more attention till the cutting. When

canef1eld in it's maturity, shining like
gold under the torrid sun, and gently
undulating in the breeze, is a picture
to live in memory. Sugar cane, unlike
most tropical products, yields only one
crop a year.
Between the time when enough of it
is ripe to warrant getting up steam in
the grinding mill and the season when
rain and heat spoil its quality all the
sugar Of the year must be made. In
Louisiana, the grinding season lasts
only eight weeks; in Cuba 1t continues
four months. 1t is always a very busy
time, relays of hands working night
and day; and this year, with war en-
hand, there is even greater haste and
industry than ever, for the mills may
be burned down any day. The juice,
pressed out by machinery, leaves the
stalks dry as finder, so that they serve
well for fuel. The crude sugar, when
thoroughly dried in the tanks, is put

The cost of an English jute bag is nine
cents; but the duty thereon, unless 1t

price to Cubans is twenty cents. So
the thrifty mother country gets the
job of making the bags, and supplies
them to her colonies at twice their

I happened to remark that the spring
chickens which we were eating were
very fine. 'They ought to be fine" re-
piled the colonel, 'for I raised them
myself on my farm here" After the
lunch was over the colonel took me out
to show me his farm. It was the roof
of his house. We went upstairs and
there found two large coops filled with
chickens. turkeys and pigeons. On
other roofs all about us were other
coops, and the cackling Of the hens
all around showed that a large part of
the eggs eaten in Callao must be laid
on the roofs.
