that farmers are occupied with their work

the limited supply of extras. Eggs were in
good demand, but the offerings were quite

APPLE CROP PROSPECTS.
The following is a summary of the Grunge
Judd Farmer report the apple crop pros
pect:
In no state is there uniform prospect of a
full apple crop. The July condition is ap
parently best in New England parts of Can
ada, Wisconsin and a few other sections of
the Northwest; nowhere is there more gen.
eral complaint Of severe deterioration than
In the heavy apple section Of Central and
Western New York, which is always such
factor in supplying the markets. Should

dictate, it must mean an added outlet for ia
vored apple-growing sections in New Eng
land. the Canadian provinces and the West.
The important orchard districts in the
states Of our Middle West and the South
west do not promise well for good crop of
winter fruit. Reports received up to the
present time from Nebraska subject to mod
ifcation after receiving later returns, point
to fair promise; this is also true Of Wis
consin. where a state official high in au-
thority says the present outlook is for a full
crop, and for three times as much as the

EARLY RREEpING on sHEEp.

AS young lambs bring more in winter AMI
early spring than even they CIR mature sheep
bring at any later age. it is an object TO breed
early, says DR.. Galen Wilson. in Farm and
Fireside. The general time OF breeding sheep
is in the fall: but this brings lambs too late
for best prices. July and August are the
months to mate the sexes Ewes to be Sc
lected are those which in excellent con-
dition. and which have nursed lamb for
month or two. Then let them be kept on
good pasture where there is plenty Of shade
and cool drinking water convenient. Turn
with them strange vigorous ram. But with
all Of these precautions share OF these
ewes will not breed until late. unless they
have previously been accustomed to breed
early 1t is natural for sheep to breed at
a year from the time they are last bred. A
good way to get early breeders Is to grow
them. Keep the eve lambs of this sprins
from breeding until July or August o. next
year. and then there will be little trouble
about it. and enc will have flock Of natural
ly early breeders. Some claim success in
early breeders by feeding grain in summer,
until bred: and others staryp their sheep o
day or two just previous to mating but from
observations / can say neither Is reliable.
The early lamb business Is worthy the atten-
ton of every farmer who keeps sheep, unless
he grows sheep for breeders. One can man
age to get twice as much for two months
lamb as ne can for a lamb or the mature
sheep for mutton any time after the age OF
two Notwithstanding Wisconsin

OTHER ENS|GNS HO|STED

There has been a good deal of hoist
ing and lowering of various flags over
the Hawaiian Islands. On February
21st. 1894, Kamehameha and his chiefs
put the Islands under the protection
of Great Britain, and on the 25th of
that month Vancouver sent Lieuten-
ant Paget ashore who hoisted the
British flag and took possession in
the name of King George III. A sa-
lutte was fired and Alexander's history
says "the natives shouted 'Kanaka no
Beritane' eve are men of Britain.)
This cession was not ratified.
In 1915 the Russians. landed at Hon.
olulu. built a block house and raised
the Russian flag. They also built a
fort, the remains of which are still to
be seen at Waimea, Kauai, and hoist
ed their flag there; but they retired
the next year and the flag came down
in 1917.
In February Of 1S43 Lord George
Paulet in the Carysfort came to the
Islands and made peremptory de-
mands about the Charlton property,
and certain legal matters and COM
plants of British subjects. Finally
the demands became so large that the
King ceded the Islands temporarily to
Great Britain. Alexander thus de-
scribes the scene:
At 3 o'clock p. m, February 25th,
the king standing on the ramparts
of the fort, read brief and eloquent
address to his people.
The words of the King as translate
ed were; "Where are you, chiefs,
people and commons from my ances-
tors, and people from foreign landsl
Hear We! | make known to you that
| am in perpleXity by reason of diff
culties into which | have been brought
without cause; therefore | have given
away the life of our land, hear ye!
But my rule over you. my people,
and your privileges will continue, for
| have hope that the life of the land
will be restored when my conduct
shall be justified"
The act of cession was then public
ly read, and a proclamation by Lord
Paulet, after which the Hawaiian flag
was lowered by natives. The British
colors were then hoisted over the fort
by lieutenant from the "Carysfort,"
and saluted by the ship and the fort.
At the same time the flag over the
British Consulate was struck. 1t
chanced that the day was the forty
ninth anniversary of Kamehameha's
cession to Vancouver.
On July 26 of the same year, the
Dublin, Rear Admiral Thomas ar
rived. Alexander continues:
Hardly had the Dublin come to an

States as was made in 1898. But
though the monarchy was not then
shelved, any one with spark of po-
litical sagacity must have seen that
the end was not far off, and the ranks
of the anneXationists began silently
to draw together and prepare for the
inevitable.
The crash came in 1898 when the
eX-Queen attempted to override the
constitution of 1887. There was no
sentimental hesitation then. The
monarchy fell, never to rise again.
The 1895 attempted uprising was but
a feeble effort, throttled in its birth,
and the cause of annexation went
steadily and firmly on till it reached
its final consummation today.
1t is almost invidious to mention
names in connection with the move
ment. But there are a few which
tower above all others in the cause
here. DR.. John S. McGrew is the ver-
table father of the annexation move
ment in its present form. Lorrin A.
Thurston, F. NJ. Hatch and w. A. Kin
ney have labored long and hard for
the cause in the United States. j. b..

the mercantile community. And then

chor before the admiral in the most
courteous terms solicited a personal
interview with the king, and in few
hours it became known that he had
come to restore the independence of
the Islands. On the following day
the terms of restoration were agreed
upon, and arrangements were made
for the ceremonies to take place on
Monday the 31st.
4 proclamation was issued by Adj
miral Thomas in which he declared in
the name of his sovereign that he did
not accept of the provisional cession
of the Hawaiian Islands, and that
Her Majesty sincerely desires King
Kamehameha Ill to be treated as an
independent sovereign, leaving the adj
ministration of justice in his own
hands" A convention of ten articles
was signed by the king and Admiral
Thomas, which stringently guarded
British interests, although it fully
recognized the kings rights.
The 31st of July, a day memorable
in Hawaiian history, was clear and
cloudless. An open space on the
plain east of the town, since called
Thomas Square," had been selected
for the ceremonies of the day, two
pavilions having been erected and q
| flag staff planted. Thither poured the
entire population of Honolulu to wit
ness the restoration of the flag. At
| 10 o'clock a. m, the marines of the
Dublin" "Carysfort" and Hazard"
being drawn up in line, with a bate
ry of field pieces on their right, the
king, escorted by his own troops, ar
rived on the ground. As the Hawaii
an royal standard was hoisted a sa-
lutte of twenty-one guns was fired by
the field battery, after which the ma
tional colors were raised over the
fort and on Punchbowl hill, and sa-
luted by both forts and the four men
of war in port, followed by loud and
long cheering from the assembled
multitude. After the saluting, vari-
GUS evolutions were performed by
the marines, after which the king
was escorted to his residence, where
the natives belonging to the late
Queens Regiment" came before him
to sue for pardon, and to swear alle-
glance to their rightful sovereign.
At l o'clock p. m. the king attend
ed a Thanksgiving service in the Ka-
waiahao church, where he addressed
the people, informing them that as he
hoped, "the life of the land" had been
restored, using the words which have
since been adopted as the national
motto, Qua mau Ike ca o ka alma ka
pono"-the life of the land is perpet-
uated by Righteousness.
