The accomplishment of this little colony
fas evidenced that the old idea that only
special, narrow areas We're suitable to
garden culture in Hawaii was a miseon-
ccption.
Instances like the vegetable garden on
Beretania street mentioned above tbs,
Davis and Gomez gardens at Punahou
the Damon farm at Moanalua and the
i4orner gardens on Hawaii all have
shown that proper practice brings sue
cess almost everywhere. Such practice
coupled with intelligent planning, yields
the great variety of delicious products
pc ssible in a tropical climate and means
big returns in money.
This immense advantage of Hawaii
the perennial harvest-plaiily favors the
dcN elopment of small farms of mixed hus-
baEdry. as well as the great plantations
devoted to sugar, rice and coffee Small
farms for the production of diversified
agriculture are an end most desirable of
attainment and on their existence the fu-
ture of these Islands depends.

and cooperation. Adjoining the Wahawa
settlement on the fertile plains of Waia-
lnae-uka extending from the top of the
kaala to the top of the Koolau ridge, a
distance of fifteen miles, both branches
of the Kaukanohua streams form a juno

eminent but no doubt Sam Parker
Prince David, or your humble servant, If
elected to Congress- might induce Uncle
Sam to divide the tract into homestead
lots of forty acres each.
Along the plains the land is well adapt
ed to diversified agriculture, and on the
mountain sides to Koolau ridge Is well
suited to tropical horticulture, such as
rubber, kola nut, citrus fruits, etc. In a
rubber country man who has ten acres
in rubber is considered to have an income
for life. We have demonstrated that
rubber will grow in Hawaii.
This forest of the Koolau mountain is
the only one we have on Oahu, and on
it are thousands of koa trees sixty to
eighty feet high with wild banana
patches here and there larger than the
Capitol grounds. 1t is hoped that the
Governor will not allow private parties
Or corporations TO divert the watercourse

certainly every reason to believe that the
day of the small farm and the intelligent
white farmer is near at hand
Some months ago the Hawaiian Terri
tcrial Agricultural Society was organized
on the ashes of an older agricultural as
Isooiation, and it is perhaps to this group
OF energetic men that Hawaii must look
for ways and means for the speedy estab-
lishment and protection of the small
farm. The society is progressing, but ow-
ing to the absence of several of those
most deeply Interested in It's control, a
meeting In the past few weeks has been
prevented.
/ The society Is gaining in membership
right along and efforts are being made to
bring the people of the other Islands into
line and to form a united association for
mutual help.
Allan Herbert, than whom Hawaii has
no greater authority or more unselfish
guide in agriculture, was asked by an Ad-
vertiser representative yesterday if he
thought small industries of this sort would
pay, and, if so, to give his reasons for
such a belief
made the experiment." said Mr.. Herbert,
ito see how much desirable food may be
procured from small acreage in Hawaii
ard what large profits may be attained
by the industrious and Intelligent cultiva-
tor.
