RUSH ORDER TO SURVEY
HANALEl BAY
TWO SCIENTISTS FROM THE COAST AND GEODETIC
SURVEY SENT HERE WITH INSTRUCTIONS TO MAKE
THE SURVEY AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE AND RE
PORT At ONCE TO WASHINGTON.

The Bay Hanalei is to be surveyed
by the Coast and Geodetic survey. For
some reason We orders from Washing
ton are to rush the work and report
as rapidly as possible. BY the Korea
yesterday there arrived Henry D. King
and j. W. Milburn of the Coast and
Geodetic sruvey who VIII go to the
Garden Island by an early steamer and
begin the work of a complete hydro
graphic survey of that pretty bay.
Mr.. KIM and Mr. Milburn were the
guests at luncheon today Of DR.. w. d.
Alexander.
Another member of the coast and
Geodetic survey who arrived yesterday
is r. Smith who came by the China
from Guam. He has zen in Guam
for some months making timeObserva-
lions for longitude in connection with
Fremont Morse who was first in Ma
Mia and afterwards at Midway. These
observations of time for longitude were
determined on 0v the Coast and Geo
detic survey as soon as the Pacific
Gable was laid. The observations were
first made between San Francisco and
Honolulu. One observer was at one
station and the other at the other.
Then the observers changed stations in
order to eliminate the personal ele-

HIS ANSWER
NO TIME LOST IN GETTING READY FOR THE DISBAR-
MENT HEARING IN JUDGE DOLES COURT-THE|
ACCUSED ATTORNEY MAKES A DENIAL AND DRAWS
IN THE NAMES OF MACON AND PETERS.

Bright and early this morning George
A. Davis presented himself at the Unit
ed States District court with a weighty
document which proved to be his an
swer to the disbarment charGes which
District Attorney Breckons filed yes
terday. The clerks hadn't arrived yet
and the Office wasn't open, bu; as soon
as it did open the answer was duly filed
and Davis proceeded to get out sub
poenas for his witnesses.
The answer sets forth that Davis
was regularly retained by Mrs. Maria
S. Davis to look after her interests in
connection with Summers estate, to
which she was the nearest heiress, and
that by an injunction he stopped the
sale of Summers land for 100000 and
obtained $4,000 more from the Oahu
Railway and land company later. Da-
Wis shows that he had an irrevocable
power Of attorney from Sumner and he
denies that he used any improper
means to secure note from the old
man or 10 collect a fee. The answer
continues with the following regarding

PARTNERS
FALLEN OUT
THE STORY OF WORTHLESS DEED WORTH TWO
THOUSAND TO ACHI-JOHNSON GETS A JUDGMENT
AGAINST HIS FORMER PARTNER BUT MAY HAVE TO
FACE CLAIM FOR FIRMS PROFITS.

Achi & Johnson, former partners in
the real estate and law business, met
as opponents in law this morning and
after a short engagement Johnson de-
parted in triumph with a judgment for
S2495 against his former partner, while
Achi mentally noted the wide difference
that often exists between judgment
and cash, and declared himself ready
for more battle.
The trouble was over a sale by Achl
of a piece of land that had a mortgage
on it. Johnson was the purchaser and
according to his testimony he didn't
know the land was mortgaged. After
he had paid the $4,000 and settled down
on the property be suddenly found c..
NJ. Cooke foreclosing on it, with Achi
as defendant. The foreclosure was COM
pleted and Johnson had to move.
Johnson sued for $I2, 500, which was
the amount named in the deed, but the
evidence showed that only $4,000 was
paid for the property Judge De Bolt
and Stanley both asked Achi a number

FUNIKOsHI TAKEN TO HILO.

Funikoshi escaped the police frying
pan to get into Sheriff Andrews fire
this morning. The Jap was charged be-
fore Judge Lindsay with having COM
municated with a female prisoner at
the Oahu Jail, an act which is in vio-
lation of Section 1444. A new charge
of conspiracy in the Watanaba murder
case was recently brought against Flu

RUSSIANS WILL NOT

POSSIBILITY OF SHIPMENT OF
MEAT ON KOREA REACHING
DESTINATION IS VERY REMOTE.

If, war is declared before the S. S.
Korea reaches Nagasald it will in one
respect be a fine occurrence for Japan.
Ii will enable the Japs to stop a vast
quantity of supplies reaching the Rus
slams. On board the Korea is a con-
signment of 50 carloads of meat for the
Russians. The stuff is sent out to Ma
gasaH for the purpose of being reship
ped to VladivostoclI. If war is declared
however, it win be impossible to get the
material up to Russia. The Japanese
Government has no doubt been advised
of the presence of this shipment and
will beyond any doubt take steps to
prevent the consignment falling into
the hands of the Russians.
In fact the local Japanese Consulate
was early apprised yesterday of the
extensive amount of food supplies on
the Korea for the Russians. It is like
l.! that the local consul will take steps
to apprise the minister at Washington
of the material on the Korea. The
prospects of the Russians ever eating
any of that American beef are beoom-
ing very remote.

ment from their observations and cal
culations. The distance from here to
Manila was too long for signals to
carry with certainty, so the next OBJ
servations were made by Mr.. Smith
going to Guam and Mrs. Morse to Ma
Mia. Then Mr.. Morse returned to Hoo
nolulu and from here went to Midway
by the Iroquois some months ago. Sig
nails were then exchanged between Mid
way and Guam Now Mr.. Smith will
set up his observatory and exchange
signals with Mr.. Morse between here
and Midway thus completing the en-
tire distance.
To complete the observations will re-
quire at least five nights which are
clear at both places. Mr.. Morse ex-
poets to return here about March J.
unless cloudy weather delays the com
pletiHon of the work.
BY these time observations it is eX-
pected to determine with entire ac.
curacy the longitude of the severa

BY land lines and Atlantic cables the

around the world, thus verifying indie
pendent observations made at the diff
ferent places, and eliminating possible
errors of all kinds.

alton seemed to amuse the jurors and
Stanley helped them out by saying ITO
fool somebody else" Stanley admitted
that $4,000 was all that was paid.
Achi claimed that Johnson knew when
he bought the land that there was a
mortgage on it, and in his answer said
that Johnson was one of the parties to
the transaction and therefore took
chances on the bargain" He attempted
yesterday to file an additional an
swer," but the court struck it from the
files at once, on the ground that the
time for filing such a document had
passed.
The additional answer opens a
chance for more litigation. Achi de-
claressin il that Johnson owes him So, :
900 as his share of the profits of the late
lamented firm of Achi & Johnson, and
makes a counter claim for that sum.
The jurors were only out a few min
utes, and returned a verdict for the
plaintiff for $4,000 and $495 interest and
costs paid out in recording the worth
less two thousand dollar deed.

ton when the draft horse is used. So with the
large place given machinery and consequent de-
mand for a large amount of energy to operate
these machines, the draft horse must come.
Just at present we are filing the demand for
draft animals by shipments from the West. But
there is no reason why these animals should not
be produced at home as a side line to general
farming. The beginning should be by the judi
cious use of the medium weight stations of the
draft breeds. In this way a marked change can
soon be brought about, and enterprising breeders
will find a great field for this work. The horse to
be can not be substituted for what we now have
the only way is the breed to heavier types.
Along this same line, mule raising offers good
inducements as a side line to general farming.
The old comradeship between the negro and the
mule is pleasing to see, but did it ever occur to
you that the association of these two would prob
ably be more congenial were they both "home
grown articles2 z"
As a matter of fact, practically I'll of our best
mules come from the West. We can not produce
a high class mule from a scrubby, understood
mare. 1t is not a matter entirely of feeding, but
very largely a matter of breeding. The best mule
is usually produced from the medium weight draft
mares, 1900 to 500 pounds. Mares of this size,
in Clydesdale and Percheron grades, can be
bought in the West and shipped in car lots about
as cheaply as a good gelding work-horse can be
obtained here. They will do practically a full
yea - work and produce a mule in the bargain.
There is but little difference in the cost of rails
ing a mule and of raising a steer. Yet the steer
sells for but thirty dollars, while the mule brings
one hundred and fifty. J. s. GATES.

Live Stock i'm North Carolina.
III.


North Carolina is not to-day producing enough
horses and mules for home demands. Large num-
bers are coming each year from the Western
States. Horse production, too, is falling still
further short each year. Statistics show we have
more colts between one and two years old than
under one year old.
This shrinkage in production is largely because
there is not demand for the class of horses we
are now able to produce. The North Carolina
farm horse is generally speaking a nondescript-
a "jack-of-all-trades," roadster, saddler, draft
horse, or what not, as the occasion demands, and
like all "jack-of-all-trades", is not a specialist in
any line. When there is improved blood in the
combination it is usually from the American
trotter. But the trotter is not in any sense q
farm horse. and his breeding should be the work
of the professional horseman rather than the
farmer.
The demand on the farm to-day, and for the
future, is for the heavier breeds. Pulling power

A deep breastbone will carry more flesh than one
not so deep, but it will not present the rounded.
meaty appearance of the latter, and will not bring
as high a price per pound. It is not so much diff
ference what breed you select if you keep the
proper type in mind, and this type can be found in
either the Rocks or Wyandottes. Birds of either
of these breeds can be bought from breeders at
reasonable prices, as all breeders have birds which
are off in fancy points, such as color or comb,
and these if of good shape and size are just az
good to use on common stock as the best New
York winner. Never use a bird, however, that is
not good in shape and size.

Live Stock and Dairy
BY CHARLES WIN. BURKErr,
KEEP YOUR BEST STOCK.

Many farmers are in the habit of selling their
best animals. as they will bring the highest prices.
A greater mistake cannot be made. A difference
of 10 or 25 per cent in the price of a single ami
NAL i, o small affair as compared with this differ
cnca in the whole herd. BY keeping the best to
propagate from, the whole may be made Of equal
excellence, and in the course of q few years num-
erous animals might be produced having the ex-
cellcnt properties now distinguishing some few of
the best.
What should we say of a farmer who had sew
cral highly valuable varieties of potatoes and
other kinds that are inferior, and for the sake of
ten cents extra per bushel he sells for consump-
ton all his better varieties and plants those that
are inferior, when in consequence of this impru-
dent measure, his next crop will fall short twenty
five per cent? Everyone will condemn this course.
and few, if any, are so wanting in discretion as
to pursue it. Yet many take q similar course in
selling their best animals and propagating from
the poor. Not only is this true for animals for
breeding purposes, but for work as well. Who of
US do not know in our own experience of farmers
who sell their best workhorses, and keep the poor
er2 Well the consequence is that the poorer costs
q great deal more to keep each year, and does less
work, and in the end is the most expensive animal.
The policy should have been to keep the better
one and to have sold the inferior one. This is
true in every case.
And doubly so, I believe, when the farmer has
animals for breeding purposes. There is a vast
difference in our cattle in sections where much
attention has been given to improvements by Sc
Letting the best, when contrasted with those where
little or no attention has been paid to the subject,
and as a matter of course the best have been sold,
or eaten up, because they were the latest.

Selecting a Male to Improve the Flock.

Editors Progressive Farmer:
Before buying a male to improve the flock it
will be necessary to decide what we are aiming
for.
If eggs alone be the object we will want a male
of the Leghorn or Minorea family, but if, as is
generally the case on farms, We want to get the
greatest possible egg production with a fowl that
will make a good table bird, we must look to one of
the American breeds. Here we find the Plymouth
Rocks and Wyandottes. There are three varieties
of the former and six of the latter. The only diff
ference in the different varieties of each breed is
the color, the shape and size requirements for
the breeds being the same no matter what the
color, and it is therefore mainly a matter of in
dividual fancy which is chosen.
A good laying strain of either Plymouth Rocks
or Wyandottes will lay nearly as many eggs as the
Leghorns and the surplus males and old hens will
be worth a good deal more when you market
them.
To produce market poultryS or in fact, live
stock of ay kind for any purpose, it is necessary
to have constitution, and if your male bird is
lacking in this particular, you can never make
a success with him.
As a rule you will find that a bird with a short.
stout beak we'll curved, a broad head, not too long,
and a full, bright eye, has a good constitution.
The neck should be moderately short and stout.
The back broad across the shoulders, and carry
ing the width well back to the tail.
The breast 10 the most important point in a
market bird, and should be broad, well-rounded.
moderately deep, and as long as possible, extend
ing we'll back between the legs as well as forward,
giving the bird an oblong shape when the neck
and legs are removed. We do not want the wedge
shape in market poultry any more than we do in
beef cattle.
The legs should be moderately short, stout.
straight and placed we'll apart. Some may say,
"why do you want the breast only moderately
deepF"
The best market for fowls demands birds from
four and m half to five and q half pounds in
