outside such house will be warm
enough for SOW and pigs In zero
weather, and on extremely cold nights
a lantern hung In the house will pro
vide warmth enough. The plan for a
portable house used by a successful
breeder, Mr. A. j. Love1oy of Illinois.
has recently been described In the ag-
ricultural press as follows: The Love
JOY pens or portable houses are each
situated in the middle of an acre lot
and on either side Of a driveway, the
division being made by the use of wire
fencing.
The houses are eight feet square.
Four sixteen inch boards make the
floor, and the roof and sides are made
of matched flooring lined with building
paper and that covered on the inside
with common lumber. The houses are
set to front south. There is a door In
both north and south ends and a win
dow In the south end, the latter being
hinged at the top with rope and pull
ley attached, so that 1t can be swung
up out of the way when 1t is open. In
cold weather and early spring II neces
sary the south openings are opened,
also closed, fresh air being secured
through the ventiator in the roof by
carrying the ridge trihe higher than
the sides that comprise the roof.
In hot weather the houses are con-
verted into summer resorts by leaving
both doors and windows open. Each
house Is nicely painted with two coats
and trimmed in white and costs com
plete about $40. The houses are set up
on blocks in summer to keep the floors
dry, and In the winter time they are
dropped to the ground and banked to
keep the wind out from under the floor.

DRAINAGE OF LAND.

DIR. ElwOod Mead, Drainage Expert,
Asserts Its Importance.
There are large areas Of land which
always receive too much water, large
areas which never receive enough and
yet larger areas which have sometimes
too much and sometimes too little wa
ter. Only by a proper control of the
water supply can these lands be made
to produce the best crops, and such n
control includes both irrigation and
drainage, some lands needing one
some the other and some needing both

are az often drowned out as burned
out, and 1t Is probable that drainage to
remove water in wet years will prove
as profitable as irrigation in dry years.
The area OF land In the United States

which is too wet for agricultural use,
which can be reclaimed by drainage,
has been estimated by Professor n. S.
Shaler at from 100000 to 131 900
square miles, or from 81, 200, 900 to SO,
$4,000 acres. 1t Is a notable fact
that this Is practically the same as the
estimates of the area which can be
reclaimed by irrigation-that Is the
area east Of the one hundredth merid-
ian which can be reclaimed by drain
age equals that west Of that line which
can be reclaimed by irrigation.
These wet lands have received for
centuries the alluvial deposits from the
streams which overflow them and the
vegetable mold from the rank growth
which covers them, so that when re-
lieved OF their surplus water they are
among our most productive lands.
They have not been reclaimed because
of the expense involved and the avail
ability of other lands which required
less outlay to bring them under cult
walton. but the exhaustion of the sup
ply Of other lands and the nearness of
these wet lands to markets and lines
of transportation are making their
drainage prohtable.-Dr Elwood Mead.

Porp1exity OF the Doctors IN a Typical and
Serious Case Relieved by an
Important Discovery.
The fear which ia justly aroused by
the appearance of . disease with such
fatal tendencies ~ scrofula, will be re.
lieved by a statement of a recent re-
msrkable cure. Mr. Thomas T. Brown,
of she Hume Carriage Company. Amss-
bury, Mass, says:
About two years ago was affected
with scYofulous disease which spread
over my whole body. l became greatly
alarmed and consulted physicians In
Amesbury and in Newburyport. They
told me had a case of scrofula, and
that I would have to take the greatest
care TO avert fatal result. They pro-
nouncsd my blood to be in a bad con.
dition and said long time would be
necessary TO put me in healthy state.
There was chronic Inflammation all

prescribed had no effect In checking the

heard the doctor say that there WAS dan

sumption. Then began TO lose all hope.

After had taken three boxes saw
that the Inflammation was going down
and that there were fewer sores. I re-
allied that I was improving and con-
Mnued to use the pills until had taken
eight boxes. Then l was entirely cured.

WATLUKU, October IA rather
important meeting of the Improve
ment Association Of Wailuku District
was held at the court house last night
az which several very important mat
tiers were taken up. Reports from
committees were received, most Of
them showing satisfactory progress.
Most important Of an was a commu-
nication from Col j. w Jones, ad-
dressed to Captain w y. Bal Of Com
pany l. In his letter Col. Jones stated
that the appropriation for the Waikiki
armory was available at any time now
and that the only thing necessary was
the procuring ot a site. Captain Bal
referred this matter to the Improve
ment Association, at which meeting a
committee of five consisting of II. NJ.

BECKLEY AFTER
HOME RULERS
RUNNING INDEPENDENT ON
KUINA'S VOTE.

WAILUKU, October 1.-THE Repub-
lican candidates for the Senate and
House of Representatives have had
rousing meetings at Waihee, Puunene
and Waikapu during the week, at all
of which good audiences have been re-
ported. Tomorrow night a grand po-
litical meeting will be held at the
Skating Rink, at which all of the cam
didates on the Republican Ticket will
speak. The Wailuku Band will be in
attendance to make things lively and
stir up the enemy, as certainly the
melodious strains pouring forth from
the band of musicians is loud and
sweet enough to bring even the most
hardened Home Rulers to within hear
ing distance of the Republican candi-
dates who will speak. F. w. Beckley
formerly Speaker of the House, is run
ming as an Independent candidate for
Representative. it is stated that he is
out with his Ratchet for David Kaha-
ulelio, but in his speeches he attacks
the whole Home Rule party Shortly
before the Home Rule candidates for
the House were nominated, Beckley
stated that he would not run against
father-in-Iaw Moses X. Nakuina, who
runs on the Republican ticket, but af-
ter the result of the Home Rule con-
vention was announced, Beckley made
up his mind to run anyhow and hurt
the Home Rule ticket. Beckley will
not be elected, but it is certain that he
will knife Kahaulelio and possibly Ma
kuina, who runs on the r epublican
ticket from the Molokai district.

TWO VICTIMS OF
VIOLENT DEATH
CHINESE HANGED HIMSELF
NEAR HONOMU AND A PORTU-
GUESE BOY KILLED BY TRAIN.

Sheriff Brown received notice Satur-
day Of two deaths by violence on the
Island of Hawaii one of the victims
was killed by a railroad train and the
other committed suicide The suicide
was a Chinese named Young Wan. He
appears to have been sick He went
to a tree in the Kapehu Gulch and
hanged himself The body was dis
covered on October 2. He had been liv-
ing with relatives near Honomu and
left the house on September 20. He
was not seen alive again, his body be-
ing found hanging from the tree.
The other case was that where An
tone Gomez, a Portuguese boy, was
killed at Naalehu, Kau, the latter part
of September. The boy was near the
track on September 2S and saw the
plantation train approaching. He
ran toward the train and tried to get
aboard a flat car but fell underneath
the wheels which passed over his stom-
ach. The youth died the following day.
He was 10 years of age.
The cOroner's jury returned a verdict
to the effect that the death was an ac-
cident and eXonerated the engineer of
the railroad train from culpability, but
stated that the evidence went to show
that the plantation was extremely
negligent in operating its railroad sys-
tenn as there were no whisting posts.
