Col John r Baker proposes TO Law

By the growing of vegetables aud
fruits on an 1.SQ0-acre farm in Ha
vail. The possibilities of these IslaEGs
as producers OF fruits and vegetables
are hardly known as yet. Even now
we see the possibilities OF sl-.,g;,e--
ries in the little ones raised Dy the
Chinese. With improved varieties
properly cultivated in this country OF
perpetual summer with oft repeated
showers, we ought TO produce the fin
est strawberries in the world and pro-
duce them every month in the year.
No better rhubarb or pieplant can be
grown anywhere than in Hawaii and
il can be grown here so as to be mar
keted in San Francisco and as far east
as Chicago in mid-winter. Tomatoes,
asparagus, green corn, peaches and
other products OF the temperate zone
can be successfully grown in Hawaii
at immense profits. The Republican
congratulates Colonel Baker on his
foresight in purchasing land for grow
ing garden truck His will be the
most valuable farm products in Ha-
wall in very few years.

QUEER FACTS ABOUT coLoRs.

Many deadly poisons are blue in col
or, such as bluestone or the deadly
nightshade flower. The color stands in
our slang for everything miserable and
depressing.
Sunlight is bundle of rays of light
red, orange, yellow, green, blue, in
digo and violet all mixed together.
The mixture of all colors is white
light, the absence of all colors is utter
darkness.
Eeach kind of light has its own spe-
cial uses. The red rays of light make
the leaves of the trees to grow, and
hasten all rotting and decay. More
over, if you cut off the red rays plants
will grow with golden brown leaves
instead of green.
Blue light has curious effect on
plants. They will neither grow nor
die; they languish, and yet remain
alive. The blue makes them sleep.
The effect is exactly that of moonlight
and starlight, when all plants take
their natural rest.
Under red glass nearly all plants
grow four times as quickly as under
white light, grow to four times their
usual height, and throw out a fine dis
play of green leaves. This is clear
proof that the red rays of sunlight
cause the green leaves to grow.
The sea is blue because the water re.
fleets the blue rays of light, but shall
low seas are green because the blue
light is mixed with the yellow retiec'
tions from sand and stones at the bot
tom. In this green light of shallow
water all seaweeds grow, and for want
of the red rays they have golden anc
| tawny leaves. Green and red seaweed.
are the exception, and blue seaweeds
are as rare as blue leaves
