1t Is OF Importance to this Island that
the truth should be told regarding the
actual conditions here, a nd the oppo. tu-
mites for a white immigration. A
large number of Japanese are coming
20 these Islands, mostly as contract "a
borers, for the nominal purr~~~
tering on the plantations in the sugar
industry, but who subsequently find
their way to the towns of our seaports
and enter into serious competition with
the American and European artisan
and small tradespeople. This Is clearly
The Japanese, unlike inc
Chinese and Portuguese, are not agri-
inclined.
Flowers and Health.
In Bulgaria and in Sweden, where

Plant the roots of cannas in a basket
filed with soil, sinking 1t to the rim In
a vessel holding water. The roots plant
ed pass through the sides OF the basket
and originate an extraordinary luxuri-
ant growth of leaves and flowers. We
desire all the papers in these Islands to
copy our feeble scribbling, the native
papers in particular, as they all love
fruits and flowers. All our friends, and
in particular, know we can
not write, and when we see our scrib-
bling in print, revised, etc, we feel
surprised. But we have been

We know will be of value The only
object we have Is to do what little good
we can In our way.

have frequently been impressed with
the idea that planting forms an es-

Germany the forests are regenerated

natural production is nearly always
by planting or sowing.
