There appears to the New York Com
mercial Advertiser "to be no reason
for the assertion thnt the Cuban insur-
gents have violated the rules OF war In
the reported execution of Colonel Ruiz.
That officer of the enemy was given
every opportunity to avoid fate upon
which he rushed with blind foolhardi-
ness. His correspondence with his
Cuban friend, Colonel Aranguren,
whose reported execution is now de-
MED, carried to him exact knowledge
of the general order condemning t.
death all emissaries bearing the pro-
posal to accept autonomy. When Ruiz
persisted, his friend sent back to him
the order of General Rodriguez, If he
offers autonomy, do your duty, accom-
panied by the warning that if the pro-
posed interview was confined to 9
friendly chat, or to the independence
of C,sba, all would be well; but If not,
for Coos sake do not come Still
Ruiz persisted, and when he met his
friend and pronounced the fatal word
autonomy he condemned himself to
death. There was no way to evade his
execution, else the discipline of the
entire Cuban army would have been
destroyed"

Within the last few years the p

Within the last few years the put
ting up of canned goods has become
one of the most important industries
of the United States. Scattered
throughout this country at the pres
ent time there are not less than 200O
eanneries, representing the enormous
capital of $75, ,0o0.o The industry
is divided into four main branches.
First comes the canning of food prep
arations, such as meats. cereals,
soups and the like, in which branch
some 5000 persons are employed and
capital amounting to $1,000, 600 is
represented. Next comes the canning
of fruits and vegetables. I: this i'm.
lportant branch of the industry not less
than $4,000 persons are employed,
while the capital represented amounts
to 100000 900. This branch of the
industry is carried on mainly in Mary
land and New York. Still another
branch is concerned with the canning
of preserves and pickles. In this
branch of the industry several thou.
sand persons are employed. As to the
capital represented, it closely approx
imates s25, 600, 900. Last comes the
canning of oysters, salmon and other
kinds Of fish, which employs 10,
600 persons, and repre- sents q capita
of Sl3, 900, 900. The hardships occa.
stoned by the late war between the
States greatly stimulated the canning
industry in,tkis country, but without
the least interruption since inst time
the industry has steadily grown into
ats present extraordinary proportions.

No cutter animal Is found In the West
than the coyote. The coyote is to the
plainsman what q fox Is to an Eastern
farmer, only the coyote is more in evil

and then set upon by several other Of

s"About 9 o'clock one night the spas

the kitchen door and howled aggra-
vatingly at the dog, which thereupon {.
set after the coyote full tilt. The coy

corral and around the blacksmith shan

shanty were other coyotes, six or seven Z

ing as he went. The coyotes each took
a farewell nip and fed, leaving sore
dog behind. Since then the dog has
not been so muCn interested as on for
mer occasinns in coyotes. 1t follows
single coyotes vigorously, but the ap-s
pearance of another sends 1t back as
fast as 1t can rum"
The coyote likes badger flesh very
much, but one coyote Is not equal to AZ
badger in q fight: consequently. tho
coyote, when it meets badger, has to
resort to strategem till aid arrives. The
manner in which it does this, according
to the; sportsman's paper, Is interest

"a few weeks ago." the writer says.
"as was riding along I saw coyote
and badger. The coyote seemed to
be playing with the badger. He;would
prance around it, first as II to bite tf
then run off little ways, the badges
following, evidently very angry. When1
the badger. saw me 1t ran into its hole,
while the coyote went off forty or fifty3
yards and lay down, evidently knowing

device was evidently to tease, and SO
keep the badger interested till another
coyote happened along, when the bad

The Apple MaHCot.

The burrows which you see in ap-
Piles are due to the presence OF worm
in the apple, which is the product of
an egg laid very early in the growth of
the apple by the apple maggot. As
the mature insect does not eat the ap-
pie, but only stings it to deposit her
egg beneath the skin, it is not likely
that the maggot can be killed by poi
sonous insecticids. Some success has
been had by using On emulsion which
is applied before the tree is leaved
out. The maggot hatches early in
spring and waits without eating until
her work in reproducing her species
is done. The orchard should be kept
as hog pasture wherever this pest
becomes numerous. There are many
of these pests in the fallen fruit, and
q good lot of hogs will eat this fruit as
fast as it falls to the ground. The in
crease of the pest may thus be pre-
vented if it capnot be e1terminated.-

Raising Fall Calves.

There is q great unwillingness on
the part of most dairymen to allow
calves dropped in the fall to reach ma
turity. It is really the greatest OBJ.
lection to the extension of winter
dairying. That in all cases takes the
55esS COWS, as no one would think OF
keeping poor mixers through the win
Ger, with all the extra trouble that
winter dairying involves. But if all
IT, calves Of these winter cows are
sent to the butcher it must mean a
great deterioration of average dairy
stock. No one should begin winter
dairying unless he has warm barn,
which frost will not enter, in which to
keep his cows, and succulent feed OF
some kind to feed them. These are
just the conditions for successfully
rearing fall farrowed calves.

AGRICULTURAL TOPICS.
Sailing OF Poor Stock.

As winter approaches every farme,

consider what of it will pay best TO,
keeping through until spring. If all
that does not come up to the standard
is sold to the butcher or otherwise dis.
posed of, the money for it and the hay
or grain required for its winter susie.
nance will leave the farmer richer in
the spring than if he fed it. Don't
try to get high prices for the poor
stock. There is less loss in disposing
of it than in keeping it. The farmers
profit, inithese.days, depends more on
the kind. of stock he keeps than on any
other factor.

ADOPTION OF THE EAGLE.
Tortuous Process by Which the Bird
Became Americas Emblem.

That the bald eagle should have sur
yived as the emblem of American SOW
ereignty for 116 years is but Just re
ward to congress for the labors en-
dured in fixing its exact status. 1t re-
CURED several years and five commit
tees to devise a suitable seal for the
government. The final result is in
marked contrast to those submitted
and rejected. Congress was very par
ticular in those days, feature which
has never been entirely obliterated,
even in rush war times.
Soon after the reading of the declar-
alton of independence on July 4, 1776,
before the continental congress, DIR.
Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and John
Adams were named as a committee to
devise a seal for the United States.
The committee, composed, as it was,
of the leading statesmen Of the time
surely could well be expected to pro-
duce something worthy of their talents
and regulations. but they failed miser-
ably. They worked hard on the mat
ter. and on August 10 recommended a
shield in one of whose corners was a
very small and peaceful eagle The
seal was not fayorably considered.
ulSe years idlST lie subject was
again taken up, when, on March 81,
1873, a new committee went to work
This committee labored and brought
forth nothing which their colleagues
would accept. The report was recon-
mitted, and that was the end of it. Two
years afterward a third committee
got to work. The secretary of con-
gress, Charles Thomson, acting as
clerk, secured the help of William
Barton Of Philadelphia. Mr.. Barton
submitted an elaborate design in
which the eagle appears prominently
as mathematical of sovereignty"
Then Secretary Thomson submitted
a design with the rising eagle, with
shield on its breast and the olive
branch and arrows in its talons. This
was liked, but not finally accepted. The
last design, the one adopted, was sub
lnitted by Mr.. Barton. 1t was an
adoption Of the Thomson design, the
rising bird, with outstretched wings
shield on the breast and the olive
branch for the nations friend, with
arrows e. it's foes. This design met
with genral approval and was for
mally adopted on June 20, 1888, si1
years after the declaration of indie:
pendence.

Arizona
The Both day of May has by national
and territorial legislation been set apart
as a public holiday, and consecrated to
the memory of the dead soldiers of the
republic who made a tender of their
lives that the Union might live.
The ranks of the once great volunteer
army are steadily diminishing, and as
the old soldiers are being mustered out
we are admonished not to forget their
deeds of valor, heroism and self-sacrifce.
Now, therefore, 1, Myron H. McCord.
governor of the territory of Arizona, do
hereby request that the people of the ter
ritory close their places of business on
that day and join the surviving members
of the Grand Army of the Republic in
their memorial services, and by such rec
ognition, prompted by gratitude, emulate
that spirit of patriotism and loyalty
with which our people are so generously
inspired.
Done at the capital. this 21st day of
