INVESTIGATING L|MU
AS POSSIBLE FOODSTUFF
Heroic Explorations Of Miss Reed on the Coral
Reefs Of Mo|okai--TidaI Wave Strikes Pukoo
With Prodigious Force.

| PUKOO, Molokai, August 5.-Limu
or Hawaiian sea-moss, is being inves
tigated at this place by the U. S. De
| partment of Agriculture, to determine
] its value as a food product. The in
vestigation is being conducted by Miss
Reed of the Kamehameha Manual
School of Honolulu. Miss Reed, after
a thorough examination of the Molokai
coast from Kamalo to Pelekunu, in
| Guiding Pukoo and Halawa, sandwich
| ed in between, in quest of the many
varieties known to exist in the island
| waters, leaves today for Honolulu in
the steamer Likelike, and next week
will leave for Kauai to continue her
search. Hawaii and Maui coast have
already been explored. When all Miss
Reeds data is at hand, it will form
the basis of comprehensive bulletin
to be issued under the auspices of the
Federal Experiment Station of Homo
lulu.
1t may not be generally known to
Honolulu housewives that the limu is
capable of Deing incorporated as a
food product in a pudding, the flavor
of the sea-moss imparting a taste, once
tempted, to be desired.
Miss Reed has been experimenting
here in making puddings, but as she is
only working in primitive way, is
not yet ready to make public the recipe
or formula. However, the imu is first
cleansed and then bleached 1t is then
added to pot of milk, with other in
gradients, and boiled. The pudding is
formed from the skimmed-off portion,
which when CONCEALED forms tasty
substance not unlike blanc mango In
form. 1t is milk-white in color.
But all this is in the experimental
stage. The chemical analysis is yet to
be ascertained, and its value as a food
product determined from this stand
point. Then the supply is to be es-
timated. All things favorable another
industry may be started in the Hawai-
ian Islands, and the only experts in
gathering the moss from the wave
dashed coral reefs, the Hawaiians, may
yet find lucrative employment thereby.
In the interest of science, Miss Reed
also intends writing magazine arti- |
Gle, as scientific study, ON the Hawai-
ian nmu. AS scientist, Miss Reed
braves many dangers to acquire infor-
nation. In rain and shine, she rides
along the coast on pony, in bifurcat-
ed skirts, macintosh handy to pro-
tect her from the rain. A bag for car
rying specimens, and camera COM |
plete her outfit. Well, she also carries |
wading shoes, which she dons when |
ready to wade out on coral reefs. A |
Hawaiian outrigger canoe, manned by /
a stalwart native, is frequently made
use of by her, to carry her to outlying
reefs, from half to three-quarters of !
a mile from the shore, where she OBJ
tains her choicest specimens. This is
not the safest work for an Anglo
Saxon, unaccustomed to the treacher-
Dus seas breaking across the coral, but |
so far Miss Reed has met with no mis-
haps, except when, last week, she and
a party headed by Fred. w. Beckley,

went to Halawa in a whale-boat and
got weather-bound for three days.
TIDAL WAVE VISITATION.

great tidal wave struck the Pu-
koo coast about two weeks ago. 1t
was several feet in height, working
over the tops of the fish ponds, wrench
ing the doors off the steamer freight
house on shore. A great breach in the
stone wall, enclosing fish pond owned
by Mrs. Nakuina, was ripped open.
This wall is several feet thick both at
the base and top, but the wave tore it
loose as if it were of paper. The wall
was built so long ago that the oldest
inhabitant remembers nothing con-
corning its erection.

Willow Culture in New York State.
One Of the crops that has for some
time been attracting attention to Ly-
Dns and Galen is that of the basket
willow, which has grown to consider
able dimensions in these two towns.
The crop has just been marketed and
Clyde and Lyons have the distinction
Of being two of the most important
shipping points for this commodity.
In the two towns named it is esti-
mated that there are nearly three hun.
bred acres devoted to the culture of
these willows. An average yield this
year was six tons to the acre, and an
average price of about SIT per ton was
received for the crop that has been
sold. Syracuse is the market to which
all of the willows grown in this vi
entity find their way. When the will
lows are stripped Of their bark and
otherwise prepared for manufacturing
purposes they are worth about $125
per ton.
It is said that the first willows
grown in this part of the country were
planted by John A. Blackburn in 1852.
Mr.. Blackburn came from the South
and gained some knowledge of willow
culture near his former home in Mary
and.-Clyde Times.

With Cables Scared Him.
"As it was my first visit in New
York. and as no first visit there is
complete without some pea-and-shell
experience. I was prepared to have
something happen during my stay"
said q local w~eb-footer, lately returned
from q trip east.
"But l hadn't expected to be bun

"sWell, I'll be hornswoggled!' said
L. At that moment one of his confed-
crates, also dressed like a hackman,
approached and tried to reassure me
by saying that the fellow hadn't stolen
my grip; that he had only hurried
off to get his place in the line of
hacks. I noticed that the line was

One reason why Peruna has found per
manent use in so many homes is that it
contains no narcotic of any kind. Peruna
is perfectly harmless. 1t can be used any
length of time without acquiring a drug
habit. Peruna does not produce temporary
results. 1t is permanent in its effect.
It has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by remov-
ing the cause of catarrh. There are a null
titude of homes where Peruna has been
used on and off for twenty years. Such a
thing could not be possible if Peruna con-
tanned any drugs of a narcotic nature.
