CUBAN RECIPROCITY.

The presidents message on reciproc- fly with Cuba, while lacking in the dignity expected of such state papers, Is nevertheless commendable as timely appeal to the representatives of the peo- pie in congress to deal justly with Cuba. Certainly, if we were justified m entering upon a costly war to fiber ate the people of Cuba from oppres. sion, then the moral obligation resting upon us as q nation to continue to give aid to the struggling young republic until Der future stability IS fairly as aured, is doubly binding.
 There are also other reasons-of jus tee and business proprlety - which appeal for reciprocity with Cuba. We have secured concessions from Cuba which give us exceptional trade advan- tngcs over other countries dealing with her, and it is certainly nothing more 'haa right that we should grant to Cuba equal commercial advantages. Finally, from bHsiness standpoint, it is plain that we have a profit to make out of reciprocity ourselves, for Cuba's pros- perity would mean large increase in our trade.
 What should be done is to not only reduce the tariff on Cuban products but strike out the differential on refined sugar, as provided by the house bill, which would be direct blow at the su. gar trust aud probably cheapen the cost of sugar to the people and ii late adyices from Washington can be relied upon, such a compromise measure is A strong possibility.

The Roll wPeHf1-

One of the strongest Incentives to
diversiiication of crops in the cotton
belt is the boil weevil, says an cx-
change. That it will always be pest
tneradicable by human effort is the
opinion of our best entomologists. That
1t may be rendered comparatively
harmless by persistent and intelligent
effort is also the opinion of experts,
but this effort will cost something and
proportionately reduce the profits Of
cotton growing. This. however, may
be overcome by smaller areas, better
cultivation and heavier yields per acre.

Crane. tho only 1nh.bltnnt..


In Minnesota there is picturesque
island that is uninhabited by man and
given up to the cranes. When the In
dians held full sway these birds decid-
ed upon this spot as summer resort.
AS time went on and no white man
had the temerity to disturb them they
became sole owners. until now this
island is pointed out froll passing
boats as one Of the curiosities of the
country.
1t is estimated that 5000 cranes
make there home there in the summer
season, and they can be seen wading
out In the water, ducking their long
necks, and heard emitting a peculiar
squawk to warn off intruders.
The nests are made of very large
sticks and are often the size OF a
bushel basket. They are usually built
on some substantial tree. In the years
that have passed since this region was
first settled by white men only one or
two attempts have been made to land
on the island, and these have resulted
disastrously.
