of the Hnciuy CAUSE OP TUB OHIO MOODS To the tiittjr As tho floods In tho vnllcy of tho Ohio np pear to bo IncrcaslitR In iniiguituilo from your to year It Is natural that tho inquiry should raise What causes this Tho usual nnsnor is Tho iloitructlon of tho forests To a certain extent this is truo but by proper management tho larger portion of tho forests may bo rcuinvcil without producing thlsoffoct Tho chief cause lies In a mlstukott tintlon of tho thrifty farmers of Ohio Indiana nnd wostcrn Pennsylvania who think it untidy to allow tho littles swalos drains rills nnd branches of tholr Holds to rotatn their natural fringe of shrubbery but remove this thus nllowlng tho wator a rapid and freo c3capo to tho channels that conduct it to tho larger streams From this causo tho water which falls In a heavy ralu is borno off In two or threo hours which would othorwlso bo as many days In making its way through thoso fringes of shrubbery and reaching a channel These appear utlnnto when considered sop nrntidv but when wu consider tho fact that thorn urn millions of them 111 tho volley of tho Ohio wo can easily itnaglno tho oUcct of this increased now on mo main stream niio which nil their waters fall Forests undoubtedly assist Very much In iletfidilnir thn water but tho samo result cau bo obtained by fringing theso Httlo twalos with liodecs nr borders of ehrubbory which will assist not only in checking tho rapid How of tlio water in limes ol Heavy rains or melting snows and thus provont thu il Isastrous nnd annually occurring Uoods but will also assist In shielding theso littlo rills from tho scvero drouth ol rummer Tho remedy thercfotc for thoso ovlls is to a largo extont In tho poiver and control of thu fnrmors of tho valley of thu Ohio Washington Fob 15 A To the Ktltlor Tho recent devastating floods in tho west mako it pertinent to inqulro if tbo proJcnt would not bo a proper tlmo to agitato tho sublect of tree culture and if somothlng cnunut be done by individual niunicipol und frovernmentni cliort to stimulate that Industry It is admitted on all hands that tho universal denudation of tho country of its treo covering is largely tho causo of our over recurring Hoods if tho agriculturists could bo brought to see tho force of this nnd to apply tho remedy whorovcr possible and es specially by planting trees on the hillsides along tho water courses und even by tho hldis of tho small brooks tho progress of tho water would bo rotarueu and tbo urulntiEO would be no gradual littlo or no damugo would ensuo Other benefits would also fol low By doluylng the progress of tho water Its absorptiou by tlio enrtu would bo greater and damage irom drouths materially loss enud Tho gradual drulnago would lessen tho wash of the soil which is now slowly but surely filling our larger streams to tho great iuterferonco of navigation It is hardly tiossibloto ovorestimato tho damage to tho country directly and indirectly caused by stripping tho land of its trees and oven ine low snruus mui useu to fringe ail tho water courses great and small If tho amount yearly contributed for tho reliof of tho sullercrs from Hoods was applied for tho advancement of tho causo of treo and shrub culturo tho nsccssltv for charitable contributions in this direction would bo largely reduced and If a yearly sum equal to tho amount of dam ago caused by floods could bo ho appllod tho rosultinirbeuuillwould bdtacalculablo This subject isnbt properly appreciated by our people ana1 legislators and I hope tho rrcss will coma forward and do its full duty in tlio

1848 at tho battlo of Novnrra tho Italian general La Morluo rcectvod orders from Gon Lu Marmora his superior officer to cross certain river with his brlgudo Gen La Morino fulled to obey such order thcruby enabling part of tho Austrian army under Marshal Baduzky to cross said rivor and outflauk tho Italiaus Tho Italian nrmy lost tho battle of Kovurrn Oeu La Morino was tried by court martial for disobedience of orders found guilty and shot In IBID nt tho battlo of Magenta tho lato French emperor Nupolcon HI was hardly pressed by tho Austriaus at tho bridgo of Magenta ana probably would havo been bauiy defeated had ho not received unexpected support MacMahon at that tlmo a general of limited military fame had received strict orders from Ktnporor Napoleon III to mnrch with his corps along tho foot of tho Alps duo east But hearing tho thunder of cannon and tho rago of tho battlo miles and miles south of him bo concluded to disobey tho orders received struck dua south with his corps durmlo and cut through tho right Hank of tho Austrian army thereby turning that duy of Magenta which began so disastrously for Napoleon HI into a brilliant victory lor tho French nrmy For this disobedience of orders Gen MacMahon was created duo of Maconta marshal of Frnneo nud wns subsequently elected president of tho French republic Tho writer thinks that if general or other officer receives peremptory orders from his superior officer to attack tho enemy ho is bound to attack Tho only excuse- for not attacking with his whole force would bo that after having inido a forced rocon nulssanco with such part of his command strong enough to compel tho enemy to dovelop and show his strength such rcconnalssnuco establishing that the numerical strength of the enemy and tho imprcgnnblo positions occupied by him aro such that an attack with tho whole force would mean utter destruction or nuulhilatlon of thu whole command Beports from spies or from small scouting parties lu cases Uko tho above should not bo relied upon and whether afterward found to have been cither correct or Incorrect should not bo accepted as oxcusos for inactivity in such cases of emergency It becomes certainly thu duty of such subordinate olticor to immediately roport to his eommaudlug officer that a forcud recognlzanco has Ostablishod tho nbovo mentioned facts aud to ask for further orders which his commanding officer will not fall promptly to issuo modifying them according to tho information aud reports received aud to tho circumstances occurred since An officer who has complied with theso
