DAIRY FARM

Eben Low scored In the Parker
ranch case yesterday, on the question
as TO whether the court would go into
the matter OF the advisablllty OF the
partition of tho ranch. In cash or by
sale. 1t appears that Carter. the guar
dian OF the minor Annie 7. X. Parker,
whom Low is seeking to have remov-
ed. had made an application TO the
court to have the ranch partltioned or
sold, In proceeding apart from that
now being tried before Judge Lindsay.
Low was on the stand all day, and
went into a general knock of all things
under the Carter management That
of course. was what he was expected
to do to make his case.
Along late in the afternoon, Just be-
fore court adjourned, his attorney
Magoon. got to the point of asking
about the possibility of the partition
OF the ranch In kind, and the preser-
walton OF the rights Of the minor under
such partition. Mr.. Kinney, OF Car
ter's counsel. at once objected, saying
that this was a matter that would be
threshed out in due time in the par
tition proceeding proper. To this Ma
COON replied that his contention was
that any proceeding In partition was
ground for the removal of Carter as
guardian, as jeopardizing the interests
Of the minor. The point was argued
at length by Magoon and Kinney. and
then Judge Lindsay overruled the OBJ
lection.
The examination of Low proceeded
after that upon this point. and was
still in progress at the hour of ad-
journment. The examination yester-
day took very wide range, Low
claiming that it was possible to do
much more with the Parker ranch than
was done with it under the Carter
management.
"They could raise corn and hogs on
It," witness said, enough hogs to sup
ply the Honolulu market. And that
grown there as well as in California.
Also, not enough is made of the dairy
ing interest on the ranch. Out of 49,
900 cows, l should say that they could
get at least one thousand that would
give from six to seven quarts of milk
each per day. That should supply
enough butter to fill the island demand.
And 1t should add from $4,000 to $780,
900 a year to the income from the
ranch"
Mr.. Low likewise objected to the
manner of handling cattle shipped
from the ranch. 1.-THE Parker ranch,
and the island ranches generally" he
said, follow the old and brutal meth
| cd of shipping cattle. Now, there Is a
very much more humane way of ship
ping them than that"
do / guess right when l say that
| the more humane way was invented
| by your" broke in Attorney Kinney,
of Parker's counsel.
II can show you the diagram of the
way If you do not believe me-" said
Low.
Hold on there" interrupted Ma
COON. "Do you object to the ques-
tom"
"Not at ALL" said Kinney, that was
merely an impertinent intersection
"Then we will pay no attention to
| it," said Magoon.
And then he proceeded to bring out
| Lows dissatisfaction with Carter g
| methods, leading up to the point of the
proposed partition. And upon this,
when the court had overruled his OBJ
lection, Kinney saved an exception.
