This Is the Greatest Year the

FOR PAST NINE YEARS

washington, Nov. 30.-''The Farmers
Thanksgiving" occupies conspicuous
place in the annual report OF the secre-
tary of agriculture. Mr.. Wilson always
makes it a point to say something IN
his report that tends to cheer up the
filler of the soil and make him glad he
is on earth. This time 1t Is a recitai OF
a few things for which the farmer
should be thankful.
ssrThe farmer" observes the secretary,
..has received much for which to be
thankful. During the f1rst hal1 OF the
year he was threatened with general
crop failure throughout the length anu
breadth of the country east OF the
Rocky mountains. The very last day
was exhausted that could be W1thnelo
from crop growth and still leave mar :
vest worth taking Every necessary
day for the development or the corn
cron was worth 10000, 900 bushels OF
corn. Cotton needed a longer time
and offered to pay 30,00oO0O pounds OF
lint for the favor of each day OF CROWN
during the full term. Wheat ofrered
over 100000 bushels a day. tobacco T.
600 GOO pounds potatoes 100000 bushels
and beets 10000 pounds of sugar
Farm Resources.
1.-The entire wealth production OF the
farms was at stake, and was depend
emit on a crop growing season or sun1-
cient length and every one OF its days
was worth $50 O0O 900 to the farmer and
the nation. At the end of the harvest
the farmer has provided the country
with commodities that are equal to the
average of recent years in quantity and
vastly more than are needed for nation
al consumption. His labor and his
knowledge have been rewarded with
the products of the sun whose value is
S7,412, 000, 000."
Wealth production on the farms in
1907 transcends the high record of 1906,
which was itself a record breaker by
S657 600 900. Taking the 1899 crops as an
average of 100 the value of the 1903
crop was 125. the 1904 crop 131. the 1905
crop 134, the 1906 crop 143 and the 1907
crop 157 During the past nine years
the wealth created on the farms of this
country aggregated $4,000 600, 900.
The Creditor of All.
A great fall in oats this year below
the average and much smaller de-
clines in wheat, tobacco, hops, flax
seed and buckwheat have been coun-
terbalanced, and more than that, by
increases above the average in cotton.
hay, barley rice, rye and potatoes.
The present indications are that every
crop except hops will considerably, If
not very much, exceed in value the
average of the past five years
Extremely large rates of grain are
observed for corn, oats. barley, rye,
hay, tobacco. potatoes, rice and cotton
seed and the rates of grain would be
notable in any ordinary year in the
case of wheat, cotton lint and buck
wheat.

DID THE COWS EAT
HIBISCUS LUNCHES?

Today Judge Andrade will render
judgment as to whether the cows be-
longing to Mrs Margaret Lishman are
common nuisances or not. The mat
ter was up in the police court yester-
day, complaints having been made
that the herd of mixers belonging to
the Lishman dairy made free lunches
of the hibiscus hedges along Wilder
avenue, to and from their pasture. The
evidence of a number of the residents
along the line of march was to the
effect that the animals lived off the
country, paying especial attention TO
raiding young hibiscus hedges. The
two herders swore that they gave the
bovines no leisure to lunch along the
road.
Some time ago Sheriff Iaukea called
the owners attention to complaints
being made and an extra herd boy was
put on to keep the cows in the
straight and narrow path.

HENDRy GIVES
UP HIS OFFICE
GoodnaturedIy Abdicates That
the Grand Jury May
Have a Room.

For four days the Federal Grand
Jury has been occupying the office of
United States Marshal Hendry, that
good natured official and his deputies
giving up the office during the hours
the grand jury is in session, and doing
their own work during the noon hour
and before and after hours.
While the United States District
Court is in session there is no room
in which the Federal Grand Jury can
hold it's sessions, and hence this abdi-
cation of his office by Marshal Hendry
and the Inconvenience to which he and
his office force subject themselves. in
order that the work of the grand jury
may go on uninterruptedly.
The grand jury yesterday had large
number of witnesses from Koolau be-
fore it, investigating the charges of
subornation of perjury made against
NJ. NJ. Harmon the Mormon elder in
charge of the church, colony, and plan-
tation at Laie in the absence of Bishop
WooIley. The charge is made against
Harmon in connection with the
charges on which George K. Kekauoha
was convicted recently, and is in eff
feet that he sought to influence wit
nesses not to testify as to matters in
which the church was, concerned. A
very large number of witnesses have
been subpoenaed in this connection
and the corridor in the Judiciary
building was filled with them all day.
The grand jury continued in session
until o'clock yesterday afternoon,
and will take UP the matter again this
morning, the witnesses being excused
until that time. Many of the witnesses
are the same as those who have al
ready testified in the Kekauoha case.
and as subpoenaed in some of the
other cases growing out of that.

Dr. Etmbau the eye specialist has been giving valuable information with out charge to many residents of Skag-
 way during the past week, over sixty standardization having been made. The doctor is making DO charge for ex amiaali0us during his present stay in order that as many as possible may be- come enlightened as to bis method of determining error in reiracliOn and diseases Ot the eye, and incidentally
 that be may build a permanent client age. There is no doubt that every resi- dent of Skagway who desires to protect their eyes from excessive strain will
 take advantage of this opportunity and
 find out the true condition of their eyes. The doctor states that he supplies glasses to those desiring to purchase, at the same price charged in Seattle or Sal Francisco for the same class Of work. 2t.
