at their worst, he rode up to the fort IN
company with his sixty dogs
Isaac Haden had a cool head and a
yery daring spirit. He was in the habit
/ OF taking in situations ut a glance, de-
Gliding quickly what was to be done,
and then doing it at any risk that might
be necessary. As soon as he saw how
the men and women were placed he
| cried out to his dogs, and at the head OF
his believing pack, charged upon the
flank of the Indians. The dogs did the
work with a spirit equal to the masters.
For each to seize a red warrior and
drag him to earth was the work of a
moment, and the whole body was soon
| in confusion. For a moment they had
all they could do to defend themselves
against the unlocked assault of the
fierce animals, and before they could
beat off the dogs the men OF the fort
came out and joined in the attack, so
that the women and children had time
to make their way inside the gates, only
one of them a Mrs. Phillips. having
been killed.
The men, of course, had to follow the
women closely, as they were too weak
in numbers to risk a battle outside. If
they had done so, the Indians would
have overcome them quickly, and then
the fort and everybody in it would have
been at their mercy, so they hurried in
to the fort as soon as the women were
safe.
But the hero who had saved the peo-
pie by his quickness and courage was
left outside, and not only so, but the
savages were between him and the fort.
He had charged entirely through the
war party, and was 10Y beyond their
line, alone, aud with no chance of help
from any quarter.
His hope Of saving himself was very
small, indeed; but he had saved all
those helpless women and children, and
he was brave enough fellow to die will
ingly, for such a purpose as that, if he
must. But brave men do not give up
easily, and young Haden did not mean
to die without a last effort to save him.
self. Blowing a loud blast upon his
hunting horn to call his remaining dogs
around him, he drew his pocket pistols
One in each hand-and plunged spurs
into his horses tanks. In spite of the
numbers against him, he broke through
the mass of savages, but the gallant
horse that bore him fell dead as he
cleared the Indian ranks. Haden had
fired both his pistols, and had no time
to load them again. He was practically
unarmed now and the distance he had
to go before reaching the gates was con-
siderable. His chance of escape was
smaller than ever, but he quickly sprang
from the saddle, and ran with all his
might, holly pursued, and under a ter
rife fire from the rifles of the savages.
The gate was held a little way open
for him to pass, and when he en-
teredt the fort his nearest pursuers were
so close that there was barely time for
the men to shut the gate in their faces.
Strangely enough the brave young
fellow was not hurt IL any way. Five bull
lets passed through his clothes, but his
skin was not broken.

Flat Lands for Orchards.

Some discussion has recently taken place
among fruit-grOwers and writers at the
West on the question whether high or low
land is best for orchards. The experience
OF late years has shown that apple trees
in many instances have succeeded best.
lived longer and borne better crops, when
planted on low, fiat and moist land. From
these facts the inference has been drawn
by some persons that apple trees need a
large supply of moisture, and even that
drainage is detrimental-and writers who
have recommended upland are charged
with giving bad advice. The cast-iron
rule has therefore been laid down: CAL
ways plant apple trees on low and moist
land"
Some Western Orchardists have eX-
pressed the opinion that the reason low
lands have given the best results is that
the soil is deeper, mellower and more
nearly resembling the MANFRED and cul-
tlYated ground of the best managed or
chards, and that if manure and cultiva-
ton We're applied to the orchards on upland
they would give different and more IA
yorable report. Whatever the result might
be, it is certain that in many places high
ground gives as good, and often better,
crops than depressiOnS, and the above
mentioned rule should therefore be mOdi-
fled or changed to "always plant on such
land as experiment shows to be best,
whether it be high or low land.'' Success
depends on the character of the soil and
on the treatment it receives, and not on
its depression or elevation. Sterile ridges,
where they exist, must either be avoided
or else brought into a good condition by
manure and cultivation.
Mistaken notions are sometimes adopt
ed on the effect of draining. Instead of
making the land dryer, it tends to give
more uniform and continuous supply of
moisture to growing plants, by changing
a hard crust into mellow or porous bed
of earth, which will receive and hold sur
plus water, and give it off as wanted. The
Instances where orchards have been great
ly improved by placing tile-drains be-
tween the rows OF trees have fully proved
the benefit of drainage.
The preceding remarks apply wholly to
apple orchards. Peach trees, on account
of the partly tender character Of the fruit
buds, usually bear best on elevations, IN
all localities where the crop is liable to
destruction in winter. The cold air set
ties IN valleys and often proves fatal to
the buds, while they escape and give good
crops on ridges Country Gentleman.

The Potato.

GUYTON, GA, Friday, May 23.-The
Farmers Association of Effingham county,
composed of many of the best citizens of
this community, met at this place to-day.
To Col. Morgan Rawls was assigned the
duty of delivering an address to the So
ciety, which the Colonel did in a we'll
studied and edifying speech, and which
was well received by the society. He
took for his principal crop topic the his
tory and cultivation of the potato. He
clearly demonstrated that a larger guam
tity of good, wholesome food could be
produced to the acre in the two crops.
Irish and sweet potatoes, than in any
other crop.
He said that every farmer in this Sec
ton of the State knew by experience that
an acre of Well-fertilized land would pro-
duce so to 100 bushels in Irish pOtatbes: :
that these potatoes dug by the LIST OF June
and the same ground then planted with
sweet potato vines or draws would pro-
duce an equal quantity of fine sweet po-
tatOes; thus getting two good crops from
the same ground in one year. The two
crops would never be worth less than 500
per acre and frequently double that
amount.
The Colonel exhibited some very fair
specimens of new varieties of Irish pOta-
toes grown by him this season. Such eff
forts by intelligent and energetic men
must result in good to our people and
bring our section of the country to the
front. CENTRAL

cheapest fertilizing agents you can en-
ploy, particularly on fields most remote
from your barns.-CultiUGtOr
A plant is a living organism, governed
by as immutable laws as we are ourselves.
The roots of a tree extend about as far
from the stem as the tree is high; that is,
the roots of tree ten feet in height would
penetrate circle of twenty feet in DIAM
eter. In taking up such tree the greater
part of its rOots-especially the fine tibrous
feeding roots-have to be cut OFF, and the
top of the tree in proportion, if we would
have the slightest chance to make it live
at all. 1t will be readily seen, therefore,
that it requires some time before the tree
can regain its former size in roots and
branches, and that all its vitality will
have to be spent for this purpose; and If a
few abortive fruits should form, these will
only be an additional tax, tapping the life
blood of the tree, to more speedily effect
its ruin.-GdFden.

Lima Beans.

Farmers do not raise enough Lima beans.
They are luxuriant growers. The dried
beans bring good prices. In Southern
California they are raised by the hundreds
OF acres. For baking purposes they are
superior to the navy bean. The most
marketable is the large Lima. The best
favored is Dreer's improved. 1t is not so
large, but it is more prolific grower than
the large Lima. They need good soil.
They are worth in market three times as
much as the small field bean. The soil
may be somewhat sandy, but should be
enriched, and the situation must be a
warm one. We plant four feet apart,
four beans to the hill, the eye downward.
Afterward thin to three. Hoe carefully.
In the vicinity of New York plant from

The Bulletin of the Department advises
persons desiring the best results in hatch
ing the fry to place around the edges OF
their ponds, IN eighteen inches or two feet
of water, boughs of green pine, willow
or other suitable branches for the fish to
attach their spawn to. AS soon as dis
covered the eggs should be transplanted
to the clearpure water of Matching pond.
This will secure protection from the par
ent fish, which destroy both spawn and
fry. When reaching the size of a steel
pen remove the fry to a larger pond and

you have not this daily practice, that
