Tuesday of this week, the Maul teams demonstrated their ability as players and made a showing, of which Maui may well be proud. The first game which was played last Saturday afternoon between the Hilo J. A. C.s and the Maui II. A. C.s, was somewhat of a joke ,and ended with a score of 21 to 12 in favor of the visitors. There was no doubt but that the Hiloites were somewhat up- set by the trip from Hilo. The local team for some reason or other failed to play to form and allowed the visit- ors to scamper around the bases till they were practically worn out. The balance of the games, however, were a different story and the local boys made good, and Maui saw some base- ball that was really worth while. From a financial standpoint the ser- ies was very disappointing to the pro- moters, who were left to make up a deficit of a considerable amount, in order to meet the expense of bring- ing Hilo team to Wailuku. On no oc- casion were the crowds up to expecta- tions, which was no doubt due, in part at least, to the poor showing made In the initial game. The scores for the different games were as follows: Saturday, August 25th MauiH. A. C... 3 4 0 0 2 2 0 012 Hilo J. A. C. . . 6 2 0 3 0 2 6 021 Sunday, August 26th Maui J. A.

Maui in which a num- ber of leading Japanese merchants and business men are taking an active interest. At a meeting held last Sun- day at Wailuku, the following officers were elected: President, J. Onishi; t, S. Yoshimasu; Sec- retary, S. Nakamoto; Treasurer, H. Hanaoka; Auditor, N. K. Otsuka.. The directors of the organization are H. Oyagi, S. Saito, S. Ikeuchi, and C. Kozukl. The new association takes the place of the former Japanese Merchants' Association and is placing itself on record as organizing for the welfare and advancement of Maui. tt Marshall-Kingsb- ury The following announcement has been received on Maui by a number of friends of Mrs. Katherine Kingsbury, who formerly resided in Wailuku. Doctor Edward Jones Announces the marriage of his sister Mrs. Katherine Kingsbury to Mr. John Murray Marshall On Saturday the Eighteenth of August One Thousand Nine Hundred and Seventeen Los Angeles, California. The wedding ceremony occurred on August 18 at the Los Angeles resid- ence of Mr. Fred. Kingsbury, and was witnessed by only a few of the most intimate friends.

BRITONS OF MAUI TO DO THEIR BIT Meeting At Puuncne Well Attended Expect To Sail With Last In Nevember SEVERAL QUESTIONS TO SETTLE Recruits May Be Given Preliminary Medical Examination On Maui Before Leaving A meeting of the British Recruiting Commission for the island of Maui was held at Puunene last Wednesday evening, when Mr. II. D. Sloggett and Mr. James B. Mackenzie, the local representatives talked over matters with the Maui volunteers. As the meeting was the first of its kind and only a preliminary one, nothing de- finite was arrived at, although the last draft sailing about the middle of November seemed to be favored. As the written matter from Hono- lulu seemed rather vague on certain points, a number of questions arose which were noted by Mr. Sloggett who will take them up personally in the near future with the recruiting officer for the Territory. If these are satisfactorily answered it is certain that recruiting will proceed and there will be eligible men to come forward. It was intimated that Dr. Rothrock of Paia would be in readiness to put the recruits through the necessary pre- liminary examination, although it was pouted out, that a second would prob- ably be necessary in Honolulu, by the medical authorities in, charge there, before the recruit would finally be ac- cepted. Those present were H. D. Sloggett, J. B. Mackenzie, D. C. Rattray, F. l, J. B. Thomson, J. H. Pratt, F. Peacock, James Hood, George Crook, Patrick Robertson, Dr. Fitzgerald, Alex McNicoll, Ben Williams. William Phillips and A. McLaren who were un- able to be present, sent word that they were to be counted on. Bridge Party To Announce Engagement Mrs. II. B. Penhallow of Wailuku, entertained about twenty-fiv- e ladies at a pleasant bridge party last Wed- nesday afternon. Card tables were ar- ranged on the spacious lawn under the beautiful shade trees, and delici- ous refreshments sped the hours only too quickly. The affair was in honor of Miss Gwen von Tempsky, the sec- ond daughter of Louis von Tempsky, and was given to announce her en- gage ment" to Mr. Barton J. Bridge-for- d of Wailuku. The young lady, who is charming and popular was showered with felicitations. Mr. Dridgeford who arrived here from the Northwest about nine months ago, is manager of the Insurance Department of the Bank of Maul, at Wailuku. FAREWELL PARTY TO POPULAR PAIA BOY Master Robert Murdoch was the guest of honor at a beach party Thurs- day night to which his many young friends of central Paia were bidden by Me.sdames lioyuin, Foster and Ni-co- who arranged the affair. About thirty-fiv- guests gathered to enjoy a delicious spread at the old lime-kilt)- , in the moonlight, and later motored to the Paia Community House where dancing had been arranged for as a surprise to end a very pleasant even- ing. Robert Murdoch leaves on Satur- day for the East where he will enter the Boston School of Technology. Rev. II. P. Judd, of Honolulu, will preaches tomorrow evening at the Wailuku Union Church. OAHU POLO TEAM WINS FASTGAME Maui Team Is Unable To Wrest Game From Fast Oahu Players Was Uphill Game GAME WAS WON BY SPEEDY MOUNTS Large Crowd Witness Second Game Of Series Maui Was The Favorite In Most Exciting Game Of Season The Maui" polo team met defeat at the hands of the Oahu players in the second game of the 1917 Island polo championship, which was played off on last Saturday afternoon and ended in a score of 13 to 7V4. The game from the very start seemed to be in favor of Oahu and it was only in the final period that Maul seemed to have the advantage. It was impossible that late in the game to make up the lead that the home team had secured in the earlier periods. From start to finish It was a game of speed and brought out some of the finest horse- manship ever seen on the islands. The game was marked by no excep- tional star playing but seemed to de- pend entirely on who had the fastest horses and with this last in favor of the Oahus it was an uphill game, for Maui, from start to finish. The field was in exceptionally good shape and a crowd which practically tilled all parking space, the grand- stand and the bleachers, cheered to the limit. If cheering would win a game it would have gone to Maui, as the latter was no doubt the favorite with the crowds. The Hawaiian band played between the periods. The lineups were as follows Oahu: Wal- ter MacFarlane 1, Harold Castle 2, Walter Dillingham 3, Arthur Rice 4, Maui: Harold Rice 1, Sam Baldwin 2, Frank Baldwin 3, Dave Fleming 4. tt A Friend Of Maui One of the principal speakers at the recent Chamber of Commerce Dinner at the Maul Hotel, was Mr. Emil Berndt of Hono- lulu, who had much to say regarding the rare beauty of Maui secenery. The Advertiser reports him as follows: "After having spent three weeks on Maui, Emil A. Berndt, chairman of the promotion committee has return- ed to Honolulu. On his trip he did a considerable amount of boosting for the civic convention and traveled ex- tensively through the Valley Isle. Maui will be well represented at the civic convention, Mr. Berndt be- lieves. He says fifty or sixty delegates may be expected and that those who bring their wives and families will thus double the number of. visitors from that island. During his travels through the is- land Mr. Berndt visited the cement works on the Maul Agricultural Com- pany property near Paia The plant has been completed and Is expected to soon be in operation. It is to have an output of 200 to 300 barrels daily. At the Haleakala rest house, he says, records of number of tourists ac- commodated are being broken this season." tt DIVORCES GRANTED THIS WEEK Divorces in the following cases were granted by Judge Edings of the Cir- cuit Court, on August 30, to take effect from and after September 10, 1917.

THE NEIV YORK SCHOOL PROBLEM

An editorial in a recent issue of the Star-Bulleti- n called attentionto alleged inefficiency in the New York city schools due to politicalKraft. With a target much nearer home the Star-Eullct- in editor pref-erred to expend his ammunition on a target located at a hopeless distancewell out of the range of its circulation, or was the editor only aimingat New York, and the editorial noise was intended for the local schoolboard? Since the New York school board is turning out very unsatisfactoryspellers at a very big expense to the city taxpayers, is the local schoolboard getting any better results, or in other words has ex-edit- or Kinneymade good or is he simply working on a theory the resulting good fromwhich he hopes to be better than the resulting good worked out on thetheories of his predecessors in office?

At the recent summer school session the official wireless censor letthrough a report, probably to advertise the nearly forgotten fart of thepresence of the summer school gathering , that some unnamed teacherhad cheated at the exams, as if cheating at lessons by an unknown personwas as an important piece of news as the allied offensive at Lens inFrance.

Now at the summer school there was some complaint about thespelling tests being hard, and goes to show how the finished product ofthe local school board fell in the same plane as the raw product of theNew York school board, and further goes to show poor spelling to bea universal failing.

Another much grumbled about policy of the school board is thatof importing school teachers. Every year it is said between fifty anda hundred school teachers are brought in from the mainland to fill thebest positions in the Territorial schools to the exclusion of local talent.Now this is no new school policy, from the good old days under themonarchy it has always been so. Whenever former educational boardsfelt financially able to do so they imported teachers, and when thefinancial showing was poor the importation fell off. Public opinion onIhis point, if public opinion existed at all, favored imported talent, right-ly taking the position that home talent was not sufficient to supply thedemand, but it appears the imported talent are unable to root out poorspelling, or did they bring the issue with them all the way from NewYork to Hawaii? And if by chance the home trained teachers could getthe upper hand could they master the subject and make good spellers ofthe youth of this Territory?

CITIZENSHIP-WOR- K AND REGISTRATION ON MAUI

The tense interest which our daily papers and monthly period-icals have shown in trying to find out the attitude of the young men inthe sugar camps here on Maui concerning Registration, tempts me torelate an experience that we as citizenship-worker- s had the evening be-fore Registration in a camp not far from Wailuku.

The boys were no sooner together than they began asking questionsconcerning Registration. Some of the questions, to be sure, were hypo-thetical, but most of the inquiries showed a real interest to know what themorrow held in store for them. It was also quite evident that the boysback in the camps were equally interested to know and were using theseboys as a medium for their own questions.

Luckily we sensed the situation and upon the suggestion of one ofour party I offered to come down to the camp and tell them somethingabout Registration, besides offering myself as a target to all the questionsthey might ask.

Upon my arrival in the camp, lanterns were lit and hung to handynails here and there; benches were drawn up in order but the boys,In the majority of cases they were already in bed for the night. Justa few were sitting on a porch to one side. Who could have guessedthat about sixty boys, some Philipino, some Portuguese, and some Jap-anese would be filling the benches and standing around in a circle in tenminutes. With the help of interpreters I tried to erase a few falsenotions that they had gotten. Among some of the worst notions weresuch as the following; that to register meant to sign a contract for fiveyears to go to war. Another was that if they registered they would notbe granted any time to say good-by- e to their family and friends.

There is, perhaps, no special significance in these facts by themselves. But in the light of developing good honest faithful Americanson Maui it can not be emphasized too strongly, for the lesson that itseems to me must be driven home to all true Americans is the eagernesson the part of these foreign-bor- n boys in our midst to know more aboutthe institutions of the government in which they are working. If wecould picture ourselves or our children in a foreign land striving withevery intention of being law-abidi- citizens but wholly without theknowledge of whether we are obeying or breaking the laws, we would,I'm sure, be more interested in seeing to it that these honest but iimorantboys lhat come to our coast receive every possible opiortunity of learning what our country really stands for.

Laying aside the matter of expediency, I consider it one of our greatduties to otter these boys all the opportunities possible to learn not onlythe English language but also something of the American institutions.Regardless of whether we look upon them as "guests" of our common-wealth or whether they are to be our future citizens, nothing short ofthis is commensurate with our duty to them and to our country.

THE DROUGHT

The drought, now prevailing on, Maui, is likely to cause much lossto the Maui plantations, and if continued much longer might easily makthe loss amount to millions. If some plan could be worked out forconserving the storage of rain water or surface water annually allowedto escape to the sea by the billions of gallons, much of this loss couldhave been averted, but the prevailing policy seems to be to provide theditches, the pipe lines and reservoirs of not very large storage capacity,leaving the supplying of the much needed water to providence.

Now the large plantations are not the only sufferers from the!drought. Residents of the towns of Kahului and Wailuku received a

reminder of the prevailing water scarcity in the form of a premptorynotice from the Board of Supervisors to stop usinir water for lawnirrigation, and that water will be- shut off between the hours of 8:30 p.m. and 3 a. m. Friday night and presumably until further notice.

v conservation policy looking to the building of more and largerreservoirs all around would have tided over the present water scarcityand be an insurance against repetition of our occasional lenn nfand inconvenience from scarcity of water.

tt" .....,A woman cannot bo too careful

how she interprets the word economyju.st at this time. For her to hoardmoney, to cut down on necessities, tocheck the wise and regular flow ofmoney into the usual channels inwhich she spends, is not asked of her.If this is her view of economy she willdo the country harm, and create a de-

INTELLIGENTFOOD CONSERVATION

By Ernest F. Robinson, M. D.Many of those who are trying to fol-

low the advice of the government inregard to the conservation of food arenot doing so intelligently. When anyone has followed a certain diet for along time, it is not wise to make asudden change in it, even for a betterdiet. The first thing of importance,then, is to make the changes a littleat a time.

Next you must consider your ownneeds and those of the rest of thefamily. Those, for example, who havebeen eating more meat than they real-ly need can reduce this part of the ra-tion, but those who are already eatingas little as is healthful should not tryto reduce it further. Remember that,while it is possible to get all the nec-essary protein from a strictly vegetar-ian diet, this cannot be safety attempt-ed by any one except one with a gooddigestion and doing plenty of hardwork. Another point is that growingchildren need more meat and otheranimal proteid foods than do adults,especially the aged.

Next as to starchy foods. It Is wiseto use corn bread part of the time in-

stead of wheat bread, but it is not wiseto use it exclusively. Graham breadand whole-whea- t bread are excellentfor most persons. There are, how-ever, various conditions which maymake it unwise for certain individualsto use much of these. This applieseven more to the use of rye flour. Ricecan replace potato part of the time;but the potato when properly cookedis rich in cell salts, and should not begiven up entirely.

Fat is a very necessary part of thediet, but "Criso or Wesson Oil" orsome similar preparation can well re-

place butter, part of the time at leastand especially for cooking. Olive-oi- l

and peanut-oi- l are useful in this way.As a nation we use far too much

sugar and most persons can reducethe daily consumption of sugar toadvantage. In the vast majority ofcases cake, pastry, and desserts ingeneral, except fruit, are absolutelyunnecessary. It is starch and sugarin these forms which can be reducedthe most safely.

Remember that tea, coffee, and co-

coa are not necessities in any case.They are mild stimulants, but asidefrom the milk and sugar have virtual-ly no food-valu-

Most persons in good health will dobest to reduce the total daily rationrather than any special line of food,in all probability. Potato once a dayis plenty for any one. Very few needmeat, fish, or eggs more than once a

ti

day; and no one needs these for morethan two meals a day. Two meals aday is a good plan for those who donot need a large quantity of food,those who do no hard muscular work,provided the digestion is good. Thisis not a good plan for those with weakdigestions. Remember that overeat-ing Is virtually always due to rapideating. Eat slowly, and chew all foodwell, and you will eat less and digestmore of what you do eat.

Remember that the more vegetablefood you eat, especially the moregreen foods, the more waste there isto get rid of; hence the ofter thebowels must move. With a strictlyvegetarian diet this would mean threetimes a day.

Finally, remember that the needsof each member of the family as tofood are different. It is folly to ex-

pect grandpa and his growing grand-son to live on the same kinds andquantities of food. Christian Ende-avor World.

'A Strange Belief

About Forest Fires

Old Theory Of No Value According To

Forest Service Experts Enormous

Quantity Of Fiber Destroyed In

California

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 10. Thereis an odd belief widespread throughthe mountainous regions of Californiain the benefit and ralue of forest fires,according to the Forest ServLce. Theessence of this belief, known as "lightburning," la that a fire spreading alongthe ground in the forest does no dam-

age to the timber, but removes the lit-

ter and underbrush which, if allowedto accumulate, becomes fuel for a firethat in time will consume the maturetimber. Therefore, In the opinion ofthose holding this theory, occasionalfires in a forest are beneficial andnecessary. The Indians and earlysettlers, it is said, always "light burn-ed" the forests in order to make feedfor the deer and the cattle and toclear the brush out of the way, andthese fires did the forest no barm, buton the other hand, did a great deal ofgood.

This theory, declare the experts ofthe Forest Service, although a some-what plausible one on its face, Is en-tirely fallacious, and light burning, ifpracticed, would do an immense harmto the forests of California and affectadversely the welfare of the ' entirestate. The damage done to the younggrowth by a "light fire" is severe.Fifty percent of the trees between tenand fifteen feet high are usually kill-ed by a fire running through the for-est. Nor is any permanent protectiongiven the forests by the removal ofthe litter on the ground by fire, forwithin a few months It accumulatesthicker than ever from the immenseamount of foliage and young stuffkilled but not consumed by the lightfire. This material begips to fall soonafter the light fire, and in a year ortwo Is often more plentiful than everbefore.

A few years ago the Forest Serviceexperimented with "light burning" onan eighty-acr- e tract In Shasta Coun-ty near Castle Rock. The tract whichhad not been touched by fire for four-teen years, consisted of dense thicketsof young trees, mature timber, patch-es of brush and grass. Fire was al-

lowed to run uncontrolled over it.Part of the litter was consumed andmuch brush was killed but not burn-ed. Sixty percent of the young treesbetween ten and fifteen feet high werekilled. Six months later the litter onthe ground was just as plentiful ai Ithad been at the time of the fire. Twoand a half years after the experiment,the needles and leaves on the groundwere fifty percent more than at thetime of the burn. It was estimatedthat the risk of fire in this tract hadbeen increased at least fifty percentIn less than three' years.

, .This erroneous "light burning" theo-ry has not been entirely confined tomountaineers. A year or two ago, theofficials of a Sierra power company,it is said, thinking to decrease . thefire hazard along the right of way ofa large lumber flume, caused to beset controlled fires. A year or twolater an accidental fire spread to thisright of way, and so great was the ac-

cumulation of the needles and debris,the fruit or the light burn, that thliaccidental fire could not be controlled.It wiped out several hundred feet offlume, causing a great loss to the com-pany.

It would have been much better torthe forests of California, declare theforest experts, if the Indians and ear-ly settlers had not set the fires theyare credited with setting. As a resultof fire, there Is not a forest In Califor-nia that contains as many maturetrees as the ground is capable of sup-

porting. Of the 1,300,000 acres oflands covered with the brush in theNational Forests of California, a mil-

lion acres at one time supporteddense stands of mature timber. Thereis evidence at hand that 25 billion feetof mature timber have been destroy-ed by fire in California, enough torun all the mills of the State for 25years. There is one region In theSquaw Creek country in Shasta Coun-

ty of 150,000 acres that in the sixtieswas heavily forested. Today it Is chiefly a chaparral desert due to a fire inthe seventies. Another fire in thissame region on the southeast slope ofMt, Shasta near McCloud destroyed10,000 acres of yellow pine and sugarpine in the seventies. The Umber hasnever returned. Chaparral has takenits place. Undoubtedly, declare theForeBt officers, this belief In the valueof light burning has been responsiblefor a loss of millions of dollars to Callfornia.

Some Good

Shows Coming"The Prison Without Walls"

Two-fiste- Wallace Reid was selected for the star of the film whichgoes on at the Wailuku Orpheum Sun-

day night, and those who have becomeacquainted with his work through hisfrequent and popular appearance heremay take it for granted that he willdo justice to the part he has. "ThePrison Without Walls," the story ofa campaign against the iniquities ofthe prison system with an excellenthuman interest story back of it, affordsReld opportunities to do his best, andMyrtle Stedman, his completesan interesting combination.

Reld was the first movie star torealize the pulling power of the realfight on the screen and his work in"The Birth of a Nation," Griffith'smasterpiece, put an end forever in firstclass productions of the fake battle.When Reid scraps, he scraps, and ifhe gets beaten it is because the scen-

ario called for that. There is a bonusIn the studio to the man who beatshim in a film fight sufficiently well tomake the audience believes it. Incid-entally, the present story was writtenfor him with his two-fiste- powers inmind.Pauline Frederick as "Sapho"

It will not be difficult for patronsof the Orpheum on Wednesday nextto imagine Tauline Frederick appear-ing in the title role of "Sapho". Thereis something about this popular starthat fixes her as an Ideal artist forpart of the heroine of the immotalDaudet story.

There are a few slight changes inthe camera version of this popularplay and one very Important one.In the finale, both book and stageplay, Sapho continued to live a lifethat was considered far from proper.In the screen story the present warhas been drawn upon to good purposeand the heroine is made to repent,take up Red Cross work and makeevery, effort to repent for her earlydissipations. The changes have takennothing away from the story or play.

Thomas Meighan appears as JeanGaussin, student lover of the famousParisian artist's model and the balance of the cast includes Frank Lo- -

see, John Sainpolis, Pedro de Cordo-

ba. This is one of the strongest castsof Famous Players sent to Wailukuin some time."The Battle Of Life"

"The Battle of Life" Is the ofreringand Gladys Coburn and Art Acord arethe stars. This is a pair of new fea-

tured artists over the Fox circuit and

they are equal to the usual high stand-ard set by the Fox stars.

The story deals with a young girl,raised amongst crooks and as a crook.There Is nothing in crookdom withwhich this miss is not thoroughlyconversant All the tricks of the gameare well-know- n to her. The follow-ing of the underworld, however, failsto have the charm for her that ithas for so many of her unfortunatesister and brothers. She rebelsagainst the life and decides it is notfor her. The strength that is neededin renouncing the life to which shehas been Hccustumed and the thor-oughness with which Bhe eventuallyreforms are the features of the filmdrama.

On Sunday, September 2nd, one ofthe most noteworthy productions ofthe season will be offered at the Ka-hul-

Lyceum. II. B. Warner whosegreat characterization of the Begsarin the "Beggar of Cawnpore" was re-

ceived with such enthusiasm will beseen in "The Market of Vain Desire."So great is Mr. Snyder's belief in theworth and value of this picture thatspecial invitations have been sent tothe members of the clergy on Maul toattend that evening and give theirpersonal criticism of this fine intel-ligent work of Mr. Thos. H. Ince.

No more appropriate picture couldhave been secured for a Sunday per-

formance. The intellectual value ofthis picture is as great, if not greater,than the production of the TassionPlay. A young minister in a NewEngland church attracts the attentionof the heads of one of the large NewYork churches. They induce him tocome to New York and take up hiswork in the church where the formerm'ulster has benn taken by death. Inthe city he meets and falls in lovewith a wealthy young member of hiscongregation whose parents are benton her marrying a Frenchman whosetitle Is to them the height of theirambitions. Asked to announce herengagement from the pulpit the min-

ister in a last attempt to bring thegirl to her senses calls in a womanfrom the streets and taking her Ijitohis pulpit he asks whether the girl isany worse whose body is sold on thestreets for gain than the women whosebody is sold in the Market of VainDesire. This picture was recommend-ed by many of the ministers andpriests in the states as containing amoral lesson of Immense value andadvising everyone to see it. Mr.Snyder is arranging a special musicalprogram to accompany this productionon Sunday night at the Lyceum. Theperformance will commence at 8:00o'clock. Adv.

Maui Agricultural NotesMaui County Agent's Trip To Hana

DistrictThe Maui County Agricultural

Agent made n brief visit the liana dis-

trict during the past week to get intoas close personal touch with the fann-ing community as possible, rractical-l- y

the entire trip was made on horse-back, which enabled a more IntimateInspection of the country side. Oneof the most striking feature of the en-

tire trip was the greater or less evid-

ence of the protracted drought beingexperienced over the entire Island.Even Nahiku district, with Its usualheavy rainfall, showed some signs ofthe prevailing drought However, allkinds of garden truck were In a thriv-ing condition. The most notable plac-

es visited being Mr. George A. Pol-lister- 's

interesting homestead In themidst of the Nahiku Rubber Planta-tion, and that of Mr. George Weightat Keanae. Isolated as these placesmay seem to the casual traveler, Itmay be safely said that they fare onthe fat of the land insofar as the, suc-

culent vegetables are concerned dur-

ing this period of unusual drought.As one proceeds along the ditch

trail the scantiness of the impoundwaters is very noticable. However,as one approaches the cane fieldstributary to Hana, the crops, do notappear to have suffered nearly asmuch as in central Maul even thoughno irrigation is practiced in the dis-

trict. Towards the sea-shor- e thecane appears to have suffered some-what more. Hana was reached atnightfull after a trip of approximatelyGO miles overland, every mile of whichpresented some new and Interestingagricultural phase of this somewhatneglected section of Maui. Mr. N.Omsted, Postmaster at Hana, hadkindly arranged interviews with anumber of representative plantationand ranch-me- from Hana to Kipahu-lu- .

The County Agent was very court-eously received by all those Interview-ed, and considerable interest wasshown in the work and aims of theFood Commission. It was found thatmuch work in the way of vegetablegardening was being done, the plantation, managements offering both seedsand land to their employees, of which,however, the children appear to havemade the greater use. The writer wassurprised to learn that taro was sell-ing at $2.50 a bag in and around Hana.When it is considered that up landtaro grows to perfection in this district, it would appear that the smallfarmer has a splendid opportunity togrow the crop profitably.

Through the assistance of Mr. R. A.Drummond, a meeting of the settlersof Waiahonu-Kaki- o Homested Tractnear Pukulua and others of the neighborhood was arranged for. Nineteenmen and women, all Hawaiians, as-

sembled at one of their beautiful treebedecked homesteads, and through anIntelligent interpreter the work andaims of the Territorial Food Commis-sion, was made clear. The closestpossible interest and attention wasshown by all present. All desired to

with the County Agent.Most of the men work on the countyroads when opportunity offers, buttheir homesteads provide most of theirlivelihood. Papaias, taro, sweet potatoes and small garden truck were not-

iced in abundance. Hogs do unusually well, and cost of production is lowwhen Xed on home grown produce. Itwas ascertaiaied that there are aboutone hundred brood sows in the district. Most of these are of native type,and it was plain, could and should begreatly improved. This gave yourCounty Agent his cue. He at onceproposed to the homesteaders thatthey form a little swine breeders association, and that in some way achoice boar would be provided to improve their herds. It is hoped thatthe Food Commission may see fit tointroduce pure bred sires into suchfarming districts as these. It would

be bard to estimate the good resultsthat would follow such a course ifsystematically followed throughoutthe Islands.

The main draw-bac- to the develop-ment of a prosperous diversified agriculture in this district would appearto be the high cost of transportation.A number of concrete illustrationswere given the agent to bear out thispoint. However, there can be no question but that the district should pro-

duce practically all the agriculturalproducts consumed by the local com-munity. Insofar as the commonerfruits, sweet potatoes, taro, etc. areconcerned the district is well provid-ed for. Irish potatoes and field cornand possibly onions and beans, all ofwhich are said to do well tn favorableseasons, should be encourage forfurther development. With this inview the County Agent has made plansto distribute freely among the farmers choice seed potatoes and seeds ofother field crops as is being done inthe Kula and Makawao districts ofcentral Maui. With corn and legum-inous seeds established in the croppingsystem, improved hog and poultry pro-

duction, to which the district wouldseem especially adapted, would followas a natural consequence. The presenthigh price of hogs, poultry and eggsmight well overcome some of the dis-advantages of high transportationcosts, and with increased volume offreight, such costs should be material-ly lowered.

We bespeak for the east end ofMaui, while possibly somewhat limit-ed, a prosperous diversified agricul-ture. Largely manned by the smallnative Hawaiian farmers who knowshis soil and climate through long andintimate association, there needs onlythe guiding hand of a sympatheticgovernment to show him better meth-ods and new and improved varieties.
