LOST ms NERVE.
The Thrilling Experience of Loco
motive Engineer.


81 left my engine on a great rail-
road" said an elevated engineer,
because / lost my nerve. | ran for
years one of the fastest trains on the
road. From the time we RULED out
from Jersey City until my run was
ended we went like streak of flame
did not mind it at first, but one
night when we Were out-racing the
wind to make up time, L had just
timeto see the binding flash of a
headlight before / was smashed
through my cab. That was one of
the worst wrecks that ever occurred
on the road. Both the engineer and
brakeman of the other engine were
killed instantly and my own fireman
was SO badly cut to pieces that he did
not live to reach the hospital. L was
little more than alive myself, but /
pulled around after awhile and went
back to throttle. l was shaky for
some weeks, but gradually got back
my nerve so that | could drive a fast
express without trembling. Well, [
got into another wreck in the course
of time. That shook my nerve again.
Once L was arrested charged with
causing the death of lot of PEG pie.
GID knows / had no more 10 do with
it than you. | was running n wreck
ing train at lightning speed. The
Division Superintendent stood close
at my side and kept encouraging me
to let her out. We dashed around a
curve clear through freight train.
The Superintendent himself had
cleared the track, but forgotten this
train. He was killed and my fireman
was cut in two. When I got out of
the hospital / was put on trial. Oh
course | was acquitted. / was simply
running on orders. But L lett the
road after that. 1 tried another one,
but could not trust orders, signals
or switches. I was always uneasy.
1t takes a good deal of nerve to go
jumping past u switch in the dead of
night when you know that If some
one has made mistake you are sure
to be in terrible wreck. You have
got to have absolute confidence in all
the machinery of the road or you
can't do 1t and keep sane. It's no
trick at all running one of these dunn
mics, just child's play, but it's safe as

The possibility of the range of
products which may be produced up
On the soil of the United States is
only beginning to be understood. For
instance, the writer has recently seen,
in the experimental garden of the
sanford orange grove, at Sanford,
Florida, both camphor tree and a
cinnamon tree. Their hardy aud lux
uriant growth, their evident content
and satisfaction with both soil and
climate, made us wonder how much
longer we shall look abroad for such
producte, instead of supplying our
selves.

Every thing that grows taxes with
its growth some valuable fertilizing
element from the soil. Not only do
the various farm crops do this, but
weeds as we'll With these last a
special loss is incurred if they are al

growth of the seed that takes the

Regarding the use of arsenites for
spraying trees, the Iowa Experiment
Bulletin No. 10 says: The Older
leaves are more susceptible to INJURY
from the arsenites than the younger
ones. The injury is increased if
spraying is done while the leaves are
wet with dew. Perfectly dry leaves
are not effected even by very strong
applications. London purple is more
injurious to foliage than Paris green.

The culture of timber is one of the
lines in which we should have early,
exact and comprehensive expert
mentation. We have often advised
farmers, in these columns, to take
this work up on their own account,
devOting to 1t especially such land as
can not well be used for cultivated
crops, One of the most valuable of
our native trees is the white ash, and
it is adapted to a very vide range of
territory. The wood is in demand for
great variety of commercial uses,
commanding always a good price.
1t Is rapid grower, and the Amefi-
can AgricuJtItrtst Is our authority for
saying that trees only II years old
have been known to pay the planter a
clear profit of from 5000 to 500 per
acre. Good land is, of course, best
adapted for timber growing, but on
poor, rocky, hilly or otherwise I'M
profitable land trees could always be
planted to good advantage, the only
difference being that one would have
to wait longer for returns; but there
would be the consolation of know
ing that the land would ultimately
be a-souIoe of profit, instead of con-
slant burden of expense, il left idle.
Other trees beside the ash will COM
mend themselves to various readers,
such as are indigenous to a given
region being, of course, to be pre-
ferred for that locality. We shall
only make the further suggestion
here that the willow may be profit
ably planted in situations too wet for
other timber, and that the wood can
be used for ox-bOws, handles, basket
making and other purposes where a
of strength, lightness and
toughness is desired. j. X. r.

Where ones surroundings are at
all adapted for such work, it will pay
TO grow young pullets for market.
There is hardly point-East, West,
North or South-where early pullets
are not in demand at good prices, and
a considerable addition may be made
to the income of the farm by catering
to this demand. After providing
good quarters, the main thing Is to
feed properly for quick growth and
full development. For this purpose
the principal articles of food should
be milk, oat meal, chopped clover
and bran. Every element required is
contained in these, ana in such we'll
balanced proportions that the diges-
tive organs will not be Overtaxed in
any way. 1t is best to feed the milk
in sour curd, taking care not to keep
it too long after becoming sour. The
oats should be ground, as they are
then most easily digested. The clo-
yer should be chopped, mixed with
an equal amount of Oat meal and bran,
moistened with hot water, and al
lowed to stand long enough to become
we'll softened before feeding. Give
right along as much Of Ruch food as
they will eat up clean, and their rapid
and healthful growth will ensure a
speedy profit.
