subject, he says There arc in Mass
achusetts thousands OF acres of land good
for growing wood, but worthless to cult
yate, and Of little value for pastunng. My
rule for finding the value OF land to grow
wood is this: the land is worth The sum
that tho growing wood standing on the
lot will pay the interest on To make it
ore clear--if the wood is worth two dol
lars per cord standing, the land is worth
sixteen dollars per acre; allowing the mon
ey to double every twelve years or lit
tie less than six per cent compound inter
est, the value is in twenty four years S6i,
or twenty four cords OF wood at 80 per
cord, and Sl6 for land, the same as paid
twenty -four years before II the wood is
worth enc dollar per cord Standing the
land will be worth one half an much fig
urcd as above, or eight dollars per acre.
