WATER RIGHTS
AND MAUI LAND
Occupying Governor Frear's
Time and Attention
Yesterday.

Governor Frear yesterday took up
the matter of the rental to be paid for
the Spreckels ditch license with FL. P.
Baldwin and J. p. Cooke. The original
license authorizing the Spreckels ditch,
10y which water from government land
on the windward side of the Koolau
mountains is gathered and carried TO
the lands of the Hawaiian Commercial
& Sugar Company, was for the term of
thirty years, with the right of renewal
for another thirty years, the rental for
the second term OF thirty years to be
fixed by appraisement for ten-year
periods. The original thirty-year per-
iod has about expired, and in accord
anee with its terms the licensees ask
for another thirty year term and for
the fixing of the rental for the first ten
years of the thirty-year period. That
will be done by appraisement, and ap-
praisers will be appointed
H. P Baldwin, as was announced at
the time of the Governors tour of
Maui would be done, has surrendered
a portion of land included in the lease
of the Keanae lands. This lease was
made in 1902, and expires in 1925, and
includes the whole of Keanae, about
$4,000 or $4,000 acres. The part sur
rendered is 336 acres of the makai
lands of this tract which are suitable
for homesteading, and it is expected
to open them up for homesteads very
soon.
Further consideration was given to
the offer of exchange of lands adjoin-
ing the Haiku Fruit and Packing. Com
pany's pineapple plantation for the
government land of Omaopio. The lat
ter is triangular piece of the Kula
lands of Central Maui, which. extends
down into the lands of the Hawaiian
Commercial G. Sugar Company's plan
tation. a part of the lands are suitable
for cane with irrigation. The Hawaiian
Commercial & Sugar Company has two
bitches, which carry water across this
land under licenses from the govern
ment, one of which expires in few
years and the other in 1923. BY means
of these bitches it can 1rrigate the cane
lands of this tract, or part of them.
The lands which are offered in ex-
change are believed to be pineapple
land of good quality, which can be
opened for homesteads at once. APP
praisers will be appointed to appraise
both tracts and the exchange. if made,
will be made on the basis of this ap-
praisement.

CORN IN DIFFERENT CLIMATES.

Corn grown in the different parts of the United States varies widely in it's appearance and composition, and in the method of cultivation Az a rulc, the hardness of the protecting wall of the grain increases with the distance north, The grain seems to thrive best between the two extremes of climate and hence the superiority of the corn and the greater production in the corn belt
 The methods of milling corn also vary greatly in the southern states from those of the northern states. There are two grades of southern made meal One Is ground coarsely between stones and sfted through q coarse sieve. This contains all of the grain except the coarse bran. The other grade Is finely ground and bolted through fine sieve by which process 1t loses nearly all of the bran ana therefore contains less fiber and min eral matter, Because the germ is left In southern-m meal the corn oil of the germ soon becomes rancid and hence the meal spells very easily. The flavor and action of the southern meal in cooking is also widely different from that of northern meal Northern meal has the germ first removed and artificial heat is used in the course of milling, all of which causes the meal to keep better. If Is of an even granu- lar consistency not possessed by the southern product,
 There is also great difference in the method of Cutivating corn in the south, There the rows are very wide sometimes as much as seven feet apart and the stand is reduced to one stalk per hill, lt is revelation to the 5outhorner tO See so many stalks of corn growing in one hill in the north m cornhelds, The thinner and poorer the soil in the south, the wider the rows are apart

shipwreeks and Courts Martial.

Shipwreeks and Courts Martial.
The custom of holding courts martial
in the British navy after every case Of
shipwreck has a curious origin. In
1741 the Wager, one Of Commodore
Anson's vessels, was wrecked OF the
coast Of Chile, most Of the crew being
saved. The men and some Of the jun
ior officers held that they were no
longer amenable to discipline because
their pay ceased with the wreck, but
the captain, whose name wa$ Davy
Cheap, differed, treated them as mutt
neers and shot one Of his midshipmen.
He was then deposed, and most of the
crew made Off in three Of the boats.
Later when it was proposed to proceed
against the so called mutineers the law
officers Of the crown decided that the
men had been correct In their view
This discovery led to the framing Of
section 81 Of the articles of war. which
provides that in the case of shipwreck,
destruction or capture by the enemy a
ship is held to remain In commission

MEDALS FOR BRAVERY.
Decorations That May BE Bestowed
by Uncle Sam,

Uncle Sam is not averse to bestow-
ing decorations, says the Philadelphia
Press. While the constitution prohib-
Its government officers from accepting
orders from foreign governments, the
president has the power to award in
sigma, which mean considerably more
than most Of the stars, garters, etc., Of
the old world. These are medals for
bravery.
Besides the medals for conspicuous
bravery in battle and the decorations
for life saving on the water, the chief
executive can honor men and women
who display heroism ON the railroad
lines Of the country.
Award Of the decorations is made by
the chief executive on recommendation
from the interstate commerce commis-
sion. Applications must be accompa-
MED by afidavits from eyewitnesses
of the heroic deeds. and they must be
approved by committee Of five Of
the commissioners.
A bronze medal and a button Of gold
and enamel are the insignia given.
The medal Is about as big as q silver
dollar. On one side, the diverse, there
is a figure Of a man upon a railway
track. with one knee upon rock which
blocks an approaching train. He is
warning the trainmen by means Of q
brand.
On the reverse side is laurel
wreath, symbolical of heroism. The in
scription, 1.-THE United States Medal
For Life Saving on Railroads." appears
near the medals rim. and within the
wreath Is the following: "For Bravery.
