One of the greatest draw-backs to this place Is that the people will not patronize home Industries. Wo all pretend lo he glad to see new enterprises started ; we say we want capital to seek an investment here, but w hat do we do toward helping these things along-. Lauron? luis a first class iron foundry, but when you want a piece of machinery, un less your need is so urgent you can- ! notjwait, you send 'away [to some i otherplace to get it when tho same i article could be made at home for the same or less money. Wo have a good wagon factory, but you would prefer to get one made eist;where. Wo have two printing establishments at lids place, prepared to do all kinds ol work, from a rough poster to the finest mcrchantllo printing. These oftltcs do as good work as you get at other places and in nearly every instance at a lower price, conn ting freight, but you would rather help build other towns. With one hun dred other things it is the same. No town was over built up and became prosperous where thin spir it prevailed to any extent. This is a you tickle-me-I-tickle-you work, nnd wo cannot [reasonably expect sensible men to put money In en terprises where tho people all pull against themselves and cut one an other's throats. If a home industry gives you tho same advantage always give lt preference. Every undertaking that is prosperous, bas a tendency to make others also prosperous and if you work against others, it will have a chilling effect on your own business. Educational itv FRANK EVANS. Jtou Inc. In vain we chafe and fret at rou tine, and long for any other work than that in which weare engag ed. Routine regulates every thing that is capable of being regulated in this lower world of ours. Life itself is routine, to break which means illness nnd death. We must sleep so much, we must oat so much, ve must take so much exercise in twenty four hours to keep ourselves in good bodily condition. We have a certain amount of studying to do and a limited time for doing it. The more ingeniously contrived is this routine, and the more exact our nttcdanco on it, tho more wo can accomplish with it, so that in addition to performing all necessa ry tasks, we may enjoy lesli re to tho best ot our fancies. There ls the greatest difference among la bors tts to adjusting ono task to an other, so that the least number pos sible of independent movements will Bufllce to accomplish the desir ed result. The trains may bo made to ?ave the bands, tho feet, thc muscels, in a marvelous degree, but when this is done the program me ls all thought and settled In ad vance, and nothing remains but to work up to it This habit once forine?l, work may bc in a mechan ical way and the mind be left free to its own trains of thought. Routine, to the school teachers ls n nocossity, without it disorder, mis rule, (dntos reign. Peace, comfort,security, succ?s-, find no place in a disorderly insti tution. The two golden rules for tho preceptor are "A place for every thing, and everything in its place." "A time for everything, and every thing in Its time." Let tho routine bo sot in these twogroovosand il will runas'smotli ly as cars on the track, and allow tho speed tobe increased almost in .dofinatoly. Thc difficulty with most people is not in marking out a rou tine but In adhering to it when it ls once marked out, no matter weth er ono "feels like it" or not. Every one should,have originality suffic ient to plan bis own manner of worklng.lt isn't easy hy "any means to break one's self into a relentless routine, and plod on and on like a plough horse, but the work of the world is done by routine. The soon er, therefore, wo break ourselves to harness, tho better for our lifes work. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. Hy Otu- Kojpilor Correspondent. Washington May 1st 1887. This month Thc National Capi tol will soe more of the pomp and circumstances of war limn over be fore, lt is probable too that tho laigcst crowed of visitors that ever assemble in this city will come to Witness the most novel event that will take plnco here during the presont year. The Na tional Dril w ill commence on tho 28rd of May and close on tho 30th of that month, Decoration Day, with a grund combination parado upon Die broad, asphalt streets of soldiers from everywhere. The North, South. East ami West, L?ko regions and Gulf sections will t>? represented by their contlgehtof sightseers as well a? their citizen soldiery who will compote for the prizes. May finds Washington In its glory, fresh verdure, balmy air und flowers, and military displays ure always popular. Tho flare of brass band?, tlu> phrlll piping fifes, tho koroit: voice? of the bugles the ! rattling drums, tho burnished arm?, i i rillla ?t uniforms, -prancing *lccds-, I white city often*.*, and flynig ban ner s always appeal to tho lenses and martial spirit of thc people Tilt grounds for the camp are tho monument grounds lying around tho Washington Monument; und the drill ground Is that lovel ellip se lying just south of tho White House, known ns tho White Lot, This level plain is one half mlle in circumference und stands will be erecto I around it on which to seat tho spectators. Here will daily he held the contest to prove tho excel lence of the cavalry infantry, artil lery and Zouave tactics. ' Every evening (luring drill week there will bo a grand brigade dress parade and on Governor's day and Memo rial day the entire rrmy corps from Camp George Washington will pa rado through the streets of the city. Each evening also tho grounds will be illuminated for promenade con certs, and other attractions which ure being prepared for the publie. Hosnies tho $20,000 to bc distribu ted In cash prizes, there will be gold silver and bronze medals, special medal's and plate trophies nnd stands of colors. Some of the coin panics which aro entered for the drill have said in ad vaneo that they have no expectation of winning prizes, but that they ure coming; simply for the recreation nnd pleas ure of the trip. Thirty-six states are already represented in the ap plications made for entry, and yes terday ono was received at tuc Drill headquarters from Dakota. On? very important feature of tho affairs is tho provision for hoard I and shelter for the immense crowd ? of visitors that will come. Wash I ington is u city of hotels and board ing houses. lt was not crowded I during the Cleveland inauguration, although it was estimated that there were then two hundred thou sand strangers in tho city. Washington offers many ludtlCO I monts for a week's visit besides the ! National Drill. lt ii- by far the most beautiful as well as tho m ist Interesting city in the Union, and Arlington Bladensburg, Mount Vernon, Harpers ferry and many others historic spots are close hy A Voyage Across tliD Atlant ie A young English w ho visited nt j this pince a few weeks ago has re turned to his home in Liverpool i and has given tho following < x ; tracts from his diary during tho j voyage; ! Thursday, March ill.-Engaged In stateroom on tho Inman Lino Steamer "City of Chester" to sail ?Saturday, April 2nd, from Now I York, l cabled to Um Liverpool : office and wrote home to this effect, i Friday, April 1st.-Don't forget I tho day. During thc morning and ! part of the afternoon I spent in say ing Good-bye to ns many ol* my friends as time would allow. 1 ; packed my detached villa up and I started of at ('?:''<) for the New York, ! Philadelphia & Norf.dk Railroad 'Co's Wharf to take, or rat-hcrto be by He ir steamer over thc Chcs I peake Hay lo Cape Charles. ?V In consequence of a snow storm I which was raging at tin? time, the j steamer was behind schedule limo j exactly one hour in reaching Nor j folk and only left nt fi p. m., making j Portsmouth 8-15, old Point Com fort ot 0:30 and Cape Charles nt ?12.00. - I When wo got half-way over the I Bay, I bespoke n berth In the Pull ; man sleeper and retired to bed nt 11p.m. On reaching Cape Chnr ; les the ears were transferred to tho I. nil road, After sleeping fairly, I got up well rested at 7 a. m. I nev ? .-dept so well Oil the ears before and can only account for it by one of two ways, either 1 am getting ac customed to tho motion of tho curs or else I was very tired. Saturday, April 2nd.-Snow ls lying pretty Ulick on the ground. '< Wo arrived in Phill d dphin at 7:3ii land staved there 'Ju minutes at I breakfast. Left Philadelphia two and a half hours behind time and arrived In Jersey City at 10-30. i Immediately on arrival I put my j baggage on board the steamer and J made il flying visit lo New York City lo see my friend Mr. Phillips niid returned with him to Jersey City io minutes to sailing time. Steamor|storted promptly on time. It i M still snowing very heavy and you can't see halfway over the North Uiver. Lunch was served nt 1-30 and I j made a hearty meal. Tho Pilot i took bis departure nt L'-oX n short j distance after passing Sandy Hook. I After crossing the bar, the sen com j menced to rise, nnd os a natural ; result I commenced and un com I foi'tablo feeling in my interior, which increased so much that by j dinner time I could eat a very Ismail dinner and could only retain j that for a very short time. I re tired to bed at '.? 1?. m. nnd slept well. .Sunday, April 3rd.-I got up nt 0 0. ni. to lind Hint the.snow storm I had cleared off, hut tin: .steamer was pitching and rolling something more than pleased me. At break fast my appearance was very brief and bad lo make a sudden exit and took tho rest of my meals for that day on deck, after each one I wn* sick, in consequence T did md feel In a mood devot ional enough to attend service in the saloon this Sabbath, At 8.30n.m. I returned tomylittlo bed, tired of fighting against the Inner-man, At noon to-day wo have steamed uno miles from Now York. Thc wind is still behind us and helps us ou a wee bil. Monday, April Ith.-On jumping out ol my btinic this mornlhg I fine a glorious change bas taken pince. Tho .sea is considerably calmer and tho sun ls shining bright and warm, but above these charms, one that strikes more home tome is my Interiors are nt pence again with me, and tempt me to partake of a good breakfast. After this rash net, I have to walk up nnd down the deck for so long a time lill I considered my brenkrast well digested. Shortly after breakfast we hove up close to a Philadelphia Steamer bound West nnd by signals risked If sh? had pas ?od any ice liorgH, and lire right gin.! to receive "No" for nu answer. She was plunging and toiling very heavily against wind and water. Towards evening the wind died out and we took in all sail, i felt much satis tied with myself having sto . od and held on to no less than three meals and those very square ones. Wc have only 21 patsc-iq.?-s (sa loon) on board, of whom Gare ladies and ll) gents and 0 children. For the flrst time in my voyages 1 httvo the joy of a stateroom, a whole stateroom, to myself. Wo have to to-day steam eil 327 miles. Tuesday, April ?tb,-When I arose 1 found that the sun was up and shining in all its glory, a fair wind is blowing from the Scuth ami weather prophets tm board are prophesying fair weath er. Since noon yesterday we have added :!:17 miles to our record. Nothing-of Importance has happen ed so far ns we know to-day. The prophets are correct, for the weath er still continues good ami all on board have recovered from their recent shaking up. "Wednesday, April nib.-Weath er continues lin;? an I wind favor able; tho sea is just tts smoothe as a biko and if you hadn't como four days from port you wouldn t hard ly bclievo yourself lo bo so far (rom shore. After lunch we par sed within haifa mile ol' a barque eastward bound like ourselves, and as she hud every stitch of canvas spread, she? looked as pretty as a picture against the brigid sun. Tn day we have put New York 389 miles away from us, (this is our biggest days work throughout the entire voyage.) As (?vening drew on a swell came on which made tho ship roll rather more than was pleasant. It is one week to-day ..-ince I arrived lu Norfolk from my visit to Laurens. Thursday, April 7th.- Dull, cloudy day. Not a glimpse of the sun lo be caught all (lay, luckily Ute rain holds oil' well. Our run to day ix 328 miles which makes us 1 ?. :?7 miles out from New York. This bring i us exactly lo mir turn ing point. YYe have topped the (watery) bill and are now running down on tho I'.nglish const and we are all making calculations or rather guesses tis to w hen we sholl set foot on to the Liverpool stage. My guess is Tuesday tit I p. m. Friday, April 8lh.-Just one week to-day since 1 left Norfolk. A fair breeze has sprung up in the Hast, which ls rather against us making good time. Good Friday, and hot X buns are the first and on ly reminders of the day we have on hoard. All else goes the same and every one does tie) same as on oth er days. The distance which we have to-day put behind us is only :119 miles. Saturday, April '.dh.-Rad luck to it; the easterly wind bas increas ed to a semi-gale mid the steamer is shipping big seas f..re and aft. In consequence, wc have to keep on the sheltered side. The smoke room being on the tipper deck and ns near mid-ships ns possible, you feel less motion, so ibis ?s my fa vorite resort. 292 miles is nil the headway we have made to-day. We have been tit sea one weeli now. In the afternoon tin? gale Increas ed considerably and a great quant i ty of water has fem.ie over on the upper deck anti the spray has turn ed our black smokestacks white with salt. While we were at din ner a sailor was caught by a wave ami knocked down. Ile was picked up insensible lifter being banged about. Tin- ship's doctor says he is suffering from congestion of the brain and doubts whether Jio w ill recover from bi- injurie i fell quito well to-day until,cu rious to relate, when 1 bad been In bed a very hort while 1 turned I q'lile sick. This lasted but for a moment and as I felt no signs ol'a rclupst l attributed it t<> excessive smoking, (which on account of the Inclemency of tho woathct I per haps indulgod ia rather freely) lather than 'mttl-de-tm ?\ April I'll), linster Sunday.-1 arose feeling- well and ale a goot! breakfast. The gale has modera ted smd the sea ls not running so high. At 10-30 til vino servlco was held in the saloon. Captain Lewis was Pasto) or rector and Frank So per wan organist or 1 should say pianist. Nearly all the saloon passengers, a good many interme di?te and steerage, some of the of ficers nnd sailors composed the con gregation. At lunch to-day wc have oysters on the half-shell, and very pale oysters tie y arc. in consequence of the storm last night, we have only made261 miles to-day, w li (di will now Upset my calculation timi my correction now i thal we shall land at 10 p. in? on Tuesday. Monday, April lill).- Nothing of interest occured to-day till !> p m, when WO sighted the fir-t light house on the Irish Const and short ly oftcj changed signals with Brow Head t? report our arrival. Islay ed upon tho deck till after mid night. We passed through an in numerable fleet ( f li bing boats ?ind other small era ft. At noon to-day we bad run 30fl miles and ere on ly 177 miles from tho Fostnet light house, Tuesday, April 12th.-We arriv ed nt Queenstown at 3 a un Asl was in bed nt Ibis lime l did not see the harbor, but awoke w lien tho en gines stopped. After a short slay over of about ten minutes we pro ceeded to Liverpool, When I got up at H p m wo were again out of night of land. At Queenstown we took on three saloon passengers, twoofwhom f was well acquainted with. I'p the channel WO mad" u fair t rip and again made tho land at 2-30 pm this time on Hie Anglesea const, which is extremely rugged and picturesque, At7-4G wo drop ped anchor at the P.ar light ship and proceeded with all our baggage from thereto tho landing stage ii? a tugboat. Wo touched the stage at 9-lo, or j-of an hour 'doner than my guess on Saturday. How goos that for a guess?

Hut of I (hose more valuable ingredients of manures, viz: nitrogen phosphoric acid and potash, none of the last two arc go'ten from tho air, and it is not certain Hint any of the lirst (nitrogen-) is derived from that source. How, then, does a groth ol plants ?inprove tho soil, as it un questionably does? In two ways: First Plants that are deon rooted like clover, gather valuable sub stance.* doop below the surface, from the subsoil, distribute thom through (heir stems and leaves, and when they die and their remains are mix ed with the soil proper, succeeding vegetation eau readily get and ap propriate them. Without ( heating or Importing plant food lucy redis tribute it thrungli the so 1 and place it in convelent condition.? for other plant. Hut, secondly they, render avail aide substances which were locked up in the soi! ami beyond tho reach of many plants, in every lair ara bic soil t here ls, for instance, enough nitrogen to meet tho demand- of crops for a hundred or more years. To the depth of OilC foot there ill the soil ufa ? acre from six to twelve thousand pounds of nitrogen. Hut, as wo said, it ls looked up. Analy sis will hiing it to light, but plants generally cannot get lt out ut" its combinations. Now, clover and peas and kindred plants have an unusual rout power; a power of acting on the insolublo organic compounds of tho soil containing nitrogen, and of appropriating sahl nitrogen to their own use. Their remains convey it to other plants in a form which they can approprl ate; that ls, they are purveyors of nitrogen. 1? R 0 ll I B I T 10 S . UV C. Ii. ItK li c Li: A it TIM: TIIACK.

"The liquor mon nt Mi. Brydgcs, Ont., have created n reign of terror by desperate tight. Advocates of the temp?rance net have lu en fired ini on." Such Incidents arc common.
