WINTER CANALS.

Stratling Proposal Of Rochester Pro-
iector-Watertight Boats Under the
Ice.
AS your readers have somewhat
more interest in the subject Of naviga-
ton on the Erie canal than is enter
tanned by residents of other cities,
venture to offer for their consideration
an idea in regard to the canal that
may be worth second thought. 1t is
a proposal to keep the canal in use all
winter for the transportation of grain.
AS the capacity of the waterway is
reduced one-half by the present prac-
tice of suspending navigation during
six months of the year, 1t is evident
that If plan In perfected by which the
movement Of grain to the seaboard can
be carried on in boats without inter-
ruption all the year round the project
will be important. I believe that the
advocates Of the work of canal enlarge
ment under way do not expect to dou-
BILE it's capacity even by the expendi-
ture of $9,000,000, and such other sums
as the people in their liberality may be
moved to appropriate. But, if my pro-
posal proves to be founded on sound
principles, the value Oh the Cdndl Will
be doubled Immediately, and at no ap-
preciable expense to the state. In fact,
it may be desirable to suspend the
work now under way, thus, of course.
obviating the necessity of further draft
on the public treasury.
The plan which I contemplate is to
construct submarine boats, that will
run under the ice, and operate them
during the months when ordinary ca
nal boats are laid up.
The style of boats / would construct
for the purpose is a simple structure
of steel, built on the lines best adapt
ed to canal navigation. 1t would have
to be as tight as a steam boiler, for it
would be constantly submerged on its
voyages, only coming to the surface to
take on and discharge its cargo. For
carrying grain the boat need have no
opening except apertures to receive
the legs of an elevator. These open

ings could be closed watertight by

ings could be closed watertight by
covers, to be bolted on.
The towing of such q boat could be
done either by animal power, steam, or
electricity. If the electric towage COM
pany ever takes working form, it can
provide means for hauling the boats.
But until that time arrives the best
results will be reached by applying
steam power to a propeller of which
the machine is borne above the sur
face of the ice by an arm or centre
board arising from a hull or float un-
derneath the ice.
There would be a slot or channel cut
through the ice for the passage of the
cenreboard. This could be done by a
circular saw run by the steam engine.
The channel for the centreboard need
be but few inches wide. When there
were many boats moving the channel
would seldom freeze, and there would
be but little trouble in keeping it open.
In such winter as this has been there
would not be a score of days on which
the temperature would make ice over
an inch thick in the channel. The ex-
istence of the channel in the ice would
reduce the pressure on the banks of
the canal caused by the expansion of
the ice, and would thus protect the
banks from danger.
No doubt there would be more than
the usual work required at the locks to
keep them in operation during very
cold weather. But that would involve
no more labor or distress than is UNI
dergone by sailors on shipboard, and is
of little account when compared with
the advantages of having the work of
shipping so ON for twelve months in
| the year.
The boats to be employed in this sys-
| tenn should be ballasted by water, that
| is, compartment would be provided
| into which water should be pumped to
sink the craft below the ice; to raise
| the boat the water will be pumped out.
| The boats would be steered by project
| ing arms fixed to the stop Of the craft
and coming up through the ice. which
would, Of course guide the boat along
| the line Of the channel cut by the cir
cular saw in front of the propeller

Experience teaches the impor- u
lance of special care of the health. Y
And fixed among the impor-
tant principles of hygiene and health is
the acknowledged necessity of a good
Spring Medicine.
Just as firmly established by the ex-
periences of millions of people, is the
positive fact that Hoods Sarsaparilla
is "far and away" the best blood puri-
fer and spring medicine ever produced.
The necessity is found in the inn
pure condition Of the blood at this
season, owing to the close confine-
ment and breathing vitiated air in Of
flee, store, shop, house, schoolroom
or factory; excessive eating and drink
ing too rich and hearty food; late
hours and social indulgences. With
the blood thus thick and impure, the
machinery of life grinds hard.
Hoods Sarsaparilla purifes, vital
ICES and enriches the blood, builds up
and strengthens the nerves and tones
the stomach. 1t oils up the machinery
of the whole body; the liver takes up
its work anew, the kidneys resume
activity, the ache goes out Of the back,
the bowels are regulated, the appetite
restored, the food is relished and as
simulated.
Don't wait till you are thoroughly
sick before you begin to take Spring
Medicine.
