davidaulloa/AmericanStories huggingface dataset:
The San Francisco call., 1908-10-10

The Junior Call wants the best
story you can write from United
States history in your own Ian
guage. The story must be plainly
written on one side of the paper
only. and must contains not more
than 300 words nor less than 200.
Only ore story is desired from
each contributor i'm this contest,
but it is desired that each story
shall be carefully written, and
especial attention given to neat
ness, penmanship, punctuation
and grammar.
Choose your own subject, pro-
yided it is true incident of
United States history; for in
stance, tell the story of Washing
toms winter at Valley Forge, or of
Arn0ld's treason, or airy other
story that you prefer. These two
are cited merely as illustrations.
There is not the slightest neees-
sity for haste in the history con-
test, because many vacation
stories now on hand will be pub
lisIed before publication of the
history stories begins; therefore,
take plenty of time and write a
good story, addressing it to The
Junior Call, Call building, San
Francisco.
On the first line write yeur sub.
Ject; on the next line, beginning
an inch from the left hand mar
gin, your name, age and address,
and, Ii you are in school, your
school and grade. Another very
important point is that each story
must be marked with the number
of words which it contains; write
this number i'm the upper left
hand corner of the first page.
As in the vacation contest, six
watches will be awarded each
week for the six best stories pub
lished.
DO not send in any more yaca.
ton letters. Send in your history
story whenever you have 1t COM
pleted to the best of your ability.

seashore. hunting crabs under the rocks
or going in wading. That was more
fun than sitting at our desks, doing
reading, writing or arithmetic.
Where we were is called Sausalito
and is small town, but Is plenty big
enough to have lots of fun in. When
we were very tired of wading we used
to take our lunch and go to Lime point.
From the cottage where we lived to
Lime point is two miles. On our way
we would pick flowers or think about
the good things in our lunch basket.
but you can bet that we were good
and hungry before supper time again.
After supperswe played tag or hide and
seek for a while. Then, perhaps, there
were stories from the older folks to
listen to.
What good time 1t all was, but it
was too shorti I wish vacation would
be here soon again, as 1 am going

A FISHING TRIP
GEORGE HOMER GREEN,

One day my uncle and went fishing
for striped bass. 1t is about an hours
drive to the clubhouse. On the way
down We had to pass through a wooded
place, where we saw some deer The
man who owns the place will not allow
any shooting on il, so the deer have
become very tame and come very near
the road.
1t was a very lonesome road. and 1T
seemed as If we would never get to the
clubhouse. But we arrived there at
last. I played in rowbeat while my
uncle fixed the lines.
IT was SO hot that he stayed at the
clubhouse and took nap while 1 went
at the house. We trolled for about an
hour, but did not get anything. Then
we tried bait fishing, but, as it hap
pened. we did not catch anything
1t was getting near dinner time, so

canned fruit. Furthermore, the fresh
fruit is more appreciated by the public.
Canned fruit is regarded as recourse
to fall back upon when fresh fruit
cannot be obtained. The bulk of the
Hawaiian pineapple crop has been mar
keted in the cans because of the diff.
fculties which have existed in the way
of fresh pineapple shipping, and lack of
organization On the part of the Hawai-
ian growers. These difficulties are be-
ing overcome. The output of canned
pineapples within the next few wears
will be many times as large as it is
now, and pineapple growers through or
ganization on broad lines must seek to
develop all fresh fruit markets as rap
idly as possible. Better prices will be
obtained for a constantly increasing
amount of fruit, and the advertisement
which the quality and flavor of our
fresh pineapples have, will greatly in
crease the demand for the caned prod
uct. No step seems more important
at the present time in the Hawaiian
pineapple industry than the develop
ment of markets to receive large auan.
titles of fresh fruit.
Among the other problems for this
season IS experiments are the testing of
the value of curing, the use of packing
materials and the facilities of different
steamships for the fresh fruit trade.
A record of the temperatures in cars
from plantation to port and of com
partments in which the fruit is steeved
on ship board will be made In this
way the Hawaii Experiment Station is
endeavoring to help the grower to solve
marketing problems.
The successful solution of the prob
lens of marketing pineapp1es cannot be
accomplished by working independents
ly, but only by associating together,
not in exclusive organizations, but on
a broad fraternal basis. If the matter
is taken up in this way it will soon be
possible to distribute all necessary in
formation regarding the methods of
obtaining clean pineapples among all
growers who wish to ship fresh pine
apples to the mainland, so that no in
Tested fruit will be offered, and there.
fore, the reputation of Hawaiian fruit
for cleanness and quality will be es-
tablished
If we all get together at the present
time there is no reason to doubt that
at least by the next shipping season
we shall be in the possession of means
for producing absolutely clean fruit
which cannot be objected to in any
market which we may wish to occupy
1t is high time, however, that the pine
apple growers should take up the mat
ter in business and scientific way with
a fixed determination of overcoming the
difficulties which now exist The future
of the whole fruit industry of Hawaii
depends upon the energy and determi-
nation with which the present problems
are met
Some pineapple growers have shipped
clean fruit this season and previous
seasons. With care and skill all can
do the same. When this is accomplish
ed there will be no hindrance to the /
