Farmers in this county have become
seriously alarmed for the wheat crop
sown this year. An extensive rust hiss
already appeared -something unprece-
denied fer this time OF the yesr. Be-
sides this the drought had beac he'd the
wheat in many places nearly white.
Shelbyvii!e. Mo, Herald: The Hes
sian Fly is slaughtering the Fall wheat
mercilessly. We have learned of sever
al farmers who have plowed up their
tiel DIS and resown them.
The Monroe County, Mo-, Appeal

Ice crop SDlenulu. Sleighing beautiful. Business depressing. Bathing in Still River. least-pan- cakes sour, and sickness all the go. It is rumored that the Rev. Mir. Bogar- dus, pastor of the Dutch Reform Church, intends to move from this place.
 Two weeks ago Thursday, Henry Gray had one of his toes badly bruised by n cake Of ice falling upon it.
 A young man in town whose mother did not feel well the other morning, told her that she had better stay in bed and he would get his own breakfast. Accord ingly with due deliberation he commenced to set the table, which he accomplished after some trouble, to his satisfaction; it being ornamented ill different places with stove litter, poker, and other impliments that he had used during the morning to poke tho fire with, and after cooking his pancakes he sat down to enjoy the feast. The next moment there was Sputtcr, and the cry of motheri what ill thunder is the matter with these pancakes? Why, noth- ing; Which pail did you take? The one on the end Of the shelf. Why, that had yeast in. If that young man, who, the next moment, was seen striding toward the gate with his hat over his eyes,
 
 that yeast will fail to do its duty. MT. David Burdic'1, of Long Meadow has opened q meat market in d building near the mill. Success to David. Mir. Lewis Osborne, an old resident of | this town, a 1nan nearly 80 years old, d 1 carpenter Dy trade, injured his knee about | two years ago, and it has been growing continually worse ever since, and for Sev- | putin that it was thought advisable to have 1t off. Dr. Hubbard, of Bridgeport, was summoned Tuesday the If, and with the aid of Dr. Williams, amputated the wound ed member, about two inches above the knee, when it was found that the bono was dccaye9 in d frightful manner. At | last accounts Mir. Osborne had fully re- eorcrei from the effects Of the chlol oforr which was administered. Great hopes are entertained of his recovery.

 The folks have all got their ice-houses filled with the best crop of ice that has been taken from the river for years.
 Last week Wednesday, while we were endeavoring to cross the river, we stepped upon place where they had been cutting ice the day before, and was frozen ovel with but thin sheet of ice, upon which there was thin coat of snow that hic all traces of the dangerous trap.
