We learn from reliable sources that
tho Board of Directors of tho N. &, W.
B. It. Tt. have unanimously approved
of tho location of their road, mado up

there tiro other claims sot up to a por

no traco of any survey or pretenso of

We earnestly hope that our sugges

but it is very desirablo that tho Clul3

It is tt fact not as generally known as
it should bo, that the onion Is rcmarka
bio for its nutritious tjualitie?. Accord
ing to analysis, tho dried onion root
contains from 25 to !10 per cent, of
gluten. In this respect it ranks with
tho nutritious pea, Tho onion Is to tho
Spaniard and Portugueso what cheeso
is to tho English laborer; it helps to sus
tain his strength, and adds largely to
tho nourishment which his simplo meal
suggests. If onions wero moro largely
used In this country, thoro ii littlo
doubt that the goncral health of our
rural population would bo greatly
promoted. Tho only reason why thoy

au articlo of general consumption In

known as tho better clashes, is becauso
of tho strong odor emitted by them

Very few people are good letter wri
