FOREST HILL FARM NOTES.
Home Made Fertilizers.

believe in making my own fertiIi-
GERS on the farm us far as possibly
can. There is SO much wasted That
ought to be saved on 50 many farms
that feel that a word of caution ON
the subject of saving all the fertility
might be timely and profitable. | do
not mean to discourage the proper use
of commercial fertilizers. They have
done and are doing Il valuable service
for the farmer and in many cases are
almost Indispensable. After reading
articles ON commercial fertilizers and
what they would accomplish, ! have
sometimes been almost led to believe
that a farmer could not afford to use
barnyard manure even if it was hauled
out and scattered on his land free OF
expense.
These learned writer's have a way Of
telling us farmers about the chemical
properties in their favorltc brands
of fertilizers, and just what they will
accomplish to balance up the clements
of the soil. Theoretically this is we'll
enough and practically there is some
real value in all this analySiS, but !
have noticed that the farmer that
gives his land Il liberal coat of barn
ward manure year after year always
raised abundant crops without regard
to what was said in favor Of CONNER
cial articles. If farmers worked az
hard in saving the manurial elements
on the farm as he did to pay for th'
fertilizer that he bought Of the deale
, he would be much bet ter off at the enc
of the year.
one great source of waste is b,

A THRILLING TALE.
The Capture of a Confederate Prize
Crew by Yankee
Negro Cook.

Some OF the naval veterans were talk
ing of their experiences when this tale
was told:
The schooner S. ]. Waring was one
of those ships which tried to do little
trading in spite of the nests of con-
federate privateers that lined the
shores.
But she was brought up short one
day, her crew taken prisoners, prize
crew put aboard of her and her nose
turned for Charleston.
The prize crew consisted of some six
or seven men, and the Yankee cook was
left on board to fix the meals for the
captors.
He was a big strapping darkey,
named Tillman, and as the two vessels
drew further apart and he saw that
neither one was headed for New York
he began to have grave fears that his
future was not so glowing as it might
be.
He asked several of the crew where
they were bound for, and what they in
tended to do with him after they got
there.
They saw, of course, that the darby
was frightened, and so, to scare him
more, they told him that they were
bound for Charleston, and that he would
either be killed or sold again as slave
to the highest bidder.
That didn't suit Tillman a bit. lie
had been free in the north too long to
relish the idea of returning to slavery,
and he made up his mind that. if he
could prevent it, the good ship 5. j.
Waring would never reach Charleston.
1t took him some time to decide on his
course of action. To poison the
whole crew was impossible for lack of
poison, and he just about made up his
mind to do nothing when one night he
got to thinking things over, and be-
came almost crazed at the prospect be-
| fore him.
He seized Ratchet and crept up or
deck. Things were very quiet there.
The second mate was almost asleep at
the wheel, and the chief mate was lying
in a drunken stupor. Most of the crew
in fact, were drunk.

and with one blow crushed in the man {
skull. Then he went back on deck ani
served the first mate in the same way.
The second mate, however, saw hin
coming, ard yelled Tillman went fo
him and, after wounding him, threw
him shrieking into the sea.
The commotion by this time brough
the crew on deck, and when they foun'
the crazed Tillman with his blood'
hatchet, they took to the rigging TO
safety.
One man only remained below at Till
mans mercy. The cook held parle
with him in this way:
Say, you all own that Use cap'n
this hyar ship now, an eff you III com
up hyar an behave decent, you all III
come up
The man looked sheepsh, but h
obeved. Then Tillman and he turne
their attention to the men in the rig
