acts authorize her to contract with
her husband with reference TO her
separate property, it may logically be
inferred in the present case that the
statute in question authorized the con
tract in question, not only because the
subject matter of the contract was the
wite's separate property, but because
our statute is broader in that it is not
confined TO contracts respecting separ
ate property, and also because there is
much more reason for allowing 3 sep
arated wife 10 contract with her hus-
band than there is for allowing one
who is not separated to do so.
While there Is much difference OF
opinion upon this point, yet the pre-
pOnderance of authority, as well as the
plain meaning of the words of the stat
ute, and the policy of the law at its
present stage, support the view that q
statute authorizing a married woman
to contract "as If sole" or Z" as q feme
SOLE" or as if unmarried" as variously
expressed, authorizes her to contract
with her husband. See Allen v.

Honolulu, Oct. %, 1895.
OPINION OF E. P. DOLE, ESQ.
I concur in the opinions of Chief
tn -
that there was a sufficient cOnsidera-
ton for the contract; second, that its
validity depends upon law existing
when it was made; third, that when
this contract was made, a married
woman judicially separated from her
husband was empowered by Hawaiian
law to make such contract with
him; and fourth, assuming that it is a
Hawaiian contract, that she can main
tain an action thereon in Hawaiian
courts against the executors of his
will.
Notwithstanding the able and very
carefully considered opinions of Chief
Justice Judd and Justice Frear, / am
is Hawaiian, rather than French; but,
as L am satisfied that its validity
under the French law is sufficiently
well pleaded, my conclusion, for the
purposes of this case, is the same
whether the contract is French or Ha-
waiian.
1 think that the exceptions should
be sustained and the demurrer over
ruled.

The School for Farmers, Boys.

The school that the farmer should
send his boys to, il he desires them to
inherit his acres and keep his home
stead, is where his boy can be taught
agriculture pure and indebted in all
its branches, and the school that gives
employment to teachers that have good
practical, agricultural sense, instead
of theoretical agricultural nonsense.
The great trouble in many schools
where agricultural science is taught is
that the teachers are not practical
men. Too many of them if given a
hundred acres of the best land in the
state, fully equipped with live stock
and farming utensils, could not run the
business five years without putting a
mortgage on the farm Therein is
where much Of the trouble lies in the
present day in the education of the
farmer boy. Too much of it is of the
kind that educates him off the farm In
stead of preparing him for his work. ~

NOTES FOR BEEkEEPERS.

SEE that every colony has laying
queen.
RAISE few good queens to take the
place of the poorer ones.
ALL empty combs that areaway from
the bees should be looked after.
MAKE a general cleanup. Arrange
everything in its place while there is
time.
DISTURB the bees as little as possible
now. Handling them now tends to
make them consume their stores.
FEEDING in autumn Is done for the
purpose in part of stimulating brood
rearing and also for the purpose OF
supplying such colonies as lack food
for winter.
A HIVE of bees, in order to be ready
to occupy surplus boxes, must be full
of bees--so full that they are crowded
for space, so that when the boxes are
put on they will crowd into them.
A CELLAR intended for bees should
not be used for any other purpose, and
it will be much better if it is away
from building that is occupied by a
family, in order to lessen disturbance
of the bees. st. Louis Republi,.

The Importance of Bee Keeping.

Few people in America realize the
Importance of the Bookkeeping indus
try. 1t is estimated that Europe pro-
duces about SIS, 900, 900 worth of wax
and honey, and that similar sum re-
suits from the benefits conferred by
the fertilizing habits Of the bees. So
highly is this industry esteemed abroad
that Germany has 100000 hives,
Spain, 1,69o,0oO; Austria, 1850, 900;
France, 950,OOO; Holland, 5000; Rus
STA, ITO, 900; Denmark, 10000; Belgium,
200, 900; Greece, $4,000. These countries
practically consume their own honey
crop. There is no reason why our con-
sumption should not be proportionately
great. The chief obstacle is the gen.
eral ignorance of the value of honey as
food and the use of it only as an oc-
casiopal treat instead of an article OF
daily food.

and put his umbrella to bed, or did
something like this, tn the great and

ate humor? But this is true story of
Prof Stonehenge and happened only
on the ever-attractive ''other day."
1t appeareth, then, that Prof. Stone
henge was, some time ago, elected sec
rotary of the Pal@ozoic Fossil club, an
association of scientific gentlemen con-
nected with the university. 1t was
found necessary recently to communi-
cate with each member of the club.
and get from him an expression of opin-
ion on a certain question. This work
naturally devolved upon the secretary,
Prof Stonehenge. AS it was matter
of the first importance (relating, if we
mistake not, to nothing less than fossil
footprint, it was decided by the presi-
dent Of the club that a stamped envelope
directed to the secretary be enclosed
in each letter to facilitate the reply of
the member addressed. Prof. Stone
henge prepared the communication in
his private Office, connected with his
lecture-room at the college. He folded
the circulars of inquiries carefully,
directed the fifty envelopes to the MEM
bers and an equal number to himself,
taking care to keep each in separate
pile, so that no mistake might occur

may be simply an invention Of the

in letter box, he took occasion to re-
buke an indolent freshman for the dis
order into which he had allowed his
notes to fall, closing with the observ-
alton that man without the habit of
system in his work was like ship
lacking steering apparatus.
The professor finished his lecture,
relaxed his mind over certain problems
in trigonometry, tarried awhile in the
library and then walked home. His

FARM AND GARDEN.
THE AMERICAN FARMER.
Is He Being Undermined by the Agrlcul
turists of Other Lands?

Is He Being Undermined by the Agrlcul-
turists OF Other Lands?
The American farmer is threatened
with worse danger than drought and
locusts. He is being undermined by
his fellow-workers in other countries.
Formerly the American agriculturist
had things all his own way and other
countries came a.begging for his wheat
and corn and live stock, but there has
been such astonishing progress lately
In other lands In the agricultural line
that he may be forced to discover that
he is not entirely essential to the
carrying on of the worlds business.
Secretary Morton himself acknowl-
edges that there is danger Of this and
that the department of agriculture is
watching with concern the strides In
produce and export made by other ma
tions. The wheat fields of Russia yield
crops that would seem fabulous to our
farmers, and the producers have the
advantage of a market close at hand.
When competition grows brisk our
farmers will find that their most seri-
GUS handicap is the cost Of land trans
portation TO the seaboard. Nothing
can ever alter this, for the Mississippi
river route lengthens the distance to
be traversed until the saving in freight
is more than lost. South America also
presents itself as dangerous rival.
The navigable rivers which extend
hundreds Of miles inland enable farm
ers way in the interior to load their
grain on ocean steamers which anchor
alongside their very fields. All the
farmer has to do Is to SOW his grain
and cut it. He Is not bothered by
freightage, he has no per cent. to de-
duct from his profits and he knows no
railroad combine is liable to step in
and beggar him. II he raises enough
wheat he has corner on all sales.
Argentine and Australia are inter-
fering with our monopoly of the beef
and cattle exports. Australia, with
its immense capability for cattle-rais-
ing, is beginning to send dressed beef
to England, which formerly purchased
all this commodity from us, and Argen-
tine is shipping live cattle by the hun
dred thousand to the same market.
Still, nothing can change the existence
of the fact that the land resources of
the United States are practically un-
