Narvels Performed by Blind Man.

Thcge recently died at Burlington,
Conn, oGe James Goodsell, who
from his birth. during a life Of near
ly ninety years, has been totally
blind. In spite OF his misfortune,
he would swing an axe with dexter
ity, and felled trees F.; he was an ac-
complished grain thresher, and
would frequently go alone a dis
tance of two miles to thresh for the
farmers, climbing the mows to
throw down grain he could hoe
corn or garden stufis as we'll is any
body, having no trouble TO distin-
guish the weeds he would set
hundred bean poles with more ac-
curacy thon most people who can
see would load hay and was so
good a mechanic that he manufac-
tpred yokes and other articles with
success, He had an excellent mem
ory, and was an authority on facts
and dates. He could generally tell
the time of day or night within a
few minutes. One instance is given
when he slept over one day and
awoke at evening, thinking it was
morning. For once he ate supper
for breakfast, but when informed of
his mistake, slept another twelve
hours TO get straight again. He was
familiar with forest trees, and knew
Just where TO go for any timber de-
sired. He could direct men where
to find chestnut, a maple, or an
oak, and the children where to 90
for berries. He was 4 good mathe-
matician, and could compute accur-
ately aud rapidly. In olden days
he was quite unusually inclined, and
like most blind people, he had a
genius in that direction. He was
at one time leader of the Presbyteri.
an choir. To crown all, he possess
ed one of the happiest dispositions.
and was ever genial and cheerful.
70 this end his generally excellent
health largely contributed.

The Columbus (QJ State ,I0,1nai
wakes eloquent in the praise Of chest
nut trees, as 4 valuable one to culti-
vate both for its timber and It's fruit.
The latter, aS it points out, IS the
principle food lin the form Of chest
nut bread of more than a hundred
millions Of the healthiest and most
sinewv people in the world. IN
some localities in Italy and Spain,
in Eastern Europe and Western
Asia, the cropis equalin importance
to the wheat crop in Ohio. The
vocd Of the chestnut Is handsome
and easily worked, and may be
proftably employed in mqnutactur-
ing and for other purposes to amuch
larger extent than it is at pres
ent.
The great advantage possessed by
this tree over most Others IS that ii
viii thrive and grow to a great size
on very poor land. Its native home
is a barren soil. Chestnut trees one
hundred feet in height and from
three to seven feet in diameter can
yet be found, the Journal SAYS.
on the hiIl-tops Of Southern Ohio,
growing in soil which cannot be
made to produce five bushels Of corn
per acre, and where oak, hickory and
other trees are mere dwarfs.
The best way to secure a chestnu
plantation is to plant the nuts in
the place where 1t is desired the
trees shall grow. The chestnut does
not. bear transp4anting easily, and
many failures have followed the at
tempts Of western farmers to set out
forests Of transplanted trees. This
Is OF small consequence, however.
az under favorable circumstances
bearing trees twenty-five feet in
height can be obtained from the
seed in FIVE or six years. The nuts
should be planted as soon as posi-
bic after they are gathered. They
should be only half buried in the
ground, and then lightly covered
with leaves or litter-a score or more
being planted for every tree desired
to insure success. Ii would be an
excellent plan for farmers boys and
girls could be interested in the cul-
ture of these valuable trees. Put
the enterprise in their hands, and
promise them a share in the pro-
