sideration of the bill to create a perma-
nent census office. Mr.. Hopkins, in sup

Law on Selling Affected Fruit.

State commissioner of horticulture A..
Van Holderbeke has sent out the follow
ing notice to be posted in the fruit dis
tricts Of the state:
For many years successful fruit grow
ers have proved that through careful
spraying and care, they have produced
fruit entirely free from insect pest.
There exists horticultural law in the
State of Washington which reads as
follows:
section 13.-Any person or persons
who shall bring into the state, sell, offer
for sale, distribute or give away fruit
trees, plants shrubs, fruit or other ma
terial infested with any kind of insect
pests injurious to fruit, fruit trees or
plants, shall be guilty OF misdemeanor,
and upon conviction thereof shall he
punished by fine of not less than
twenty-five dollars ($25) nor more than
two hundred dollars 5000, or by inn
prisonment in the county Jail not less
than sixty days nor more than one year ::
Provided, That for each repeated offense
the person or persons convicted, as afore-
said, may be punished by fine of one
hundred to two hundred dollars ($100 to
5000, or by imprisonment not to exceed
two years.
Fruit badly infected with San Jose
scale, Oyster Scale, Goblin Moth and
Peach Twig Borer will be subject to
seizure by the inspector and the owner
thereof may be liable to prosecution.
The intention of the law is to protect
the fruit industry of the state, stop the
spreading of pests and diseases, and pre-
vent one fruit grower from imposing up
on another.
1t is the duty of the county inspector
to inforce this section of the law in his
county. A. VAN HoLDERBEKE,

OIL CARRIER Is
NOW AT KAHULUI
Maiden Voyage Of Fuller on
Carrying 10000 Barrels
of OIL.

The oil tank vessel Fullerton on her
maiden voyage as a carrier of fuel oil
in bulk arrived at Kahului last Satur-
day after a trip lasting nineteen days
from San Francisco. The ~barkentine,
which was specially built for this trade,
has q. cargo of $4,000 barrels of oil for
the Kihei plantation but this has to be
discharged into the oil tanks at Kahului
and then transported by rail to the
plantation as the Fullerton has not yet
secured the thousand feet Of hose that
would be necessary in order to unload
the vessel at Kihei.
This hose will be secured later and
the next time the Fullerton comes to
the islands she can discharge at the
plantation itself.
The coming of the Fullerton mark;
the opening OF the campaign in the isl.
ands for oil as a fuel against coal an6
also presents for the first time the
novelty of a sailing vessel carrying OF
in bulk. The Fullerton@has twenty
-four water-tight compartments in hel
hold, each one of them being capable
of holding a thousand barrels of oil
Sixteen are used for the carrying o
oil and the remaining ten for water a:
additional ballast. The vessels entire
cargo can be discharged in ffteeI
hours.

DROUGHT ON THE
OPAL FIELDS
Rich Town of White Cliffs
May Have to Be
Deser ed.

The Oceanic liner Ventura from the
Colonies yesterday brings reports that
h drought in Australia has not been
completely broken IN although there
has been considerable rain of late.
mo one knows when it will rain"
iocularly remarked a passenger. The
government of each of the Australian
states is working to meet the hard
times half way. But out of the Aus
tralian desert there comes a story by
way of the steamer in which there is
a great plot for a modern novelist to
work upon. The people of the rich
White Cliffs opal mining region may
have to move no water can be
secured for them.
White Cliff is the name given to a
hamlet situated way back in the Aus
tralian desert. Its only industry is opal
mining. All the land in the region is
covered with sand. But underneath
this crop of the desert and further un-
derneath the rough layer Of shell opal
which is to be found within a few feet
of the surface there are rich that
have been worked for years and which
produce an enormous quantity of the
finest opals found in the world today.
Two thousand people live in White
! Cliffs and are engaged in opal mining,
The government of the state of New
South Wales is at present supplying the
town with water which is carted for a
distance of nearly thirty miles and
costs the government the tidy sum OF
forty pounds sterling or about 5000 a
day. This service had been kept III
for some time but when the mail left
matters had got so bad that the gov
eminent had given the people of the
town notice that the outside supply was
serving out and that unless rain fell
the opal miners would have to move
to the banks of the River Darling some
distance 1--WE and remain there until
rain came 1t is hard for one tc

that because of lack of water he mus
