was unannounced, and the end came
through hamilton. 1t is understood
there will be proceedings on the part

close under debts owed him, so as to
wipe out the stock of those who trust
ingly invested with him.
Before the Republican was decently
buried the staff had gone to the Bull

growth of forage plants. THE produc-

land their use upon the lands where
they are grown, becomes, then, one OF
the best agricultural practices. But IN
growing and feeding the forage crops,
as in ali other branches of farm indus
try, it is necessary to use those plants,
which will give the greatest returns for
the least given outlay in the shape of
fertilizing elements removed from the
SOIL
The most valuable and important
plant food is nitrogen according to Mr..
Smith, and 1eguminous crops are there
fore the best for cultivation. Alfalfa,
beans, etc, are the most valuable of
this sort. Closing the paper, Mr.. Van
Dine read: There is opportunity for
great saving by American farmers,
and hence a greater profit, if legumin-
Gus forage crops can be extensively
substituted for those of less feeding
and fertilizing value. There are le-
guminous crops which yield as heav
lily as the better hay grasses and which
require no greater care and attention.
There is as wide a range of varieties
adapted to all the varying conditions

beans, the cost of producing pork, beef,

BASKETBALL
FOR HILO GIRLS

HILO, Jan. 23.-Through the efforts
was the champion basket ball player
in the Oakland High School, Hilo is to
have basket ball added to the list of
athletic games. Miss Cheek has been
persistent in agitating the subject
among Eilo young ladies, until now
material enough has been obtained to
assure complete success. AS a coach
in basket ball Miss Cheek has few
equals ons the Coast, and the game as
played in HiIo Will be according to
Hoyle Several practice games have
already been played at Kainihi, Mr..
c. E. Richardson's beach home. The
special merits of the respective players
will soon be ascertained, uniforms will
be purchased, and the people hope soon
to have the pleasure of witnessing
game in public. Two lineups have
been formed, with Miss Cheek captain
of one, and Miss Elvira Richardson
captain of the other.
Miss Cheeks supporters are Misses
Washburn, Frank Elton, Ellen Lyman,
Lilinoi Hapai, Neumann, Deyo, Maude
Hansen, and Mrs. Marsh.
Miss Richardson will command a
team composed of the following: Mrs.
Schoen, Mrs. Lewis, Misses Severance,
Lewis, Lycan, Elton, Pomeroy and
Deyo.
The game of basket ball is one of
the leading athletic sports in American
colleges and universities, and is now
the vogue at Honolulu. Practice games
are held three times a week at Kali
nihi.

FUTURE PLANS.
1t was decided at the meeting to hold
an institute every three months, the
place of meeting to be chosen by the
President. At the next meeting defin-
lite papers will be read along lines to
be announced later. The financial side
of the institute Is not to be considered
for the present, but this VIII also be
taken up soon, and an effort will be
made to extend the work as much and
as rapidly as possible. The Wahiawa
farmers will doubtless prepare to par
ticipate in the agricultural fair to be
held in the drill shed on July and an
institute will be held in Honolulu at
that time.
