later there was a firmer feeling. The

are all that could be desired, and there
is every indication of a splendid crop

| HILO, December 22.-At a meeting OF
the Board of Supervisors a letter was

office as he was not subject to the con-
troll of the supervisors.
Mr.. Fernandez then moved that lin

Mr.. Aluli was reinStated later, at

county attorney was instructed to go
to Hamakua to prepare more specific
charges against the deputy sheriff.
Before that stage was reached there
was a scene. Carl S. Smith appeared
as attorney for Richard and entered a
demurrer to the original charges, on
supervisors did not seem to know just
what to do with such thing and Mr..
Smith, in explaining it's purport, sup

Fernandez said it would then be up to
him to defend himself.

S10,719. To this is to be added the

DIAGRAM OF THE GREENHOUSE.
would take water too long. to make the
trip with the houses 800 feet long,. It
is hardly possible for farmer to make
a small greenhouse pay if his time is
worth anything unless he takes his pay
out in satisfaction, because the open
ing and closing Of the ventilating sash
and attending the fire take more time
than most folks think, and the smaller
the house is the greater Is the cost per
square foot Of roof in taking care OF
it. I would call chem an expensive lux
ury for most farmers.
Almost any nan who has gumption
enough to want a greenhouse could
build one by using hotbed sash for the
roof, supported by two rows OF posts
for the outside walls and two rows OF
gas pipe posts inside; they would cause
less shade than wooden posts of equal
strength, and short gas pipe posts can
be used outside the boards along the
aisle by staying the posts with a wire.
Use one sash ON the north slope and
two on the south slope, and enough more
by the side Of these to make the house
the desired length.
Hot water is by far the best heat for
g. small house. and q water heater such
as were used in railway cars, ought to
be large enough to do the business. The
piping must be arranged so that there
are no air pockets to check the circula-
ton of the water. The average winter
will take about 16 pounds of soft coal
per square foot of roof. A hillside will
do if it slopes south; then it would an
swer as wind-b1eak and not shade the
roof. Cold. windy days take the most
coal. By using regular hotbed sash for
q roof they could be taken off, after
danger of frost is past, and stored away
or piled and covered and the beds used
for garden during the summer. The
diagram shows end view of house.

While no woman is entirely free from

be the plan of nature that women

It provides a safe and sure way of es-

Something About This Orchard En-
envy, and How It May Be Sue
cessfully Combated.

The Maine experiment station, Orono,
Me-. has just issued bulletin No. lO9, up
on the apple maggot and other insects.
The bad work OF the apple maggot Is
done while it is in the larval stage, or
just after Matching from the egg. The
adult insect is fly, somewhat smaller
than the common house fly, and is read
lily distinguished by four dark, irregu-
lar bands across the wings. 1t is found
in orchards from July until frost, during
which time the females are engaged In
piercing or stinging the skin of the ap-
pie with sting-like ,ovipositor and
leaving in each wound an egg, buried in
the flesh of the apple. Each female can
lay from 300 to 400 eggs. After hatch
ing the maggOts tunnel through the
flesh of the fruit and feed upon it until
they are full grown. These tunnels
often lie directly beneath the skin and
on the light-colored varieties, thus CIV
ing the insect the popular name "Rail-
road worm" But although the mag
got comes close to the skin it never
breaks through and is thus always pro-
tected and cannot be affected by spray
ing.
Remedies.-The presence of the mag
got hastens the ripening OF the fruit
and much of that attacked drops as
windfalls. Thus the destruction OF
windfalls is one of the most effective
steps in the destruction OF the pest.
Hogs or sheep should he kept in the or
chard tn eat the wind!alls All canning
refuse should be destroyed. The pupae,
or insects in the she'll form, that remain
in the bottoms of boxes and barrels in
which apples have been stored should
Be destroyed. Orchardists who pasture
their orchards with hogs and sheep re-
port light losses, while others in the
same locality, who do not do so, nor
destroy the windfalls in some other way,
report heavy losses.

SOAPS AS INSECTICIDES.
They Are Effective II the Soap Is Of
First-Class Quality-Make
Your Own Soap.

A communication from the New
York experiment station relative to
the quality of soaps for insecticides,
says:
Whale oil, or fish oil, soaps are
among the best of contact insecticides
If they are Of good quality, since they
are inexpensive, easy to use, safe and
effective. In practice, however, they
have been found to give varying re-
suits, some lots Of the solutions made
from such soaps failing to kill many
of the same kind of insects that other
lots of the same apparent strength
destroyed completely. The continued
occurrence of such failures cast sus-
picion upon the soaps, and examina-
lions at the experiment station, by the
exact methods Of the chemist. proved
that they vary to surprising extent.
The best sample contained four times
as much actual soap as the poorest
one, and one sample of a certain brand
was only half as good soap as an
other sample of the same brand from
a different package. So unreliable
were these soaps that the best solu-
ton of the problem appeared to be for
the users to make the soap at home,
if feasible, and q very few trials showed
the process of making to be very simple
and inexpensive.
The soap is made by thorough mixing
of easily obtained materials, without
heating. To make 40 pounds of soap,
containing 60 per cent. actual soap, re-
quires six pounds Of caustic soda, %
pounds Of fish oil and ~ gallons of
water. The soda Is first dissolved in the
water and the oil then added gradually
with constant and vigorous stirring.
This soap can be made at q cost Of three
cents pound or less. Used at the rate
of one pound to seven gallons Of water,
the solution will destroy plant lice,
scales and other soft-bodied sucking in
sects without injury to foliage.

A Wonderful Discovery.

Broadland, S. OAK, March 2s.-Quite a
sensation has been created here by the
publication Of the story of G. w. Gray,
who after special treatment for three
months was PROSTATE and helpless and
given up to die with Bright's Disease.
Bright's Disease has always been consid-
cred incurable, but evidently from the
story told by Mr.. Gray, there is remedy
which will cure it even in the most adj
,yaneed, stages. This is what he says:
II was helpless as little babe: My
wife and I searched everything and read
everything we could find about Bright's
Disease, hoping that would be able to
find remedy: After many many failures Tsi my
Kidney Pills. I praise God for the day
when + decided to do SO, for this remedy
met every phase of my case and in a
short time 1 was able to get out of bed,
and after few weeks treatment I was
a strong, well man. Dodd's Kidney Pills
saved my life.''
A remedy that will cure Bright's Dis
ease will cure any lesser Kidney Disease.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are certainly the
most wonderful discovery which modern
medical research has given to the world.

Under the Elkins law, any railroad
company which pays rebates In any
form, or any shipper. who accepts them,
is liable to a fine Of from $1,000 to
$40, 900, upon conviction. It also pro-
hibits the carrying of freight at less
than the published tariffs. The Inter-
state Commerce Commission Is en-
powered to detect and prosecute vio-
lators of this statute. President Knapp,
of the Commission, states that since

been as rare as forgery.
