Book Description
Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, Vol. 105: January to June, 1873 The two largest specimens, dredged in 28 fathoms, east of Grand Menan, by the writer, measured 5 inches across the disk and tentacles, but their bodies were mutilated. Entire ones of much smaller size were dredged by Dr. Packard and Ir. Cooke in 110 and 150 fathoms, soft mud, near St. George's Bank. The largest of these was 8 inches long, and like other species of the genus, inhabited a thick, tough, felt-like, muddy tube.

Book Description
Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, Vol. 27: January, 1835 Notwithstanding the great diversity of soils, (according to locali ties, ) which is observable on the Eastern shore Of Maryland, it would be easy to shew, that, excluding the vegetable and animal matter, contained in them, they may all be arranged under two classes; namely, those containing a predominance of silicious ingredients, and such as contain a predominance of argillaceous ingredients; in other words, sandy soils, and clayey soils. It is presumed that the great characteristic of the soil, in this portion of the territory of Maryland, is an absence, or deficiency of calcareous ingredients.

At three of these stations, viz: Cleveland, Duluth and Os wego, the northerly wind was probably the result of the cooler air of the Lakes moving toward the warmer land. Three of the stations, viz: Fort Sully, Fort Garry and Pembina, were situated on the north side of the area which was most heated; and two other stations, viz: Eastport and Mt. Washington were on the extreme eastern border of the heated area. At Mobile the velocity of the wind was only one mile per hour; at Norfolk and Yankton it was four miles; and at Santa Fe five miles per hour.

The velocity of the wind in the west quadrant gen eral y exceeds the velocity in the east quadrant by 22 per cent. When the velocity in the east quadrant is equal to that in the west quadrant, the velocity of the storm's progress is seven miles per hour greater than the mean; but when the velocit of the wind in the west quadrant exceeds that in the east qua rant by 44 per cent, the velocity of the storm's progress is seven miles per hour less than the mean.
