gle over civil rights ended with the
proclamation of constitution, OctO-
Der 8, 1910.
The Kamehameha dynasty cOntin-
ued to occupy the throne for % years
longer. But it's career was one of
constant trouble, either diplomatic or
internal. In its foreign relations this
dynasty was in hot water, either with
France or England, much of the time.
Scheming consuls found no difficulty
in fomenting discord. France put her
nose in during 1912, but on that occa
sion Hawaiian diplomacy was equal
to the situation. In 1913, however,
the British consul, Mr.. Charlton,
proved more successful as an in
triguer. He secured the presence of
British ship, commanded by Lord
Paulet. The story of the Charlton ep-
isolde is told in the following words
by document of the Hawaiian repub-
lie: III. b. M. frigate Carysford,
commanded by George Paulet, was
ordered to Honolulu, arriving there
February 10, 1S43. On the arrival of
the king from Lahaina, Lord Paulet
sent him six demands, threatening
war if they were not acceded to by
four p. IN. of the next day. These de-
mands chiefly related to fraudulent
land claim of Charlton's, and to de-
cisions of the courts in certain civil
suits between foreigners. Before the
hour set for hostilities had arrived the
king ,acceded to the demands under
protest, and appealed to the British
government for damages. But a
fresh series of demands having been
made and claims for damages having
been trumped up amounting to $4,000,
the king decided, by DR.. Judd's adj
vice, to forestall the intended seizure
of the islands by provisional cession,
pending an appeal to the justice of
the home government" The latter
disavowed the actions of Lord Paulet,

TURNIP CULTIVATION.
1t Entails Very Little Labor ana
Usunlly Yields Sure and SAT-
IsfactOrY Profit.

There are few crops as easily
grown as turnips or that give larger
Weld under favorable conditions. But
with unfavorable conditions they
often prove complete failure There
is one advantage with them, however,
They require no cultivation; they oc-
cupy the ground but a short time. TX
the crop is short they usually sell at
fair prices, while if the crop is good
one and prices are low they can be
used to good advantage in feeding
stock. In milking cows better re-
suits can be secured by sowing little
earlier, as the plants are able to re-
ceive a much better start to grow be-
fore hot, dry weather starts in. Often
when the seeding is delayed until
the latter part of July, the soil is dry
and the weather hot, conditions are
unfavorable to plant growth, and
though the seed may terminate, the
growth will be very unsatisfactory.
New ground is considered best for
this crop, if it can be prepared in
good filth in good season. In order to
help to retain moisture it is best to
plow reasonably deep and then har-
row or drag until in fine filth. 1t
pays to take time to have the soil thor
oughly worked. The seed is very small
and unless the soil is in good filth
the seed will not terminate and es-
pecially so if there is lack of moist
ure.
When the soil is dry rollingwill often
be found beneficial. Care must be
taken in sowing the seed to scatter
as evenly as possible over the ground,
being careful not to SOW too thick.
Cover with light harrow or brush,
as very little covering is needed.-N.J.

bottom cross piece near the right side,
the upper end slipping back and forth
between the cross pieces that hold the
tops of the two front uprights in
place. This lever is thrown to the
right when open for the animal to
enter. As soon as the head passes 1T
is pushed to the left side and fastened
as tight as required by small iron
pin slipped through the cross pieces
at top back of It.
As soon as the head is fastened a
hand spike is slipped through the cage
back of the animal, and another over
the neck to hold the head down. These
remain in place usually without hold
ing, the operator standing in front
while taking off the horns. The small
est animal having horns, up to bull
weighing 1880 pounds, has been de-
horned in this sized cage. Animals
weighing up 1900 pounds pass right
through the cage when the holding
lever is thrown back against the right
side. Cows heavy in calf and larger an
imals back out of the cage.
The maker of this cage has re-
modelled it three times to get 1t as
described, and has used it nine years.
The first year he dehorned $50; his
work now running from 1000 to 5000
from October through March.
Animals dehorned early in the sea-
son heal quickly because in good flesh.
As an experiment, used saw and clip
pers on seven steers, cutting one horn
off with clippers the other with saw.
The sawed stub healed in one-half
the time required by the clipped. The
latter brushes inside of the horn,
which must decay and come out be-
fore the wound can heal. The OPP
orator we refer to loads the cage
across common gravel box on a
wagon and travels to convenient
points, where the cattle are driven TO
him. He is rapid workman. With
two or three assistants to help drive
and hold he once took horns off 33
head of two-year-o in 81 minutes.
Another time he dehorned 60 head
of 700 pound cattle in 40 minutes. The
cage can be set down at any con-
venient place, at scale pen, opening
of she'd or end of lane. The accom-
panying illustration will give ther read

Admiral Thomas, July 81, 1s43, and
the native flag replaced with i'm
pressive ceremonies" "Ilis course
says the Hawaiian public document al
ready quoted, twas fully approved by
the home government, and certainly
tended to exalt the reputation of his
country for justice and magnanimity
in dealing with inferior races" No
vember 2s, 1s43, England and France
ratified the independence of the
islands and entered into joint agree
ment "never to take possession, eth
er directly or under title of protec-
torate or under any other form, of any
part of the territory of which they
are composed"
But poor Hawaii was still to be the
football of the nations. In 1s4s the
French again meddIed. Their consul
protested against the high duty on
brandy and "the alleged Partially
shown to the Englishlanguage." These
chickering's continued for some time.
In August, 1S40, a French warship en-
tered Honolulu harbor; she was joined
next day by another; ten days later
Admiral de Tromelin sent list of
ten demands to the king, and gave
him only three days in which to com
ply. The demands were refused,
Thereupon de Tromelin landed an
armed force, destroyed n port, con
fiscated the kings yacht, took aboard
the French consul and sailed away.
After more than year of fruitless
negotiation another French consul ar
rived at Honolulu, and at once took
up the meddling role of his predeces-
sor. One result Of his intrigue was
important. Finding that he could not
ballo France by himself, Kameham-
cha III. issued proclamation placing
Hawaii under the protection of the
United States. The legislature rati-
fled the proclamation. Although the
United States declined to accept Ha-
wall, this bold move had the desired
effect, for France dropped her de-
mands.
From this time the political history
of Hawaii is closely associated with
that or the United States. During 1853
and 1854 there was "active agitation in
Honolulu IN favor of annexation to the
United States" At least, so says a
publication of the Hawaiian republic,
which also states: "The king favored
it as refuge from impending dangers.
The missionaries generally opposed it,
fearing that its effects would be injuri-
Gus to the native race" A draft of n
treaty was completed in June, 1854,
after much negotiation between the

NJ. S. Blonde" commanded by Lord
Byron, cousin of the poet, sailed for
Honolulu with their remains.
Long before the dead king was re-
turned to his people formidable in
surrection was crushed at the battle
of Hanapepe in August, 1924. 1t had
broken out in Kauai, and was led by
the son of that last king of Kauai who
had submitted to KamehamehaI, There
was hard fighting, but when Lord
Byron reached Honolulu, in May, 1925,
the kingdom was again at peace. A
brother of the late kingwas proclaimed
ms Kamehameha ILL.,, with the Queen
Kaahumanu, wife of Kamehameha l.,
as regent.
In 1926 the first treaty was con-
tracted between Hawaii and the
United States. In 1927 the first written
code of laws was promulgated. In 1882
the regent died, and in 1888 Kamheham-
cha III. came of age.
The next seven years form a most
important period in the history of
Hawaii. Foreigners seem always to
have been the disturbing element in
the islands, "The principal opposi-
ton to REFORM" says n state docu-
ment, referring to the affairs in 1920,
twas made by foreigners. The re-
gency Of Kaahlmanu was disturbed by
"a depraved class of foreigners" who
resisted the police enqctments. But
foreigners wrought good as well as
evil, and the missionaries Of 1920 were
followed by Roman Catholic fathers in
1927, and by silkmakers and cotton
planters in 1885, The Catholic priests,
however, had been deported through
the influence % native chiefs, in 1892,
and on their attempt to return, in 1887,

to persecution of native converts
English and French warships inter-
fered in protection of the Catholics
and an cdict of federation was pro-
mulgatcd June II, 1890. AS the priests
involved were Frenchmen, France de-
manded an indemnity and treaty
guaranteeing full religious liberty.
France secured the indemnity, the
treaty and also commercial conven-

Facts About the Hawaiian Islands, Over

On July 9TH President McKin-
icy signed the resolutions anneXing
the Hawaiian islands to the United
states. By the same act the resolu-
rtions passed into law.
The troubled career Of Hawaii as
AN Independent power is therefore
practically at an end. So far as Chris
tendon is concerned, it began in 1855,
with the discovery of the islands by
the spaniard, Juan Gaetano; it ends,
IN 1898, with their absorption into the
territory o. the American common
wealth.
The islands, however, were lost for
two centuries after their first dis
covery. For the islands set down

,grees too far east 1t is assumed
chat these were the Hawaiian islands,

Not All beetles Are Bad.

The common ground beetle devours
cutworms in great numbers, and the
soldier bug and the wheel bug are
noted for their predaceous instincts.
They live upon whatever worms, slugs
and insects they can find in the gar
den. Even our wasps are great insect
destroyers, and if we could overcome
our natural prejudice against them we
should find that they deserve to live.
They will not sting one unless cOrnered
or frightened in some way; but they
will destroy slugs and tent caterpillars
by the dozen.

CAPTURING INSECTS.
suspending II Lantern at Night over q
Tub of Water Sometimes Has
Good Results.

BY suspending lantern at night
over a tub of water having it's surface
coated with kerosene, many night fly
ing insects can be destroyed. Among
those that can be caught in this way
are cut worm moths, the clicking
beetle (Which is the mature form Of
the wire worm), and the May beetle
(Which is the mature form Of the white
grub. When these insects became es-
pecially abundant this method of
catching them is worthy of trial. The
objections to it are: (1) that it is the
larvae and not the flying form of these
insects that do serious injury; (2)
few persons are so far-sighted that
they can be persuaded to attack in
sect enemies until they are suffering
from their ravages, and the benefits Of
this method will not be felt until per-
haps the following year; (3) the OBJ
servations of DR.. Otto Lugger show
that insects have generally laid their
egss before they fly much, and only
the male insects of some species fly,
and the females are nearly or quite
wingless. 1t is obvious that in some
cases catching the flying insects will
do little if any good.-Western Plow-

American minister and the Hawaiian
minister of foreign affairs. Against
this treaty both the French and British
ministers protested. The heir apparent
to the throne also opposed it,, and while
the treaty was still pending the king
suddenly died.
His nephew, the enemy of the treaty,
became King KamehamehaTW He was
young man, but did not apparently
possess much energy. His reign was an
uneventful interlude in the stormy sto-
ry of recent Hawaiian history. He was
still only 20 when he was succeeded, in
1863, by his brother, Kamehameha V.
This prince was enlightened and public
spirited On his own authority he
widely extended the suffrage and made
important internal reforms He nego-
tiated treaty of reciprocity with the
United States, but the senate rejected
it. His death ON December II, 1872,
ended the dynasty of the Kamehame-
has.

Reports from south New Jersey
saw that some of the stone roads are
in bad condition. The freeholders,
who have them in charge, are farm
ers, and will not look after them while
busy with farm work, nor employ a
supervisor to care for them. This
will prove an expensive policy, as

cut down the price of pears one-half.
When one has really fine Bartletts,
Anjous and other choice pears Of
large size it is worth the while to
take some care to get them into the
market in as fine shape as possible.
To this end it is often advisable to
follow the fashion of those who send
choice oranges to market-wrapping
each specimen of fruit in tissue pa

chinery in the case of oranges, but
after little practice one can very
quickly cover bushel of fruit, with
the prospect Of being well repaid for
his trouble.-American Agriculturist.

MIL from AilIng Cows.

Cows with sores on their teats or I'D
ders should never be allowed to fur
nish milk for use by humans. 1t is bet
ter to dry them up or to dispose of
them altogether, 1t takes honesty
and principle to do this. 1t is always a
great temptation to allow such ami
mails to continue to contribute to
the supply of milk. If the cow
is to be kept in milk the milk
should be at least thrown away
during the whole period of trouble
with the sores. Milk, being a great
medium of contagion, may carry some
of the worst diseases to the human
family.-Dakota Field and Farm.

The Income from COVE.

The first $25 of the annual income
from COW yields but little or no profit
to the owner over cost of keep; and
it will take 5000 pounds of milk at so
cents a hundred pounds to bring this
sum. If by proper selection and breed
ing one can get a COW that will yield
5000 pounds of milk with but little if
any more expense for food and care,
the extra 5000 pounds will represent
profit. 1t is recognition of this prin-
ciple and action accordingly that
