than it is to-day, Angora meat will

rich and poor epicure a taste Of
meat which, to the writer, is indis-
tinguishable from that of the deer.

TALK ABOUT HORSES.
Raising of Hish-CIass stock Depends
Largely ON Climate and GeoIog-
icaI Conditions.

Those states which have rolling
lands, with large amounts Of lime
stone in their soils, with short, sweet
grasses and pure water, are the ones
which have led in the production of
high class horses The Morgan FAM
lily was natural product of Yer
mont, and the sound feet, clean bone,
and excellent lungs were the sure
result Of the natural conditions UNI
der which this family Of the horse
were raised. 1t required good feet
to travel over the hard stony soil,
and good lungs to travel all day up
and down these steep hills. These
conditions eliminated all animals of
too great weight, with soft bone, or
poor feet, and by the law Of naturaT
selection they became extinct in that
state through discrimination against
them in breeding and expectation.
1t is the same with the American
trotter and the thoroughbred. New
York and Kentucky have been rec-
ognized ais the natural home of the
trotter, and Kentucky and Tennessee
as that OF the thoroughbred. Nat
ural conditions had more to do with
this than the enterprise of breeders,
for as much enterprise can be found
among breeds in other states. We
should never select horses raised on
fat lowlands, even if they had great
err growth and weight than those
raised under the conditions referred
To above. Horses raised on corn land

When it is desired to use ladder
where there is any possibility Of its
slipping. as for instance upon a smooth
barn floor, it should be SO constructed
that it will hold. A pair of sharp
spikes properly driven into the lower
end will prevent its slipping, and is
perhaps the simplest method, but
often this is not desirable, as such a

The scientists, for the nourishment

plant food from the atmosphere at a
very cheap rate, and employ it for
making the soil more fertile. Now, it
is reported from Paris that Prof: lie
Bon, the weil-known scientist, has
made discovery, which is expected to
revolutionize the chemical science Of
the world. BY a new method Of resoly-
ing water into its component parts, he
claims to be able to procure indefinite
quantities of hydrogen and oxygen at
an insignificant expense, while the
very process itself creates an energy,
which can be substituted for oxidation

CHEMISTS
COMBINE
They Will Have Uniform
Plan of Sugar
Tests.

"Tho Hawaiian Sugar Chemists As
sociurou," which has for us purpose
uniformity In dealing with the sugar
crop az the lslanrs, was formed at a
meeting Of chemists OF the various
plantations, held on Tuesday. This or
gani2atiun was planned over "A month
ago at 4 preliminary meeting of the
chemists OF oahu. which included not
only those OF the plantations, but the
chemists who are engaged In other eX-
perimoutal work
Al the meeting OF the Hawaiian Sug-
ar Planters Association last week the
matter of uniformity of chemical meth
DDS i'm dealing with cane was discussed,
and it was decided that an association
Of the chemists, by which all would
work toward "A uniform plan, would be
of great benefit in providing a general
outline by which all plantation work
might be guided. The organization, as
formed. is not antagonistic to the plan
tiers interests in any way, the union
being not so much for the protection of
the chemists as for the benefit of the
plantations
The meeting for organization was held
in the rooms of the Hawaiian Sugar
Planters Association and the twenty
two chemists were enrolled at that
time, most of them from oahu.
The following were the officers elect
ed FOR the ensuing year:
President, 6. f. Eckart
Vice president, j. g. Penny.
Secretary and Treasurer, Edmund c.
81 prey.
he executive committee consists of
Il above named officers and =. A. q.
Messchaert oahu; w. McQuaid, Ha-
wall; Geo. IL. Baldwin, Maui A. Fries,
Kauai.
The object of the association is the
study of sugar chemistry and the meth
DDS Of analysis used in effecting chem
ical control of sugar house work with
the aim Of arriving at uniformity both
of methods and statements of results.
The work of investigation necessary
in order to arrive at uniformity of
methods Is to be conducted by commit
tees appointed by the president. Much
Of this work will take some time but
the committee on extraction expects to
report within two weeks and upon this
report the executive committee will
probably recommend and publish IA pro-
visional method for this branch of the
work, to be used during the coming
crop.
The intention of the sugar chemists
of Hawaii to form such an association
was discussed at the meeting of the
Planters Association last week and
the association just formed seems To
be assured Of the support and coopera-
ton Of the planters.

Won Plehewe admits that the Central
Government did not distinguish itself
in this work. which it withdrew from
the hands of the Zemstovoes in 1900,
many local officials taking action only
after the need was very great. The
Minister recommends a partial return
to the old system, declaring that no
form of relief is comparable to public
works and only the Zemstovoes can
take such work.
NJ. Plehewe also admits "the famine of
1901 not only had extremely unfavor-
able results for the afflicted districts
