HAWAIIAN AFFAIRS. PnddMt Cleveland Freely DIkomm the Situation — Why the Philadelphia Wes Bent Oat—Her Commander to f*h« no Fart in any Revolutionary C|*ri*lnc. hat to Act Only for the Protection of Cucuiupromised American Citizen*. Washington. Jan. 21.—President Cleveland made the following state- , ment last evening, with respect of the Hawaiian question, which he seemed entirely willing to discuss: * ‘No information has been received which indicates that anything will happen in Hawaii making the presence of one of our naval vessels necessary, unless we are prepared to enter upon s a policy and course of conduct ▼iolative of every rule of international! law and utterly unjustifiable. All who take "any interest in the question should keep in view the fact that Hawaii iis entirely independent?of us and, that in its relations to us it is a'foreign country. A ship has been sent to Honolulu, not because there has been any ehauge in the policy of the administration and not because there seems to be any imminent necessity for its presence there. The vessel has been sent in precise accordance with the policy of the administration in every case of the kind, and from motives of extreme caution, and because there is a %possibility that disturbances may be renewed which might result in danger to the persons or property of American citizens entitled to the protection of thetfnited States. Tins course was at v once de\ermi|ied upon as soon as in- - * formation reached the government of the recent revolt. „“So far from having the slightest obr jection to making public tlic inductions which were given to the commander of the Philadelphia and the dispatch he will carry to Mr. Willis, our minister in Hawaii, I am glad to put them before my fellow citizens. Here they are: , , “Washington, Jan. 19, 1S95. Rear Admiral Beardsi.ee, Flagship Philadelphia, 8a?n Francisco, Cal.: Proceed with the United States ship Philadelphia with dispatch to Honolulu, H. I. Your purpose as the United States senior navall -officer, - there ’ will be the projection of the lives and property of American citizens. In case of civil war in the islands, extend no aid or support. moral or physical, to any of the parties engaged therein, but keep steadily in view your duty to protect the lives and property of all such _ citizens of the United States as shall not, by their participation in such civil commotions, forfeit their rights in that regard to the protection of the American flag. An American citizen, who, daring a revolution in a foreign country, participates in any attempts by force of arms or violence to maintain or overthrow the existing government4 cannot claim that the v government of the United States shall protect him against the consequences of such act.

Show these instructions to, and consult freely with, the United States minister at Honolulu, upon all points that may arise, seeking his opinion and advice whenever practicable upon the actual employment of the forces under your command, bearing' in mind that the diplomatic and political interests of the United States are in his charge. Afford him such aid in all emergencies as may be necessary. Attention is galled to Article 287 of the United States navy regulations as amended. Acknowledge by telegram. < (Signed) Herbert. Washington, Jan. 39, 1895. To Willis, Minister, Honolulu:— Although your telegram reporting uprising of January 6 does not indicate that you regard the presence of war ships necessary, the president deems it advisable that one proceed immediately to Honolulu for the 'protection of American citizens and property, should a contingency arise requiring it. You, as our sole diplomatic representative, will confer with the commanding officer as to the assistance which his instructions contemplate in case of need. [Signed.] Gresham.” Secretaries Gresham and Herbert vere in conference with President Cleveland fop several hours at the White House last night, presumably discussing Hawaiian affairs. The cabinet officers said they had received no additional news to that already communicated to the' public through the press.

HAWAIIAN REPRESENTATIVES Tracing tbe Source of the Arms Sent to the Insurgents— Proof Already Accumulated Against Royalist SympathizersSan Fbanciscgo, .Ian. 21.—At the headquarters of the Hawaiian consul there was little information to be gained conoernipg the uprising fur-, ther than has already been published in the correspondence from llonblnlu, but from another and most reliable source it was learned that the government officials at the islands had comig&nicated a number of facts to its representatives in this country by which it is expected to trace up the source of the supply of arms which was obtained by the natives. In fact it is said that the representatives here have already considerable proof against certain persons who are known to lie friendly to the royalists, and who are even now planning to send additional arms to the islands. HELD UP THE WRONG MAN. One of the Highwaymen Shot Through the Heart, ami the Other Wounded. Grand Junction,Colt., Jan. 20. — Alex- &\ der Struthers, master mechanic of of the Rio Grande railway here, was last night stopped in the yards by two men with revolvers, who ordered him to throw up his hands.

THE FARMING WORL& FRUIT IN THE WEST. flow to Grow « ^Iieewwfal Orchard In th* Great Com Bolt. Frait growing in the west is no longer an experiment, but an established fact, as was dearly demonstrated at our great exposition in Chicago. But to grow a successful orchard in the great corn belt of the west requires careful management. The amateur without education along the line of horticulture, or experience, would be us likely to msike a failure 'in fruit growing as the sailor would in agriculture, or the dry goods man in the fine stock business. To be successful in fruit growing at least three things should be understood; Selection of soil, varieties of trees to plant, and how to | plant and cul tivate. First, we would consider the selection of soil and location of the orchard. It is important to have a good location near the dwelling convenient for the wife and children, to make home cheerful and fruit accessible, and invite the winged songsters to enliven all nature around us. „ The location should be on the highest elevation possible, so as to afford . air tlrainage t<S lessen the danger from frost in the blossoming period, and assist in ripening the terminal buds for winter. The ground should be strong and rich. The idea that some have advanced that thin soil is needed for an orchard, is a thing of the past. The soil must be strong enough to grow a good crop of corn. s I would prefer day subsoil, as they retain moist tfre better than any other, and would prefer a deep, black, vegetable mold for the surface. I find that such soils are well adapted for fruit, and produce apples of high color and excellent quality, and our drift deposits are valuable for fruit, such as are found on the Missouri slope west of the divide in the Missouri valley, that are being purchased by fruit men and planted to fruit. - But I cannot urge the selection of good, rich, dry soils too much for fruit lands. At the exposition we made it a strong point to ascertain where all the best specimens of fruit grew in Iowa and other states, and we invariably found that they grew on high, dry, rich soils. But I am aware that many cannot select dry, rolling land, but must plant on level land. To sueh I would say, plow your ground in ridges, so as to carry off the surface water, and plant deep on the ridges, and have the ground thoroughly tile drained. The tile should be laid from four to five feet deep. Fruit trees will never thrive in low, wet, soggy ground.—A. F. Coilman, in Prairie Farmer.

PERNICIOUS NEW PEST. ru<> San Jose Scale Has Made Its Appear* ante In the East. A pest, heretofore confined to the Pacific coast, has made its appearance at various points in the east. This is the San Jose or pernicious scale. The male insect is shown in Fig'. 1, and the female (all greatly enlarged) in Fig1. 2 of the accompanying illustration, which we have reduced from Insect Life. This pest attacks the pear, currant, plum and dwarf apple, and may yet become very destructive here, although in California it has many natural enemies. Wherever found, it should be fought relentlessly and without delay. Spray the affected trees repeatedly, and always so freely that the liquid will drip from the branches and twigs. The emulsion is made« as follows: Thoroughly dissolve one-half pound hard or soft spap in ohe gallon of boiling water. While this is still very hot, add two gallons of kerosene and quickly begin to agitate the whole mass through a syringe or force-pump, drawing the liquid into the pump and forcing it back into the dish. Continue this five minutes,, or until the whole mass assumes a creamy color and consistency, which will adhere t& the

It may now, be readily diluted with cold rain water, or the whole mass may be allowed to cool, when it has a semi-solid! form. This standard Emulsion, if covered and placed in a cool, dark place; will keep for a long time. In making a dilution from this cold emulsion, it is necessary to dissolve the amount required in three or four parts of boiling water, after which cold rain water may be added in the required quantities. Dilute this standard emulsion not more than four and not less than three times with water. This will kill every scale it hits. ABOUT STRAWBERRIES. „ lx hill culture of strawberries the runners are all removed, and for the best results in matted rows a part should be cut off, or some of the plants dug out. Tiik following are good varieties of strawberries: Bubach, Crescent, Enhance, ^Greenville,. Haverland, Lovett, Muskingum, Parker, Earle, Warfield, Wilson. There is little danger of making the soil too rich for strawberries, but there is a possibility of injuring the plants with commercial fertilizers, if placed top closely about the roots, apd with coarse manure. ! - l A good rule in selecting varieties of strawberries is to take only those tliat b.ave shown the best results in many different sections, rejecting those that appear to be variable, and have exhibited weaknesses elsewhere.—Farmers’ Voice.
