New Orleans Ready for Taft.

New Orleans, February 10.-All ar rangements were completed tonight for the reception here of President-elect William Howard Taft, who, with Mrs Taft and other members of the party that made the trip to Panama, are expected to land In this city tomorrow after noon.
 Much doubt exists as to the exact time Judge Taft will reach New Orleans. Ac- cording to the plans made by the commit tee the President-elect was to reach the city at o'clock in the afternoon, but on account of various additions to the programme it was found necessary to change this hour to 2 o'clock Tonight wireless messages received from the North Carolina and Montana are to the effect that the transfer to the scout crui- ser Birmingham, which is to bring the party to New Orleans, will not be made until o'clock tomorrow morning. It is asserted that the Birmingham will require fully seven hours to ascend the river and on this account the members of the committee fear that again the time of the land reception must be postponed until o'clock. The President-elect sent a wireless message during the afternoon however, saying that the Birmingham would meet the New Orleans river re- ception committee eight miles below the city at l o'clock tomorrow afternoon This would give him ample time to reach the foot of Canal street one hour later
 Tomorrow afternoon a civic and. mili- tary parade will be rendered the Presi- dent-elect and Mrs Taft and tomorrow night they will occupy the box of honor at the old French opera house where the Elves of Oberon will give their annual ball Friday morning a reception will be rendered the President-elect under the auspices of the Colored Young Mems Christian association and Friday night a banquet will be given Judge Taft by 1000 citizens of New Orleans.

SMALL FARMING
SHOWS RESULTS
Secretary Wilson Comments on
Diversified Agriculture
in Hawaii.

The advance sheets of the report OF
the secretary of agriculture for 1903,
which have just been received, contain
an interesting commentary on small
farming in Hawaii. Secretary Wilson
says:
.'The efforts of the Hawaii station
to diversity the agriculture OF those
islands are beginning to show results.
The discovery of some of the difficulties
attending the shipment of fresh fruit
and means for their control has been
followed by greatly increased ship
ments, particularly Of plneapples'
Methods for the propagation of citrus,
mango. and avocado trees have been
worked out, and with the Investigations
now in progress in orchard management
Il is believed that most of the obstacles
that have prevented the increased pro-
duction of tropical fruits viii be re-
moved.
.EThe rice Investigations, which have
been in progress for several years, have
developed better and more prolific vari-
cites and made possible the devlslng OF
methods for the fertilization of the crop
which more than double the yield of
ordinary rice lands. Great interest is
being taken in the experiments with
cotton. especially with the Sea Island
varieties, of which. the station has sew
eral well-maTked strains. Heavy yields
of all the varieties have been obtained,
and of some of the Sea Island strains
the yield exceeds anything hitherto re-
ported, while the quality of the fiber
is most excellent, the fiber being in
some eases very silky and more than
two inches in length. 1t has been found
possible to grow cotton either as an
annual or as perennial, and when it
is grown as a perennial by pruning and
cultivation the time of maturity of the
bolls can be controlled. AS a result of
the stations experiments about 100
acres were planted to cotton this year
and probably 1000 acres will be plant
ed in 1910, some of the areas formerly
in cane being given up to this new
crop.
"The station has devote. considerable
time to a study of the causes of the
following of pineapple plants in the
field, and it has been found chiefly due
to the presence of large amounts of
manganese in the soils Experiments
aresnow in progress to overcome the un
desirable soil conditions The rubber
investigations have been highly salts
factory, and as a result of experimental
tappings of 500 trees the most econom
ical methods of tapping and coagulatinG
| the latex have been worked out. The
experiments have shown the possibility
of the profitable production of rubbe
from Ceara trees in Hawaii. There ar
now 1900 acres or more rubber tree
planted in Hawaii, and the profitable
ness of the new industry seems to b,
assured. -
