SURGICAL OPERATION.
Stanley IImlbert'S Left Leg Ampmated
Above the Knee at the Maryland
University Hospital.

The many friends of Stanley
llumbert, aged II years, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Ulysses G. Hum.
bert of lower Ayr township, are
hoping that the worst is over with
Stanley and that he will speedily
recover.
1t has already been told IN the
News that Stanley had tubercu-
losis of the bone, and that upon
the advice of his local physician
he was taken about the first of
June to the Maryland University
Hospital, Baltimore, Md, for, a
surgical operation.
Upon examination by special
lists at the hospital, 1t was found
that part of the bones IF his left
leg below the knee were soft as
cheese, and that the only possi-
billty Of checking the ravages Of
the disease was to amputate the
leg above the knee. But the vi
tality of the young man was at so
low an ebb, that the surgeons
feared that if an operation were
to be made at that time, Stanley
would not rally from the shock.
Hence, they set about building
up his general physical condition,
and en- last Thursday the amputa
ton was made, and Stanley came
out 10 fine shape.
HIS friends are very hopeful
now that he may soon be able to
be brought home, and that his
restoration to health may be per.

and destroy the eggs. This is
advisable on a single farm, even
though others do not act in ac.
cordance. In following this meth
cd 1t does not become very i'm.
portant as to whether this was a
field that was IN wheat this year
OF not. You will be ahead of the
fall brood of the llesslan fly. The
only trouble is, that if your neigh
Dor should plant too early, his
wheat will receive the eggs from
the flies that are now IN the stub
BILE, and then If his wheat is near
yours, next spring the flies will
come to yours from his, and 1t is
this spring brood that is especi-
ally destructive by making the
straw break and fall, as mention.
ed above. Therefore co opera
ton IN late seeding, or unlformi-
ty in this, throughout the entire
section, is the keynote to the best
possible method of avoiding de.
struction by the Hessian fly.
There is no known remedy after
1t once enters the plant.
IL is wrongly believed that the
fly attacks the grams themselves.
1t does not work IN the head OF
the grain, The insects dong this

demand entire different treat.

state a small moth has been ex-

best possible remedy is to tbresh
from a field as early as possible.
This has proven effective and sat.

Acres Of Diamonds.

The Hancock, Md Star last
week publishes a list of thirty.
nine orchards, part of which are
in this county and the rest In the
vicinity of Hancock which con.
tam 26751l peach and apple
trees, and cover 3,249 acres,
For many years 1t was thought
that the Tonoloway basin, much
of which lies within the borders
of Fulton county was not very
valuable for agricultural pur-
poses, but within the last few
years it has been discovered that
1t is the best fruit land in the
eastern part of the United States,
and that the owners of the soil
are really possessors of "Acres

FATAL ACCIDENT AT FORT LOUDON.
Garnett GiSh, son Of Christian GiSh,
Fatally Injured by Being Kicked
in the Back.

On Wednesday of last week
Garnett Glsh, son of Christian
Glsh, the Miller at the Loudon
Brick Mills, while playing with
number of boys IN the school
yard at that place, was kicked in
the back by a boy by the name
Kahn, from the effects Of which
he died on Sabbath. The facts
in the case as we have been able
to gather them are as follows:
The boys were throwing apples
at each other, when a boy by the
name of Kahn hit Garnet with an
apple. Garnet then in play re
turned the throw at Kahn, but
hit Kahn's younger brother.
Kahn then took up the matter and
had an alteration with Garnet.
In the fight Kahn is alleged to
have kicked Garnet on the back.
Garnet said nothing at home
either about the injury or the
fight. On last Sunday he came
to town with his father to
visit his grandfather. Garnet
walked to Red Bridge Park and
upon his return complained of
feeling sick and having pain in
the back. He went home
on Sunday evening" and
went to bed. DR.. Menger was
sent for and found the lad in a
high fever. He had a severe pain
IN his back. DR.. Menger made
several visits a day to his patient,
who did not improve. On Satur.
day night the boy had turn for
the worse and Sunday morning
he died in great agony.
The boy was large aud healthy
and had never been sick during
his life. 1t was feared that death
had resulted from the kick he re.
celved and for that reason Coron.
er John G. Greenewalt was notl-
fed, and with Drs. Devor and
White he went to Loudon Sun
day and summoned the following
jury; Joseph $. Rotz, John W.
Gillian, g D. Smith, John H.
Metz, w. S. Hassler and G. w. |
Lawyer. The jury was sworn in
the presence of the body and ad.
journed until Monday morning
when the following verdict was
brought IN.
"We find that Garnet Gish |
came to his death from injuries
received at the hands of Frank
L. Kahn at Fort Loudon, July 10,
and further find that there were
mitigating circumstances and
that while the fight began In play,
the results were not only serious
but fatal.
"We are of the opinion that
there was an intent to lnjure but
not to kill and that death was
therefore accidental. (Slgned) |

GOOD SHOWING.
Report Shows High Grade Of Dairy
Cows in This State. Milk
in Good Condition.

Harrisburg, Pa, July 31.~
Dairy and Food Com missioner
Foust has issued statement of
the results of his Bureaus lnves.
legations made this Summer un-
der the New Milk and Cream Act
and the Act Prohibiting the Ad-
dition of Milk and Cream of Dye.
stutfs and Drugs, such as were
formerly much used as preserva-
tlves.
The Commissioner reports that
1000 samples have been purchas.
ed by his Agents in about $50
cities and towns representing
nearly every county of the Com
monwealth. In but eight lnstan.
ces was formaldehlde discovered,
six of these beng in Allegheny
County, one IN Johnstown and
one IN York. No other preserva.
tives and no added dye were IN
any case detected. This the Com.
missioner notes, is a most excel
lent showing as contrasted with
the conditions existing a few
years ago, when such additions
were of common occurrence.
The Commissioner furth er
states that the dairy COWS of
Pennsylvania have placed the
stamp of their approval upon the
new milk law. OF the 1000 sam
pies examined only about 200
were found considerably below
standard, and of these about two.
thirds were milks, one-third
creams. The Deficiencies found
were not the fault of the COW,
but were due to the pump and
the SKINNER to whose friendly
offices some distributors still
turn for profit.
An English food expert once
SAID of milk standards that their
only fault was that the COW had
not been consulted in their max.
ing. This, the Commissioned
adds, can not fairly be SAID of the
present standards, which are
those of the National Government
and were adopted by it upon the
recommendation of a board of
experts acting under authority Of
Congress and after a careful
study of the dairy conditions IN
all parts of the country.
1t is the purpose of the Com.
missioner to continue vigorously
to enforce the milk laws, so that
the people and more especially
the children of the State may be
assured of a good, wholesome
supply OF this important food.
