Within five years Minnesota has de-
veloped an industry whose product last
| year was worth more than 100000.
and which is destined in few more
| years to become one of the mainstays
of the state. This is the canning in
dustry. It has made truly wonderful
| strides. b 4f::s..
Last year the canneries united in
| display in the manufacturers building,
| which was the first one ever held in the
| state. - At that time only. sweet corn
was shown. & This year the exhibit is
much larger, more attractive and more
comprehensive. No less than g ten va
rieties" have been added to. the sweet
corn, these being peas, string beans,
kin, squash and various fruits.

Mimi, and, Big Stone, s. D; These
concerns are experimen ting this year
with new can which is intended to

products stand a while. the contents be-
, come furnished from the tin and the
quality deterioates to some extent.
Moreover, in soldering the cans there
is danger Of acid. dropping into the
is no danger, but it has excited preju-
dice against canned goods among some
people. =: ~ 49,, -. rl... fl.
: Improved Cans. sz-...
The new can is coated on the inside
with lacquer which will prevent the
discoloration of the contents by the
chemical action Of the tin. It is also
provided with q patent top. which is
put on by machinery without the use of
solder, removing that objection. The
patent can has been approved by pure
food authorities and health and food
officials of states and municipalities.
Last year the total output Of all the
canneries in the state was $4,000
cases, and this was sold at an average
price Of $1.10 case. This year the
four plants of the Minnesota Canneries
company will turn out from 10000 to
$4,000 cases a day and will make a
| longer run than last year, while the
score Of other canneries are planning
greatly to enlarge the output.
Next year particular attention will
be given to fruit and it is certain that
within few years Minnesota will be
supplying her neighbors with canned
fruit and vegetables. -

There were made in December and

clared boC-ars. 1867 fines We're inflict-
ed on pcd,llerS Of small wares, III ar
rests of children vagabonds and l13

but public opinion seems TO be against
them, For instance, to take scene

The man promptly threw himself on

that he had done nothing. and appeal

heard of Poor fellow, he has only one

Two memorable granite columns,
known as the columns of st. Mark

and standing in front Of the quay and
landing steps of the TiazEeta have
been associated with the fortunes OF
Venice for many years
At first they lay PROSTATE for a long
time, while no ono would undertake
TO raise them. But a reward offered
by the doge at length induced one
Nicolo Barratioro (Nick the BlackleC.
to offer his services He succeeded
and claimed as his reward tho privilege
of carrying ON between the columns
games of chance. elsewhere prohibited
by law To neutralize this as much as
possible IL was enacted mat all public
executions should take place on the
same spot
One column is surmounted by the
Lion of st. Mark. The other carries
a fine figure of ST. Theodore, the pa
