After having, in spite OF sore bones, per-
formed jig, which he ,extemporized for
that occasion for the express edi6cation Of
the rebs, Joe decended from his perch and
deliberately shutting off steam, stopped.
We were still in sight of them, though at
a tolerabIe safe distance, and now saw
group of them standing near several men
who had been wounded, perhaps some kill-
cd by that ''irrepressible'' stick of wood.
Our damages were few bruises each, but
no serious hurts. Our engine suffered the
loss of the cowcatcher and headlight, the
front Of the smoke-box was stove in, beside
sundry dents and bruises on the brass castings
of the cylinders, but for running purposes
absolutely uninjured the rebels having
piled the logs squareiy across the top of the
track, the point OF the cowcstcher had gone
under them, and, though broken BY the
shock, had raised them sufficiently to keep
them from under the wheels. while the en-
CINE dashed them right and left into the
gorge.
The rebels seeing US stop, started inspur-
suit but as we found nothing serious TO i'm
pede our further progress, and, as in their
case, distance lent enchantment TO the
view" we were off. again in high spirits,
and without further adventure worth re-
counting, arrived safely at our destination.
Poor Joe, after having been shot at 50
often as to have acquired a sovereign con-
tempt for rebel bullets, was shot and killed
in 1865, while running a Govern nent engine
near Chattanooga.

How TO MAKE FARMING PROFIT
ABLE.-The most vital question affect
ing the farmer Is how 10 make farm
ing profitable Especially is this felt
in the depressed condition Of Our mar
kets at The present time, when produce
Of all kinds does not pay the cost OF
production. Below we give O c0nden-
sed summary Of the more prominent
causes affecting the condition Of the
agricultural class. We do not pro
pose to present to the readers OF the
Prairie Farmer all the causes effect
ing the successful outcome Of the farm
but rather to point ouS the more in
portant AMI prominent ones. We call
particular attention to the following:
l. The enormous loss which many
farmers sustain from the neglected
condition Of the manure piles.
2 From the exposure Of farm ma
chinery to the inclemencles OF the
weather
8. From the loss which is sustained
in keeping more animals than the Owl
. er can properly provide food and slel-
ter for
T. From raising scrubUy and indii,,
feTent animals, when good ones could
be raised st the same cost and twice
the profit
3. Tilling moe land than can be
properly cultivated, thereby raising
on two acres that which might be
more proftablv raised on one.
Making specialties Of certain
crops, to the ultimate exhaustion o.
the soil.
:. From disposing of the crops IL
tue condition in which they are lalsea
instead Of converting them into bee''
pork and mutton.
&. In neglecting to properly attend
to the little details OF the farm.
Q. In not keeping a strict accountoI
the transactions Of the farm.
10. In not using proper judgment
in disposing Of the produce OF tDs
farm and the purchasing Of machIneT!
and other necessaries.
Il. Purchasing provisions when
should be raised at home.
I2 In not having machinery enough
to properly harvest and save crops.
We believe that failure to MAKE
farming profitable may be ;trRceaole
to one or several of the above causes
which a little study and forcthoasL.
will successfully obyiate. 1t VIII -
apparent to every one who gives ID.
above causes due consideration tha'
the remedy for improbable farming
lies with the farmer.-I0icG IN Fra1''

THE MAHUA TREE.
FOUNTAIN or FooD, VINE AND OIL.

Mr.. Z. Lockwood, who was for sev.
eral years a magistrate in Moughyr.
India, has described in the Journal Of
the Linnean Society the economic
uses Of the mahwa tree, which he
speaks Of "as a fountain yielding food
wine and oil" to the inhabit7nss Of the
country where it grows. This tree
Cthe Bossia laiifolia Of botanists}
grows in the plains and forests Of
Bengal. and attains a height Of forty
to fifty feet, with numerous spreading
branches, forming n close, shady.
rounded crown. Standing oa the
Kharakpoor hills, 25O miles north
west Of Calcutta, a hundred thousand
of the trees are visible in the plains be
low. They might be mistaken for
the mango, but while the mango is
uncertain in its yield, the crop Of the
mahwa never fails. The part eaten
arc the flowers, which are sweet tast-
ing and succulent and fall in great
profusion during March and April
The natives collect these, dry them,
and store them rs STAPLE articles Of
food. Each tree yields two or three
hundred weight Of the corolIas; so
that the total yield in the Moughyr
district alone, it is estimated, cannot
fall short OF 100 600 tons. The nour-
ishmcnt is good, for the Santhals, who
use it largely, are plump and happy.
The mahwa had its share in alleyiat.
inc the Indian famine, and during the
scarcity which prevailed 81 Behar Us
T3-4) the crop, which was unusually
abundant, kept thousands Of poor
people from starvation The flowers
are still more useful for feeding cattle;
and again the same recommendation
may be advanced, that while the pota-
to-, maize and barley are uncertain IL
their crop, there has never been a sea
son when these corollas have been
known to fail. Their keeping powers
are excellent a ton, dried and put in.

after two years. time, was found to be
unchanged. The tree furnishes q
hard and strong timber used for car
riage wheels, etc. The seeds yield O
grecnish-yellow oil, used for burning
in lamps, making soap and for culin
arv purposes. The flowers, in addlt
ion TO their use as food, are now large
" employed in the dlstilloti0n Of 6
strong smelling spirit resembling whis
KEY. and which is consumed In gTca
quantities by the natives. This liquor
, when fresh, proves very dclcterious e
Europeans. The mahwa Is considere
BY the Bheels n essential to thciryer
% existence, and this fact is taken alvau
/, tagc Of by the Government In doalin,
with refractory tribes; it Is only n,
: cessary to threaten the destruction o
Q their mahwn trees TO bring them t
submission. Some Of the Englisl

e. commercial future for the ec0uomi
products of this tree, especially for If
