AE WRITES FOR FARMERS.
AN EDITOR TO STUDY AGRCUL-
TURE IN HAWAII.
His Ideas on Bananas and Peaches
Says the Latter Should BE Grow
VIII Look Into irrigation.

Editor c. NJ. Ileintz, of the Rural
Californian, VINO Is at the naWaHdn
noteI, WIN stumble on oId trends IN
Honolulu. He is from Los Angeles and
is a close friend of Dave Waldron (ie-
uowned Dave) so well known here.
Mr. lleintz viii spend several weeks
n honolulu and on the other islands.
From here lac may make short run
90 Samoa and Australia before return
ing.
In conjunction with Mr.. Marsdc1
the Coast man will make Il study of
the systems of irrigation in vogue.
Pursuing This Investigation, Eva plan
tAjion will he visited. Nlr. lleintz be-
lieves that bananas grown here receive
100 much irrigation. He says that too
much water will give this fruit bit
ter taste. The newspaper man says
much less water would improve the
fruit and perhaps also the plant.
Another thing Mr. Heintz will work
upon is II peach crop for Hawaii. Said
he: The reason you do not grow the
finest peaches and apricots here is
that YOU do not know how to raise
them. You go ahead and attempt to
cultivate peaches like you would ba-
nanas, or go to the other extreme of
not cultivating them at all. Failure
results. They wont grow; it's no
use you say. Not so. Peaches, the
finest of peaches, should flourish
around Honolulu. You have the eli
mate and to all appearances the soil.
Peaches require carefully selected con-
litions and cultivation. They will not
flourish in neglected state, nor yet
in mill pond with eNtravagant cult
vation."
After pursuing his Investigations
farther MIR. Heintz will make public
his ideas of the prospects for this i'm
portant crop and will give some in
structions relative to the proper cul'
tiyation of the fruit in this climate.
The visitor does not like the Hawaiian
orange and believes there is Il scientific
way to improve its quality. He says
it has an insipid taste which will de-
bar it from competition with the Cal
ifornia article.
Mr. Heintz, being proprietor of the
encyclopedia of farming in California,
The Rural Californian, may be regard
ed as an authority on these subjects.
He is a close student with an eye to
details in agriculture.

for use in the family residence, is the mean

be safer. A few days ago prominent gen

"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
SO near setting fire to the house and burning

This is the sentiment Of quite number in
