The Clarinda Poultry, Butter and Egg
Co. have been doing an enormous bus
mess at their big plant in this city.
Last week they handled over thirteen
cars of poultry in addition to shipping
several cars to their plants at Creston
and Clarinda. This is the greatest
poultry country in the west and they
are getting more poultry here than they
can handle. Next year will see the
plant greatly enlarged and the working
force correspondingly increased.

business last Friday. He informs us
that he has accepted a position as

WAS THE BOARD
DONE UP2''
MOORE SAYS SUPERVISORS PAID
$4,000 FOR PROPERTY NOT
WORTH I2GOO

Two members of the Oahu Board Of
Supervisors lat least, appear to be
considerably dissatisfied with the
Kunst purchase at Waikiki. This is
the purchase of a lease for a beach lot,
for $4,000, the lot to be made a part of
Kapiolani park. At the meeting of
the supervisors last night Archer sug-
gested selling the property back and
Moore said it wasn't worth $4,000
The county's paid $4,000 for some
thing that isn't worth $1,000" said
Moore, when the matter was brought
up.
Archer said no use was being made
of the land and he would like to sell it
back to the Territory at the price paid
for it, but no formal motion was put.
Lucas resented the proposition Of SELL
ing and declared that the purchase
had been good one. I'VE will make
use of it quick enough when we get
a decision about spending money" he
said. Archer wanted to know what
decision was referred to, and Lucas
said the lot was tied up by the ques-
ton of the Boards right to spend
money on it, as submitted to the SUI
preme court in the Kapiolani park test
case.
Lucas said this morning that it was
the intention to improve the lot i'm
mediately If the board finds it has pow
er. 1t will be made a part of the
park and will be the only place where
the public will have free access to the
beach at Waikiki. Moore doesn't
know what he is talking about when
he says the lot is not worth 81 600"
said Lucas. 1T is worth more than
the $4,000 we paid, and can be sold
any day for more than that"
Incidentally, Moore is getting roast
for Inconsistency He was one of those
who voted to pay $4,000 for the lease
which he declared last night was not
worth $4,000.

in picking her up about o'clock. We

CONNECT:

Considcra bic conjecture was raised
this morning as regards the failure Of
the launch with the reception commit
tee aboard to pick up the La Paloma
Captain Macfarlane says that he hove
to not far from the bell buoy for it
was when he heard that that he stop
ped Navigator Mosher confirms the
statements Of the Captain.
r. w. Hebron who was on the launch
is at sea regarding the failure to make
connections. 1--WE went out and cruis-
ed for two hours trying to locate the
yacht but we could not. We went up
as far as Diamond Head and then
out to sea so that We could see around
the point. We saw nothing of the La
Paloma. Then we ziggaged back but
did not locate her. We spent two
hours trying to find her.
Finally we saw boat burn two
signals and we thought that that was
surely the yacht but it proved to be
the pilot
1--WE finally gave it up and came back
and telephOned to Diamond Head but
Charlie was sure about the signals. We
were sure that the La Paloma was not
in sight and could hardly believe the
news when we heard that she lay off
the harbor all night
Diamond Head" Charlie was asked
as to the position of the La Paloma
when she crossed the line. He stated
that she was about as close inshOre
as good seamanship would naturally
bring them.

ANOTHER
TRENT AFFAIR

The Supervisors have another Trent
affair" on their hands This time ft
is apparently a very small matter, bus
there is no telling whether it will get
bigger. Last night the Board return
ed to Trent a warrant which he sent
in with the amount left blank, for
salary of his deputy, with a message
to the effect that the amount was the
same as before. The warrant was not
passed.
Trents last warrant for the same
purpose was sent in blank Deputy
Clerk Buffandeau filled in the amount
of the monthly salary, over Trents
signature, the sum being $500. The
warrant passed, but Auditor Bickneu
had a kick to make against this way
Of filling in the sum- and when blank
warrant came this month Buffandeau
wouldn't fill i'm the sum So the war
rant went to the Board blank last
night and it was ordered sent back 10

HINTS FOR FARMERS


In feeding live stock all animals
should have as much as they will eat
up clean and never enough to waste
If when fed on concentrated food they
begin to show their dislike to it the
quantity should be diminished and
more bulky matter substituted, but ev-
erything depends upon the observation
of the farmer. and it is easy for him to
know how TO regulate his manner of
feeding. An important matter in meas
uring and weighing is the knowledge
the farmer always possesses of what
he is doing, and memorandum book
is a necessary adjunct TO the system,
which serves not only in summing up
the amount of feeding material on
hand. but also assists in the future
management as well as being guide
In the rotation and selection of the
crops most necessary the succeeding
year Every farmer should know what
he is feeding to his stock, its value and
the benefit derived from it.-Philadel-
phia Record

MoIasScs For Pigs.

In a pig feeding experiment Mt Fort
Collins mOlasses from the sugar mill
was utilized as a complement to corn
and shorts. The mOlasses was mixed
with water and the grain added, suffi-
cient to make thin slop. Molasses
was also put in the drinking water.
which was relished greatly by the pigs.
for after a time they would not drink
water without IT, The pigs averaged
eighty-three pounds each ut the time
the experiment began and 212 pounds
each at the close. They were fed 107
days. 1t required 3.3 pounds Of grain
and Is pounds Of molasses for each
pound Of gain. At local prices for the
grain and molasses the cost of each
pound of gain was 1861 cents. Consid-
erlng that no pasture was used, these
results show a high feeding value for
molasses. The pork from these hogs
was very fine.

Why the Sen Is Green.

The green color of ocean water de-
ponds upon the number of medusae
and other minute animal forms which
inhabit It, The deep green northern
seas literally swarm with these minia-
ture creatures. In some places as
many as 12S OF them have been found

this proportion a cubic foot of water
would contain 221. 1S4, a cubic fathom

From soundings made in the districts
where these creatures are found in

that the waters will average a mile in
depth. Whether these forms occupy
the whole depth is uncertain. Provid-
ed, however, the depth to which they
extend is but $50 fathoms the above

occur within a space Of one square
