DEVELOP. FAIRS.

If the display made by the merchants
on Saturday night called forth COM
mendation, so certainly did the display
made by the growers of fruit vegeta-
bles and flowers, call forth the, 'enco-
miums of all who saw them. Collected
together the products of the gardens
and small plantations are very salts
factory indeed, and show what is being
done in the line Of horticultural culti-
walton. Some of these products have
been grown purely for home use and
not for sale, but it is satisfactory 70
see that some of the products are real
ly in the line of the minor industries
and are raised for profit The farming
displays of the Wahiawa Colony Of
Oahu, and of the Bucholtz plantation of
Kona, Hawaii, were especially notice
able. Both showed that with intelli-
gent work, with patient industry, with
the light of knowledge of soils and Of
the elements of agriculture, a success
can be made of small farming, and that
there is future for the homesteads,
if there is staple prosperity to help him
along.
1t must be remembered that all this
small farming work is dependent upon
the prosperity of the staple product.
If that is unsuccessful the small farm
ing proposition Will fall to the ground.
That IS what men of the caliber Of the
a
understand. If there is to be success
with small farming, there must be
population to consume the products
many of which are perishable Of
course there will be some goods which
the farmers win export as timed pine
apples, jams, Jelhes, and fruit in the
natural state, as bananas. But the lat
ter meet with strong competition from
Southern California.
The good done by a fair of the kind
which is now going on is very great. 1t
arouses emulation and it shows W. at
can be done. To win prizes requires
no large garden, but the product of the
garden requires personal care. In
shows such as this, elsewhere, prizes
are carried off year by year by the
owners Of small plots of land, while the
owners Of large gardens, and who spend
considerable SUMS in cultivation are
unable to compete with the specialists,
who only give their work and their
time.
We can all see the advantage Of these
fairs, what we want TO do Is 10 make
them popular, Fairs Of the kind which
is now taking place, should be held not
only in the capital city, but should oe
encouraged all over the Islands. Since
our roads have been improved the
means of transport are much better
than they used TO, be- formerly ana it

When King Edward was supposed to

Of mourning; when he was Frustrated

the old picture of two "Whiteboys"

ers have been doing very well, and
there seemed very brilliant prospects
before them, when down came the
floods and destroyed some of the best
crops ever seen. over $5,OOO,OOO worth
of property has been whirled away,
and there are many who will be utter
ly ruined by the catastrophe. In Great
Britain the farmer is also in a bad
way, in consequence of the weather he
has practically no crops at all. Look
ing at all this, we ought t9 be thankful
that we live under such favorable
skies, but the nature of man is ever
ungrateful, and we do our full share of
grumbling

is very easy matter to transport the
exhibits from the radius of many
miles. Such a fair should be held in
Hilo, in some central place in the l<o-
mas, of Hawaii; Maui could hold hers
at Waikiki, at Haiku, at Paia, and
many others equally central Kauai
could command the Island products
from Lihue, the distances from Hanalci
at one end to Mana at the other being
about equal. Though the Honolulu
people like very much to have such a
fair held here, 1t is proper to recognize
that there are other centers where sim
liar gatherings should be held.
Another consideration is the matter
of prizes. Besides diplomas and med
ais, which latter it is to be hoped will
appear next year, there should be
money prizes. In this way a larger
class of small horticulturalists will be
called forward. Going over the list of
the exhibitors it is evident that the
Fair has not reached all that it should
The majority of exhibits have been
made by people of means or by institu-
tions like Kamehameha or Lahaina-
luna.
What we want to see is the small
householder attracted. The Portuguese
ought to have contributed some inter-
esting specimens. Grapes should have
come from the slopes of PunchbowI so
should figs, and there ought to have
been specimen vegetables and bouquets
Of flowers from the same source. The
Hawaiian supplied some handsome leis,
but there should have been a greater
variety from this source, and there
should have been exhibits from some
of the small farms and plots cultivat-
ed in and around Honolulu by Ha-
waiians.
This is no criticism of the Fair, it
merely points out a direction in which
the Fair can do good and arouse emu
lation and interest. The idea that only
people of means should compete is one
that should be eradicated. To do this
will require personal work among the
! class of cultivators who grow fruit for
| profit, and will also require the offer OF
pecuniary rewards.
There are probably more beautiful
lunches of grapes raised on Punchbowl
than come from the well kept vines of
/ Moanalua. But the Punchbowl grower
| can get q couple of dollars for his fruit
which is a matter of greater impOr-
lance to him than a diploma whether
in colors or not. But if he can get five
dollars, or even three dollars for his
prize, he will be repaid for his display
This is a sordid way of looking at the
at the end of the show there could b,
a sale Of such products it would alsc
be satisfactory to this class of exhi
bitors.
AS to the scope of the show it Nigh
be very much larger. Dairy product
should he added, so should poultry, an
it would astonish many of our peopl
to see what varieties we have in thi
direction, there should be a section TO
domestic animals and so forth. Tha
a step in the right direction has beei
again taken is certain. 1t remains
however, to make it permanent, and t,
enlarge it's scope. The Commissioner o
Agriculture has taken up the worl
well, he needs to give special attention
to the fostering and growth of the idea
during the coming months.

Human nature is a queer compound of
