The Matson Navigation Company's
steamer Hilonian, which sails from
this city for San Francisco on Tues
day, will carry a full list of passengers
and all the freight which her hold can
contain. The strike at the Honolulu
plantation has held up the sugar from
that source to slight degree, but this
has not been an unalloyed trouble.
1t has meant that the Hilonian has
more room in which to carry pine
apples. On the present trip the Mat
son vessel will take $4,000 cases OF
pineapples to San Francisco as well
as 1926 tons of refined and 756 tons
Of raw sugar. Three thousand bunch
es of bananas and 1874 tons of rice will
complete her cargo.

That Famous Melon Feast.

The fame Of our big melon feast is
surely spreading throughout the eonti-
nent, as witness the following comment
from the Springfield (Mass) Daily
Republican Of Sept. 9:
Fasteners who were in Colorado last
week missed it If they did not attend the
Rocky Ford fair. where during melon
day 10000 Of these ::most luscious Of all
melons wers given away. 1t is not to be
wondered at that the town Of Rocky Ford
entertained the largest crowd fever as
sembled there. It makes ones mouth
water to read Of the big melon feast.
All hail the melon industry! 1t Is to be
hoped that the area Of melon culture at
Rocky Ford may increase. and that
many more OF these melons may find
their way to the hungry East"

Many of the land owners have re-
fused to sell their proper ). prefer

Twelve cars Of eants were shipped out
