WHAT THE COW PEA LOOKS LIKE.
ties, and they differ in character from
a compact bush about ~ inches high,
with a single stem. having short
branches, to vines that run like the
vines of sweet potatoes or melon vines.
The vines are sometimes 20 feet long.
The pods are from four to 10 inches
long. The whippoorwill variety APP
pears to be favorite in the north.
Being legume, of course this pea
is exceedingly valuable as fertilizer
On the roots of all leguminous plants
taking them as a class-there are
little heterogeneous, or bacteria,
which take up the free nitrogen, from
the gases of the soil, and nitric
acid is formed, and nitrogen, as we all
must know, is indispensable to plant
growth. These bacteria are found in
the nodules upon the roots. Every
leguminous plant does not have them,
as the reader has probably already
learned from articles that have APP
peared in these columns; and in some
experiments, soil that contains these
heterogeneous has been added to
soil that did not contain them, for the
purpose of inoculating it. So far as
the writer knows there is no evidence
that the plant will not grow as well.
or about as well, without these bac-
terra as with them, but it can be of no
value as a fertilizer. in the usual way
that the roots of legumes are thus
valuable. unless the micro-organisms
are working on the roots. However, it
is so seldom that the roots of the COW
pea are not fully equipped for the per-
formance of their office as a fertil-
izer that we may regard the plant as
practically perfect in this regard. A
farmer in Indiana found it impossible
TO grow clover. He consulted the
writer, and so far as could be seen
there was nothing in the conditions
10 produce the failures. But that is
often the case: the clover will not
grow, and the cause is hidden. He was
advised TO try COW peas. and the re-
suit has been all that could be desired
The peas furnished better hav than
the clover, and improved the fertility
OF the soil just as much. There is a
vast area of land in the country which
is TOO poor to grow clover, but will
grow peas, and it should be fortified
IN this way. But the feeding value of
the vines and peas greatly exceeds
their value as fertilizer. 1t is be-
coming more and more the practice
though contrary to theory-to re-
move the vines for feeding purposes.
and to depend upon the roots for fer
tlllzing the soil. 1t is even claimed
That the roots fertilize as fully as the
whole plant would. This, no doubt.
is a mistake, but we believe that II
does not pay to turn under the vines.
1T IS true, too, it must be confessed
that there is danger in turning under
so much green stuff. Possibly il NAV

suit fails to occur. there must be more

Aliens Fast Trip.

The American bark S. c. Allen ar
rived yesterday morning after making
the passage from San Francisco TO this
port in the remarkably short time Of
twelve days and eleven hours. After
leaving San Francisco the Allen ran
into rough weather with northwesterly
and northerly winds. This lasted for
about four days after which fine wealth
er was encountered until these islands
were sighted. when the weather became
very rough and disagreeable. The Allen
managed 70 get into port before the
American which left San Francisco 4
few days after the windjammer. and
consequently the officers of the vessel
were more than satisfied with the trip
as this was what they had been trying
to accomplish.
The Allen carries about 1900 tons of
general merchandise for local con-
signees and on deck she has a small
load of vegetables and gasoline. She
also brought eighteen head of stock,
ten mules and eight horses. They were
all landed in fine shape. The Allen is

Careless Japanese Drivers.

The carelessness and Incompetence of
the Chinese and Japanese truck-drivers
who crowd the waterfront, especially on
steamer days. was again the cause OF an
accident yesterday: but luckily no dam

cerned.
1t has always been the habit of che
the Oriental truck-drivers to crowd their
rigs into any place where there is the
slightest opening. although they often.
by doing, block the entire traffic This
was what took place at the Kinau wharf
yesterday morning at about 10 O'Clock.

loaded was just passing through the gate

The Department OF Public Works be-
gan work on the reconstruction of the
Inter-Island wharf yesterday. About
twenty-five men were digging a large
trench at the part of the wharf which
adjoins the Oceanic dock. Where the
trench was made a new sea wall will be
built as the old one which is further
makai. has deteriorated to such an eX-
tent that it is now useless. The new
sea wall will extend 200 feet from near
the Oceanic wharf partition to the main
gate. of the Inter-Island wharf where it
will join the old wall. The wall will
be six and a half feet wide al the bot
tom and two feet at the top. 1t is TO
be constructed of boulders and con-
crete. 1t will probably take about three
weeks to complete this job.
1t is also intended 10 rebuild the en-
tire wharf and the shed from the main
gate TO the Oceanic wharf. The old
flooring will be torn out and new mate
rial put in it's place. The wharf will
also be widened to a line drawn from
the makai corner of the Oceanic wharf
so that the line of the wharves will
now be straight. The old shed is to be
torn down and a new shed forty feet
wide will be erected in it's place.
The Inter-Island Company which
leases this wharf from the government.
has advanced the funds necessary to
carry out the changes.
