EXERCISE FOR STOCK.
A Subject Which IL Not Fully Understood
BY Livestock Owners.


BY Livestock Owners.
The question of exercise for stock
constantly comes up. There seems too
little known as to what the word exer-
else really means. The gist of the
whole matter lies in the fact that what
would be exercise in the case of one
class of animals would wear off 700
much flesh, while in another class it
would not be healthy exercise. We
refer to the two extreme cases of hogs
and horses.
So far as summer exercise of grow
ing animals is concerned, what they
will naturally take in the fields is am
pie. Sheep, calves and cows will play.
1t is the natural instinct of all animals
to exercise the muscles and sinews.
The older animals will take less. The
physical energies developed, strong
exercise is not necessary. Yet a con-
siderable amount is necessary to keep
the digestion perfect.
AS rule, breeding animals require
and will take more exercise than fat
animals. This matter may safely be
left to the animals themselves. In the
case of horses, when being prepared
for work, the exercise must be such as
will fully develop the animal for the
labor to be performed, whether it be
draft or fast travel. In this the trainer
must be the Judge, and here again the
measure of the exercise is what marks
the distinction between the capable and
incapable trainer. Farm, Field and

To.nirht.. Pin Pool Match.

Messrs. Lon Morris and J. F. B. Nc
Cleery will play their pin pool match
for $3.50 aside this evening, commencing
at Z: 80 sharp, at the Commercial Bill
lard Room, corner of Nuuanu and Bere-
tania streets. A most interesting eXhi-
bition will be witnessed, as both men
are champions at the game. 1t is played
with three balls and five small wooden
pins, which are set up in the middle of
the table, diamond fashion, each pin
having value to accord with the posi-
ton it occupies. Neither caroms nor
hazards count. When the pins are ar
ranged the order of the players is deter
mined in like manner as in fifteeu-ball
pool; after which each player receives a
little numbered ball, the number of
which is not known to any of his OppG-
nents. The object of the players is to
knock down as many pins as will count
thirty-one when the number on the
small bail held by him is added to their
aggregate; thus, if the small ball be No
9, the player will have to gain twenty.

ABOUT DOMESTIC HELP.

There is but one opinion among heads
of families who employ domestic SER
wants in this country, which is, that the
ouality of the service is inferior and the
cost exorbitant AS matter of neces-
s;tv the preference is given to Chinese;

rising generation of Portuguese females
nav afford some little measure of choice.
However. the conditions of industrial
and social life on these Islands give very
little hope for present relief from that
quarter. There are SO many openings
for comparative independence from the
Irudoery of hired labor, which Portu-
ouese immigrants are among the first to
perceive and utilize, that we incline to

A DIPLOMATIC CHANGE.

We learn that Mons. Henri Feer, Con
sui and Commissioner of the French Re-
rrblic, received by last mail from the
Paris Foreign Office notification that
his request to retire from the service on
a pension had been granted, and that on
this occasion the President of the French
Republic was pleased to confer upon
him higher honorary rank. Mons.
Laurent Cochelet, now acting Mel
bourne, has been appointed to succeed
Mons. HI. Fees as French Consul and
Commissioner near the Hawaiian Court.
N. Feer was named at Honolulu on the
4th of October, 1880, and took posses
sion of his post on the 18th of May fol-
lowing. NJ Laurent Cochelet is eX-
pected to arrive in our Capital by one OF
the next Australian steamers. We are
well assured that we only voice the SEN
tiInent of all classes in this community
in expressing regret that Mons. H. Feer
and his amiable family are about to take
their departure from this Kingdom.
During their stay here they have con-
tributed largely, by their refined tastes
and social qualities, to extend and
strengthen the respect which this
country should ever entertain for the
French nation.

THE HARBOR.

Our esteemed contemporary, the
Herald" Is evidently afflicted with
water on the brain, and sea water at
that. We are sorry for it, because we
had hoped that he would have had
long and prosperous career. But harbor
improvements are too weighty for him.
He has evidently got into deep water,
and we can only hope that he will be
able to swim to the edge, about which
he writes so feelingly, and save his life.
1t is really of no consequence to the
country whether our friend thinks the
water space of the harbor is lessened by
reducing the tidal area or is enlarged
thereby. To speak without reserve of
any kind, however, we may reasonably
expect, after late editorials, that the
Herald will next attempt to demon
strate that a pint measure holds a
quart. Unless he can do this, his har-
Dor exposition profiteth not.

THE LOAN.

A private letter from London, dated
September 10th, has the following ref
erence to the Hawaiian Government
loan: 81 see the new Hawaiian loan adj
vertised here, and [ hope it will be
success and bring the country good" 1t
appears evident that no time has been
lost in placing our securities on the mar
ket, but as the Act under which the loan
is to be raised was only approved Octo-
Der 18th, and the Financial Agent au-
thorized to negotiate it was appointed
October 23d, it would appear as if the
advertisement of the loan in London
early in September was premature. In
deed, the first Loan Act, under which
no executive action was taken, was only
approved on the LIST September.

believe that as a rule they will prefer 10
toll on their own account even on less
advantageous terms for themselves than
to work for wages. This more especially
applies to the wives and daughters OF
Portuguese settlers, whose industrious
habits will be turned to account at home,
while the male members OF the family
90 out daily to earn money. And in the
case OF the Japanese it is too early to
speak positively. As a rule, however,
they are not appreciated as domestics-
This is a very important question, /
however, in its social as well as in its |
economic bearings. The large prepon- /
derance OF adult males over females in /
the country renders the growth Of popu- /
Iation by natural increase almost inn /
possible. Indeed, were immigration TO
cease, We are satisfied that the deaths
would soon outnumber the births, de-
spite the fertility of the Portuguese.
Under these circumstances the founding
OF homes and raising of families would
not progress at an encouraging rate.
The remedy for all this appears to be to
introduce, for some time at least, pre-
pOnderance Of female immigrants for
domestic service. There need not be
much difficulty in the way of this if the
immigration Bureau goes to work the
right way. A leading New York paper
states that "a well-known Canadian
minister says that the majority of hired
! girls in Canada earn but So month"
| Allowing that this is somewhat exag-
! gerated, there is still a substratum of
| truth in the statement Now, if we are
| to have a direct line of steamships from
! the Pacific Coast in connection with the
| Canadian Pacific Railroad, it might be
arranged to bring young women, OF good
moral character, trained to domestic
service, in such numbers as would rem
der hOusekeepers in this city compare
lively Independent of Chinese help, and
at the same time give assurance that the
family would be preserved, as a Ha-
waiian institution, despite the present
tendency in an opposite direction. 4
guarantee might be given, by house
holders pledging themselves in advance
to employ these young women upon ar
rival, and care could be taken to have
them suitably protected during theil
journey hither
We throw out this suggestion as
worthy of some consideration, unless il
be determined to reduce the population
of this Kingdom to two classes, namely
a handful of men having the command
of capital, and a large community o
alien and servile laborers who would
have no stake or interest in the country
| The wages which might be guaranteed
? to female servants either in Canada, the
Eastern States, or Europe, would il
itself insure an accession of large mum
bers of this very desirable class. There
is no reason why the households of the
Kingdom should be practically con
trolled by the Chinese, through thei
monopolizing the supply and controlling
the disposition of domestic help. Al
immigration of this kind would also
greatly simplify Christian endeavor il
= our midst, and on that account is to b.
, commended.

TEE TIDE TURNING.


 As long the rascally boycotters who have sprung up to trouble this country were permitted to have their own way without much resistance (and they had it altogether too long) the new weapon for the assassin tion of business seemed all powerful. But change is taking place, and it will not be long before the boycott will be determinedly and skillfully fought wherever it shows its villainy.
 Not little progress in this direction has already been made. Boycotting has been declared q crime in Connecticut, New York and Wisconsin. In many places business men are discovering that they must resist the boycott or come under unbearable tyranny. The action of the Brewers association of New York in supporting Brewer Ehret, who was boycotted because he told tEe truth on the witness stand, is sign of the times. So is the action of Charles Harrington & Co.,, boot and shoe manufacturers of Salem, Massachu- setts, who have decided to prosecute an executive board" on the ground of conspir- acy and intention to defraud and injure the firm in the sale of it's goods. The first notice of the boycott on Harrington & Go. was given February 10. The men went out on strike on December 15, and the whole trouble hinged upon the refusal to discharge a workman employed for years by the firm, and with whom the firm were under con- tract to employ him for a year, because he, through the wishes and influence of his family, would not join the Knights of Labor. A number of boycotted business firms in Richmond Virginia, have begun to make war on the bovcotters. A petition has been presented to Judge Bond of the United States Circuit court by these firms, asking for an order restraining the Labor Herald from publishing their names on the black list. This list embraces thirty or forty houses that have continued to deal with Boughman S Bros, boycotted stationery house. An order was entered Tuesday by Judge Bond prohibiting the Labor Herald from publishing the name of T. R. Wiles, Q British subject in Richmond, who is one of Boughman's boycotted customers. The in- junction asked for now is more eomprehen= sive, and embraces all of the blacklisted GUS toners of that firm.
 This is the way to go to work. It only needs correct understanding of the legal rights of business men and fair amount of pluck to put an end to the dastardly boycott in this country. The JOURNAL AND COURIER has begun the work in New Haven, and we shall be glad to assist anybody else who will not submit to tyranny founded on ignorance and spite.
