Book Description
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to the Secretary of the Interior, 1890 The first authentic information we have in regard to the canning of hermetically sealed goods dates back to the first part of the present century, 1810, when a work was written on the subject by Appert, and published by authority of the French government. Successful experiments had already been made in this direction, but we owe to Appert the discovery and clear exposition of the principles that underlie the beautiful processes of what has grown into one of the most important of modern industries. But conceding to the discoverer of this great industry all the honor we owe him, we must note that there have been so many improvements on his methods that his book is now of little use to the practical canner, and is interesting chiefly as a bit of history. But little progress was made until 1825, when Thos. Kensett and Ezra Daggett obtained a patent from the United States on an improvement in the art of preserving.

Book Description
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to the Secretary of the Interior, for the Year 1878 Department of the Interior, Office of Indian Affairs, Washington, November 1, 1878. Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith the annual report of the Indian Bureau. Changes And Improvements. Many changes have been made since my last report in the methods and management of both the office and agency business. Rules previously established have been enforced, and accountability on the part of employes and of those who have had business with the office has been insisted upon, and the affairs of the office generally have been put upon a strictly business basis. The property and cash accounts of agents have been closely scrutinized and the service purified of such agents and employes as have been found unfaithful to their trusts or inefficient in their management. Claims have been critically examined, and as a result large sums of money have been saved to the government. Contractors have been held to the fulfillment of their contracts, and attempts to put upon the government inferior goods have been met by deductions which have fully protected its interests and have served to deter others from making similar experiments. Some dishonest contractors and employes have been and are now being prosecuted and convicted. Many attempted frauds have been detected and thwarted, and some which had been successful in previous years have been discovered, and it is hoped that the perpetrators may yet be brought to justice. There have been thirty-five new appointments of agents, and it is believed that most of the changes will prove of great benefit to the service. Specific and detailed instructions as to the manner of inspecting, weighing, and issuing cattle, flour, and other supplies have been given, also as to the disposition of funds and the keeping and rendering of accounts at the various agencies. The attention of agents has been called to the necessity of bringing their Indians to self-support at an early day, and education in the fields has been made a prominent feature in the teaching of the school children.

Book Description
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to the Secretary of the Interior: For the Year 1874 Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith my annual report, accompanied by the reports of the superintendents and agents of the Indian Bureau. The statistical returns are more than usually full and accurate. From them will be gathered unmistakable indications of advancing civilization among nearly all the different tribes of Indians, evinced by a gain in all material prosperity, increased interest in and facilities for education, and a growing general disposition of good will toward the Government. I believe that no year in the history of Indian relations with the Government has witnessed such a marked general movement toward the civilization of the Indian. For three years the appliances of civilization have been brought to bear with increasing force upon the red men of the country, and the results produced are gratifying and most hopeful for the future. At twenty-one agencies, Indians who at the beginning of this period made no effort and showed no inclination toward labor or self-support, or education for their children, seem now to have settled into an earnest purpose to adopt a civilized mode of life, and to learn to provide for themselves. For convenience of reference and remark, the Indians of the country may be classified under three heads: First. Those that are wild and scarcely tractable to any extent beyond that of coming near enough to the Government agent to receive rations and blankets. Second. Indians who are thoroughly convinced of the necessity of labor, and are actually undertaking it, and with more or less readiness accept the direction and assistance of Government agents to this end. Third. Indians who have come into possession of allotted lands and other property in stock and implements belonging to a landed estate. A Census of the Tribes by Classes. In the first class are enumerated 98,108, who may be catalogued as follows: 46,663 out of about 53,000 Sioux; 420 Mandans; 1,620 Gros Ventres; 4,200 Crows; 5,450 Black feet, Bloods, and Piegans; 6,153 Utes in Colorado and New Mexico; 9,057 Apaches in New Mexico and Arizona; 2,000 Navajoes in New Mexico; 4,975 Kiowas and Comanches in Indian Territory; 6,318 Cheyennes and Arapahoes in Indian Territory, Wyoming, and Dakota; 5,352 Chippewas in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan; 300 Nez Perces in Idaho; 1.600 Shoshones and Bannacks in Wyoming; 1,000 Shoshones and Bannacks in Oregon.

Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to the Secretary of the Interior for the Year 1880 Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith the annual report of the Indian Bureau for the year 1880. Gradual progress in the arts of industry has been made by the various Indian tribes during the past year, and in some instances the advancement toward civilization has been marked. The efforts of a number of the tribes in cultivating the soil have been attended with a degree of success that has set at rest the question not only of their ability to learn the arts of husbandry, but also of their willingness to engage in pursuits at once honorable and lucrative, which, at no distant day, will make them self-supporting, and place them beyond the care of the government. Special reference will he found hereinafter to those tribes whose progress in farming and other pursuits has been especially noteworthy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs: To the Secretary of the Interior for the Year 1879 Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith the Annual Report of the Indian Bureau for the year 187 9. During the year there has been a steady and manifest progress in civilization which has had no parallel in any previous year in the his tory of Indian civilization under this government. The spirit of progress cannot be said to have pervaded all tribes alike, or with equal force; but, as a whole, the Indians of the country have taken a long stride in the right direction toward complete civilization and eventual self-sup port. The most decided advance in civilization has been made by the Ogalala and Br'ul'. Sioux, and their progress during the last year and a half has been simply marvelous. They have manifested an excellent disposition and shown commendable zeal in carrying out the plans of the government for their benefit. It is no longer a question whether Indians will work. They are stead ily asking for opportunities to do so, and the Indians who today are willing and anxious to engage in civilized labor are largely in the major ity. There is an almost universal call for lands in severalty, and it is remarkable that this request should come from nearly every tribe except the five civilized tribes in the Indian Territory. There is also a growing desire among Indians to live in houses, and more houses have been built, and are now in course of erection, than have been put up during any previous year. The demand for agricultural implements and appli anoes, and for wagons and harness for farming and freighting purposes is constantly increasing, and an unusual readiness to wear citizens' clothing is also manifest. The loss of the buffalo, which is looked upon by Indians as disastrous, has really been to them a blessing in disguise. They now see clearly that they must get their living out of the soil by their own labor, and a few years' perseverance in the beneficial policy now pursued will render three-fourths of our Indians self-supporting. Already very many tribes have a surplus of products for sale. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
