Hilo got a paper printed at home
and later another one there was
not the necessity for systematic
hammering on that line here as
previously existed. However,
the occasion having arisen

are respectfully submitted for
that purpose. And whenever the
question is raised here at the

justice in any particular, this pa

the country is to strive for eligi-

a fully equipped State, effort can
be no more usefully expended for
attaining the object than in
developing the other towns and

HILo's RIGHTS.

Some Honolulu papers exhibit
an inordinate sensitiveness toward
the agitation Of the Hilo people
and press for what they deem to
be the rights of that town in the
matter of public improvements.
One sheet has uttered a sneer at
the size of Hilo's population, that

government. Hilo town is entitled
to make claims for itself, however,
on account of the large back
country for which it is the com
mercial gateway, also as being the
capital of the largest and richest
island Of this group. There has
been nothing unseemly about the
way the people and press of Hilo
have kept the civic cause warm,
excepting the exhibition of some
unfortunate factional differences
on the part of the people and an oc-
casional rebellious tone IN the local
papers. But Honolulu can hard.

STUMBLE DIGGERS, SHAY
ERS AND CANE Gull
TlVATORS.

TlVATORS.
We want to call attention
for a few days to three ma
chimes suitable for sugar land
cultivation.
First-Avery's "MALLON"
STUBBLE DIGGER, the peer of
all sugar land implements. The
superiority of this machine
over all similar ones is evil
denced by the fact that until
this season the manufacturers
have been unable to supply
the demand for them. Their
features of absolute merit are
as follows:
(a)-Metal wheels with re-
movable hubs.
(b)-Solid steel teeth.
(c)-Great strength with
lightnesS of draft.
(d)-Improved flanges with
movable teeth.
Avery's "MALLON' lMPROV-
ED STUMBLE SHAVER. This
has lately been greatly i'm
proved and now runs on four
wheels in the furow. The
knives can be raised or lower
ed with ease, with one lever,
without stopping the team.
Can be regulated to shave at
any depth. The knives are
protected by shields, so that it
is impossible for the mules to
be cut by them. There is no
weight on the mules necks.
This Shaver can be turned as
short as a cart and is LIGHT
draft for two mules.
Third-Avery'S IMPROVED
"MALLON' CANE CULTIVA-
TOR. This implement is used
in the culture of both corn and
cane from the first drifting of
the crop, through the entire
cultivating and laying by"
season. IS simple in con-
Struction, strong, durable, light
draft, easily operated and
understood. 1t has the re-
volving sectional discs, which
work on each side of the row,
thoroughly cutting and pull
verizing the soil. The desired
quantity of dirt thrown to the
plant is regulated by changing
the angle of discs on the drag
bar. The operator can pass
rapidly over the crop without
the trouble heretofore ex-
perienced by moist earth stick
ing to the discs, cleaners being
attached to the axle, which
etfectually prevents the discs
from clogging.
These three valuable planta-
ton implements are now in
use at the Pepeekeo, Onomea
and Wainaku plantations and
we shall be pleased to show
testimonial letters from the
managers as to their respective
merits.
To intending purchasers we
would say that the prices of
these machines have been ma
terially reduced this season.
We keep them in stock.

The Utah experiment station made
some trials with underground drains
and cement bitches to ascertain If sub,
irrigation was possible on that soil. A
bulletin issued on the subject In part
says: In 1880 the station attempted to
lay perforated cement pipes. with pro-
tected orifices for the exit Of the water,
but failed. from inexperience, to secure
the successful use Of such pipes. water

the drain readily and made some lateral
movement. During the season OF 1897
We successfully laid perforated cement
pipes. These were laid II feet apart,
ABOUT one foot deep. The water entered
at the head of the plat. in one channei.
nom which the three pipes diverged,
nrst at right angles, and then along
parallel lines the length of the plat,
ending at one point at the extreme end
Of the plat. At this point cistern was
dug. In order that We might flush the
pipes when required. Perforations were
made every IL feet. Into these wooden
plugs were placed. These plugs con-
tanned holes through which the water
could dow. Over the plugs were
placed cans to prevent the soil from
clogging them. For the third season
the underdrains disappointed us very
much. We opened them up the fourth
year and made the perforatiOns in the
plugs larger, in order to secure freer
flow of water, but with no better sue
cess. We kept no account OF the cost
Of the cement drains, as cost will vary

hundred dollars per acre.
The station professors arrived at tho
following conclusions:
l. Subirrigation, whether by large.
open drains or by the cement pipe sys-
tenn, fails to supply moisture enough
for growing crops.
2. The lateral movement Of water
was too slow to furnish the requisite
supply for the evaporation of plants.

3. The subirrigated soil was warmer
than the surface irrigated soil.
4. The atmosphere around the plants,
to the height of IL inches, was warmer

cation.
5. The subirrigated plat did not con-
tain as much moisture as the surface

The Four-Hundred Pound Cow.
The possibilities of butter production
in matter of yield per cow per season is
one of great interest, writes F. w.
Moseley in Nebraska Farmer. Other
things being equal, the smaller the
herd the easier great results can be
obtained. Some of the best results are
shown when but one COW is kept. Yet
no one will deny such results can be
Appropriated when a greater number
Of cows are kept, but in such cases the
cows to start with must be equally

low could be obtained it would pay.
Mr.. John Pritchard, Castleton. Rut-
land county. VT, has cow with rec
ord worthy Of emulation. In reply to
an inquiry made by the writer last
spring some facts were given and are
quoted as follows:
I, "Our COW is six years old, is three
fourths Jersey, and is Of good size. She
calved the 25th of February, went dry
six weeks, had no grain while dry, but
plenty Of hay and corn fodder and .
good warm stable. After she calved we
began to feed her and gradually in
creased 1t to two quarts gluten meal
and two quarts Of middlings in the
morning and the same at evening. with
a peck of cut potatoes per day and
good ration of hay-all she would eat
clean. She has made three pounds
three ounces of butter per day some
weeks and We use all the milk and
cream needed for our family Of two and
some visitors. We do not claim to use
a great deal, but Just all we want. We
raise our cream in a portable creamery
the Occident. Last year our COW made
37s pounds of butter. and We had a
family of i've for over two months-a
uandchild taking three pints Of new
milk every day during that time"

gone dry six weeks OF the year and that
37S pounds of butter were made, the

A Wet Soil Is Cold.

It is not difficult to see how certainly
a wet soil must be a cold one, since I'M
der the summer sun there must take
place a constant and rapid evaporation
of the surface water of the soil and
corresponding cooling of the surface
must take place. When evaporation
has progressed until the absorbent
power of the earth is greater than the
suns rays, or so to speak, until the
pores of the surface are closed, then
commences the baking process so well
known to farmers and SO difficult to
manage. Underdrainage IS the simple
and certain remedy for these evils, since
by removing and keeping removed the
surface water the soil becomes both dry
and warm, which renders it also more
friable, and in every sense easier 10 cul-
tivate.

E E r B o II NJ, of
London, says: Con-
tinued small ship
ments to Europe,
and a consequent
further reduction
in the quantity
afoat, have helped
to cOunterbalance
the usually de-
pressing effects Of
first supplies of

new wheat, and in a general way II
may be said that the trade is begin
ming to feel the effects Of the paucity
Of foreign wheat in view, as manifested
In the quantity afloat for the United
Kingdom, which is now little over
100000 bu, against 24,SOO,0O0 blu
last year, and which means that sup
plies of foreign wheat must be mod
crate for some time to come, a fact
which English farmers with their new
wheat in excellent condition will not
be slow to take note of. There are, in
deed, several sufficient reasons why the
immediate future Of wheat should be
regarded with less encouragement than
was the case a month ago. First and
foremost, it is becoming evident from
the various reports received that the
American crop is not likely to be as
large as was expected, and, indeed, will
fall rather considerably below last
years total, a poor spring wheat crop
much more than counterbalancing an
improved winter wheat crop. In the
second place it is now tolerably clear
that France will not have the album
dant crop once looked for, enough be-
Ing known of the threshing results
In the south, southwest. center and east
Of France to warrant the statement
that only an ordinary average crop has
been obtained in these districts. In
the north and northwest, where the
harvest is now drawing to close, the
results are relatively better, but the
best informed authorities affirm that
the total crop will not exceed and will
probably not equal that Of last year,
50 that, as we pointed out in our last
review, as the stocks Of old wheat have
been practically exhausted in the alb
sence Of any important supply of for
eign wheat in the past season, France
will in all probability import consid-
erably more foreign wheat in 1867
than she has in 1856. The Paris Bull
letin des Halles, we may add, deduces
from the recent Official crop report that
the total crop this year will be about
liz, 750. 900 hectolitres, against 119 $780,
BOO hectolitres last year. So far, how
ever, purchases Of foreign wheat in
France are dificult, owing to it's rela-
lively high price; Danubian wheat, for
instance, sells at Dunkirk or Calais at
equal to 33s Sd per 480 lbs. duty paid.
while at Lille new homegrown wheat
Is offered at Sis to 32s per 4S0 lbs.
Another reason why the trade should
be less respondent is to be found in the
latest official Russian crop report, and
to which neither the Ghirka
wheat nor the Azima wheat crop is
likely to be an average, although the
former is regarded as promising bet
ter than the latter. Wheat buyers gen.
orally have apparently become SO ex-
tremely cautious that they need not be
reminded Of the fact that early crop
specially in America and
Russia, are apt to be misleading, but
under the present extraordinary cir
in regard to the statisti-
:al position, any marked deterioration
in the general crop outlook might find
hem mapping.
