Some Valuable Hints for Hawaiian Coffee
Planters on Cleaning, Hullng and

Oscar White of Z. o. Hall g.

with a report of Ohs, McAllister
& Co., San Francisco coffee ex-
perts and dealers, on present CON
ditiou of the Hawaiian coffee
trade in that city, together with
ruling prices for the same.
This report is most valuable
and its careful study is commend
ed to every coffee planter in th e
islands, as it shows the need of
properly preparing their coffee
before shipment co market and
the largely enhanced prices OBJ
tainable thereby.
The prices quoted are as fol-
lows:

say under date of October L:
Importatious.-During the fiscal
year from July 1, 1896, to July l,
1897, the arrivals amounted to
1892 bags.
BY far the larger portion of the
above consisted of Inferior Wash
ed Coffee. The few parcels of
Prime Washed Coffee received,
part hulled at the Islands, part
hulled here, established imme-
diately a market of their own at a
premium of from u to &c. per ID.
due to their infinitely superior
quality as compared with the In
ferior Washed, and taking rank
at once with the highest grades of
Central American.
Prices - For inferior washed
opened in July, 1896, at l9Ic. and
tlnctuated between that figure and
Isle. until January, 1897, when
1t gradually dropped in sympathy
with the ward course of
coffee the world over, touching
it's lowest point, 15gc., iu June.
1t is now held at 16c. without
meeting much demand. During
this period Prime Washed sold at
2Oa in October, 1896, 20a in
Novem ber, gradually descending
TO the lowest point, lSc. in June,
1897. 1t is now readily salable
at l9c.
Quality.-The Prime Washed
Coffee has intrinsic value in the
cup which places it among the
best coffees of similar kind COM
ing to this country and the prices
paid SO far, today even more than
for the best Guatemala obtainable,
is the most cogent example we
could give of it's appreciation by
our dealers. The planters have
yet to learn, however, to prepai g
their coffee properly as to wash
ing, drying, separating, polishing,
ETC., and these details must be
learned and followed if they ex.
pect to maintain in this and esta
blish in others the present good
opinion in which this coffee ia
held by those who know its merit.
Some parcels sent here in the
parchment to be hulled were so
wet as to render milling almost
impossible, and one lot in particu.
lar had to be dried (imperfectly
of course) 10 a coffee-roasting
cylinder over coke fire before it
,uld be handled at all.
Not only is the expense Of hand

the coffee also suffers in value,
being
lst-Usually musty or mouldy
which at once throws it out OF
high class goods, and
2nd-Always containing an ex-
cessive quantity of water or mois-
ture.
A normal shrinkage in roasting
is l59 per cent. and when in ex-
cess of this, the buyer naturally
sees to it that the purchase price
prevents the additional loss from
falling upon him, by a liberal
discount for that feature. The

FOR THE HOUSEHOLD.
A variety OF Hints which May Prove
of Use.

When perfumes are not disagreeable
10 a patient it is well to use them freely
In a sick room, as they are protection
against contagion. 1t is said that if
lavender water is sprayed through the
living rooms of houses situated in a
malarial locality, it will prevent the oc-
rupants from contracting the disease.
The back and arms of an old chair
that seem to be of no use will make an
excellent bed rest for an invalid. The
rest is made by cutting away the seat
and legs and padding the back and
arms with pieces Of an old comfortable
and covering this with some delicate
colored chintz or satine, or. when the
rest is in use, one may fill the back and
sides with pillows.
When hanging sash curtains in the
summer cottage windows and rods are
not at hand, take picture wire. 1t can
be fastened securely from brass-headed
nails, the curtains can be readily drawn
upon it, and it will not sag as piece of
twine will.
Do not forget in packing away silver
for the summer to put a few pieces of
ramphor in the box with it. This will
help to keep the silver from becoming
discolored, as it oftentimes will when
not in use.
Mothers in the country with children
will do we'll to visit the barn and Sc
cure box of oats to keep at hand. Wet
shoes, as soon as they are removed
from the feet, should be filled with
the oats and left until perfectly dry.
The oats absorb the moisture in the
leather and preserve the shape OF the
shoe.
Figs that have become dried may be
freshened by laying them upon plate
and placing the plate in steamer until
the fruit is softened and full. Roll the
figs in confectioner's sugar and let
them stand In a warm room awhile.
Now that the berry season has come
around the convenient little article for

preciated. With a cherry stoner and
something for removing hulls or ber-
ries, the housewife does not look upon
this preserving season with such dread,
and stains upon dainty pink finger
nails are a thing OF the past.
A piece of narrow webbing, such as
is used for holding furniture springs

Of rugs, win prevent the corners from
curling; moreover, the rugs are not so
likely to pull out at the ends when
taken hold of too near the edges when
they are beaten.
