BANANAS.

Else where in this paper complaint is
made of the dearth in the market of
the apple banana. That fruit, with its
delicate pulp and sub-acid flavor, is in
strong demand and the supply is far
from being equal to it. Our people
would also like to get hold of the red
banana of Cuba and the plantain OF
BIuefields. While not wholly confined
to the use of inferior bananas, the con-
sumers of Honolulu find that the poorer
varieties flood the market and leave
them small choice. Yet it is as easy to
grow a dainty banana here as a coarse
and common one. Soil, climate and
rainfall are as adaptable to the one as
the other.
The trouble is that we have left the
banana industry to the Chinese, who
are carrying it on precisely as their
forefathers did and with the same
stock. Originally they sent for the ba-
mana Of Canton, which was the only.
one they knew, and they have been,
with characteristic fidelity to old GUS
tom. sticking to it to the exclusion of
other and better varieties. Some few
have consented to raise the apple ba-
nanas and there are some who raise red
ones in a commercial way on Kauai.
But when all has been said, probably
ninety-five per cent Of the eating ba-
nanas in the market are of the unat-
tractive Chinese variety.
this fruit not merely for our own table
use but for export. The encyclopedias
say there are as many varieties of
bananas as there are of apples. What
would be thought of Eastern orchard
lists if they grew nothing but cider ap-
pies, producing none Of the Strawberry,
Northern Spy, Pippin, Gnlyhower. King
and Pound Sweet varieties? Yet that is
the attitude OF our banana-growers,
one essentially Chinese and not worthy
of an American Territory.
The Advertiser hopes that the Board
of Agriculture will, in the course of its
experimental work, import the best
grades Of bananas and set them to
growing here. In a little while they
viii appear in dooryards. or upon white
mems farm land and eventually may
supplant for export, as they certainly
viii for the home table, the Chinese
product. Three varieties. the apple ba-
mana, the red banana and the Bluefelds
plantain are especially desirable, and it
might not be a bad idea to also get hold
OF some OF the herbaceous stalks which
produce the mammoth plantain of Cen
trail Africa task in which the United
States Agricultural Department would
probably assist.

TnE WATER QUESTION.

II Honolulu Is 10 grow. IL should have
an ample and heaIthfuI supply OF wa
ter. That was the argument chiefly
used in the Legislature when the Pauoa
job was up and 1t is as good now as
II was then and has. besides. a better
proposal to make. No city can get on
II there Is danger OF a water famine;
none can succeed as a health resort if
there is a fair question as TO the quail
ty. for drinking purposes. OF the water
supplied TO homes.
The danger exists. the question is
raised. Honolulu needs a supply of
5000. coo gallons of water per day. there
or whereabouts. The pumps furnish
5.O00.0 900 gallons. and in favorable
weather the Nuuanu reservoir gives
about 100000. Not infreauentIy the
reservoir is dry or nearly so and ut
such times its water is foul with de-
caying vegetable matter and the rms
ings OF the pastures. 1t has long been
felt that this reservoir should have
been built further up the valley and
with a larger area so as to get out of
the pasture district, and put in al
wetter section where fuller and more
reliable supply OF water could be had
and that hitration plant should go
with it. The other alternative is toi
build another pump and keep up con-
saant and sufficient supply of artesian1
water
The; argument for the larger reservoir |
!. that it eliminates the cost of pump
ing: 1t would serve the city, including
its hi1fy portions. by gravity. which IS
the cheapest service possible. Even de-
ductiBg the cost OF and interest on a
plant. the reservoir system is
more economical than the pumping sys-
tenn.
Those who favor public reliance upon
l pumping method point out that the
water from artesian wells needs NO fl
.erfng: that the artesian level is not
affected by drouths. while
. reservoir anywhere In the valleys
would succumb to such a dry spell as
oahu had three and more years ago.
The Advertiser does not care to ex-
,ress any choice between the two sys- I
ems; it wishes Honolulu had the ad-
-antage of them both so that gravity {
uppIy of filtered water could be had in :
vet weather and a lifted supply of ar
eslan water in dry weather. The only
'oint we urge, however, is that the
legislature should not adjourn without
omehow settling the water question 50 r
hat Honolulu may progress without t
he special handicap of a questionable d
Tater supply.

HAWAII AND The NORTHWEST.

The Pacific Northwest, when con-
nected with Hawaii by a regular
steamship line, such as is proposed
from Tacoma. ought to become a good
customer for this Territory. Last year
a consignment of bananas went from
Honolulu to Seattle and brought more
than double the price in San Francisco
There is a demand in the Northwest for
all tropical products which is not sub
ject to so much competition as the de-
mand in San Francisco. 1t seems prob
able that Hawaii. If it were given the
chante, could control the Northwestern
trade in bananas and pineapples. With
cold storage facilities it could send on
a great many alligator pears and man
goes, fruit which now appears on the
bills of fare OF the leading hotels on the
Eastern seaboard and which has come
TO be accounted fashionable
But the trade need not be onesided.
Honolulu knows that certain kinds Of
merchandise. food for man and beast,
can be got cheaper from the Sound
country than from san Francisco.
Seattle and Tacoma both offer special
prices. In too many lines San Fran
cisco rates are too high. Much Of the
extra cost OF living here is purely arbi-
trary and would succumb to the COM
petition OF the Northwest. To secure
the greatest good 10 the greatest num-

MUST HAVE LICENSE.
Farmers Must Pay for Hunting Ii
cense Except for Rabbits and
Squirrels on their own Ground.

A great many hunters are labor
ing under a wrong impression.
The farmers of the state have
been under the misconception that
they were allowed by the new law
to hunt without a license. This
is true only with respect to rabbits
and squirrels and confined to the
premises Of each particular farmer.
AS the game laws are being cir
culated by Warden Overlook and
the county clerks, the farmers are
learning that it is necessary for
them to take ont a license as 1t
was last year, if they desire to
shoot on any land other than their
own and if they desire to hunt any
thing other than rabbits and
squirrels.
Instructions have been sent out
by State Fish and Game Warden
Overlook to the deputy wardens
to take lists of all persons who Sc
cured licenses a year ago and see
that all who hunt take out the re-
quired license. Under the statutes
the minimum fine for person
hunting without a license is $50,
which together with court costs
and the loss of the hunting outfit,
guns, dogs and other parphernalia,
would make the average penalty
nearly 800, more than enough to
pay for the license for a mans
natural life time.
