Coon, the interpreter. Half King
was a Huron Chief of Sandusky,
Ohio. "Dayenty" or Half King
was at Detroit as early as 1779 and
was present as the council of April
"a, 1888. S. Girty was the cele-
brated renegade. William Arundel
was at Lower Sandusky in July, 1779,
and assisted at the council between
the Wyandots and Delawares. In
1781-1782 Mr.. Arundel was still at
Sandusky and aided the Moravian
Missionaries on their journey to De-
troit.

SHIFTING SANDS

Shifty and evasive as usual the
Republican runs true to form, and
says he wrote no letter objecting to
the appointment of Mr.. Kenyon or
any one else,
In short he puts his own construc-
tions on the object of the letter. How
ever skillfully the letter may have
been written to attack and yet per-
nit a denial of its purpose, we SIM
ply want him to publish copy of the
letter he wrote to Columbus to whom
ever it might be, discussing or COM
menting on the political situation
here and let the people judge of its
purpose.
Don't say you didn't write letter
with this thought or the other pur-
pose, but did you write a letter to
Columbus shortly after the telegram
was sent and which concerned Fulton
County politics. There are a good
many that have seen it and lot more
know it to be fact. COME CLEAN.

SELLING" YOUR TOWN

Nowadays before a salesman is
placed on the road by any of our
larger concerns they are given
course in salesmanship. They are
first made acquainted with the arti-
Gle they are to sell, they are given its
talking points, or made to see its
worth and value to the consumer, and
then they are allotted their. territory.
Selling a town is pretty much Nike
selling goods. You must know first
of all the advantages of your town,
you must be able to tell the outside
world what it has in the way Of ad-
vantages and then you must dwell
on these talking points. Your ter
ritory is large, for any place in the
world you go you can spend a few
minutes selling" your town which
means nothing else but boosting it..
Wauseon citizens should learn the
great advantage to be derived from
being able to point out the manifold
advantages of residence here, OF
telling others exactly why they pre-
fer to live here to having a home any
where else. The man who can talk
up his town, and who does talk up his
town is always admired, no matter
in what part. of the country he may
be or in what company he is thrown
Hometown pride is the first indi.
cation of good citizenship, and people
who hear you reciting the merits Of
the place in which you live naturally
take it that all the other citizens are
doing the same thing, and that it is {
good place in which to live or il
which to do business. Start out nov
to "sell" your town, wherever you go
Learn its advantages, learn to tel
about them in an interesting waytan'
edge right in at every opportunit,
and tell about those advantages.

The LAKE ERIE REGION
DURING THE REVOLUTION

In the early commerce of the Great
Lakes, Erie was an important factor.
The route from the Sandusky region
to the Detroit straits shows up dur
ing the Revolutionary period very
prominently in the commercial his
tory of America. Some light on this
subject is found in much original cor
respondence available in the Burton
Historical Collections of Detroit, a
glimpse of which is here given.
Letter from William Arundel to

Sandusky, 9th April, 1882
Sir:
You will please receive the two
packs as mentioned-I could not send
the two boats in at prest as we are

nor will not be here till the latter
end next month-we thought there
will be a quantity-the reason it is
not here is the roads was impractible
this winter and the woods all burnt
in the fall so there was no food for
the horses-The blankets YOU sent
out were mostly damaged therefore
must be sold per first opportunity
them that are not merchantable.
You please send US about 80 lbs.

Be so good as send the boat off
Immediately as soon as them things

they can be sent by the boat, as well
as LeVellie who l believe will come

PROFITABLE YEAR

The summer just past broke the
heat record of half century. Ac-
cording to the weather-Wise this is a
as. While this outlook does not fur
nis9 joy to the average Fulton
County citizen, it holds out pleasant
to the trapper. Cold
weather makes luxuriant coats on
fur-bearing animals and it also gives
great boost to the fashion of wear
ing fur garments. Old-time trap
pers are, therefore, laying their plans
for the season.
Last season was a hard one for
for what they believe will be a big
trappers and the fur industry in gen.
eral. Owing to the warm weather
and the unsettled condition of the
fur market comparatively little
trapping was done. This has brot
the fur dealers up to the present
season with a very low stock of raw
furs on hand, and these same fur
get back in the game with vim anc
gigor. Trappers can look forward
therefore to good prices for their
pelts.
The vogue for fur garments and
fur-trimmed attire is one of the de.
velopments of recent years. While
furs have always been worn to z
moderate extent, they literally tool
fashion by storm a few seasons ago
This lde to some Enthusiastically higl
prices-supply simply could not keel
pace with the demand. These prices
of course, had to come down aftel
their extraordinary flight, and thi
they did in 1920, putting the fu.
market in a turmoil for the time be
ing. Now the market is back on d;
steady footing, and the future look
fine for the trapper.

NORMAL WINTER WILL
FIX CORN EAR WORMS

Corn ear worms, abundant this fall,
are not likely to be had next year,
says T. H. Parks, extension entomolo-
gist of the Ohio State University.
The pests natural home is farther
south where it feeds mainly on cot
ton, but the mild winter of 1920 en-
abled some of the insects to live over
and do damage in Ohio.
Many farmers have, mistaken this
worm for the European Corn Borer,
and have sounded false alarms. The
borer, however, is only about three
quarters of an inch long; the ear
worm is almost twice that size. An
other distinguishing feature, = says
Professor Parks, is that the worm
eats inward on the ear, while the
European borer gnaws outward from
the center. So far, true corn borers
have been found only in counties bor-
dering Lake Erie.

LESSON ENOUGH

Hudson Maxim told an Atlantic
City audience that merchant marine
was as necessary to us in time of
peace as a navy is in time of war, and
he was right. Trade rivalry calls
for trade boats, if we are to succeed;
and trade boats are mighty helpful
to a navy if we should be called upon
to uphold our rights. We have had
lesson enough in both phases of the
matter to warn us against the idea
of surrendering the sea to foreign
competitors.

seek ALFALFA STRAIN
TO RESIST LEAF SPOT

AS an aid to Ohio alfalfa growers
the Ohio Experiment Station, Wooster
is working on the development of a
strain resistant to leaf spot.
Leaf spot causes a yellowing of
the alfalfa leaves; this results in
small plants of low vitality. To
secure strains resistant to this di-
sease officials of the Station test
many thousand alfalfa seeds in sep
arate plots.
Plants that prove to be resistant
are propagated until seed is obtained,

CONCRETE ROADS
NEARLY FINISHED

The concrete road west of town
that is known as the Bryan-Toldeo
roads and is one of the main market
roads through Fulton County will, if
weather permits, be finished this week
and will be opened for traffic by the
first of November.
The contractors on this road are
Lewis and Copeland of Lima, Ohio,
who are living up to their agreement
and will finish the road 30 days be-
fore their allotted time expires.
These same contractors built the
East Chestnut Street pavement and it
IS one of the best streets in Wauseon.
The road they are now completing
will be just as good if not. better and
according to the County Surveyor
every farmer along this road feels
that the right kind of road mas been
built. The first cost is large but when
you stop to think of the maintenance
of the road it doesn't cost near as
much as macadam. 1t is almost out
of the question to build gravel as
there is but very little gravel in Full
ton County, hardly enough to repair
the ones we now have.
Too many of the stone or nacadam
roads go to pieces within a year after
they are built unless they are built
a great deal heavier than thew have
been and when it comes to doing that
it would cost nearly as much as con-
crete.
The short piece of concrete road
that is being built by LaBoetteaux
and Hayes of Toledo just west of
Delta was finished Wednesday and
will be opened by the 1st of Nov.
The contractors finished this piece of
road several weeks before the time
expired.
This is another piece of road on the
Main Market Highway that the state
gives aid. Concrete was decided to
be the best and would last the longest
with but very little upkeep. We are
fortunate to have these good roads
in this county. Wherever they have
built concrete in other counties they
have been satisfied and feel they have
saved money in the long run.

Time is the test of truth. And Doan's

backache, or annoying urinary ills can
remain unconvinced by this twice-told
testimony.
Imly S. Abbott, 216 Washington St. ,
Milford, says: being on my feet con-
aiderably and having weak kidneys be-
sides resulted in attacks of backache
which gave me a great deal of bother.
I was told of Doan's Kidney Pills and
used them. AS a reward, was given
entire relief of the symptoms. Other
members of the family have found Doan' S
Just as beneficial as 1 have" (State-
ment given March 6, 1879.
On March IL, 1921, Mr.. Abbott added

cure from the trouble as do not have
kidney complaint now. I am glad to
recommend Doan's to others so they
may profit by my experience. !"
