e. McElliott Of Ryan Has Hand
~ Terribly Lacerated by
Machine.

Joe Neman, well-known farmer
residing a few miles east Of Man
chester, met with a serious automo
bile accident Friday morning while
coming to this city. While Mr.
Nieman was on his way to this city
his supply Of gasoline gave out and
he telephoned to Mr.. M. p, Nieman
to bring a supply with him when
he came to Mr.. Nieman's place to
assist with the work Of filling a
silo. After supplying the machine
with gasoline Mr.. Nieman attempted
to start it with the self-starter,- but
did not succeed in getting It. start
ed. He then stepped from the ma
chine and started to crank the en-
giDe. Before he left the machine he
forgot to release the gears, and as
soon as he cranhed the engine the
heavy machine stsrted up suddenly,
throwing it's owner to the ground
and passing over him. In passing
over Mr.. Nieman the front axle
doubled him up in such a position e.'-s
to fracture the bone in his right
limb near the hip joint, and causing
painful flesh bruises to his limbs
and chest, and also inflicting an
ugly scalp wound. After the machine
passed over Mr.. Nieman it swerved
off to one side Of the road, running
up steep incline and tearing down
the barbed wire fence, finally land
ing in a plowed field. Aside from
a few scratches the machine es-
capped without any serious damage.
Shortly after the, accident an auto
load. from Edgewood appeared on
the scene. The men in the par
ty backed the machine out OF the
plowed field and brought the injured
man to Park View hospital, where
he is receiving the best of care. The
Injuries have caused Mr.. Nieman
much pain, and will confine him to
his bed In the hospital for several
weeks. That Mr.. Nieman es-
capped with his life seems nothing

Nieman had engaged large force of

MANCHESTER PEoPLEySo ON EAs-
TERN TRIP. ]:
Princess Anne, Maryland, Z.
Q

Editors Democrat: 5t$s..s3 XII
To those who are unacquainted
with the eastern shore Of Maryland,
a brief and partial description may
be Of interest. stlf
OF course soils vary in different
localities but in our wanderings we
dropped off at Princess Anne, situ-.
ated midway between the Chesapeake
bay and Atlantic ocean, and found
conditions very favorable for all the
needs Of mankind in general. i
Soil is good, easily worked and
producing abundant crops of all
kinds, corn, tomatoes, potatoes and
strawberries being the standard
shipping produce.
The early tomatoes, which begin
to ripen about the middle OF May,
are shipped to the cities, while the
later crop is canned at the numer-
Gus canneries located at convenient
distances all through the country.
The tons and tons of tomatoes now
being delivered look as though Mary,
land might supply the world.
This is a fine corn country, "a the
long growing season giving the
grain plenty Of time to mature. b,
Late potatoes are now in bloom,
having been planted after the early
crop was taken off the ground,
Strawberries yield abundantly and
are easily cultivated.
{ Sweet potatoes and melons are
fine and yield well. Poultry does
we'll, eggs and chickens bringing in
a good revenue the year round.
All, kinds Of live stock would do
well here but the native population
has been in the habit of keeping
only what they needed for family
use. There is good demand just
now for milk cows as q creamery has
recently been built at this point
Grasses, clovers and forage crops OF
all kinds can be raised in abund-
ance for the feeding of live stock,
also for the enriching Of the SOIL
Crimson clover and winter vetch
are sown in the fall, pastured dur
ing the winter, then plowed under
in the spring, giving a rich bed
for the summer crops.
The late hay. crop of COW peas and
miliet is now being moved away,
our host using his automobile in.
stead Of q team for hosting the hay
IOTk. - oOy UedLS, al 1uue1Sc SAO"-
er, will soon be ready to cut. The
feeding season is short, green for.
age growing most Of the so-called
winter. as
Shipping facilities are excellent
both by rail and boat. This town Is
located on the Pennsylvania railroad
about half way between Cape Charles
and philadelphia. There are four
teen daily trains besides several
extras and numerous boat landings
along the river.
Roads are fine, the state roads
being macadamized, while the coun-
ty rcsds are being paved with oyster
shells.
People preferring strictly fresh
oysters can buy them as they are
taken from the beds for forty cents
per bushel, they she'll out about four
quarts to the bushel I am told.
Princess Anne has about 1900 In
habitants, two banks with capital
of over a million dollars, three
churches, grade and high schools.
also an academy and industrial
trading school for colored people.
The surrounding farms are owned
and occupied by the. whites, en-
ploying mostly colored labor. The
colored population here is indus
trious, intelligent and law abiding,
THEY are employed on the farms and

half their farm from this years crop.
Among the things they planted was
some corn they raised while on the
Frank Swindle farm. Mr.. Carlson
brought home some of the corn. 1t
was just beginning to dent and Nr.
Anderson had gathered some which
was well dented for seed for next
year. He said he expected it would
take about three years to get it
right for that country. y
There are large numbers of people
going into Minnesota at this time as
thrashing is in progress, so it can
be seen what has been raised and
what it is producing from the ma
chine. s5 xxx

!. Albert Carlson and j. w. Tarltop

While there they visited the Mime

growing corn were seen. The farm
ers in that section who are growing
corn. think they will husk out about
80 bushels to the acre. Wheat is
going to be a short crop but oats
and barley are producing large, flax

tatoes are yielding $50 to 200 BUSH
