for Help
Lots of it in Honolulu But
Daily Growing
Less.

Backache is one of the first indica-
tions of kidney trouble.
1t is the kidneys first cry for help.
Heed it.
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are
what is wanted.
Are just what overworked kidneys
need.
They strengthen and invigorate the
kidney; help them to do their work
never fail to cure any case of kidney
disease.
Reed the proof from Honolulu oiti-
zen.
Mr.. Charles Comey, of CycIomere
street, this city, one of the many per-
sons who have tried Doan's Backache
Kidney Pills with great advantage, re-
lates his experience thus: IT have been
a hack driver for a number of years
past and this is an occupation in
which, through exposure to weather
and much jumping up and down from
the vehicle, one is particularly liable to
kidney complaint. / suffered myself
from lame back for a long while, and
in my anxiety to get rid of it tried
several things which did not reach the
root of my trouble. An advertisement
acquainted me with what grand work
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills were
doing, and I got some of them at the
HOLSTER Drug Co.'S store. L used thera
and with very much profit, for they re-
iieved my back wonderfully"
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are
for sale by all dealers or sent by mail
on receipt of price, so cents per box,
by the HOLSTER Drug Co., Honolulu,
wholesale agents for the Hawaiian
Islands.
Remember the name Doan's and take
no other.

Sorghum for stock Feeding.


Any farmer who can grow corn sue
cessfully can succeed with sorghum,
and will find it decided addition to
the winter supply Of stock food, al
though those without great deal Of
experience with 1t seem to think it
can be used to advantage only as q
supplement to the pasture. To grow
sorghum successfully the soil must be
put in good condition, broken up deep
and well prepared. Make the seed bed
fine and SOW the seed any time this
month. Grown for hay, the seed is
sown broadcast at the rate of two
bushels per acre and narrowed in, but
1t is better to grow it in rows two or
three feet apart, the latter distance
being preferable, enabling one to cult
waite with the horse. When grown in
rows the culture should be the same
as with corn, and the plot should be
kept free from weeds. Stock of all
kinds eat sorghum readily and 1t will
pay to experiment with n small plot
of it this season. In feeding 1t, as
with all foods that are new to the ami
mails, it should be given in small guam
titles at first until the animals get
used to it.

AMERICA OF TO-DAY.
Vast Increase of the United States
Within the Century.

The America which the new century
sees is strikingly different in area ana
influence from that which the opening
years of the nineteenth century saw. A
hundred years before the Spanish-Amcr-
lean peace treaty was signed in Paris
on Dec. 10, 1898 the United States oc-
cupied comparatively small spot on the
earth's surface. 1t was surrounded on
three sides by powerful and unfriendly
nations. AS at present, its northern
boundary was Canada. Its western line
was the Mississippi river, and its south
crn border was Florida. AT that time
Florida comprised not only the present
State of that name, but also strip Of
territory extending westward to the Mis-
sissippi river, along the southern line of
the present States of Mississippi and Ala
bama, Florida, throughout its entire
length, from the Atlantic to tn Missis-
slppi, belonged to Spain, and Spain held
the whole of the territory west OF that
river.
Thus England was ON the United
States northern border, us at present,
while Spain shut it off from the Gulf of
Mexico and from the vast empire west If
the Mississippi. The American who, a
hundred years age. went down to st.
Augustine. Pensacola. Mobile or New Or
leans. found himself in Spanish territory.
The American who crossed over to st.
Louis or any other point on the western
side of the Mississippi would also find
himself under the Spanish flag. Even
Natchez was held by Spain, contrary to
the treaty of peace between Great Brit
ain and the United States signed in 1888,
until 1T9S. In the latter year Spain
moved her boundary line a short distance
below that city. Moreover, England held
0swego. Niagara, Detroit, Mackinaw
and other points in the United States on
the northern frontier until after the Jay
treaty was signed in 1906, and then it
was exceedingly slow in evacuating those
posts. The United States century ago
had no rights which any of the great ma
tons felt bound to respect.
The imperial dimensions of the United
States to-day make a striking contrast to
its comparative diminutiveness 100 years
ago. By the successive acquisitions of
Louisiana in 1903, Florida in 1910, Texas
in 1916, New Mexico and California in
1S4S. and Alaska in 1867, the area of
the United States Mt the beginning of
1903 was, approximately, 100000
square miles. Then came the annexations

IrrigatinE a Farm Gnrden.

IrrigntiuE n Farm Gnrdeu.
Many farmers feel so sure of success
with artificial watering that they are
putting down artesian wells and in
tend to build reservoirs as soon as pos
sible, the past dry seasons causing
them to realize the necessity of most
constant supply of moisture. Nearly
all the wells are inches in diameter
and cost from 80 to so cents per foot.
The flow amounts to from 10 to So
gallons per minute. One 31a-inch well
that cost 5000 and is 295 feet deep
flows about 1900 gallons per minute,
though the amount has never been ac-
eurately measured. :. IL is thought the
How of some wells near this large one
has diminished and it is possible that
the artesian water supply may be lin
tied.
A few fields nave been flooded or
wet up direct from these wells dur
ing the fall and winter and have pro-
duced the following season % to 80
bushels of wheat to the acre, and other
crops in proportion, while fields not so
treated produced less than half this
amount. Irrigation here is largely con-
fined to gardens, the water in most
cases being used direct from the wells,
but n few farmers have reservoirs
which aid i'll the economical use of the
water, thus giving much better results.
One garden has been irrigated five
years and is producing all kinds of
vegetables in abundance and of fine
quality. A few gardens have been
watered by wind-pumps. This method
gives excellent results, especially where
small reservoir is used. Other gar

Guessing and knowing.

Thousands of farmers have guessed
1t did not pay to feed, and so have let
their cows dry up nearly, destroying all
profit in milk for the entire year. Tn
who read, think and don't guess any
more than they can help have kept
their herds up to the usual standard.
Their verdict is that 1t has paid good
profit to do this. The others are look
ing ahead with gloomy eyes. o, no! It
don't pay to be reading farmer" In
connection with the foregoing the
Dairyman quotes the following as illus.
trating that knowledge is better than
guessing at things: ''The Kansas exper-
iment station at recent test found
that counting wheat at 81 per 100
pounds, cottonseed meal at $150, and
rating butter at II cents per pound, and
placing the value of skim milk against
the hauling, there would be very
handsome profit in the transaction;
therefore, that 1t would pay farmers a
great deal better to purchase cotton
seed meal and increase the amount
both of wheat straw and ground wheat
and thus keep their cows in milk, avoid.

all the evil results which follow

Those who find the best profit in rails
ing the wrinkled varieties of peas viii
be glad to bape the GradIs, shown In
the illustration. Not ouly is the quality
of this variety equal to that of any
wrinkled sort, but it is better than any
of the smooth sorts that are early In
season. The Gradus combines quality
with extra earliness and extreme pro-
ductiyeness. Most of the wrinkled sorts
are rather tender, but this variety may
be planted rs early as any of the
smooth sorts without injury, and IS
said to be the only wrinkled variety
with which this can be done. The
growth of the vine is strong and
healthy. and the bearing qualities are
of the best. The pods are large, hold

AN ARrEsIAN WATER SUPPLY.

dens have been watered by pumping
from streams. This mode of irrigation
must necessarily be limited, as the
amount of water in streams is very
small during Il dry time. In fact, l
have seen it almost dry.
The water is usually run between
the rows of the various crops, some
times between every row, or at most
every third or fourth row. The plan
proposed is to have main bitches, with
several sets of laterals dividing the
fields into squares, varying in size ac-
cording to the slope of the land. In
stead of bitches for the second set of
laterals, back burrows may have to be
substituted IL the fields have much
slope, for the water is too valuable to
permit of waste. The illustration
shows how few "catch' the water
from artesian wells. 1t may be dis.
tributed as best suits the gardener or
