Getting Down to Business DARWIN.

Getting Down to Business Dairyin-.
The first Dairy Test Association in
New England was organized a few DAYS
ago at Durham, n H., under direction
of the Experiment Station workers.
The membership is made up of pro-
gressive dairy farmers The object is
to cooperate in getting records which
show the quality Of milk in the various
herds and the cost Of feeding. The as
ISOLATION will engage an agent to do
the testing and each member will pay
his part Of the expense. The plan has
been found to work successfully in
other parts of the country and enabled
dairymen to find out just what their
herds are doing and what changes are
needed. The experiment stations of
New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine,
it Is understood, will encourage the
formation Of these associations in all
dairy sections

Keeping the Cider Sweet.

The keeping of cider as sweet as DOS
sible represents another important task
IN connection with this product. Sassa4
fras bark, or ground cinnamon. are
among the preseryatives most used in
rural homes. In cities the taste is Oft
en- spoiled by too much preservatives.
Left to itself, sweet cider soon becomes
hard. Hard cider is Intoxicating. and.
on account of the difficulty in determine
ing just when alcohol begins to enter
into sweet cider many temperance peo-
pie are inclined to put the ban on all
cider
Vinegar Is obtained by placing bar
rels Of cider in the sun Or in a warm
cellar. The bungholes of the barrels
are always left open. Mother of vine
gar Is put into each barrel in small
quantities, and helps in the TRANSFORMED
ton of cider to vinegar. very large
per cent of the cider that comes from
the present-day cider mill is eventually
turned into vinegar.
1t Is a fact not appreciated by every
one that the quality of cider, and the
cther products of the cider as we'll, is
dependent upon the kind of apples that
are used. Those people who insist on
using the scrubs of the orchard for
CIDER cannot expect the best results.
IN some states apples are grown espe-
cially for cider A ripe apple and one
that Is particularly full Of juice will
make better cider, better jelly and bet
ter apple butter than ones that do not
possess these qualities. Among the
common varieties of apples the Bald
win is much desired for the cider mill.

'UIfF FICULl
PROBLEMS

Some questions likely to be difncult
have been created through the failure
of the attempt to domicile colony OF
Molokans upon the lands occupied by
the Makee Sugar Co. Possibly one or
more OF the questions may require the
arbitrament of the courts to decide
For the present, however, the Govern
ment will endeavor to effect an amic-
able agreement with the company, or
Col. Spalding, upon the rights of both
sides.
That there is a good deal to be said
on both sides Is freely acknowledged
by the Government Mr.. Fairchiid,
representing the principal owner of the
company's interests, had lengthy con-
ference with Governor Carter yester-
day. For one thing the Governor as
sured MIR. Fairchild that the Molokans
did not state to him that he (Mr. F.
as manager) had refused to give them
work. What they had stated was that
he would not give them employment
except as day laborers.
There was but one matter of differ
ence yesterday between the Governor
and Mr.. Fairchild. This was where
Mr.. Fairchild seemed to be of the opin-
ion that, since the Molokans had fail
ed to comply with their contract. Col.
Spaldlng was entitled not only to take
off the company's 1908 crop, but 10 be
given renewal for a year of the en-
tire lease of Kapaa.
1t was the Impression OF the Com
missioner OF Public Lands that consent
was given to their taking Off the crop
and that whatever work they gave to
the Molokans would not be a loss to
them but, in the event of failure by
the Molokans to do what they had un-
dertaken, the company would be allow
ed to carry on the cultivation to ma
turity. The question involved is wheth-
er the Makee Sugar Co. are entitled to
the control and occupancy OF all that
they have got, including rice lands,
pasture lands and lands that are lying
fallow
Now that Col Spalding repudiates
the contract on account OF the Molo-
kans' breach of its conditions, the
question is whether he can go on plant
ing cane that he knows cannot be TAX
EN- Off until after the expiration of his
lease. This is one matter that the
courts may be called on to decide.
Governor Carter, having been absent
when the compact was arranged. Is not
disposed to positive attitude upon the
matter until the facts are made per-
fectly clear to him.
There appears TO be no option on the
part OF the Molokans but to surrender
their contract. They are unable to
maintain themselves without work
One-half their number have come down
here with the intention of returning to
the Coast and they are writing to their
friends there advising them against
any more coming here.

WATERLESS
LAHA|NA

1t IL on question of the Govern
ments authority to purchase water
from Pioneer Mil Company that the
hitch in Lahaina towns water supply
occurred.
An appropriation was made by last
Legislature OF $4,000 to purchase wa
ter for the use of the people of La
haina. Now the question is brought
up to the Government as to whether
that appropriation can be applied TO
the purchase of water from Pioneer
Mil Co. 1t will be remembered that a
long standing dispute over water, be-
tween the Board of Education on be-
half OF Lahainaluna Seminary and
Pioneer Mil Co., was settled some time
ago by compromise under which the
school and the plantation were to take
the water respectively at certain speci-
fed hours. Lahaina town was not In
the deal.
1.-THE difficulty has been all along"
Governor Carter said yesterday. that
water works were established in Laha-
Ina and the collection of water rates
begun, when the town did not own any
water.
But Mr.. Barkhausen, manager of
Pioneer MIL Co., ls expected up on sat
urday, when we hope to complete plans
that had been made prior to getting
the appropriation.
'We shall either have to condemn or
to buy. If we can buy 1t will save the
time for condemnation proceedings.
Before last Legislature Mr.. Barkhaus-
en- agreed either to buy or to sell the
water"
No doubt some way will be found, It
being case of sheer necessity, OF
abollshing the anomaly of water works
without water which Lahaina has sud
denly been brought up against, though
having received temporary relief as
already reported from the Superintend-
ent OF Public instruction in the form
OF supply OF water from LahainalUna
Seminary.

A VERDICT OF VIOLENT DEATH.

(From Wednesdays Advertiser)
The inquest into the death of Kali,
the wife of George Wainee. who was
murdered at Kalihi Camp on Sunday,
was concluded at late hour last night,
the verdict saddling the crime for the
1cul deed on the husband. who has been
under arrest since Sunday afternoon.
The evidence of Ave neighbors, who
had witnessed the assault on the
woman, was taken and medical evil
dence was given by DR.. Mcdonald to
the effect that death had resulted from
hemorrhage OF the brain brought on
by injuries inflicted. The doctor stated
In answer to question that it was
impossible for these injuries to have
been self-infllcted The verdict was;
1--WE find the deceased came to her
death on the 10th day of June, 1906.
from hemorrhage Of the brain caused
by being beaten on the head by, so
this jury believes, one George Wainee,
a Hawaiian by birth"

LIHUE. Kauai June n.-On Satur-
day evening, the 9th instant, the Nor
iison Memorial Hall at MaKaweli, just
completed, was formally opened by q
Lall given by the employees of the Ha-
waiian Sugar Company.
The hall is a gift from the late Mrs.
Hugh Morrison: in her will she be-
queathed the sum of two thousand
dollars to be used In the erection OF
either a hospital building or a social
hall for the use of the employees OF the
Hawaiian Sugar Company; as the
Plantation is provided with the former,
II was decided to build a hall; the site
chosen adjoins the Office premises OH
the ''mauka" or north side, which CEN
trail location is convenient to all the
employees living at the mill settlement.
The building is "T'' shaped. one story
high, and contains two rooms; the
main hall is at the back. running par
allel with the street and is twenty-four
feet by forty feet in front of this is
a room eighteen feet square, with bay
window and large double doors. on
three sides of the front room is a We
randa ten feet in width and on to this
the main hall opens from either side;
the internal arrangements are such
that, with sliding doors, the two rooms
can be thrown into one; in the larger
room two billiard tables will be placed,
while the smaller room will be used
as a library and reading room. The
building is equipped with modern con-
veniences and is a credit to its de-
slgner and builder, Mr.. James Dyson.
the head carpenter Of the plantation,
who. although a comparatively young
man, enjoys the distinction of being the
Oldest man in length of service OH the
plantation; he was engaged op the
first construction work done by the
Hawaiian Sugar Company and has re-
nained in its employ ever since.
The employees OF the company take
great pride in this generous gift.
which is fitting tribute to the memory
of Hugh Morrison, through whose able
management Makaweli plantation was
made such a success.
Mr.. Morrison assumed control of the
affairs OF the Hawaiian Sugar Com
pany in 1901; the ditch which was to
convey the waters of the Hanapepe
stream onto the plantation lands was
al tne time III course Ol
The only land which had been planted
by the company was few acres in
the valley intended for seed. The mill
had been ordered from Scotland, but
no part of it had arrived; locomotives
end railroad material had not left the
factory; the land between the Hama
pepe and Waimea streams, excepting
in the valley, was a vast tract with no
sign of vegetation save bunch grass
and weeds; the so-called Mckinley bill
had just gone into effect which was
to reduce the profit on the first esti-
mated crop of Makaweli over half a
million dollars; the outlook for the
sugar industry in Hawaii was dark;
the small stockholders in the company
reluctantly paid the assessments as
they We're made: the larger ones often
met them with difficulty. But for the
pluck and determination of the men at
the head of the project 1t would have
heen nbandoned. Under the circum-
stances every dollar spent must be for

THE BURNS WE'RE FATAL.

DIR. A. N. Sinclair of the U. s. quar-
antine service, testifying as an expert
in the Douse case yesterday, gave the
unqualified opinion that Yamagada
died of burns and not, as the Maui
physicians concluded, from natural
causes. He maintained this opinion
under rigid cross-examination by Mr..
Kinney.
Between one-ffth and oue-sixth of
the surface of the victim IS body and
members was burned according to his
estimate. Though he could not quote
any medical authority which would
make that amount of burning
fatal he said:
"My medical opinion still is that
the man in question died of burns.
Everything of medical opinion is not
in the books
DR.. Sinclair was put to great deal
of calculating, on the basis of printed
authority, relative to the superficial
area of the human body and the burn
ing thereof which would cause death.
A medical book rendered by Mr.. Kin
ney for perusal of the jury was hand
ed to them, Mr.. Humphreys for the
prosecution offering no objection.
"Would it not be a fair presump-
tion,' Mr.. Kinney asked, "that if the
burns did not cover one-ffth of the
surface the death was not caused by
burns2'
"You misstate medical opinion" DR..
Sinclair rejoined. "Medical opinion is
that if certain proportion of the body
is burned the person will die, but it
does not say that a lesser proportion
of burning will not cause death. If
the proportion is less than one-ffth
the prognosis is in his favor. He is
then less likely to die
AT this stage of the cross-examina-
tion Mr. Kinney produced the jar con-
tanning the vital organs of Yamagada
and, under his questions, Dr. Sinclair
explained their conditions to the jury,
going over from the witness stand to
the jury box for that purpose. This
was close to the hour of adjournment.
DIR. Sinclair had under direct exam
ination by Mr.. Humphreys described
the condition of the kidneys. He had
examined them under the microscope,
which the Maui doctors had not, and
his opinion of their condition differed
from theirs. He found them affected
by acute parenchimatous nephritis,
whereas they had given the affection
as acute interstitial nephritis. Then,
after answering n Hypothetical question
with his opinion that the man died
from the effect of the burns, he stated
that the particular type of nephritis
he had diagnosed was caused by the
burns.
The burns described in the hypothet-
ical question. the witness answering
II direct interrogatory said, We're of n
nature sufficient toNeause death. I'M
der such injuries the patient might live
n week II he did not die within the
first forty,cight hours from shock.
The specific theory of DIR. Sinclair
WAS that the condition of the kidneys
was probably due 10 a large increase
of work owing 20 tho loss of large
area Of skin. II Is a matter OF lay
common knowledge that the skin aud
the kidneys divide between them the
function Of relieving the body of waste
matter,
