Th Newport Ledger relate the folio
log serious accident : It is cur painful duty
to the record the sad misfortune that occur
red to Mr. John P human, an aged citizen of
Juniata township, by which he lost bis left
hand. The particular of the affair, as near
a could be learned, are these i Mr. Shu-
man, (a all farmer are,) was engaged in
gathering hi harvest, and on Tuesday morn
ing about seven o'clock went towards hi
Held or ripe grain with a cradle over his
shoulder, and, in attempting to climb over
fence, hissed his hold and fell backwards,
with hi left hand immediately upon the
sharp edge of the cradle scythe, cutting his
band from its base on tbe outside diagon
ally across the palm between the thumb and
forefinger, levering it completely, a.' if dune
by a skillful surgeon, tbe amputated fingers
and hand baxging to the arm by a small
shred of skin. Tbe accident occurred near
the barn, and the injured man walked to the
house ia this condition, a distance of about
three hundred or more feet. Dr. Shull, of
Markleville, was summoned, who hastened
to the scene, and who in turn sent for Dr.
H. O. Orris, of Newport. The two medi
cal men bound np she Injured member and
allowed it to remain tntil reaction set in,
which was sometime in the afternoon, when
the doctors assisted by Mr. James Seibert,
a student of Dr. Orris amputated tbe bird
about four inches above the base of the in
jured member. Considering the aje cf Mr.
Sbumae he being seventy-nine years old
he stood the operation admirably well,
and, after his recovery from the intluence
of the anesthetic used to deaden hi nerves
and Sensibilities, he rallied and became
quite talkative, remarking that he "had
hoped he would not go to his grave a crip
ple." Ala ! his hope were not realized,
as tbe above account of the unfortunate
affair will prove.
A wama for the Oarrisburg Telegraph
send tbe following from York, Pa., last
week: Near this borough is tbe farm of
Mr. J. M. Heiges, one of the most success'
ful wheat grower on this continent. On
one piece of land he baa raised wheat seven
years in succession, including tbe present
growing crop, which competent judges ay,
will yield sixty bushels to the acre. Mr.
Heige had several different varieties grow
ing, and all that he would part with was dis
posed ot to United States Commissioner
of Agriculture Le Due, on the occasion of
his visit here this week. Tbe price of
wheat in this market thia week is about
$1.18 per bushel, but Mr. Heiges averaged
more than double that for all he sold. His
success in wheat raising is accounted for by
the fact that he manures heavily with acorn
puilnd of potash, plaster and salt 400 lb,
to the acre tbat he thoroughly pulverizes
his soil ; put the Seed in the ground one
half inch deep, la row about twelve Inches
wide and space of ten or twelve inches be
tween for cultivation with horse and culti
vator. I counted the product of one grain
by this process, and found forty-eight stalks,
with a well-developed hesd on each stalk,
growing from it. Tbe largest crop of wheal
Mr. Heighes has ever raised from on acre
of ground was something over one acre of
ground was something over seventy-one
bushels. The two principal varieties he is
growing this year are the Mold and the
Heighe Prolific. The latter waa ripe
enough to cut, and one of hi neighbors, a
Mr. Ilcke, had his crop of the same variety
already cut and in sheaves. I thiuk any
farmer who wants to learn something of
great practical value about wheat raising
can pick np more on this farm in one day
than be could in any otter way in a month.

THE BEST REMEDY
Diseases of tbe tat ana Vm
Diseases of the
pulmonary organ
are so prevalent ami
fatal, that a safe and
reliable remedy for
them is invaluable
to every community.
At sa's Chekbt
Pectoral is such a
remedy, and no
other so eminently
merits the conri-
le pu
it is a scientific com
'li nation of the medi-
l cinal principles and
enrative virtues of
' tliA fin! ilrnirx.
PECTORAL, chemically unill,
est possible efficiency and uniformity of re
suits, which enables pbysk ians aa well as
invalids to nse it with ronhiienre. it is
tbe most reliable remedy for iliseuji ot
the throat and lungs that science has pro
duced. It strikes at the foundation of all
pulmonary diseases, affording prompt
and certain relief, and ia adapted to pa
tients of any age or either aex. ftttng
very palatable, the youngest children
take it without ditticultv. In the treat
ment of ordinary Coughs, Colds, Sort)
Throat, Bronchitis, Influenza, Cler
gyman's Sow Th roa t. Asthma, Croup,
and Catarrh, the effects of Atfk's
Cherry Pectoral are magical, end inultl
tttde are annually preserved from seriotii
iilness by its timely and faithful iw. It
should lie kept at hand in every house
hold, for the protection it affords In sud
den attacks. In Whooping-cough and
Consumption there Is no other remedy
so efficacious, soothing, and helpful.
The marvellons cure which Ayth's
Cherry Pectoral ha effected alt over
the world are a sufficient guaranty thar it
will continue to produce tlie Ix-st nwilt-i.
An impartial trial will convince the ra-t
Sceptical of itil wonderful enrative power,
as well as of its superiority over all other
preparations for pulmonary complaints.
Eminent physicians Irr all parts of tho
country, knmvins its comjrsition, recom
mend A vrtt's CiiEKitr I'EcroRAL to inva
lids, and prescribe it in their fcraitfice.
The test of half a century has proved its
absolute certainty to cure all imlinrinarr
complaints not already beyond the reach
of human aid.
