There is among many cotton grow
ers an idea that clover turned under
cnuses "rust' In the succeeding cot
ton crop. This can not be true, be-
cause rust is due to fungoid or mite
parasites.
Neither will crop OF clover turned
under in early spring or late fall
''sour" the land as many imagine.
All typical cotton soils are deficient
in lime and potash--two minerals
which are necessary foods for clover
as well as for cotton plants. Before
sowing clover, it will be profitable to
top-dress the land with 500 pounds OF
lime and 100 pounds Of murlate OF
potash or 400 pounds Of kainlt per
acre. These minerals do not easily
wash away and will remain until all
are taken up by the clover or follow
ing crops
The cotton grower who will intelll.
gently use crimson clover as a "be-
tween season" crop can make cotton
pay handsomely at much lower prices
than the staple now commands, be-
cause for the same amount of land,
labor and fertilizer he can obtain a
more than average yield-Gerald Nc.

nnpe For HoRs.

E. E. W., Nut Bush Tenn, writes:
II wish come information as to the
value of rape as a pasture for hogs
time Of sowing, amount Of seed per
acre, preparation Of soil, and about
how many hogs an acre will pasture"
Rape may be sown in carry August
as a fall pasture for hogs. 1t will not
be ready to pasture until about six
weeks after seeding, provided the sea-
son is not too dry. Rape is a succu-
lent plant and grows well in a moist
soil and in q season when the rainfall
is well distributed. II can also be
planted early in the spring. say, about
the LIST of March, and pastured along
in the latter part of May, June, and
sometimes into July. During the hot
weather of August and September it
frequently dies down, especially If pas
tured close, and must then be re-
seeded for fall grazing. Seeded in the
early August In drills, eighteen to
twenty-four inches apart. 1t should be
ready for pasture about the LIST Of oc-
tober and should furnish plenty Of
grazing until the LIST Of December.
Seed at the rate of about four to six
pounds per acre. 1t is much better to
drill rather than to broadcast, as the
seed can be covered more uniformly
and a better stand obtained. Hogs
should not be turned ON until the leaves
sprout out enough to mat across the
rows. AS soon as the rape is up and
for several weeks thereafter 1t should
be cultivated carefully to destroy
weeds and preserve a dust mulch. II
is not possible to determine the num-
Der Of hogs an acre Of land viii carry.
This depends on the size and age Of
the animals and the growth made by
the crop. In one instance 1t might
carry twenty for one month and in an
other case a larger or lesser number
for varying period Of time. Hogs on
rape should receive some grain. Corn
is very good or you may mix corn and
wheat meal or corn and soy bean meal
together with advantage. Knoxville

Hairy vetch may be sown with oats

MAUI, Nov. 14-Political matters on
Maui have been most quiescent during
the past week, the lull after the storm.
Several of the newIy-elected county
officials have already obtained bonds
from Honolulu trust companies. Re-
port has it that others are in Honolulu
seeking sureties. Republicans are ask
ing whether it is possible that all the
successful candidates can obtain bonds
from the same source.
The Home Rulers will hold a caucus
lust prior to the Inauguration of coun-
| ty government and decide as TO what
minor appointments will be made.
Rumor states that either E. NJ. Ha-
nuna or Kaua will be deputy sheriff OF

Sam. Kaiapa, Tom Pa or Adam For
sythe will be sheriff for Makawao: thai
Rev. Mr.. Kekipi, OF the Pauwela Chris
tian Science church, will be the asses
sor for Makawao, and that either Geo
Kaleikini or L. NJ. yettlesen will soor
collect taxes for Lahaina and Lanai.
The more conservative among the
Home Rulers are advising against too

and recommending where change i:

men.
There is report of the circulation o.

way. Prevention, says the prov
erb, is better than cure. So it is,
and vastly easier. That is, achen
goa know how to prevent. The
town of London would not have
been scourged by the plague if the
people had known how to pre-
vent it. But they did not, and
SO they were swept away as grain
falls in front of the big reapingI
machines. Men used to build
forts and castles, and strong
walls around their cities, in or
der to be safe from their ene-
mics; and there was wisdom and
good Judgment in the idea. New
ertheless, disease, which kills
thousand where ten are slain in
battle, cannot be kept out by
thick walls or escaped by flight.
The proper thing to DO is to
make the body healthy by right
living and the frequent use of a
tonic and purifying medicine like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
which causes the food to be well
digested, destroys or expels the
germs OF disease that may be in
the blood, and stirs up the organs
to active and natural operation.
This ever-successful remedy is
palatable as honey and contains
all the nutritive and curative pro-
perties of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
extracted by US from fresh cod
livers, combined with the Com
pound Syrup of Hypophosphites
and the Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry. No other medicine
can compare with it in prevent
ing, relieving and curing La
Grippe. Throat and Lung Trou-
bles, Dysentery, Debility, and
other ailments to which all are
exposed from the germs con-
stantly taken into the system
from the air, water, food. and
many other sources. DR.. W. D.
MeNab, of Canada, says: 81 find
your preparation of cod liver oil
to be a most valuable form of
nourishment and tissue builder
for patients suffering from vast
ing diseases" Effective from

HILO, Nov. 13.-Chang Pun, age u, |
has occidentalized himself. He has |
married Aona Alama, age Is. The mar |
rfage was solefnnized by an American |
ma gistrate, not by a mandarin and |
according to the custom Of Confuci- |
US. The bride was not purchased or
obtained after tedious and eeremoni-
Gus negotiation between parents. She
was taken as any Anglo Saxon Loeb
invar would take his sweetheart, IN

custom and mercenary mamas-but in
this case it happened to be papa-Mr.

street.
Chang is chief steward for the B.
P. o. E. Club and is favorite with all
the members. He is a gentle lad of
quiet mien, but in love, superb. He
loved Aona Alama, the fairest blossom
in the Chinese garden Of Hilo. Aona
reciprocated. Chang mentioned the
matter to Alama, pere. The old gen.
tleman said he would like Chang for
| sen-in-law but that he must take
| Acne to the F1owery Kingdom and
| there be welded according to the an

| Vedhas. Chang modestly but firm
| ly said that his queue had been con-
signed to limbo and that he belonged
to an American institution and would
marry, but marry only a la Americana.
| Then Old Alama said he would have
the Bow Wongs garrotte "Aone" be-
fore she should enter into this INSANE

| took Aona from her home on Front
street and proceeded to the home CT
Judge Thos. C. ,Ridgway, securing a
| marriage license on the way. The
I Judge made the, twain one according
TO good English and American law and

disappeared. They are in hiding from
the enraged Alama, who with other

sight 1t was said by Chinese that
Chang's life is not worth a pin, for

HELPING GUAvA INDUSTRY.
P. E. Lamar of Wailuku is interested
in promoting the guava jelly industry.
He has been making efforts recently to
secure guava lands in the Makawao
region,S There are miles of land upon
which guava bushes are growing wild
throughout Makawao, Kaupakalua,
U1umalu, Keanae, Nahiku, even to Ha-
ma village. This land is also suitable
for the raising of pineappIes and most
of it is fit for banana culture, in fact in
the Koolau country banana trees are
growing everywhere in the forest most
luxuriantly. East Maui surely has a
prosperous outlook for the future as
regards guavas, pineapples and bana-
mas, providing of course proper means
are used in promoting the ENTERPRISE
