The Tamahac Or TOmahawk.

Tamahac eventually came to desig-
nate the "war hatchet" of the Indian,
supplied by the military commanders
of the whole continent in equipping the
warriors on the many expeditions in
which French and English were con-
stantly engaged, and was furnished
the Indian allies of the English in our
war of independence.
This weapon was either in the form
of a spear or Ratchet blade on one side,
while upon the opposite side there was
a cuplike cavity, with small hole ex-
tending into the eye Of the weapon, In
to which a tough handle of wood was
The handle was perforated almost its
entire length, and below the hollow Of
the bowl it was bored at right angles
to this perforation, a suitable stemhole
for the passage Of the tobacco smoke
when the implement was in use as q
pipe.
The tomahawk pipe was not only at
tractive and popular in trade, but, like
the earlier trade pipe, was given as a
present at councils and Publications of
treaties. It was pipe, a Ratchet and
q mace or hammer all in one and an
swered an important military require
ment in lessening the weight and in
cumbrance of the warrior, who other
wise would have tenaciously held to
the stone pipe, which in itself was
heavier than the tomahawk. - Smith

interesting things the other day about
the constant shift in the character of
crops in Wisconsin. 1t almost seems
as if the soil had less to do with what
shall be raised than the demand.
Take hops, for example, he said, as
reported in the Appleton Post. There
was time back in the '7Os when near
1y every other farmer had a hop yard
and made money out of it. The hop
picking season was the event of the
year for the young people. They gath
cred from far and near, working hard
during the day, and spending the great
er part of the night in the hop house
dancing or playing games. Hops de-
clined rapidly from 90 and IS cents a
pound to II cents, and farmers soon
commenced to devote their time to
something more profitable Some of
the hop houses were converted into
barns, while others stand today relics
of the past. The poles and there were
thousands of them, were either cut up
into stove wood or permitted to decay.
The sugar crop is also thing of the
past. At one time nearly every farmer
had a good sugar bush, but what lit
tie maple timber is still standing yields
an inferior quality of sap, and small
amount at that Since the introduce
ton of cheap syrups, sorghum is yield
ing rapidly to the inevitable. The cane
is still raised to some extent in the vi
cinity of Hortonyille and Stephens
vile, but for home consumption only.
At one time wheat was the principal
crop raised in the county, but such is
no longer the case. In fact, grain is
rapidly disappearing altogether, and it
will not be many years before farm
ers will raise only enough for their
stock.

THE SCENT OF THE ONION.
BY Any Other Name 1t Would Be as Far
from Sweet,

BY Any Other Name 1t Would Be as Far
from Sweet.
1t is interesting to make inquiry into
the cause of this unfortunate quality
OF the onion. 1t is simply due to the
presence in some quality of another
mineral matter in the bulb-sulphur.
1t is this sulphur that gives the onion
its germ-killing property and makes
the bulb so very useful a medicinal
agent at all times. but especially in
the spring, which used to be-and still
is in many places-the season for TAX
ing birthstone and treacle in old-fash-
ioned houses before sulphur tablets
came into vogue.
Now, sulphur, when united in hy-
drogen, one of the gases OF water,
forms sulphurated hydrogen and then
becomes foul-smelling, well nigh a
fetid, compound. The onion, being so
juicy, has Il very large percentage of
water in it's tissues, and this, combin-
ing with the sulphur. forms the
strongly scented and offensive sub
stance called sulphuret of allyle, which

phurct Of allyle mingles more especial
ly with the volatile or aromatic oil of
the onion; it is identified with the
malodorant principle found in asafoe-
tida. which is almost the symbol of
all smells that are nasty. The horse
radish, so much liked with roast beef
for its keen and biting property, and
the ordinary mustard of our tables
both owe their strongly stimulative
properties to this same sulpluret OF
allyle, which gives them heat and acri-
dity, but not an offensive smell, owing
to the different arrangements of the
atoms in their volatile oils.
This brings us to a most curious
fact in nature, that most strangely,
yet most certainly constructs all vege-
table volatile oils in exactly the same
way-composes them all, whether they
are the aromatic essences of cloves,
oranges, lemons, cinnamon, thyme,
rose. verbena, turpentine or onion, of
exactly the same proportions, which
are Sly of carbon to 11a of hydrogen,
and obtaihs all the vast seeming di-
versities that our nostrils detect in
their scent simply by a different ar
rangemen. of the atoms in each vege-
table oil. Oxygen alters some of the
hydro -carbons; sulphur others.-Cham-
