Questions and Answers.

O. Please give directions for propagate
ing Ginseng plants, in what time OF the
wear should the seed be planted and
howY
A. The seed should be taken as soon
as ripe and placed in small boxes, ana
we'll mixed with moist mot wet) sand,
then placed on the north side OF a build
ing and allowed to freeze over winter.
The seed should be carefully sifted and
looked over in April, and those that
show indications OF sprouting should De
planted in loose soil, that will not crust
over and will not be likely to become
foul with weeds Keep the young plants
partly shaded and their culture Is not
difficult. The balance OF the seed should
be returned to the boxes with the SAND
and left in like manner until the follow
ing April, when nearly all will germin-
ate.
Q. Are the peach buds damaged TO the
extent that is generally talkedY
A. Locally, we are in fairly good shape
for crop, our northern friends and
largely along the lake shore are badly
hurt. The cold wave being with an east
wind, and the lake being SO nearly frozen
over, has been great draw back to the
lake shore growers.
O. Last season my blackberry plants
were affected with yellow rust, how can
l prevent it this Year,
A. Like the jag cure the remedy is sell
dom applied until the victim is beyond
worldly usefulness. You should cut out
all plants as soon as any sign OF the rust
appears, and burn at once. Don't wait
until it all appears, but do this several
times for the present; as soon as spring
comes and before buds start, give q
thorough bordeaux spray to kill any
spores on the old cane, and completely
annihilate every plant that shows rust OF
the young shoots, as it is a disease ano
unless root and branch are taken on

Cherry Culture.

One OF thu most valuable fruit bullet
ment stations lately is Bulletin No. 70,
cherries aud Cherry Growing in Iowa.
issued by the Iowa experiment station.
The cherry h a popular fruit in Iowa,
and deservest to be more largely planted
in others of our western states. The
bulletin gives descriptions of varieties,
with illustrations OF many OF them, and
10 especially valuable in disting gushing
varieties, for the reason that many Of the
Russian varieties which we're introduced
by Prof. HudC about twenty years ago
have become badly mixed in orchards
and nurseries, and the descriptions given
ia this bulletin which are more apt to
be correct, will help to straighten out
the tangle.
In regard to the propagation Of the
sherry, this BULLETIN answers questions
very often raised as to why Mahaleb
stock is preferred for cherries, rather
than to work the Trees on Mazzard stock.
IT is claimed the hitter will make larger
tree. The Mahaleb is native OF south
ern Europe, ard il used almost exclus-
lively as a stock bywestern nurseryman,
propagation being by budding, as it is
worthless for grating. 1t is harder than
Nazzard, especially in dry climates and
isespecally adapted to the sour varieties
The Mazzard is a stronggrowing stock
of the sweet cherry type, and Is used In
the East and the warner sections ot the
West as stock for sweet cherries. 1t Is
not sufficiently harh for cold sections.
The Mazzard can be used for root-graft'
ing, but budding is the process of propa-
CATION generally used.
The bulletin says that on account of
the severity of the winters in the North
west harder stock must be secured
The American Morello, or pie cherry, a
native of Germany, has been used as a
stock in limited way, and seems to be
fairly promising. This stock is closely
related to the sour cherries, and is har-
der and forms better union than the
Nalaheb, but it sprouts from the root
after being planted in the orchard. Elk
periments are also being conducted II
the use of native stocks, such as wild
bird cherry and sand cherry, but no def
mite conclusions have been reached.
Cherries can be top-grafted, working
over varieties which are hardy IN tree
and tender in bud to more desirable
sorts This work must be done early il
spring, before sap begins TO flow, anC
while scions. are yet dormant. In top
grating the limbs chosen for working
should be well up in the tree, so tina
the sciops will not be over grown by tn
top of the tree that is left. Either thu
cleft or side graft may be used, and as
rule the limbs chosen for grating SHOULD
be not over an inch and half in diane
ter All cut surfaces should be covere'
with wax and wrapped.

NAVY DEPARTMENT WILL
BUILD Steel WATER LIGHTER

Acting under the advice of the Navy
Department, Admiral Terry has asked
for estimates on a new steel scow to
be used in Tightening water to vessels
of the navy in the harbor or stream.
Only local firms have been asked to
prepare estimates on the specifications
furnished by the Navy Department,
and if the tenders are satisfactory
formal bids will probably be asked.
The specifications call for a two
hundred ton steel lighter, made es-
pecially for the purpose of Tightening
fresh water to vessels which cannot
come up to the naval wharves. This
is convenience which has long been
needed, especially in the past, when
some of the larger vessels of the Unit
The Hawaiian gazette., 1904-05-06

ed States navy were unable to come
inside the harbor.
The request for estimates has been
made to a number of Honolulu firms,
and it Is the intention IL possible to
have the lighter built in the islands.
If it is done, it will be the first con-
struction of vessels for the United
States government ever attempted here.
If the estimates for construction here
are in excess of what the Navy Depart
ment desires, outside bids may be ask
ed, and it is the intention also to allow
local firms to make estimates and to
have the lighter shipped in parts to
Honolulu but to be erected here.
A lighter such as the Navy Depart
ment intends to put into the service
for the Naval Station in Hawaii is es-
timated to cost from $4,000 to $4,000.

BANKRUPTCY
LAW GIVEN

Judge sanford Ii. Dole rendered u
decision in the Federal Court yesterday
in the matter of the petition of II.
Hackfeld & Co, Hoffschlaeger co. and
Seattle Brewing d Mailing co. against
Y. Y. Hirose, doing business as Hirose
Shoten, for adjudication of bankruptcy,
allowing the prayer OF the petition and
adjudging respondent bankrupt
Thayer & Hemenway appeared for
petitioners Il. A. Douthitt for respond
ent.
1t was prayed in the petition that the
respondent be adjudged bankrupt on
the ground that he made, within four
months preceding the date of the petit
ton, a general assignment to one TIA
shire, for the benefit of his creditors,
thereby committing an act of bank
ruptcy.
The petition was opposed on the
ground that the petitioners had con-
scented to the assignment and therefore
We're estopped from taking proceedings
in bankruptcy. Judge Dole shows that
the Bankruptcy Act of 1885, which
supersedes all nsolvent laws of the
various States in the Union, provides
that IAN assignment for the benefit of
creditors Is made an act of bank
ruptcy and creditors may apply for an
adjudication of the debtor as Il bank
rupt within four months after the time
of said assignment"
After citation of authorities the
decision leads up to the conclusion al
ready stated with the following re-
marks

MUST PAY
RETA|NERS
Royal Agreements Are
No Longer Held to
Be Binding.

Royal retainers are not required t.
work without monetary compensation
| in the present generation, whatever
| they might have done in the days OF
the Dowager Kapiolani. That at least
is the decision of the Supreme Court
in the suit of Antoine Bright agains,
Prince David Kawananakoa.
Bright, during the lifetime Of Queen
kapiolani, was in charge as SUPERVISING
retainer of her land of Mokauea, Ka-
lihi, and as such received as compensa-
ton the use. free of rent, of a quarter
acre of land, in addition to certain
other perquistes. Upon the Queens
death Bright was told by Prince David
to continue at the same compensation,
which the retainer claimed meant rea-
sonable wages for the work performed.
At any rate, Bright concluded that he
was entitled to monetary remuneration
as we'll as royal perquisites and he
brought suit accordingly. The jury
awarded him $3.50 and the Prince APP
pealed, claiming that the verdict could
not be sustained by the evidence.
The Supreme Court sustained the
verdict in unanimous decision.
1.-THE view might we'll have been TAX
en- that the plaintiffs testimony was
ipnnncictanf nd J;y,,llitaJ ~,
averments in his bill in equity" says
Judge Perry in the opinion. 1.-The jury,
however, the sole judge of the CREDIBLE
ity of the witnesses, saw fit to believe
upon all the evidence that no express
agreement was made as to compensa-
ton. The finding cannot be set aside.
"Other contentious of the defendant
are that the evidence showed a con-
tract with the Queen and not with the
defendant, that at best the promise of
defendant was to pay the debt of an
other, that the land of Mokauea was
not the defendants, and that in any
event the defendant was not liable.
The defendant had an interest in the
land and if he saw fit to do so could
employ the plaintiff to work there and |
render himself liable for the latter's
There was evidence, as
already stated, tending to show a hir-
ing by the plaintiff personally and if
there was such hiring, the debt created
was not the Queens but the defend
ants.
THE bringing of the suit in equity |
which was later dismissed on demurrer
IN the ground of lack of jurisdiction or
because cause of action was not stat
ID, does not estop the plaintiff from
suing at law.
1.-THE exceptions are overruled."
