The N. II. Boats.

Geo. p. Humphrey has received notice
from Secretary French, of this popular
line of boats, that the company has APP
pointed him agent OF the line at this
place for the coming season, and that,
rs soon as determined upon, they will
forward him the rates established for the
season. The Secretary says the boats
will run as they did last year. which will
give Us three boats per week each way.
We are glad to announce to our citizens
that We are again to be served by this
well-known line, and we have no doubt
but that the company will, as in the past,
receive the liberal patronage Of our bus
mess men and citizens generally. We
presume they will start out at the earliest
opening of navigation.

A bill has been introduced III the Sen
ate providing that the State Board of
Education shall select list of text
books which shall alone be used i'm all
the primary and graded schools OF this
state. One advantage, should the bill be-
come law. would be that of uniformity
throughout the state, so that citizens in
moving from one section Of the state to
another would not be compelled to pur-
chase new books for their children in
order for them to attend school. The
great objection would be in the monOpO-
ly it would create, it giving the whole
business to one publishing firm. To OBJ
viate this it has been suggested that the
state publish its own series of text books,
furnishing them to the public at cost.
This would afford great saving to
parents, who could get the books for less
than half what they now cost.

New Railroad Project.

We notice in the Legislative Journal
that Representative Macarthur, on last
Tuesday, gave notice that at some fu--
ture day he would ask leave TO introduce
bill to grant lands to aid in the con-
struction of a railroad from the northern
terminus of the Grand Rapids 81 Indiana
railroad, in the county of Emmett, to the
village of Cheboygan, or some other
point on the straits of Mackinaw Should
such grant be male, and the road con-
structed TO this point, it would be OF very
great advantage to this section Of the
state. and more especially to the village,
for it would afford us more direct route
TO the western portion OF the state. and
to reach Chicago, where many of the
supplies needed in the various lumber
ing operations of our citizens can be
purchased to q much better advantage
than in other markets. The Grand Rap
ids & Indiana railroad must, of necessity.
have terminus upon the straits in Or
which will sooner or later be built on
the upper peninsula. and we think that
there is no more feasible point upon the
straits for that terminus than at this vii
lage. We are of the opinion that, should
the terminus be made, as originally con-
templated, at Mackinaw City, the ice
would form an unsurmountable difficulty
to the transportation of freight across
the straits during the winter season-to
say the least, there would be several
months when 1t would be extremely diff
ficult, if not impossible, to ferry cars
over the straits, and the delay would be
serious. But, we believe, with the
terminus at this point, and the terminus
OF the northern peninsula road at Detour,
or some point above on Lake Huron,
there would be no difficulty in running
large terry boat, for carrying cars, at all
seasons of the Yearly crossing from Che
boygan below Bots Blanc island; and we
think if the straits are ever successfully
ferried during the entire winter.it will
have to be below Bots Blanc island.
Log Hauling on Black River.
A correspondent from camp No. A, |
Black river, under date of 18th inst,
says: Notwithstanding the scarcity of
snow in the woods, log hauling seems to
go on pretty lively at john X. McDonald's |
camp. We note that in four successive |
days hauling there was banked no less
than one thousand and thirty-four logs,
scaling 2l5.936 feet. Yesterday (the 13th)
there was banked 76.9I1 feet, the loads
averaging 1896 feet. Quite number
were over 1000 and one lacked only 40
feet of 5000. This was all done by the
one team and one set of sleighs, the logs
ranging from u to 16 feet. How is that
for high? Bill McGourn, the boss load
er, knows just how to build load of
logs, and his assistant, Joe. LaBelle, is
not far behind. John Monaghan, the
did some big work for Mr..
Chandler last year, and he thinks his
team is good for more if ne had wider
hunks on his sleighs. He says eight feet
hunks are too short, although Bill can
make a log stay on with. Il very small
hold. Lively times for banking ground
men and all hands engaged.

Potatoes.

As an article of staple food, no
vegetable compares with the potato.
In Ireland, potatoes and buttermilk
are the principal diet, the average
laborer consuming of the former ten
pounds daily. In Holland, boiled In
fat with other vegetables, they form
the ordinary repast of the working
classes, who seldom eat meat more
than one day in the week, Science
teaches that the best proportion Of
food for the common wants of the
system are. about 9 per cent of fat,
% per cent. of fesh-formers and SO
per cent. of starch and sugar; hence,
with the addition of little milk or
butter, potatoes are capable of sus-
tanning life and activity. To pre-
serve a large percentage of the
nourishing properties of potatoes,
they should be "cOoked with their
jackets on" They need to be well
cooked, with a considerable degree
of heat; if boiled, they should be
placed at once in boiling water; II
roasted, the oven should be moder-
ately hot at the start; peeled and
soaked in cold water, the nRtritlve,
starchy matter is extracted and lost;
with slow oven, the skin will be
hardened and thickened. To secure
the fullest benefits from this Valua-
BILE vegetable much depends on
proper knowledge of the best meth
ods of cooking.

ASHTABUIAA, OHIO, FRIDAY, JULY 6, 1877

to the garret and found a reel that
his grandmother used to make yarn
for the revolutionary soldiers, nailed
some shingles on the arms for wings.
and then attached a navy revolver
to the cog wheel in such a manner
that when the fortieth revolution of
the windmill would cock it then the
indicator. which was connected with
the trigger, would snap. Well, the
pistol was loaded, and this death
dealing implement taken to the corn
field, and planted with the revolver
aimed at the part of the field infest-
ed with crows. Ben stood admlrlng
the work of his wonderful genius
waiting for the wind an anxious tor
a crow. Presently slight breeze
began to move the crow-killer, the
hammer of the pistol slowly raised,
when sudden puff changed the di-
rection so that Ben could look right
into the muzzle of it, at the same
time increasing the momentum so
that it lacked only twelve revolu-
tions of the desired number to shoot.
Did Ben smile and look happy? Not
much. He turned and lit out of the
cornfeld quicker than minute
kicking out about thirty hills of corn
clear down to the subsoh. Just at
this time the bombardment began,
and a few life insurance agents
could have found some willing Gus
toners in that neighborhood The
next morning Ben took shovel and
went up to bury his crows, but nary
a crow could he find but one, and he
was bringing back corn that he pull
ed last year.

Sleep.

Sleep, DIR. w. A. Hammond says,
may be defined as general repOse.
Almost all the organs rest during
sleep. The heart, popularity sup
posed to be in perpetual motion, Is
at rest six hours out of the twenty
four, the respiratory organs eight,
and the other organs more or less.
The brain alone is constantly en-
ployed during wakefulness, and for
it sleep was formed and made need
full to its preservation. 1t is true
that sleep does not give the brain a
total recess from labor; imagination
and memory are often wildly active
during sleep, and unconscious cere-
bration likewise takes place, but
enough rest is obtained for the reno
vation of the brain, and that which
has been torn down during wakeful-
ness is to a certain extent rebuilt.
Sleep is a most wonderful power
often stronger than the will, as in
the case of the sleeping soldier-and
more mighty than pain, as when
sick persons and tortured prisoners
sleep in the midst of their suffering.
No torture, it is said, has been found
equal to the prevention of sleep,
The amount of sleep needed differs
according to the constitution ana
habits. Big brains and persons VINO
perform much brain labor need
large amount of sleep. Children
need more sleep than grown people
because construction Is more active
than decay in their brains.

The Trade winds.


The earth turns on It's axis from
west to east, and with it rotates dai-
lv the enormous envelope of the at
mosphere. The velocity of rotation
at the equator is something over one
thousand miles an hour; at thirty
degrees distance it is about $50 miles
less. In higher latitudes it is still
less, and at the poles nothing; there
fore. whenever the air moves north
or south on the surface of the earth
it will carry with it less or greater
velocity of the rotation than the
place it passes over, and will turn
into an easterly or westerly wind,
ooo,,rding as it approaches or rsccssdes
60 H. >auateF, In the region of
the fe's sun's rTs : o,rsates beat, the air, rare
fed and hghtened, is -- ''4- sa '','' =
rising, and cooler currents con. -
on both sides to take the place of
the ascending volume. As these side
currents come from a distance of
about thirty degrees from the equa-
tor, they have, at starting, an east
ward velocity many miles an hour
less than the localities they viii
eventually reach. Consequently they
will appear to lag behind in all the
course of their progress to the equa-
is, they viii have wester-
ly motion united with their north
and south movements. These are
the great trade winds, blowing con-
stantly from the northeast on this
side, and the southeast on the other
side of the equator.

Fruit Trade In Generar

The fruit trade in Geneva tbrouob
the house of G. G. Gleason, has come
to be one of the important industries
of the place, and much greater than
anything of the kind between Cleve-
land and Erie. At the close of the
oyster trade, IN March, he begins to
receive fruit for the season, and it
comes in jobbing lots, by the car
load, from that time on. Up to the
present week, since his first car load
in March, he has received about
$500 boxes of oranges and lemons,
and they are all closed out. He
markets them in Job lots in eastern
Ohio and western Pennsylvania
selling them close up to Cleveland
on the west, and in the city of Erie
on the east. He has the trade well
in hand, and dealers and consumers
find they can buy of him to advan-
tage. In addition to oranges and
lemons, he handles pineapples, ba-
nanas and cocoa nuts, and has sold
largely of these fruits. He is still in
the retail grocery and provision
trade, contrary to the impression
that has gone out to some extent,
his wholesale department being only
an additional feature. Mr.. @. IS
about adding to his iobbing trade
that of canned fruit. Times.
