Kalauokalani Hits
Military Very Hard

In the Senate yesterday afternoon,
twenty minutes on the appropriation
for the military. His remarks were
brought about by motion on the part
of Mr.. Carter who wanted both the ma
jority and minority reports on the
items taken UP forthwith.
|, Mr.. Kalauokalani was not antago-
nistic and expressed himself unre-
servedly in favor of the adoption Of
the majority report. calling for the
striking out of all the military items
He then reverted to the time Of the
monarchy and stated that there was all
manner Of criticism against the same
force kept by the King and later, by the
Queen. The present force was three
or four times the number Of that time.
Mr.. kalauokalani said that it was
absolutely wrong to spend any more Of
the peoples money for make-believe
soldiers who could only stand up on
the march when fortified with beer and
the like. The wings of the eagle OF the
United States had spread its winds over
Hawaii and Uncle Sam was equal to
the emergency Of protecting any part
OF American Territory. A force of SOL
diers--real soldiers trained to fight
were stationed in Honolulu. These
would look out for all trouble that any
Porto Ricans. japanese or negroes
might raise.
In closing his remarks. Mr. Kalau-
okalani said that the money wasted
on the useless military and make-be-
lieve soldiers could be more profitably
spent in the employment of more police
officers. After all. these were the men
who had always been sent out to quell
trouble. The soldiers had done moth.

CONSTITUTION AND FLAG.

The decision of the Supreme Court
on the famous insuar cases determin-
ing the status of the island possessions
o. Porto Rico and Hawaii is practically
! to the effect that the Constitution fol-
lows the flag into newly acquired ter
ritory until such time as Congress
enacts laws governing such territory:
Congress has practically absolute pow
er to do what 1t pleases with any terri
tory previous to its admission as q
State in the Union.
The De Lima case which dealt with
the collection of duties on sugar i'm
ported into the United States between
the time of the signing of the Paris
treaty and the enactment of the For
aker law is decided against the conten-
tion of the government. The decision
il signed by Chief Justice Fuller and
Justices Brown, Brewer, Peckham,
Harlan and Gray The dissenting
members were Justices Shiras, Mcken-
ma and White.
This case has direct bearing on the
status of Hawaii during the locally
manufactured transition period" and
tends to reverse every contention Of
the Supreme Court Of Hawaii In declar-
L. tbo Constitution nf tho ITnited
States imperative from the time of the
passage of the Newlands resolution
until the Territorial Organic Act was
In force. Justice Brown in the course
OF the decision, and speaking of the
contention that nannexed territory re-
mains foreign" until Congress has
acted. says:
This theory also presupposes that
territory may be held indefinitely by
the United States; that 1t may be treat
ed in every particular, except for Ia.
riff purposes, as domestic territory;
that laws may be enacted and enforced
by officers of the United States sent
there for that purpose; that insurrec-
tlons may be suppressed, wars carried
on, revenues collected, taxes imposed
In short, that everything may be done
which a government can do within Its
own boundaries, and yet that the ter
ritory shall remain foreign country;
that this state OF things may continue
for years, for a century even, but that
unless Congress enacts otherwise, II
still remains a foreign country. Tt
hold that this can be done, as "A matter
OF law, we deem to be PURE JUDICIAL
LEGISLATION. We lind no warrant
for 1t in the Constitution or in the pow
ers conferred upon this Court. 1t Ii

cost of the dry postal gum is about
six cents per pound, and thus the daily
cost to the Government of gum for
stamps is about S4S.
Down In the basement of the bureau
there are three big steam iacketed
kettles of the capacity of 100 gallons
each where the gum IL made by an
established formula. This is done by
mixing the dry gum with water. and
by carefully boiling it until the gum
is cooked. The kettles are exceeding
ly clean. and the boiling must be at
just the proper degree. After the
gum is boiled II IL pumped TO u
settling tank. where II is strained and
reduced to the proper specific gravity.
II is next pumped up four stories to
the stamp cumming room. where 1t IL
received and again strained into
lnrge tank fifteen feet above the floor.
Another test is then made for tenn

gum Is ready to be conveyed by pipes

these machines in operation. They
were run night and day to meet the
emergency, and gummed 10000
sheets or 4l,000,000 stamps, every
twenty-four hours. This large number
OF stamps furnished Uncle Sam with
some of the sinews of war during those
trying times. The average consump-
tion of ordinary postage stamps at
this time is about 100000 day.

The Sand Road.

Shade harms loan CT clay road,
but improves q road of sand or broken
stone. since 1t prevents the evapora-
ton of the moisture from the road
bed. Therefore a sand road can be
permanently improved by planting
trees so as to shade the Travelled way.
They will prevent. in part. the drying
effect Of the winds, as well as inter
cept the rays OF the sun.
A road on pure sand is improved
temporarily by covering 1t with thin
layer of any vegetable fibre, as de-
caying leaves, straw marsh hay, waste
from sorghum mills (begasse), fibrous
or strlng-like shavlngs, etc. This
fihrcus material soon becomes incor-
porated with the sand and decreases
its mobility. The vegetable matter
decays and wears out, and conse-
Quently the effect is comparatively
temporary. The length of time such
expedients viii last depends upon the
climate and the amount OF travel.
Sand roads improved with three to
four inches of shredded wood (excei-
sior) have kept In reasonable condi-
tion for year or two.
The only thorough and permanent
Improvement possible for sand road
Is to add layer OF tough clay aud In
corporate II with the sand. This is ex-
pensive at best. and II is difficult to get
the sand and Clay thoroughly incor-
porated In the right proportions.

accompanying illustration, although
this may be varied TO accommodate
whatever style Of house one happens
TO have.
The point Of view is to have the
shed SO situnted that when the sun Is
shining II may derive all the benefit
possible from Its rays. 1t should
therefore occupy the south side OF the
house, as indicated In the picture-the
more 80 for the reason that It Is then
out OF reach, as near as can be, of
the cold northwest winds.
Now. to build this form of scratch
ing-shed erect In the first place n
simple. ordinary shed, with good
roof; then, to exclude animals OF prey
and the like which may be prowling
around even in the daytime, cover the
three open sides from the exterior
with good wire netting, extending it
from the ground or base boards clear
to the top. This accomplished, con-
struct on the inside cotton-cloth screen
doors to match the netting, and have
them hinged at the top so that they
can be turned UP to the ceiling when
the weather is suitable.
When the weather is very stormy,
very cold or exceedingly clustering.
the doors may be dropped and the
fowls left to enjoy their gymnasium"
with scarcely any Inconvenience at
all. the cloth admitting light sufficient
for them to execute the most "four'
antics imaginable. On warm, sunny
days. however, the curtains may be
raised, as likewise they may in sum-
mer, and the poultry have frolicking
place well ventilated and pleasant in
every respect This Is of decided ad-
vantage where fowls have TO be con-
fined more or less all the year. as is
generally the case in and about vii
lagos.
One thing more. To realize good
results from such a shed a quantity
of straw, hay or the like should occupy
il (this to be replaced with fresh
every once In while), and each morn

wheat, barley. buckwheat or even

Horse BIlnkers Cause sufrsrlng,

Bllnkers cause great suffering. God
has given horses eyes to see. and man.
without thought, has half blinded
them. The unsupported idea has been
that blinkers prevent shying, but
horses are more likely to shy when
half blinded than when they have full
sight. AS proof of my opinion, not
one OF the thousands of army horses
has bllnkers, and without giving you
actual figures OF each company, l
have reports from the following rail.
way companies: The Great Northern,
London aud Northwestern, Great Gen.
tral, Great Western. London. Brighton
and South Coast, Great Eastern and
Midland, who have now upward of
10000 horses working without blink
err. the North London h'amwnys 1000
and carriers and others 10000, up,
ward OF 10000. These horses are now
working In London freed from tor
inent why not the rest? There is
consensus Of opinion that horses look.
work aud feed better without blinkers.

any Inconvenience or OF any satisfac-
Tory reason why bllnkeis should be

The Summer Diet of Chickens.

There is no perfect summer or win
ter food for chickens, but with little
ingenuity in mixing their diet we can
supply them with what may be called
perfect food. A good deal depends
upon the nature of the chickens and
fowls in regard to the food, and also
upon the season of the year. While
fair supply of corn may do for
winter feeding, it could hardly be
recommended for summer feeding. 1t
is altogether too fattening and heat
ing. On the other hand little rice Is
good for the fowls in summer. and
totally unsuitable for winter. There
Is practically no heating clements in
rice, and this Is what we need for
summer feeding, food that will nonr-
ish without heating.
Now when we feed summer or
winter for eggs we must consider food
from different standpoint. We need
to supply the fowls with egg -produc
ing material, and for the time we
must consider the relative importance
of heating and non-heating foods much
less than formerly. Usually, however
foods that make flesh and fat do not
contribute to the egg-producing abili-
ties of the hens. The foods adapted
to the latter are usually in class by
themselves. In addition to them we
need consider only such other foods
necessary to repair the daily waste
and loss of heat and fat In cold
weather the loss of the latter is much
greater than in summer, and conse-
quently the proportion of these foods
must be far larger. -~.
Both fowls and chickens Indicate
what they most need If turned loose.
They will pick of grains, seeds, worms
slugs and all sorts of natural foods.
The more of this natural food they
can secure the better will il be for
them. Chickens that can forage for
n living in summer will always be
healthy and robust. But we must not
forget that very often they fail to
secure enough to keep them in good
growing condition. After they have
foraged for the day they need addi-
tional food But in the summer this
food should not be corn, which so
many think necessary. A little, and
a very little at that, will suffice. The
evening meal would be much better
for the poultry IL composed of great
variety Of seeds, grains, rice, scraps
from the table, ground fresh bones,
grit. oats, barley and so on. Make
such an evening meal as varied In its
composition as possible, adding as few
fat-producing foods as the case will
warrant. Feed the poultry freely with
this mixture every night, giving them
all they will eat up clean. In the
morning turn them loose to forage
again, feeding them artificial food only
when night comes again. or course,
where there are many colonies kept.
the foraging grounds will be more
limited, and the birds win have to re-
ceive more artificial foods.-Annie O.
Webster, in American Cultiyator.
