T. Crane, president of the Crane Co., Chicago, recently made an investigation in regard to the value of an academic education for young men who have to earn their own living and who expect to pursue a com- mercial life. In this connection he sent out letters of inquiry to a large number of prominent business men throughout the country, as well as college presidents and graduates, and has published the results of this investigation in pamphlet form for private distribution. Capt. Geo. E. Dailey, who for the past six or seven years has sold groceries and meats for Miller Bros. at Toledo, will this season sell goods tor Tidtke Bros. at the same port. STEEL PROPELLER WHEELS. It is safe to say that the year 1901 will show a larger number of steel propeller wheels having been made up than the total for any two previous years, the Marine Iron Works (Station A, Chicago) alone having more than doubled any previous year's sales on these steel wheels, with three months yet to hear from. The composition being an open hearth homo- geneous steel, is exceedingly tough and ductile. The sizes range from 30 in. diameter up to 5 ft. The higher first cost when compared with the cast iron wheels is very quickly earned, especially where boats are oper- ating at times on somewhat shallow water. ; 8 Naphtha Launch Wanted.
