aud, believing the proverb, attempted to
swallow a chicken's raw heart, but failed.
Tbe heart stuck in her throat aud would

the girl from so untimely death by chok

not be teen and the next night the Cuuuing
auimal walked into the trap with his right

red fox family. The female fox is atill at
large and in all probability will remain so

A notice to farmers and to others thus,
a man living seventeen miles from the coun
ty seat, is subpoened to attend court as a juror
and stays six days and gets bis order on tbe
county treasurer for $14, goes borne, goes
to bis neighbor, s farmer, and buys seven
teen and one-half bushels of wheat with the
order. The farmer gives the order to the
connty tax collector to help pay his county
tax. I remember when wheat breught $3
a bushel, aud a juror got $1 per day and
six cents a milage, then a juror's order
would only buy him, scarcely, two and one
balf bushels wheat and it could all be put
in one bag, now it will take seven bags to
hold the wheat that he bought with bis
county order, wheat enongh to bread his
family balf a year. With corn, oats and
potatoes it averages about the same. I ad
vise farmers and other real estate owners to
get a large lot of petition! printed to spread
broadcast over tbe country asking our Leg
islature to alter the fee Ml snd bring us
back to old times- We are constrained to
look to our own interests and in our peti
tions, we will say as Jeioboam asked of
Rehoboam, "ease though our yoke a little
and we and will serve thee." The town
ship fee bills are to high for the state of the
times. There ought to be an equtlity in
everything. Our Legislature ought ta re
doce their fee bill and will if the people get
their spunk np and show it in earnest. All
that is wanted is a starting place. Oar
township fee bills wsnt to be looked after.
The people can relieve themselves by legal
and honorable means snd save many dollars
of taxes. I hear the cry, no uuney ! no
OiOuey! no work! money too scarce to have,
tor times will Dot afford it.

Broke Through.
The Blomtleld Advocate of hut week
makes mention of the following cases of
breaking through the ice: OnToejday mora
ing list Lewis Ueckley, of Watts township,
accompanied by his wife, attempted to drive
across tbe Juniata river about five miles
above Duncannon, but broke throngh when
aooui nny ten irom snore in a swift cur
rent, whore tbe water was about live feet
deep. Wm Sbatto and a friend from this
place, chanced to pass by snd csme to their
rescue, but it waa necessary to get the as
sistance of tbe crew of a passing freight
train wno Kinaty came wltn ropes and suc
ceeded in helping the unfortunate people
ana tneir team out of danger. Tbe ice bad
to be broken almost to shore to get out tbe
almost perished horses. Mr. Heckly and
nis wile escaped unhurt. On
Tuesday Johu Schmohl, of Carlisle, in re
turning from the sale of John Duey, near
Carlisle Springs, bis sleigh wss npset and
be and another man thrown out. Tbe horse
ran on tbe ice, which broke beneath him.
Mra. Wolf seeing tbe animal struggling in
tbe ice and water, immediately rang the
farm bell, which brought people from the
sale, who rode in and cut the harness from
the animal and rescued it from drowning.
At MUlersburg tbe ice spanning
the Susquehanna, bas been used by hun
dreds during the forepart of last week, and
without showing any signs of weakness, un
til tho afternoon of the 4th inst., when a
man named Carl was taking a load of lum
ber from one of the factories, and when
about two hundred yards from shore both
horses and lumber sank into the river. Af
ter considerable splashing and excitement
tbe horses were rotten out and the lumber
was nuloaded and tbe sled taken out.

Phosphate for several years I can most
heartily recommend it to the farming com
munity. On some land recently purchased,
where the average crop was six bushels to
the acre, I have been raising for the la.st two
years twenty bushels to the acre ; and as
calculations are often made on small plots
of ground I will say that on 36 acres 1 had
724 bushels of Lancaster w heat, and in two
fields, containing from 50 to 60 acres, that
were considered almost too poor for cultiva
