in our property, would go a long way,
towards helping out some persons who,
some years ago, bought home (partIy
on time) and who Is now unable to
get what the improvements cost. And
would they not get value receiyed2
Would it not be a good investment
The mere investment of million or
so in real estate here would put an
impetus in the business that would
bring up values to point where the
many would not want to sell-would
put up values to that point where it
would be possible for a person to get
a loan of a small amount on it to save
IL. We constantly hear what a big
place Honolulu is destined to be. If
this be true, why do not our moneyed
men invest here's Why not take ad-
vantage of these auction room bargains
almost daily offered?
Improvement in real estate values
would improve conditions all round-in
everything. With all our big returns
for sugar, only a few of our people
feel prosperous. The many are in poor
circumstances. And with some, times
are distressingly hard. 1t is up to the
men who control this large sum to put
life into things here by spending it
here This is their home as well as
the other fellows, and it is to their
shame that they have the power to
bring about an improvement in condl-
tons and will not do it. Money should
be plentiful here and interest low; yet
let a man try to borrow some on real
estate and he is up against 1t hard.
Things should not be so. Investments
in real estate in Honolulu today at
present prices, would mean doubling
of the investment within few years.
Let our men of wealth so invest their
riches as to help their fellowman, their
and he helps himself. Do
not continue to invest it in the enlarge
ment only of plantations. Be generous
to those around you. Help them with
a small part of your wealth.

Green Forage for Hogs.

An especially timely bulletin
has Just been issued from the
Missouri Experiment Station by
Dean H. J. Waters giving the re-
suits of some experiments to
determine the value of different
forage crops for hogs.
Thirtysix pigs weighing about
so lbs. each were fed in lots on
different forage crops in connec-
ton with corn until they were
ready for market, accurate ac-
count being kept of the cost of
gains made.
In cheapness of gains the feeds
used ranked as follows: Corn
and skim milk, cheapest; corn
and alfalfa, second; corn and red
clover, third; corn and bluegrass
fourth; corn and rape, fifth;
corn and ship stuff, sixth.
A saving of about 75c a hun
dred in the cost of gain was eff
fected by using green clover in
stead of fresh bluegrass, A
saving~of S1.0O a hundred was
effected by using alfalfa instead
of bluegrass.
When it is realized that alfalfa
comes on early and when, prop
erly clipped stays green all sum-
mer and until the very hard
freezes of early winter, it's i'm
portance as hog pasture is ap-
parent. Clover yields more
forage per acre than bluegrass,
and as shown by these expert
ments has a much higher, feed
ing value. It is of the utmost
Importance therefore to provide
this sort of pasture for hogs
rather than to require them to
run on bluegrass pasture, or
even worse than bluegrass, a
timothy pasture, or even far
worse than this, to confine them
in dry lot in the summertime.
This bulletin recommends a
succession of crops for profit
able hog pasture. The bulletin
is for free distribution, and may
be had by addressing the Ex-
pe;iment Station at Colum bia.

FAINTS BEFORE sTATUARY.
Mother Sees Group Showing Heroic
Death of Her Son at Battle
OF EI Caney, 80

Crowds gather hourly around the
piece of statuary in front of the art
gallery at the Buffalo exposition,
which is entitled "El Caney." The
other day there was a pathetic little
scene. Mrs. Helen NJ. Packard, of
Springfield, Mass, read the inscrip-
tion and tainted. She was carried into
the Art building and revived.
1t seems that the soldiers in this
scene were her sons, who volunteered
with the Second Massachusetts, infan-
try. The statuary was modelled on
magazine description by Richard
Harding Davis, relating how he came
on a soldier of the Second Massachu-
setts standing beside dying com.
rade who proved to be his brother.
Arthur Packard was the dead soldier,
Walter Packard the survivor.
Walter Packard suffered injury to
his health in the campaign and is
compelled to live in Oregon. His
mother is on her way to Oregon to
take up her home with him, and,
stopping at Buffalo, came upon the
statuary.
