We waste enormous sums feeding our soils
on badly balanced fertilizer raltions-like
child using pint Of nfoLasses with one help
ing of batter-cakes or giving a horse four
bundles Of fodder with half feed of corn
and we pay millions of dollars for nitrogen
that we ought to get free from the air by
growing peas and clover, and we lose other
enoyaous sums by buying low-grade goods be-
cause they are cheaper in price per ton-not
observing that they are dearer in proportion
to the plant food they contain.
We do not urge our farmers to buy less fer
tilizer; we do urge them to buy more judi
ciously.
And to the millions that are lost through
reckless buying and reckless handling of COM
mercial fertilizers, we must add as many mil
lions more that are lost every year by our
failure to live up to our opportunities for
making and saving barnyard manures and for
growing legumes; our lands perishing for lack
of humus and vegetable matter while we dose
them with pitiable dribbles of low-grade fer
tilizers
The fertilizer manufacturers of America
ought to join the farm papers in a crusade for
more legumes and more barnyard manure.
Without these to give life and body to our
soils, commercial fertilizers are a mere ex-
pedient and makeshift, merely postponing the
certain day Of quilted waste and exhaustion.
What the southern farmer needs more than
anything else is to stop land-robbing and start
land-building. The soil is the farmers cap
ital STOCK and the bank which is feeding on
it's capital stock instead Of increasing it is no
surer doomed to failure and bankruptcy than
is the farmer who is letting his soil get poor
er instead Of richer. The soils in Europe that
have made good crops a thousand years, and
are still making them are living rebuke for
all of us here in the south-shame upon US
who are wasting in one generation the land
heritage that God intended we should keep
fertile for our children children through
thousands and thousands Of years. And we
are wasting it, too, in spite of the fact that
of all the great crops hat men grow, cotton
when the seed or their equivalent are re-
turned to the soil-makes the hghtest draft
on the fertility of the land.-Progressive
Farmer.

debtedness could have been foated in treas
ury notes. [ do not mean to say that we could
issue paper money in an unlimited quantity.
I do not mean to convey the idea that I am
in favor Of deprecated currency. This is
a great, strong and powerful Government and
could easily carry one billion of dollars in
treasury notes, non-interest bearing and made
legal tender in the payment Of debts. I do
not favor the Aldrich bill and cannot vote for
it. [ do not believe that national banks
should be allowed the exclusive privilege Of
purchasing national bonds, state, city, county
and municipal bonds and a certain class of
railroad bonds and deposit them with the
Government for the purpose Of receiving mon
ey issued by the Government Our Govern
ment was founded upon the theory that no
special privilege should be granted to any cit
izen Or any corporation but that equal and
fais treatment should be accorded to every
one. I am firmly fixed in these views because
[ believe them to be right and in the interest
of justice and fair play. When the Govern

the Government is presumed to act keep

but when this privilege is transferred to few
individuals or corporations, favoritism neces-
sarily follows and an injustice is done the
American people.
This matter will come up for discussion
probably the latter part Of this month I
see little hope for the views entertained
by the Democrats to prevail. The present
system Of allowing banks to issue money,
believe, will receive most of the Republican
votes but we can make an issue and press it
vigorously and that issue must be decided by
the American people,

WHAT AMBASSADOR AOKI
SAID TO BROWN REPORTERS

nese people could form a Japanese
community in the United States, but
in the Far East there are much more
suitable opportunities, where the Jap
anese influences may be extended with
great results. For 250 years, under
the feudal system, Japan was closed
to the world and the other nations
have so advanced that it is impossible
for us to gain a foothold in the West.
It is to the East that we must turn
our energies and we must progress in
the continent of Asia
''In regard to the naturalization of
Japanese in the United States, 1 have
said that 1 am against Japanese la
borers going to that country and
therefore see no need of naturalization,
except for such as expect to stay and
make America their permanent home.
However, the different industries
which are springing up here in Ha-
wall, such as sauce manufacturing,
rice refining. and the pineapple indus
try, are very good things and ought
to be encouraged
While the interview was going on
the cablegram from Japan, announc-
ing the resignation of Prime Minister
Saionji, was read and the Ambassador
was greatly interested. He wished to
obtain further particulars, but, owing
to the brief wording of the message,
could not obtain them and appeared
to be rather disappointed.

kILOHANA ART LEAGUE

Permission has been granted by the
superintendent of Public Works to the
KiIohana Art League, in a letter TO
Mrs. W. NJ Graham, chairman of the
City Improvement Circle thereof, to
use the market place for the following

Observance of President Mckinley s

Mardi Gras celebration, March 8.
Musical festival, some time in May.
Included in the permission is author

diately after the May festival. Default
in this will subject the material to sale
at auction by the department
Mrs. Graham last night expressed
satisfaction at the permission granted.
She $ confident that the use of the
market for the popular events men
toned will increase public opinion in
favor of having the place made a per-
manent rendezvous for great enter
tainments upon the plans devised by
the Kilohana Art League. Petitions to
have the scheme carried out are in
which. it is said, are be-
ing signed by hundreds.

FRANK SCOTT DIES
SUDDENLY At kILAUEA

Frank Scott, manager of Kilauea
plantation. Kauai, died suddenly of
apoplexy at $50 o'clock Monday after
noon. The news came by wireless to
w. G. Irwin & Co. Mr.. Scott leaves
three young children, boy and two
girls. His wife, who was a Miss Ber-
telmann of Pilaa before marriage, pre-
deceased him by few years. Robert
Scott, a brother, is carpenter on XII
lauea plantation.
The late Mr. Scott was a native Of
Selkirk, Scotland. Before taking the
management of Kilauea about a year
ago he had been head luna for year,
and prior to that engineer on the same
plantation for twelve or thirteen
years. Formerly he had been engineer
at Heeia plantation, Oahu, having pre-
viousIy held the same position at ko-
hala. In earlier life he was a steam
ship engineer. Mr.. Scott had many
friends in Honolulu as well as through
out the islands, and being Of genial
disposition was well liked by all. His
sudden death is very much regretted
by his Honolulu acquaintance.
Jack Myers, head luna Of Kilauea,
arrived from Japan in the Mongolia on
Sunday. Before he left for Kauai in
the Ke Au Hou on Monday evening,
he was informed that a wireless mes
sage had been received stating that
Manager Scott had sustained stroke
and asking that trained nurse be
sent over to him.

While Ambassador Aoki did not see
fit to give any interviews TO the Amer
lean press representatives of this city,
he talked quite freely with the repre-
sentatives of the Japanese press, who
had gathered at the consulate. The
meeting lasted for nearly three-quar-
ters of an hour and the following We're
present: Messrs. Motoshige, Mura
kami, Kawahara and Akai, of the
Japanese Merchants Association, and
Messrs. Sheba, Onoda and Eimura, of
the local Japanese press. Ambassa-
dor Aoki said in part:
'I do not favor the idea of Japanese
manual laborers leaving their own
country to go abroad. Even in Ha-
waii I do not like to see so many Jap
anese laborers. Besides this the Uni
ted States is not the country to which
Japanese should go, but with the ex-
tension of the Japanese influences in
Korea and in China, they should turn
in that direction.
''I believe that if the various in
dustries in Japan were properly pro-
mbted and fostered there would be
work enough for all the people with
out leaving their own country. Japan
is small in area to be sure, but so is
England. What we must have is a
manufacturing country. which wit, be
able to support all it's own people.

positions they are occupying.
