GROWING OF TREES.
A System Which Has Proved of Much
Benefit,

0NhSAls
On our up-to-date FARM we sept ou'
early to do what little we could toward
keeping the wooded part of the place in
tact. We began by setting out few
trees every spring. The first were set
some twelve years ago. along the road
side, and today they are fine trees, large
enough to cast quite a shadow. Some of
those near the house look beautiful now.
They are all sugar naples These grow
Il little slower than any other, perhaps.
but they are the best trees for shade that
We have.
Then, too, when we have been clearing
up brush lots in the pastures we have
left every hard maple and ash and chest
nut. 1t has been understood that every
such tree was sacred. No destroying AK
was to be touched to it, unless to trim it
up and make 1t more beautiful. The re-
suit Is We have a nice row of naples
along the highway and about the house.
They are Il source of pleasure to us all.
Not only that, they do a little toward
keeping the climate of our country health
full and lessen the danger from floods.
Every farmer ought to DO something in
this direction. If he cuts down a tree he
ought to set out another one Work he

All right. Bcncfactors know they never

farmers are the worlds greatest benefae-
tors. They ought not to stay their hands
from planting trees that others may sit
under their shadow.-Up-to-Date Farm

OLAF OMSTEAD
WANTS HIS HORSE
Bankrupt Says Trustee Has Taken
Animal Which lie Gave
TO His Wife.

Olaf Omstead and a gray horse he
bought for his wife are likely to cause
all sorts of trouble in the United states
court. Olaf filed a petition in bank
ruptcy a number of months ago and
was duly adjudged a bankrupt. He
lived in Hi1o at that time. and j. w.
Mason was appointed trustee of the
estate, to realize all he could and pay
the debts which Omstead had contract
ed in his business career.
Mr.. Mason gathered all the available
assets and then looked for more.
Among other things he saw Olaf driv-
ing rather good looking gray horse,
but when he attempted to take posses
sion on behalf of the creditors, the
bankrupt raised many objections. The
horse he explained was the property of
his wife; he had purchased the animal
and presented it to Mrs Omstead with
his compliments. To have his gift
taken away did not suit him bit, and
he resisted all efforts on the part of
Mason to obtain possession of the gray.
The trustee was not to be so easily
put off and he brought suit for recov-
cry of the animal before Magistrate
Hapai in Hilo, with the result that he
was given judgment for the horse
Yesterday Omstead applied to Judge
ESteo to have the horse declared q part
of the exempt assets of the estate. He
filed a lengthy petition citing the facts
above stated, and also that he had
appealed from the judgment against
MIN. Since then, however, Omstead de-
clared, Judge Little has decided that
there was no appeal to a circuit judge
at chambers, and he consequently was
powerless to prevent the horse from
being taken from his wife. In an affi-
davit Omstead declares that he bought
the animal from Albert Horner for $50
a long time before he became bankrupt
and presented it TO mis- wife. He alleged
that it was exempt from execution for
MS own debts, and asks the court to
50 declare it. His attorney files an affi-
davis also, in which it is set out that
Judge Little is absent from Hilo and
that an appeal to him would do no
good. The matter will probably be
heard by Judge Estee next week.

PLANS FOR CARING
FOR POLO CROWDS
Special Arrangements Made for
Their Conveyance and
Comfort.

Every arrangement possible has been
made for the safety and accommodation
of the people who will witness the
championship polo game this afternoon.
sOmnibuses have been secured to run
between the end of the Rapid Transit
and Tramways line and the Park, and
the seating capacity has been increased
for the afternoon.
There will be squad of police on
hand to watch over the carriages and
see that there are no accidents and as
well to overlook the placing of vehicles
along the fences of the park. 1t is ex-
pected that there will be forty or fifty
more carriages around the field than
there were on Thursday, and it will be
necessary that every possible economy
be used in the distribution of the space,
so that all may be accommodated.
There. will be a number of parties in
the park, one of the most prominent
perhaps being a band of rooters for the
Oahu team. the party being made up
of the members of the Punahou football
team. Inc team goes OUT DIS IHS SueSlS
of Frank Armstrong, the entertainment
having been promised long ago, and the
occasion being planned as merrymak-
ing afternoon.
1t is probable that Immediately pre-
ceding the game there will be parade
of the ponies which have been seen in
the matches of the week. There are
now more than fifty of the best ponies
in the islands in the city and it is hoped
that the teams will turn them out, so
that the people may have an oDpor-
tunity to see the various animals.
In case the rain renders the field i'm
possible for the game arrangements
have been made so that the central
telephone office will be informed and in
turn will notify all inquirers if the
game has been postponed. If the match
cannot be played today it may be
brought off on Monday. The weather Of
the past week has indicated the mis-
take of placing the championship game
at this season and it is probable that
in the future the tournaments will be
brought off earlier in the year, as is
done in other parts of the world.

A Lel-Aloha of Hawaii,

Hawaii, the first poem in Miss
Paris little book, which has already
been printed in the Advertiser, is full
of the tenderness, the delicacy and the
tropical atmosphere that characterize
the other poems in the booklet. 1t will
probably make the widest appeal of
any of the poems-for it's triumph OF
beautiful suggestions, but we cannot
be insensible TO the charm of the other
nature songs: ITO the lima, - ITO the
Chelo," and The Four-o-Clock;" nor
to the looking backward-and forward
in Our Flag nor to the loyalty,
pathos and musical quality Of the three
other poems, commemorative Of royal
dead. In the poem To Kspiolani,
Miss Paris has struck her highest note,
ard for this alone the book is well
worth reading-and owning.

the Islands and see for themselves what
he tells about.
large audience greeted Mr.. Erwin
last evening in the parish house. The
audience first viewed the Capitol at
Washington, many slides showing ex-
terror and interior views, particulariz-
ing the Senate and House and the clas-
sic mould of the whole magnificent
structure; then down Pennsylvania
avenue to the Treasury, White House,
Army and Navy building, Postoffice,
ington Monument, Smithsonian Insti-
tuition. The statues of the capital city
were shown, the parks, famous houses,
portraits, scenery in the vicinity of the
city, inaugurations and inaugural pa
rades, and several excellent views of
Mt. Vernon and Arlington. Through
out the display of pictures E-r. Erwin
carried on his conversational explana-
tion of each one in the panorama, end
ing the lecture with picture OF the
Old Glory and the words and music Of
My Country Tis of Thee, the audience
rising and singing.
The hope is widely expressed that Mr..
Erwin may be induced to give his val
liable lecture on Washington at the Ha-
waiian hotel on Monday evening as
originally planned, adding to it his
views of Hawaii. The public at large
would be benefited by attending and
watching the panorama of the great
national capital.

Discuss Chinese Labor.

Members of the Builders and TIE aders
Exchange last evening discussed the
question of the attitude of that body
in relation to restricted Chinese iumi-

communication from the Merchants
Association by resolution it was decid-
ed that the action should be kept secret
until communicated 10 the merchants
body.
