paper makers OF America were SLOW

In some respects they showed the

RUBBER COMPANY IS
IN GOOD CONDITION

A meeting of the Koolau Rubber Co.
was held at Lahaina last week and the
affairs of the company appear to be in
most prosperous condition. Vice
President James Mallory acted as chair
man, in the absence of President James
A. Coke and reported that there were
PSI acres of land belonging to the com
pany now planted with Ceara rubber.
which was in fine condition and that
the planting of Hevea was about TO
commence. He stated that one-half of
the Ceara trees which had been plant
ed would be ready to tap in about
fourteen months from now.
The affairs of the company are said
TO be in the best of condition and
the trees are growing well, after a
most prosperous season. While the
growing of rubber in this territory is
only in an experimental stage, She
outlook as reported from the various
plantations appears to be very en-
couraging.

FIND ANOTHER CASE
OF CHAMBERS HERE

A third case Of CHAMBERS has been
discovered In the city.
Last Saturday a horse which is used
in local delivery wagon appeared to
be i'll and the attention of Territorial
Veterinarian Norgaard was called to it.
The case was one of pronounced gland
ers and the animal was sent to the
quarantine stable, where it will be kept
for tests and then destroyed.
There has been no connection found
between the three cases which have
appeared but recently. In the last
case which was found, the horse had
been out at pasture for some time and
his sickness was noticed the first day
that he was brought in and put to
work. Every possible preeantion to
prevent further spread of the incurable
disease viii be taken by the Terri
torial authorities.
