Twas the night before Christmas,
And all through the house,
Not a creature was stirring,
Not even a, mouse.
When mama awoke with a start and
a shake,
And wondered why papa
Was SO wide awake;
A rumbling and roaring
Soon came to their ears
A noise that would follow them,
All through their years.
For down near the bath room
The water rushed out,
And it caused poor papa
And mama to Shout
'Oh, why did we make such a fearful
mistake"
oh, John dear, I fear that
Ny poor heart will break,
Unless you will promise
That tomorrow you'll call
Bath, the plumber, and have him
Go over it all.
And then no more leaks,
For we know that it's true.
That folks always call Bath
When there's plumbing to do"

Nuuanu Forest Station,


To the Honorable Board of Commits
sioners of Agriculture and Forestry.
Gentlemen: I herewith submit the
following report of the work done in
reforesting the upper part of Nuuanu
valley from May to December 81, 1905,
report having been given for the four
months of the year previous to May L.
At Governor DoIe's request a report
was made to him for the year ending
June 80, 1908, the same being now on
file in the Office.
For the past year we have had to
rely entirely on what seed could be
collected around here, as there has
been no seed imported for forest pur-
poses. We have got our supply most
ly from the Tantalus forest, where
number of the trees are now bearing
On our last visit to the forest We found
the following species in seed: Eucalyp-
tus, Citriodora, E. Calophylla, E. Ro-
busta and E. rostiata, and by making
a thorough search many more of the
species of this family might be found
bearing seed. Other kinds of trees
may also be found bearing in forest,
such as different species of the Casuar-
ina, Syncarpia Iaurifolia and others,
all of which are good forest trees, al
though most of them have been tried
in Nuuanu without much of success,
owing to the heavy winds. Still they
ought to do well in less exposed places
We have found in many instances that
seed collected from the trees growing
here is more satisfactory than import
ed seed of the same kind. In the first
place, a larger percentage of the SEED
collected here will terminate than I'M
ported seed. Then again the trees
from which the seeds have been taken
are acclimated and the plants from
such trees are likely to make a faster
growth to begin with.
The planting done in Nuuanu during
the past eight months has been con-
fined to the lower slopes on piece
of land between the old and new ROADS.
This piece of land is a little less ex-
posed to the wind than the land higher
UP and consequently the trees are max
ing a faster growth. The percentage
of trees that have died on this piece OF
land so far is very small, not over one
per cent. The same system has been
followed as on the other lands, namely,
planting six feet by six feet, making
1910 trees per acre.
The following are the number and
varieties of trees planted during the
past eight months: $500 Acacia Mela-
noxylon 5000 Casuarina equisetifol1a,
5000 Greviliea robusta, 7000 Eucalyptus
robusta, 100 Ochrosia Sandwicensis.
Trees to the amount of $4,000 remain
in nursery. The varieties are as fol-
lows: Acacia Melanoxylon, Casuar1na
equistifolia, c. quadrivalvis, c. Subrosa'
c. Torulosa, Eucalyptus Calophylla, L.
robusta, Grevillea robusta, MAZDA Sand
wicensis Lama), Ochrosia Sandwich

THOMAS SQUARE BLIGHT.

The following report on the Thomas
Square blight was read:
Honolulu T. H., Jan. 20p 1904.
w. NJ. Giffard, Esq, Special Commit
tee on Entomology.
Dear Sir: The "black blight in
Thomas Square is merely the ordinary
fungus growth which follows the at
tack of mealy-bug. 1t is confined to a
few trees only (banyans) which on ac-
count of their large size would be very
expensive and difficult to treat. More
over, as the scale-bug causing this
black blight is on practically every
banyan tree in the country and on va
rious other trees, it is sure to return
Immediately after treatment. 1t is
therefore better to wait the opportunity
of securing an efficient natural enemy
for this scale-bug. On the whole I may
say that Thomas Square is singuIarly
exempt from insect pests and compares
most favorably with the average yard
or garden about town.
Yours obediently,
r. C. L. PERKINS,
Assistant Superintendent of Ento-

OTHER MATTERS.

Mr.. Holloway reported the tree fumi-
eating plant ready for service. except
for the drying of paint on the canvas.
Mr.. Giffard told of some successful
experiments by Gardener Austin in
fumigating with cyanide of potassium.
Mr.. Holloway read a note from Mr..
Kirkaldy, chronological inspector, re-
porting that he had rejected five boxes
of fruit from China.
Mr.. Giffard presented a requisition
from Mr.. Perkins, for various supplies
to the chronological division which
would cost about $500. 1t was laid
over for consideration, Mr.. Holloway
making the remark that there was
some money in sight now since the
County Act had been knocked out.

ssistant Entomologist

Mr.. Giffard. in advocating the neces-
sity of keeping the Orthesia in check.
said if he could get Mr.. Bolte, owner
of lands in the locality, to act with
him they would employ men at pri-
vate expense to go to work in cleaning
up the Kailua patches. (The speaker
is the representative of w. G. Irwin,
owner of Maunawili mentioned in the

THE LANTANA BLIGHT.
Honolulu. It. H.. Jan. 20. 1870


| Gentlemen: On the 10th inst. at the
request of Mr.. Giffard 1 inspected with
him the Scale-infected lantana on the
Kailua road. The infected area was
| very conspicuous from quite a distance,
the foliage having a much darker APP
pearance than that of the healthy BUSH
es, owing to a sooty fungus which is
nourished by the honey dew exuded,
and on closer inspection the leaves
We're found to be curled and covered
with the insect (Orthesia insignis).
Only one patch was observed on the
S. w. side of the road, but on the OPP
posite side the infected bushes extend
for a long distance along the fencing,
where I was informed it was originally
introduced. Whether the road has
proved to be to some extent an isolation
belt. as the scarcity of the insect on
the s. w. side would suggest, or wheth-
er its dispersal there has been checked
by the prevailing winds, is a difficult
point to decide.
To the casual observer the area of
infection appears much greater than is
really the case, since large patches of
guava, also, have the same dark APP
pearance. This, however. proved on ex-
animation to be caused by mealy-bug
Dactylopius sp.i-
No Orthesia scale was found upon
guava, even when growing up through
badly infected lantana. A more thor
ough examination, however, would be
necessary to decide the absolute immu-
nifty of the former plant. Further along
the road toward Maunawili healthy
growth of 1antana was found to have
a few Orthesias, showing that it's dis |
tribution is by no means limited. The |
danger of its presence near coffee cam |
not be estimated, since it is known to /
attack that plant among others in Cey-
lon and is found upon various plants
in South Africa (Capetown, Natal, Port
Elizabeth and E. Lcndon), the West
Indies (Trinidad, Jamaica and Antigua)
and British Guiana, from which locality
it is supposed to have originated.
One very practical method of check
ing the pest, as suggested by Mr. Gift
fard, would be to cut down and burn
the infected patches.
Yours truly,

NUUANU FOREST NURSERY.

Secretary Holloway read report
from David Haughs, forester, on the
Nuuanu nursery. 1t was read and re-
ferred to superintendent Hosmer, being
as follows:

of labor. OF course it was practical
question.
Mr.. Giffard supposed the superintend-
ent of forestry would have his own
ideas on the matter. All gardeners had
individual theories and methods.
Mr.. Dole thought it would be we'll to
have an estimate of the cost of raising
trees. and thus have something upon
which they could act. Mr.. Gifard stat
ed that it was the idea OF Mr.. Haughs
that the Nuuanu nursery should be
suspended and more important work
taken up. Since the arrival of Super
intendent Hosmer. however, they
should leave this matter to him. Mr..
Dole then moved that Mr.. Hosmer be
asked TO make an estimate of the cost
of propa eating forest trees at the. Nuu-
anu nursery. The motion carried.
Mr.. Gifard, from the entomology
committee. submitted reports from
members of the staff of the entomology
icai department, which appear below.
The first was on the lantana blight,
as seen on the Koolau side OF this ISL

SUPERINTENDENT OF FORESTS.
Mr.. Giffard orally reported from the
committee on forests and nurseries.
The new superintendent of forests,
Ralph S. Hosmer, arrived last week in
the steamer Siberia. Whilst he had
not reported to the Board as a whole,
he had done SO to the president. AT
Mr. Thurston's suggestion Mr.. Hosmer
Immediately went to Hawaii to investi-
gate forestry conditions in Hamakua
and Kohala. 1t was presumed he
would make a report of his investiga-
ton, and that his further movements
would be decided by the Board in
session.

CIRCUS HAS ONE HUNDRED CARS
5arnum G. Bailey Have That Many to
Haul Show This Year.

To those who are fond of Spectac-
liar things this reminder is given that
he coming parade of the Barnum &
Bailey greatest show on earth is far
and away beyond all spectacles pre-
'ented in any previous years. A sin
lie item of this parade will suffice to
show it's extraordinary character.
James A. Bailey, for the past quar-
er of a century the creator and the
general manager and sole owner of
he great exhibition, has determined
o celebrate his return from his last
md longest of numerous visits to for
aign lands with the show in fitting
manner. To do this he has had con-
;tructed in this country an enormous
AMOUNT of new material which has
been added TO the magnificent parade
which astounded all Europe during the
1ast five years. This item referred to
part of the new material and COM
)rises 16 tableaux and chariots, which.
themselves, cost more than the en-
ire parade given by any other show
n previous years, not even excepting
he BaTnum & Bailey show itself. and
his item is but one. Heretofore the
argest number of cars employed TO
transport any show through this coun-
~ has been the 6S cars used by the
3arnum & Bailey show No other
show has ever used so many. despite
claims that they have made to the con
rary- This year the Barnum & Bailey
show uses sc cars with which to trans,
bort the exhibition itself, with four ad.
'ance advertising cars. or the enor.
nous total of 100 cars 1t should be
understood that these cars are ali OF
iouble length and twice the capacity
If the largest cars used for the trans
portation of ordinary freight by the
-ailroads. This proportion of bigness
the show is maintained throughout
According to the reports of the press
# New York. the show has increased
merit equally with its augmentation
n size, and it is 10 be regarded as a
'ertainty that nothing so stupendous

NEW DIVISION ON THE @
It Will Shorten the One Now Extend
ing From Chicago to Mendoza.


Aurora Beacon: The Aurora divis-
on is to be the name of a new di-
vision to be created by the Burlington
in a few days. 1t will shorten the old
Chicago division which now extends
from Chicago to Mendoza
The west end of the old division will
be included in the new Aurora divis-
.on. The Aurora division will then
extend from point a short distance
vest of the Western Wheeled Scraper
works in Aurora to Gearing, a point
midway between Mendoza and Prince
on. The Chicago division will then
extend from Chicago to the division
point lear the Scraper works. The
Chicago terminal division will also be
operated, but it will probably be drop
bed from the list soon.
W.B. Throop, the present superin-
tendent of the Chicago Lewiston, will
be in charge of the Aurora division.
C. w. Card and F. J. Allen and the
other officials will make no change in
their positions. The officials of the
Chicago terminal will have charge of
he Chicago division as follows: II. G.
detzler will be superintendent, j. H.
Putney will be passenger trainmaster.
w. S. Kirby will have the position OF
freight trainmaster, and r. S. Emmett
will be roadmaster.
The change will give the new Chi
cago division about % miles of road
and the Aurora officials will have
about 60 miles to look after. The
cause of the change is not stated, but
It is thought that it is on account of
the heavy traffic on the old Chicago
livision which extended from Clyde
TO Mendoza exclusive of the Chicago
terminals. and it was a hard task to
| look after all the work.
1t is also reported that there will
5e changes in the telegraph depart
| ment which will cause some of the
train dispatcheTs to leave Aurora, but
it is not known where they will 10
| cate if the change is made. 1t is
thought that Clyde will be the point.

hall \ purse of $40 has been made
up, $50 of which will go TO the winner
and $50 to the loser Both men have
gained some repute in the priZe-fight-

Finley is well known here. and has
won a name for having defeated
many who challenged him. Among
others was a Chicago man whom he
knocked out of the ring last winter.
With the exception of being whipped
one time in Burlington, Iowa, Finley
has always come out the winner. He.
like Yeiser, is welterweight, and
handles himself quite cleverly, and
has some good blows and tricks of the
ring. Yeiser is not so well known in
this vicinity. but he has a reputation
as powerful fighter in his home town,
FIT. Madison. Iowa, where he has met
and defeated different fighters of note.
