securing in superior condition the album
dant hay crop. Only a small proportion
of the crop has been gathered. but the
standing grass is reported in most sec
tons to be of heavy growth and of fine
quality. The crop promises to be little
since 1850. and nearly one-fourth greater
than the crop of 1855. With favorable
weather for harvesting the State will
produce something like 100000 tons of
2.l3 inches of rain fell in June, vet the
hay crop is larger than for several years
The years 1850 and lSS3 We're notable fol
their abundant harvests. Several cause,

which may be mentioned severely colo

TREATMENT OF ANEURIsM.
One of Hunters Experiments Which
Made an Epoch.

The unwilling OF the Queens statue of
John Hunter, at oxford, by Princess
Christian, and the address which was de-
lvered on that occasion by Sir James
Paget recall 20 the London News some of
Hunters achievements, among them GER
tain experiments which are immortal, in
the sense that they were epoch making in
the treatment Of diseases which before his
day were regarded as essentially Of "A fatal
nature. For instance, the treatment Of
aneurism, disease which consists in an
expansion Of certain of the coats of blood
vessels. was revolutiOnized by the results of
Hunters work. An apparently hopeless
case OF this ailment had been placed un-
der Hunters care. 1t affected the great
main vessel Of the Leg, and the only re-
source in those days was amputatiOn of
the limb. But Hunter had previously ex-
Derimented upon the growth OF antlers in
the deer at Richmond park, u privilege
which had been granted him by the King.
One Of the vessels supplying the growing
antler with nutrition had been tied. The
nutritive supply being cut off the antler
became cold, and was apparently ready 10
die. In a week or two Hunter, TO his as
tOaIshment, beheld the horn growing
warm, as il its vitality was returning.
Growth was actually resumed, and,
on examination, was found TO be-
due to the fact that enlargement
OF the vessels above and below the site OF
the ligature had taken place, and that in
consequence the blood supply had been
iDgeniously re-established. applying this
TACT 10 the case OF aneurism Hunters clear
mind grasped the idea Of utilizing IL in
the cure OF the diseases OF humanity and
in the saving OF life and limb. He opera
ted with singular success, and his treat I
ment OF aneurism is the treatment Of to-
day. His fourth patient lived for fifty
years after the operation suggested by the
antlers OF the stag; and, appropriately
enough, the specimen illustrating the case
finds place on the shelves OF the museum
in J.incolns-Inn-felds.
