UNDER A DISC HARROW

Theodore Merritt, wife of a well known
farmer living near here, had n thrilling
adventure while aiding her husband
with his farm work and narrowly es-
ceped meeting a horrible death. Her
husband had been operating a pulver-
tzer, but, desiring to drive some cattle
out of the field, he asked his wife to
drive the pulverizer until the cattle had
been cared for. In some name Mrs.
Merritt dropped n of the lines and in
STOPPING over to o it she lost
her balance and fell behind the horses.
This frightened them n they ran
away, dragging the disc over her. Her
hair caught in the machine and in this
way h vas dragged some distance,
expecting that every moment would be
her last. When released from her dam
gerous position 1t was found that she
had been cut and badly bruised, but the
worst injury was the straining of the
cords and tendons in her neck and
shoulders.

@ECRETARY WILSON, the nations farmer, puts it too mildly
when he notes that $1,000 tons Of potatoes were lately shipped
- from Scotland for New York City consumption, aud declares
that within an hours ride Of the greater city there is enough un-
cultivated land TO produce many times the amount Of this cargo Of
potatocs" Right here in the city there is enough mcultivatcd land
to do that. Figures of several years ago showed that The city was
then producing 757,l59 bushels OF potatoes. which is more than this
cargo from Scotland. Probably the average yearly yield at the pres.
emit time is double the cargo, for intensive farming within the city
