ho hnd tho gcntlo heart of a chivalrous
soldier, ns Is Rhownby tin unccdoto told
to tho writer by Maj. I. V. Itatchford,
a distinguished ofllecr who wns Gen.
Hill's adjutant frcnoral.
Just after tho bnttlo of Cold Harbor,
Gen. Hill's brigade coramnnders, Gens.
Rhodes, Gnrlnntl, O. 11. Anderson, and
Colquitt, canio to headquarters to re
port and got instructions. They met
Gen. Hill about two o'clock in tho
murning, entered a vacant house, and
woro soon busy with plans for tho next
day.
While they were talking, a wounded
fcdernl ofllecr wns brought In who hnd
been shot In tho knee nnd captured.
Hd limped up supported on one sido by
a federal prisoner and on tho other by
ono of his confederate captors. Gen.
Hill aroso and turned around to sp.cak
to him. As tho goncrul turned, the cap
tured officer let go his supports and ex
claimed: "11111, -old fellow, how aro
you?"
"Why, 'II. R., is this you?" asked
Gsn. Hill, and tho two, whoso troops
had been "blazing away" atono another
nil the day before, actually embrnced
each other. Mnj. Ratchford says: "My
surprise nt seeing these two foes re
joicing over eut.li other had not passed

away when Gen. Anderson caino for
vyard and wns as demonstrative over
the federal olllccr ns though that otll
ccr hnd been his fnther. Gun. Garland,
too, on being introduced, was evident
ly affected and hhook hands with a
heartiness that showed some tie be
tween them, personal strangers though
they were.
"The federal ofllecr of Col., after
wards Gen.. II. R. Clitz, of the Twelfth
United States regulars. Gen. Hill
nnd Col. UliU had been cadets at
West I'oint at tlio same time, had
served together in tho Mexican war,
and were warm personal friends. Col.
Clitz had been an instructor at West
Point when Anderson was a cadet
there, and Anderson had been one of
his favorite pupils. Clitz had nlso been
guardian for Garland's wife, nnd as
Mrs. Garland had died only a bhort
time before this Gen. Garland was nat
urally touched by suddenly meeting,
for the first time, his dead wife's
friend."
After n few minutes spent in pleasant
social inquiries, Gen. Hill asked Col.
Clitz about his wound nnd proposed to
scud him to the field hospital to have
his wound dressed.
"Ko," generously answered Col. Clitz,
"let others who need it worse have at
tention first,"
So he stayed with Gen. Hill that
night, tho two sleeping on the same
overcoat tho best bed obtainable.
Next morning Gen. Hill gave his friend
an umbulnnca and said:
"Clitz, I must scud you to Richmond
about fifteen miles away but I will
not send you under guard. You just
give mo your promise to go thero and
report to Gen. Winder. And say, Clitz,
hero is my wife's address. She is my
banker now;. If you need any money
while a prisoner draw on her for iu"
Just as the nmbulaneo was about to
start, some of Gen. Hill's soldiers
brought in Gen. John V. Reynolds, a
federal division commander.
Gen. Hill and Gen. Reynolds had
been together at West Point for three
years, they had been associated as
young officers at Fort Moultrie, they
had gono out to tho, Mexican war in
the same company a company that
hud Rraxton llragg for captnin and
George II. Thomas, John P. Reynolds
nnd D. II. Hill for lieutenants. Rut
now when Gen. Hill advanced to shake
hands Gen. Reynolds would not recog
nize him nor speak at all..
Gen. Hill's military instincts led him
to divine tho causo of his old comrado'a
, depression and enabled him to sympa
thize with a bravo soldier's chagrin at
''being surprised and captured.
So, going up to Gen. Reynolds with
' extonded'hand, ho said:
"Reynolds, do not feel so badly about
your capture; it is tho fate of wur."
"It is not being captured," was tho
general's answer, "that hurts so, but it
is being captured asleep."
"Cheer up, old fellow," responded
Gon. Hill, "everybody knows that you
aro a bravo and a good soldier, anil
everybody knows that you would do
all that human nuturo can do."
Gen. Reynolds brightened up and
said: "Well, Hill, if you hay that, I
shall feol better about tho mattor, for
I lenow you would not mislead me. No
raim'a good opinion is more appreciated
by mo than yours, unci if you do not
condemn mo, perhaps others will not."
Then telling him tho sumo thing
about a guard and about money mat
ters that ho had told Col. Clitz, Gen.
Hill put him in tho sumo ambulance,
and, after a cordial handshake, tho
yvo friend-foos parted never to meet
again.
Gen. Roynolds, after filling full tho
measure of an intrepid and successful
olflcer, was killed at Gettysburg. Few,
even, on his own sido, Qjrmembercd him
vve ith.tnoro affection than Gen. Hill did.

GEN. LEE IN 1801.
A Confedcrato Soldier's Rcmlnlsconco of
tho Southern Chief.
I met Gen. Leo first nt his resideneo
in Franklin street, Richmond, in 1801.
His faco was cleanly Bhaven except a
very full black mustache. Ho was tnll
and slender and erect, ami reminded mo
of a (French officer of tho highest type.
I was on tho college campus at Hump
don Sidnoy, Vn., In May, 18(51, with a
number of students at piny, when Pres
ident Atkinson, who had just returned
from Fnrmville, rode up and said:
"Young gentlomcn, northern troops
havo crossed tho Potomac into Virginia
at Alexandria, Ellsworth's zouaves
toro down tho Virginia flag on Jack
son's hotol. Jackson shot Ellsworth and
tho zouaves have killed Jackson tho
war has begun." Tho boys raised and
I heard for tho first time tho "rebel
yell." It was arranged that afternoon
that tho students of tho college and
theological seminary should form a
company with Dr. Atkinson as captain.
This company was ordered first to
Richmond, and soort after, with Col.
John Pegram, to Rich Mountain in tho
wilds of West Virginia. At Rich Moun
tain wo wero nttacked by Gen. MeClel
lan in front and by Gon. Roseerans in
tho rear, and after a severe engagement
the Hampden Sidney boys were surren
dered by Col. Pegram to Gon. McClel
lan, who treated them very kindly,
paroled them nnd told them to go back
to collego nnd finish their studies.
I, however, mado my cscapo without
boing paroled. I was sick whon tho
surrender took place. Tho next day
typhoid fever sot in and I was sent to a
privato house. Hero I met a federal
sergeant who engaged for fifty dollars
in gold, in advance, to take me out of
tho lines. Reforo day tho next morn
ing lie was at the house, and, talcing
mo in his arms, laid md in tho" bottom
of his wagon and covered mo with hay.
Ho then drove me to the outer picket
post, whero there was great excitement
and anger, owing to the fact that two
of their men had just been shot by
"bushwhackers." As we drove up they
wore breathing out threatcnings and
slaughter against confederates. Ono
of them jumped up on tho front seat
and asked the sergeant where ho was
going. Ho said: "Foraging." What
had lie in his wagon? Ho said: "Noth
ing." After a few pleasant words tho
sergeant said he must go on. Ho then
drove over into the woods, and, talcing
mo in his arms, laid mo down, express
ing the greatest n grct at leaving mo
thero in tho woods "to die." Cutting
off ono of my buttons as a memento,
and kissing me on tho cheek, he drove
away. The thought of cscapo and free
dom was far superior to disease 1 sat
up stood walked leaped for joy
came up with a confederate wugon,
toolc the cars at Staunton and reached
Manassas in time to witness tho close
of the first battle of Hull Run.
After I had served for somo time in
Mosby's independent command, known
to the federals as "guerrillas," I was
offered the adjutancy of a regularly
organized regiment. Tho question
then arose whether, as my company
was paroled, I had a right to go into
service before it was exchanged. The
question wns referred to Gen. R. E.
Lee, whom I sought in Richmond. It
was on Sunday morning. Gen. Lee
was in his parlor. When I was stating
my case he interrupted mo by saying
that this seemed to be a matter of
business. "It's my rule never to tran
sact matters of business on tho Lord's
day, except in enses of necessity or
mercy." I told him that I had to lcavo
the city next morning at six o'clock,
and lie then allowed mo to proceed.
Though I had been received in a kindly
and courteous manner, yet I felt all the
time that Gen. Leo was preoccupied.
Now and then he seemed engaged iD

deep thought. When I had stated my
ijaso ho directed mo to repeat it, saying
that he had not been listening to me.
This I refused to do, expressing regret
that I had Intruded upon him in a
matter that was largely personal, and
rose to leave.
As I reached tho door Gen. Leo asked
mo my name, saying ha had not heard
it when I was introduced. I told him,
and ho baul he know my family very
well. Ho then insisted that I should
dino with him, saying that ho would
like very much to havo me. I was
nothing but a boy, and declined; but I
was very much ashamed of myself aft
erward for being annoyed at his inatf
tcntlou, when ho told mo that ho had
just received tho intclligonco that tho
enemy had landed in force under Gon.
McClcllan on tho peninsula.
Ho then said thut I could not bo held
technically that tho enemy did not
have my name as a prisoner of war on
parole of honor; "but they woro kind
to you In scndiQg you to n privato
houso on account of your sickness, and
if I wero in y6ur placo I should con
sider myself in honor bound to observo
tho pnrolo until tho company la ex
changed." Tho last two years of tho war I spent
at Gon. Leo's headquarters as captain
of a company of scouts, guides and
couriers in his body guard, and In all
that 1 had tho privilege of seeing of
him during those years tho two things
that impressed mo most in this first in
terview his high senso of honor and
his deep though intelligent Christian
sentiment shono conspicuous. W. W.

FARM AND GARDEN.
THE MAKING OF ROADS.
Importance of T.nny Grades Is Not Undor
tooil Generally.
Mr. P. A. Dunham, who was tho en
gineer in chargo of road improvements
in Union county, N. J., and other popu
lar suburbs of New York, tho results of
which have been in n high degree sat
isfactory, in a communication to Good
Roads gives his general plan of opera
tions: All tho roads were carefully located
and mapped, and accurate levels wero
taken and profiles mado for establish
ing tho grades, particular care being
taken with tills part of tho work, as It
was considered of tho greatest Im
portance. On tho earlier roads somo
qulto heavy earthwork wns done both
in excavntion nnd embankment in order
to reduco steep grades as much as pos
sible. On later work, however, it was
considered advisable to reduce tho cost
of tho earthwork, and in order to do
this grades wore established which
necessarily followed more nearly tho
general surface of the old roads. Suffi
cient grading was always done, how
ever, to securo adequate inclination for
drainage.
The benefits to bo secured by cxpend
Inp oven a moderate amount of money
in improving the grade of roads about
to be paved aro not appreciated as they
should be. Hills and hollows which
might havo been improved at a very
Blight expense aro often left in tho road
to be a continual detriment to its use
fulness. It should bo remembered that
It is not expected nor desired to make a
level road, but that often only a small
amount of earth need bo taken from
the top of a hill nnd added to the hol
low at its foot to convert a bad, hilly
road into a good ono with easy grades.
We should also bear in mind that this
expense of grading, onee incurred, is
forever done with, while if the need of
grading should bo realized after tho
completion of the pavement all the
work done upon tho latter would havo
to be sacrificed.
Sometimes tho road is too level, al
lowing tho water to settle at slight de
pressions and saturate the subgradc.
TELFOnn I1CF0KE WEDGING.
It is then imperative to cut or fill, or
both, as may be found most expedient,
in order to give a suilicient fall in tho
gutters to carry the water to tho near
est stream. Uuderdraius aro also re
quired in such places to relieve tho
subsoil of water. This matter of scour
ing a dry foundation for the pave
ment is really tho most important
end to be gained by grading, as the
pavement may be constructed and
permanently maintained on grades of
very inconvenient steepness, bnt if the
drainage is neglected tho existence of
the pavement itself is imperiled.
The total depth of pavement was
generally twelve inches. On some of
tho roads tho telford foundu ion was
not laid under the entire width of the
pavement, but a strip two feet wide on
each sido consisted of macadam stone
only. Underdrains were laid wherever
required to relievo tho subgrade of
water and to fit it for rolling and con
solidation. "'
Tho telford foundation consisted of
trap rock on most of tjie roads, a hard,
granulito or similar stone being used
on the others. The stones were of tho
general wedge shape shown in the il
lustration, set on their bases and
placed side by sido with their longest
dimensions transverse to the line of the
road.
Tho stones were at least eight inches
deop, the base being from eight to
twelve inches in length and not less
than four inches in width. After a
sufficient length of this foundation had
been laid all projecting points of stone
wero broken off with hammers, and
smaller stones, spalls and chips were
wedged and hammered into every open
ing until tho wholo was mado a rigid
mass of stone. This process of knap
ping was continued until all points
above grade were broken off, the low
places filled with stonp, nnd the telford
presented a sufficiently even burface at
tho proper grade.
The foundation was then rolled thor
oughly, the roller used weighing at
least five Ions. In the construction of
tho latter roads a thin layer of clay
wns spread over the telford previous to
the rolling to prevent tho screenings
(which wero to bo npplied Inter) from
sifting through tho foundation, and
also to form a cushion for the macadam
stone."
ORCHARD AND GARDEN.
Let no dead flowers remain on the
flowering plant.
Cheeky delights in liquid manure. It
needs plenty of moisture.
Removk tho suckers from the apple
trees. Thoy ruin tho trees.
Spinach and kale should bo covered
with a light mulch when the ground
freezes in our northern climate.
It is said that pulverized potash
placed in tho runs will kill moles.
Open tho, runs, put In tho potash and
cover with a stone.
Pick grapes three or four days before
packing, and see to it Mint nothing but
perfect fruit is packed. No matter how
lurgo tho crop is, talce this precaution.

CHESTNUT TREES.
Purine Who 1'lnnt Them Will Not ne
Bret Their Ihitorjirlso.
Growing chestnuts Is claiming it good
deal of attention from enterprising
cultivators throughout a wide area of
our country, and experiments have
proved that It can bo mndo profitable.
There are somo difficulties attending
the establishment of a chestnut grovo
or orchard, and lileo ail other now lines
nf work somo things havo yet to bo
learned by further experience.
In tho first place, chestnut trees aro
difficult to transplant, nnd many of
them dlo tho first scabon from tho ef
fects of careless handling in trans
punting. Their roots will not enduro
any exposure or drying; therefore they
should if possible, bo dug on damp or
rainy days nnd be well protected nil thn
tlmo they are out of tho ground, nnd
replanted with as llttlo delay as possi
ble. In tho next place chestnut trees
aro difficult to graft successfully, and
In order to securo profitable trees it is
just as necessary to havo grafted chest
nuts as It is to havo grafted trees of ap
ples, pears, or any other kind of fruit.
Our best results in grafting them havo
been secured by cutting tho grafts
early In the spring boforo tho sap starts,
and keeping them dormant in an ieo
houso until tho buds on the stocks aro
well swollen, usually from the 15th to
20th of April In tills latitude, then
graft tho same as other fruit trees by
any of the usual methods of insertion.
In tills way wo can usually get about
25 per cent, to 75 per cent of the grafts
to grow; the proportion of success de
pending a good deal upon the season
and condition of the weather.
As most of the bearing chestnut trees
in this country aro natural seedlings
there arc of course innumerable van
ties differing much in tho essential
qualities which make any fruit treo
valuable, viz., hardiness and produc
tiveness of the tree, and size, appear
ance and quality of tho fruit. A few
of the best varieties nave been selected
by nurserymen. Gardening.
GOOD ROAD SCRAPER.
Ono Tlmt Ih Hard to Mutch for Cheap
ncH untl KircctlwncKS.
A homemade road scraper that will
be hard to match for cheapness and
effectiveness is made of heavy boards
elcated together 2i feet by 5 feet long,
and edged with an old crosscut saw.
Strong handles arc bolted to it and
crooked irons, as shown in tho cut.
Draw it by reaching from a clamp and
two heavy staples on tho back just bo-
low its middle nnd near the handles.
The doubletree and draft-chains fasten
to these irons. When not in use tho
handles aro allowed to fall over toward
the team, and it is drawn backward.
This scraper does moro rapid work
than the old-time narrow road shove,!,
and is not so heavy for the men. L J.
Simpson, in N. E. Homestead.
Tho Coloring ot Hotter.
There are people who think that col
oring butter is a fraud. We never
looked at it in that way. The con
sumer wants yellow butter and as a
matter of fact he or slip does not earo
how it is made yellow. This was illus
trated some days since by a lady friend
of ours in the city who told her milk
man that ho need not leave her any
more milk or cream. Upon being asked
for tho reason sho told him t.at his
milk was good for nothing and that his
cream was not better than good milk
would be. He replied that he did not
put burnt sugar into his cream, where
upon the lady said: "Well, if nil cream
is naturally like yours I propose to tako
cream from some milkman who uses
burnt sugar or something else;" and
sho meant it, too. She wanted mdro
color to tho cream in bomeway. Farm

Froprr Cure of Mill;.
The first essential after starting a
creamery is to teach patrons to tnko
care of the mill:. All vessels should bo
of tin. Tho mill; bhould bo cooled and
aerated after milking, to prevent sour
ing, as souring prevents tho fut globules
from raising in gravity creaming, and
prevents tho separator from doing its
work. It should be set in cold water
in summer and kept from freezing in
winter. Tho milk cans should bo
washed, scalded und set in tho open nir.
Defective milk should be returned to
the patron. Milk should bo separated
at seventy degrees Fahrenheit; the less
milk taken wiUi the fat tho less loss
of tho butter in the buttermilk.
Skimmed milk and buttermilk should
be tested every day to sec if tho sep
arators aro doing their work, and to
scq if tho buttermaker is attending to
tho ripening of his cream. Tho cream
bhould be cooled at once after beparat-
big.
Don't I'orjrot tho Drainage.
It is essential that the roadway
should be properly constructed with
roferenco to grading and ditching or
drainage. This is accomplished by ex
cavating deep ditches at each sido of
tho roadway (where tho road passes
through level land) nnd tho construc
tion at intervals of wooden or stouo
culverts or sluiceways, in order that
the surplus water may bo turned aside
or conducted away from the roadbed.
When broken stone or cobblestone is
used as a foundation, au excavation is
mado in tho center of the roadway be
tween the two ditches to the depth of
several inches and us wide us may ho
required to build the road. This ex
cavation is filled with broken stone or
cobblestone, with the addition of sand
and gravel, and when tho roadbed is
completed it shows gradually Moping
sides from the center each way to the
ditches on the margin of the road, -St,
