Respectfully,
III. JOHNS(

The records and titles to real estat e
in Freeborn are said to be in a very
bad condition. There are several
persons in the county who have lived
for years on their estates, during which
time they have paid up their taxes
and othec membranes, if any on
their land and supposed that they
held the best title to their property,
but have lately found that they hold
no legal claim to their real estate pos
sessions. 1t appears that there are
comparatively few IN that county that
have eyer had an abstract title to
their land. There are some persons
in the city who have of late been
making 1t their business to search the
titles of real estate in this county. It
is said different parties have paid sew
eral thousand dollars to procure legal
titles to their own property.
A great deal of sound sense exists
in this from DR.. J. M. Buckeyes
series of "Letters to Young Men," in
the New York Christian Advocate:
Benjamin Franklin told the truth
when he said that the best knowledge
a man could give to his son was the
mastery of a good trade. Such man
is cosmopolitan. He can make HIM
self useful anywhere, and he can live
anywhere. Ifit should not be necess-
airy always to work at his trade, he
feels the ability within to support him
self. Between the average mechanic
and the great manufacturer or mer-
chant prince, great numbers can be
found who began as mechanics and
who have taken positions by their me-
chanical skill fully equal to that of the
average merchant and far superior to
that of most clerks and professional
men,
Always have in view rising above
the position of a mere journeyman.
Look at things from abroad, business
point of view. Consider that some
day you may not be a journeyman,
and try to study the relations of the
capital to labor, and to master the
principles of business, so that, if you
should ever form a partnership with
business man, you will not be at
his mercy, and so that if you choose,
you may at any time enter upon BUSH
ness for yourself, and not fritter away
your life in vain effort to overcome
by mechanical skill financial OBJ
stacles."

The Hudson Bay route Is deservedly
attracting a great amount of attention
from the papers of the Northwest.
The following is from the Graceville
Transcript: "Ifreaders will examine
q map, it will be seen that the pro-
position to connect the great north
west by natural water routes is not
only feasible one, but it is grand in
the extreme. 1t is so extended in its
benefits that the mind can scarcely
grasp 1t in all its bearings. 1t pro-
proposes to give cheap inter commu-
uication to the most fertile portions
Of the North American Continent,
from the Gulf of Mexico to Hudson
Bay. This century may not witness
it's corsummation, but it Is as sure to

The Boom Continues.

A ten thousand dollar school house
to be erected this season.
AT a special school meeting at the
school house ON Monday evening,
bonds were voted to the amount of
ten Thousand dollars for the purchase
of Il site and the erection OF II school
building upon the east side OF the
track in our village. For some time
it has been known that the present
school building, fine and commodious
as it is, is entirely inadequate to the
needs of the school and has been
patent to all that another building of
similar or even greater proportions is
a nect ssity. AT the meeting on Mon
day evening, members of the school
and others explained the needs of
the district after which bonds were
voted as above stated. The selection
and purchase ia site and the erection
of the new building is lett entirely to
the board of education. The only in-
structions given the board are that
the school house be made OF brick.
The block just north of the new
court house, the block upon which the
old county buildings stand, and vari-
Gus blocks in Morris addition have
each been named as desirable sites
but none of them as yet are definitely
decided upon. The new structure
when completed will be credit to
the village and be another of the
many evidences of the broad minded
liberality of our people.

liquor sold. Every additional saloon
increases the amount of liquor con-
summed. The Dispatch adds: Many
additional and equally forcible argu-
ments could be adduced, but these
Will suffice. The fallacy of the pro-
hibitionists cry that u license law is a
league with hell, has been exposed a
thousand times. The only other ar
gument which has been adduced
against high license is that it tends to
q monopoly; becausei it is an unjust
attempt to drive the poor and the
humble out of the business by which
they earn their livelihood. We
answer that high license is not mon
opoiy; that this is business in which
the public welfare demands that there
should be restrictions of u kind that
can be enforced. 1t must therefore be
a restriction that brings with it re-
sponsibility. The counter argument
only means that the right to sell liquor
should be free to all. For if high
license is unjust to a poorer class OF
dealers, Il low license is unjust to a
still poorer class. The state has a
right to confine the sale of an article
which may injure the state to those
who can bear the penalty. of it's abuse.
Farmers can not ue too careful
about cleaning seed and many advo-
cate picking over all seed by hand.
We present the following from an ex-
change for the consideration of our
readers:
Suppose a. puts in his winter leis-
ure in manipulating seed for forty
acre field. With his clean seed he
may get only 20 bushels to the acre, or
800 bushels in all, but he will be pretty
sure to get No. grade when he sells
it. Now suppose that his neighbor B.
puts in seed foul with weeds and
cookie, is it not fair to predict that
his yield will he at least 100 bushels
less, and is it not still more probable
that he will get from five to ten cents
less per bushel than his neighbor,
when it is graded? Even if he man
ages to get No. 2. he will lose as COM
pared with his neighbor 100 bushels to
No. wheat, at say so cents, above
and hauling, or $50. Add
to this difference of five cents per
bushel on his 700 bushels, or $35, and
you have the handsome sum of $85
which A. receives directly for his la
Dor in handricking. But this is only
one item of AS possible reward. Sup
posing both fields reasonably clean
from weeds when the seed was put in,
while A's remains so for another crop,
BIS field is left in condition to tax
the next crop at least dollar an acre
to support the miserable pauper weeds
upon it, and at the same time it, is an
eyesore and a pestilence to every clean
farmer in the vicinity. 1t is a pity that
the consequences of foul tillage are not
visited Oh the shiftless farmer, but
that his clean neighbor must suffer
with him, and keep up war of ex-
against his neighbours
weeds. It was not long since we heard
! farmer with such neighbors as we
awe supposed declaring that he had
ought against weedy farms on two
sides of him for years, but now he was
OH three sides with such
fields he meant to give up the fight,
md buy farm elsewhere, where he
could have an even chance with the
weeds.

A New Bug Killer.

A European journal relates that a
few months since wOrkmen employed
upon some constructions upon the
bank Of the river Dneiper, in central
Russia, employed the electric light to
enable them to prosecute their labors
at night. The brilliant rays of light
attracted so many millions of noctur-
nal moths, beetles and other insects
that from time to time it was neces-
sary to stop work and set all hands to
destroying the clouds of winged VIC
Tins that frequently completely OBJ
scured the light. This suggested the
idea of employing the electric light to
destroy nocturnal insects prejudicial
to agriculture, and experiments in
that direction are to be tried next
spring. Not only to insects but to
fish the light proved fatally attrac-
tive. Its rays, directed to the sui face
OF the water, drew together vast
quantities Of all the fish found in the
Dneiper, and when within the
charmed field OF illumination they
lay crowded together il masses,
seemingly blinded and stupetied.
The workmen, improving the oppor-
tunity, made a notable haul of fish.
