Fourteen dollars a month is
what it costs me for electric
lights for my house, and | wish
| had never had them put in,"
said a lady yesterday when she
was giving us her experiences
on the question of lights. These
are long nights and the house
keeper may well worry over
her lighting bills.
Electric lights are all very
we'll for people with long purses
but for people of average means
there is nothing like the old
fashioned lamps. They give a
softer light, are not SO wear
ing on the eyes, and are not
all the time Jumping and bob
bing about. Oh those who
still use coal oil lamps we ask
attention to a stock that can
not be excelled in Honolulu.
They come in all sizes, styles,
and prices. We have HANG
ING LAMPS, from moderate
cost to elaborate designs; HALL
LAMPS; PIANO LAMPS; ban
quet lamps; lamps for the bou-
doir; nickel-plated lamps for
students; bracket lamps; two,
three and four light chande-
liers. We have mammoth
Rochester Lamps and little
metal night lamps that are very
convenient where there are
children around.
Piano lamps are still as
fashionable as ever. We have
them in new and attractive
styles, together with a large
assortment of beautiful shades
in cUlors to suit.
If there is anything required
in the shape of a lamp for out
side use, on the verandah or
about the stable, we have them
in stock and at very low rates.
No trouble to show our lamps
or anything else we have in
stock.

Consul General Benton's ex-
haustive report on Italian labor
for Hawaii is, barring many en-
closures, How entirely before the
planters and the general public.
Since the latest arising of the
question of European or white
labor, there has been nothing SO
complete in information regarding
any single nationality. This Gov
srnment's representative at Rome
ought to be sedulousIy cherished,
as the amount of labor he has ex-
pended for it's benefiit-iu an office
that is purely honorary as to re
wards-is simply astonishing
His concluding remarks in this
issue are pointed and in keeping
with the ability of the entire
monograph. The whole document
seems to fairly prove that with
care in selection good class OF
labor can be obtained from Italy,
but also that with the hold South
America has on the Italian mind
the labor might not be 80 cheap
as our planters desire. Here
comes mp the important question
as to whether cheapnsss is to b.
altogether measured in dollars.
People who do not admit that the
planters know it all may have
proof in baud that the cheapest
labor a. to rate of wages is some
times the dearest as to net results

Conclliatory and dignified
though the reply of Spain to the
United States may be, there is no
denial that it contains refusal to
admit that the United States has
any right to interfere in Cuba.
30 much may be gathered from
the surmises, which constituted
all that was published from
Washington at last advices.
Concurrently with the news, such
as it is, of the international
diplomacy come the strident notes
of the new commandant's fret
proclamation. This utterance
simply shows that Blanco is not
going to handle the situation with
any more velvety gloves than
Weyler's. In the prospect are
only more drastic repres-
sion, undiscriminating devastation
OF property, ruthless hatchery of
passive dissldents, murderous
treachery toward militant oppo.
nents, and famine and fever added.
to the horrors of the most desul
tory warfare the world has seen.
The problem is how long the
United States, in the known tenn
per OF her peopls regarding the
Cuban chaos, can refrain from
Interference otner than diploma
tic. When the London press
predicts war as inevitable between
the United States and Spain, il is
certainly not without reasons that
are becoming stronger as time
passes.

A Poultry Pest.

The ''small white worms" the
brown chrysalides "in cobweb-
cases" and the small grayish- white
moths with some red and black at
the tips of the WINGS" that are so
abundant in q package of dried
fruit are all forms of the same
insect, which is known as the
Indian-meal moth (Plodia inter.
punotella). This is one of the most
destructive of grocery and pantry
pests, as it not only feeds on all
varieties of dried fruits, but on
various starchy and farinaceous
preparations, such as -four, oatmeal,
hominy, starch and garden seeds,
running silken galleries through
and through the packages and
scattering its granular castings in
every direction. Food of the kinds
mentioned should be kept in jars or
boxes that close very tightly, after
careful examination to see that no
worms are already in it. If any
are indicated a very moderate heat
for 10 or Is minutes will kill the
germs without injury to the pro-
ducts. In warm climates it is not
well to purchase in large quantities
articles subject to the attacks of
this or several other grocery pests,
as after the packages are once opened
it is almost impossible to exclude
these small and sly depredators.

rose bushes are, after the blooming
season of May and early June, left
to shift for themselves. If the soil
is moderately rich they start new
growth along the old wood or send
up shoots from the root, which push
their way in any direction among
the tangle of spent stems and
branches. Various insects attack
them-especially the perforating
rose slug, SO recently domesticated
among us-the leaves become yell
low and brown with the leaf-spot
disease and long before Autumn
they have ceased to grow, and pre-
sent the appearance OF vegetable
wrecks. 1t is true that their great
vitality will enable them to put
forth again in the Spring, and per-
haps bear a fair crop of blossoms,
but they will fall far short of their
possibilities in both number and
perfection Of the flowers, and after
few years of neglect they deterior-
ate to such degree that the vari-
cites can scarcely be recognized, or
they perish outright.
For the benefit of rose growers
whose experience is limited, a few
directions for midsummer treat
ment may he given: AS soon as
the blooming season is over, all an
nual and hybrid perpetual varieties
should be judiciously cut back and
the new growth brought into shape.
With the old wood many insect
pests will be removed, and so it is
advisable to burn the trimmings at
once If the new growth shows any
leaves with numerous holes or rag
ged edges. syringe the plants with
white hellebore tea-one even tea
spoonful to a gallon of water-ta6-
ing care to wet every leaf and twig.
In case the leaves turn brown and
begin to drop prematurely, give
them a Swinging with Bordeaux
mixture. A heavy mulch with we'll
rotted stable manure or compost
mixed with large proportion of
bone meal will put them in con-
dition for strong new growth and,
in the case of the hybrids, will pro-
mote the formation of buds for an
other period of bloom late in the
Summer and continuing until frost.
The tea roses and kindred strains
bloom most freely and perfectly, if
provided with sufficient moisture
during the heats of July and Aug
ust, while the other varieties are
resting. Watering, when done at
all, should be copious and evapora-
ton checked by stirring the soil of
the bed to the depth of couple of
inches, making what is called a
"dust blanket" To follow these
methods will require but little time
or toll in rose beds of ordinary size
and will be followed by satisfactory
growth and bloom.

FOR THE FARMER.


Among the Poultry.
Keep water where the ducks can
help themselves while eating.
The freshest eggs are always the
best for Matching.
Geese and turkeys will not thrive
if closely confined.
Pekins are the best breed ofducks
to raise without water.
When the hens have the scours
feed chalk in the soft feed.
When the hens are confined they
should have plenty of cool, clear
water.
Always feed chickens before CIV
ing them water in the morning.
From now on the best place for
spring turkeys is on the range.
By having low roosts the fowls
will be more comfortable and
humble foot may be avoided.
Dig up part of the poultry yard
and give the fowls an opportunity to
exercise.
Damaged grain or soft feed is al
ways dangerous; it is apt to induce
disease.
Ducks can live in water all day,
but must have dry quarters at night.
Removing to warm, dry quarters
will fight the biggest half of any
disease in poultry.
Hens that are over-fed are not
healthy and will not lay regularly.
Good thrift will give the best results.
Eggs should be cleansed as soon
as gathered, if soiled, especially
those you intend to store away.
Burn up the old nest materials
and replace it with new as soon as
hen comes off with her brood.
Boiling the milk given to the hens
will increase its value and lessen
the risk of its producing disease.
Fowls that have good variety of
food do not need artificial stimu-
lants or condiments to make them
lay or to keep them in good health.
If you breed the fowls to short
legs you gain in having more meat
on the body.
If geese are kept at the lowest
cost, it is essential that they have
good water and good pasturage.
Loss of feathers is usually caused
by want of green food or want of a
dust bath or both.
Too few roosters, old or inferior
stock on the male side, or want of
moisture during incubation causes
the eggs to fail to hatch.
Keep nonsitting breed to lay
when the settlers are Matching, and
in this way have an income to pay
running expenses.
Turkeys are great foragers and
will put in their whole time in the
fields destroying myriads Of grass
hoppers, bugs and other insects.
Pullets should be kept for laying,
but sufficient number of the best
old hens should be kept especially
to lay eggs for Matching
In some cases late broods may be
made profitable, but it is rather the
exception than the rule.

Of military attache to the American EN-
bassy to London was vacant, and had
been offered to three officers, all OF

that their salaries could not support the
dignity Of the job 1t is a very pretty

He is entitled to wear the most decora-

worthy Officers to accept the place In
dlcates that even those expenses mF
be too considerable, The real trouble
must be that the majors in Uncle Sans
