Division Report for July, 1908.

Division Report for July, 1908.
Honolulu, August l, 1908.
To the Honorable Board of Commits
soners of Agriculture and Forestry,
Honolulu, T. II.
Gentlemen: i have the honor to re-
port herewith upon the work of this
division during the month of July.
Inspection.
OF the thirty vessels boarded we
found twenty-three to have brought
matter subject to our inspection in the
mails, baggage and freight. The result
of the inspection is shown in the fol
lowing statistics:
Inspection During July, 1908.
$50 lots, containing 1920 parcels were
passed as free from pests.
Seven lots, containing twelve parcels,
were fumigated. These were principal
ly orchids and other plants from the
Orient having live scale bugs and aphis
on them.
Eight lots, containing 1877 parcels,
were burned. Scabby potatoes, wormy
turnips and peaches from the United
States. Also wormy sweet potatoes and
mealy bug infested plants from the
Orient brought by immigrants.
One lot of six parcels was refused
landing in accordance with Board reg
ulations prohibiting importation of
fresh fruit from the Orient.
Total number of lots examined for
the month was 675, containing 10,065
parcels.
Possible Pests Intercepted.
Scale bugs (Diaspinae), stem borers
and colony of black ant were col.
lected on lot of Denrobium (orchids)
brought from Manila by the Sheridan
on the 9Th. We fumigated the plants
to kill the scale and hand-killed the
borers. The only adult borer found was
killed in cyanide bottle and placed in
the collection for subsequent determi-
nation. The ants were preserved in al
cohol and sent to a specialist to be
| named.
A Japanese merchant not yet familiar
with our practice of excluding scabby
potatoes had lot of 100 sacks of badly
infested potatoes come from Seattle on
the sixth and at our instance destroyed.
His petition to be allowed to feed these
potatoes to pigs was refused For tactical
reasons and because, as DR.. Cobb has
proven, spores are not rendered inoc-
uous by passing through the alimeutary
canal of an animal.
Mr.. MacIntyre of the Moanalua gar.
dens returned from Manila on the 3lst
bringing with him five wardian cases,
with twenty mango plants in each, one
with twenty-four mangosteen sprouts,
several packages of mango seeds, and
four dozen mangosteen fruit. The last
was refused admission in accordance
with Board regulations prohibiting i'm
lportation of fresh fruits from the ORR
ent, Some of the mango plants were
found infested with aphis and all the
cases were fumigated with hydrocyaniC
acid gas. The mango seeds were in
speeted, found apparently pest free and
passed. The soil in the pots was orig
inally taken from here, and, in accord
ance with your instructions, was kept
in screened houses while in Manila. A
letter from the officer in charge of the
botanical gardens, Manila, brought by
Mr., MacIntyre and placed on our filel
testifies to that effect Upon examina
tion nothing was found in the sol
liable to become injurious and it wa
passed.

On Monday there was slight shower

AS matter of fact the dynamite

Canton Ohio, January S-The ind
ing Of a bloody hammer, hidden near

Grass S5aa kNsz.

The somewhat natural prejudice
which exists against vipers Is extend
ed, unfortunately though not, perhaps
unnaturally-to everything resembling
Il snake. and on this account the COM
mon grass snake is often needlessly
destroyed. 1t is perfectly harmless
and in Its fresh grayish green skin is
quite unmlstakable, yet If suddenly
encountered in Il hedgerOw or issuing
from a ditch death is generally its por-
ton. The way in which, on its own
account. it deals death to frogs IS
somewhat awful in the denouement
The victim, seeming to realize the
hOpelessness Of any attempt to es
cape, becomes literally paralyzed With
fright and, leaping with enfeebled
power. is soon seized by a hinder leg
and drawn into the jaws Of the enemy
The adder's method Of feeding is SINH
lar, but death is more speedy from the
wound inflicted by its tubular teeth
The grass snake altogether lacks these
teeth and swallows its prey alive 4

tionaI banks to issue emergency circu-
lation, upon which a tax of one half
of | per cent. d month is to be levied
in order to insure its retirement as
soon as the necessity for its use has
passed. This tax is equivalent to the
average legal rate of interest in the
states, and consequently it would be
of no profit to the banks to keep it in
circulation longer.
Aut1OrlIN Is vested Ill me tolup-
troller of the Currency to determine
whether business conditions demand
such additional circulation, the time OF
issue an dthe amount, and in this way
it is proposed to regulate and super
wise every operation. In order to eX-
pedite such issues whenever they are
needed it is provided that bank notes,
ready for the signature of the proper
officials of the issuing banks, shall be
deposited in the various subtreasur-
les. including Cincinnati, and thus the
time that is now consumed in its trans
initial from Washington would be
saved. In the case of San Francisco
there would be saving of six days,
while in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and
neighboring states the money could be
put into circulation two days in adj
vance.

Saw His Own Finish.

Some time ago the wife of Judge
Blank lost her cook, and. since she had
no other resource. she rolled up her
sleeves and for a week provided such
meals as the judge had not enjoyed
since those happy days when the
Blanks did not keep a cook. The
Judges delight was SO great that by
way Of appreciative acknowledgment
he presented Mrs. Blank with a beau
tful ermine cloak. Quite naturally the
incident was a good deal noised about
among the social acQuaintances of the
Blanks and a spirit of cnvious emula-
ton was developed in certain quarters,
It was in this mood that Mrs Jerome

The Name of the Junufrau.

Whence does the Jungfrau derive its
name? NJ. Hartman of Interlaken con-
tributes the results Of his researches
on this subject TO the "Feuilles d'His-
toire Bernoise.' There was, 1t appears.
in the fifteenth century a nunnery at
Interlaken. The nuns owned what is
now the Wengern Alp, and was then
denominated, out of compliment to its
proprietors. the "Jungfrauenberg." or
Mountain of the Young Women. A."
When name was wanted for the
snowpeak opposite. the Jungfrauenberg
naturally supplied it. 1t was called the
Jungfrauhorn-an appellation which.
in the course of the years, was abbre-
waited into Jungfrau.
