From the New York Herald.
Perhaps you wouldn't think so, but very
large proportion of diseases in New York come
from carelessness about catching cold,' says
DR.. Cyrus Edison. "A cold is a very simple
thing to most people and they pay little or no
attention to it. Ii it were some serious
disease they would probably break their
necks, SO to speak. to get doctor and to fol-
low his advice. But 1t is such simple thing
and so common that very few people. unless II
is a case Of pneumonia, pay any attention to a
cold New York is one of the healthiest places
on the Atlantic coast, and yet there are a great
many cases of catarrh and consumption which
have their origin in this neglect of the simplest
precautions of every day life.
''What is commonly known as pneumonia
weather is simply that state of the atmosphere
conducive to colds and more liable to result in
something serious The climate of New York
is not nearly 20 bad for those predisposed to
consumption, catarrh and other diseases of the
respiratory organs as that of Boston and other
coast cities of the north. As to a cold the
simplest and most sensible advice is. when you
have one get rid of il as soon as possible.
By all means do not neglect it,"

Up to the present time the fisheries of the
north Atlantic have been confined almost
wholly TO the great shadows called .'banks, far
Of the New England shore where cod. haddock
and halibut are caught by means of hooks
and bait. But the fish commission has for
some time past entertained the notion that
tine waters elsewhere than on the banks might
be made greatly productive by the use of such
drag nets as are employed in British seas for
the capture of fishes, most particularly the sole
and other varieties Of the founder. which bring
a high price in the markets of this country.
The fact has been known for a long time that
the Lemon sole and the 'cock sole which
are OF the varieties so highly priced by epicures
In Europe, are enormously plentiful on the bot
tom of the Atlantic declyity. But these fishes
have been almost unknown even to the markets
or our seaports. owing to the fact that no ef-
fectlve mode of taking them was understood
lhis seems rather curious. inasmuch as the
taxing OF such fishes by ready means under like
conditions Is pursued on q vast scale from Bill
hngsgate, Hull, Grimsby and other ports of
Great Britain. The implement used for the
purpose over there is of a very simple charac-
ter and If known the beam trawl' The
reason why II has not been adopted here is to
be found IN the prejudices of the fishermen
who, like men who follow other simple crafts.
are constitutionaily indisposed TO adopt new
departures. Besides. it was feared that the
bottom was too rough for the purpose and the
water too deep.
However, il was destined that the time
should arrive when beam trawling would he
