The Terrible Frost = Had a
confagration swept over our county 1t
could hardly have been more disastrous
than was the work of the unrelenting
Frost King last Saturday night. The
farmers have been rejoicing in a re-
markable season of prosperity. Every
thing indicated bountiful harvests, but
in one night all has been swept away.
Corn is dead. Buckwheat is killed.
Late potatoes are cut off, and, in fact,
every manner of crop is almost totally
destroyed, and this too, on a night al
most in mid summer. Upon the cran-
berry men particularly does the disas-
ter fall with crushing weight. Our
county was rejoicing in most abund-
ant crop of berries, larger than ever
before known. Thousands of barrels
would have been gathered where now
only few hundred wlls be the return
for years of toll and months Of ankle
ty. Invariably the marshes are swept
over. In some localities a quarter Oh
a half crop may yet be gathered.
Upon other marshes, the yield is to-
tally destroyed. Not only is the loss
a loss to the producers. but our whole
county, yes, the whole country mus'
suffer from this unexpected though
not wholly unlocked for scourge. We
can only keep on hoping and try again
In our next issue we shall endeavor t.
give a more concise statement of th'
damage done to the several marshes In
this vicinity

cry safely reaching her brothers. house
with her two little ones at a seasonable
hour. Having plenty of time, she, in
company with Mrs. Richard Harvey
prepared for ride few miles down
the river, leaving the children at her
brothers They had scarcely seated
themselves in the buggy when the
horse began backing, The bank is
very percipitous and nearly sixty feet
to the edge of the river, though the
rains have washed the earth somewhat
making terrace about six feet below
the road surface. Over this bank the
horse backed, precipitatiDg the car
riage and its contents, the horse fol-
lowing. That all were not killed seems
miraculous. The vehicle was smashed
and the horse somewhat damaged,
while the ladies escaped without
scratch. A few feet to either side,
and the vehicle would have gone down
TO the rivers edge, a fearful fall of
over half hundred feet. The car
riage top prevented the ladies from
leapiug from the buggy as they endeav-
ored to do, A very unfortunate oc-
currence turned out to be very for
tunate affair, in its results.

Since the advent of the Wise. Val
ley Railroad the marshes are becoming
dotted with buildings. Look in what
direction you may, buildings may be
seen going up. The cranberry lands
are building them, and settling up the
country which otherwise would be al
most barren of population. It is a
fact that Wood County will be known
ere long as the wealthiest county in
the state. The cranberry lands are
not confined to the immediate locality
we have described, but are to be found
in almost every portion of the county.
That they will improve is no longer a
question. Each year adds to their
value. The vines by proper care are
spreading and running out the wire
grass and foreign growth and in short
time the marshes will have become a
perfect mat of fruit-producing vines
yielding an income which will be enor-
nous.
