Captain Platt Leaves.

Captain Platt of the Ordnance De-
partment, e. s. A., who came down
from the Coast short time ago to test
the big guns of the Diamond Head NOR
tar battery, left for San Francisco on
the Korea yesterday afternoon. Before
leaving he stated that, except for few
minor and -unimportant particulars, he
found everything all right with. the
guns. He expects to return to Hawaii
next December to test the Pearl Har-
Dor guns, which it is expected will be
mounted and ready for use by that
time.
Captain Plat expressed himself as
delighted with Honolulu and was sorry
that he could not stay longer and see
more of the country. He hopes on the
occasion of his next visit to be able to
make longer stay. 1t is possible that
when he comes this way again, he may
bring Mrs. Plat with him. ssaa5
The only fault the captain had TO
find with Hawaii was the difficulty In
getting away from here. This difficult
ty, he said, is two-fold. One finds it
hard to tear himself away from the
climate and the beautiful surroundings,
and he also finds it very difficult to
get steamer accommodations In fact,
almost up to the hour of sailing Cap
tain Platt was not sure whether or not
he could get accommodations on the
Korea. His efforts to get passage on
the Mariana resulted in failure, she be
ing full to the guards.

If Colonel Schuyler Of the Fifth
Cavalry, commandant of the Leilehua
post, is able to carry out the plans
upon which he is now working, the
great plain where it is proposed to To-
cate the big garrison will become one
of the most beautiful places in Hawaii,
which is TO say, one of the most de
lightful army posts in the United
States.
Colonel Schuyler is a firm believer in
the preservation of forests and the
planting of trees. A tree to him is not
only valuable asset but a thing of
beauty, and what Colonel SCHUYLER
wants about Leilehua, and what he in
tends to have if it be possible, is plenty
of yerdure. He wants to plant the
great plain of Leilehua with trees, trees
of the right sort, that will flourish in
this climate and add to the general at
tractiveness of the big army post
which viii undoubtedly be located
there in time
The Colonel has been comforting with
Forester Ralph Hosmer about his pet
idea, and in Mr. Hosmer he has found
an enthusiast as regards the forestra-
ton of the country. Their idea, so far
as they have worked it out, is to take
measures for preserving the natural
growth on the slopes of the hills that
hem IN the plain of Leilehua, and more
than that, to plant trees ON the plain
itself.
What these Two lovers of trees will
be able to do still remains to be seen,
but if they succeed in carrying out their
present ideas, Hawaii will owe them a
debt of gratitude for increasing the
natural beauty of one of the naturally
beautiful SnatS of the Territory

A NEW METHOD OF PURIFYING
THE AIR IN ROOMS.

1t requires no argument to estab-
fish the desirability of freeing rooms
Of dust and disease germs. Many diff.
ferent methods have been employed
but none SO simple and effective as
a recently invented device. which is
simply an electric fanS revolving in
vertical cylinder. The fan pro-
duces an air current of about two
cubic feet per second. Water is al
lowed to drip upon the blades of the
fan from a three quart vessel at the
rate Of one quart per hour, and the
rapid motion of the fan throws the
drops Of water to the walls of the
cylinder in fine spray. The i'm
purities in the air are caught by the
spray, which trickles down the cylin
der to a basin underneath the ap
paratus.

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN.

For the week ending September &c
1909.
The past week was favorable fol
farm work and ripening the belatet
corn. The rainfall was fairly welp;d
tributed, but was generally light and
considerably below the normal over
the larger part of the state, but
there has been sufficient moisture tic
make good pasture and for plowine
and seeding fall grains. More rain
will, however, soon be needed to
keep the soil moist enough for pillow
ing. The temperature was consider
ably below the normal, and light
frost occurred in low places in all
parts of the state on the mornings
of the 23d and oath, but no damage
was done. Most of the days were
clear and warm; the average maxi
mum temperature for the week being
about 70 degrees. Over So per cent
of the corn is beyond danger of in
jury by frost and over 80 per cent
of it will be safe with another week
of warm weather. Reports indicate
that the general rains during the
fore part of September and the sub
sequent warm weather. have been
beneficial to the late corn. which has
improved one or two points during
the month. In many parts of the
state more corn is being cut than
usual. Excellent progress is being
made in blowing. fall seeding and
harvesting the minor crops. More
blowing and seeding have been done
than was thought possible during the

HANDING OUT LEMONS,

From the Des Moines Daily News.)
When they were building that new
tariff bill, among other thoughtful
provisions for our comfort was an in
crease in the duty on lemons.
There were two ideas in the in
crease. First, by putting higher
tariff on lemons Aldrich Chat
staunch friend of us alb could Sc.
cure certain western senatorial
totes for the high wool schedules
and other subsidies for New England
md, secondly, nobody would be af-
'ected except all of us who would
have to pay about so cents per 100
pounds more for our lemons.
But still we could get lemon now
md then. Mr.. Aldrich didn't put
them entirely out of our reach.
Well, the lemon tariff was raised,

AMERICA THE MOST PRoeREs.
slvE COUNTRY.

At the present time the popula-
ton of the United States is, in
round numbers, ss,Oo0,OOO, and dur.
ing the year covered by the last
statistical Abstract issued by the
Department of Commerce and Labor,
no less than six thousand, four hun
dred' and sixty-six millions of letters
and postal cards were sent through
the mails of this country. Without
some comparison this number would
be meaningless to the majority of
people. The quantity is two-thirds
as large as the combined postal bu-
siness Of Great Britain, Germany
France and Austria-Hungary, and
twice as great as any one of them;
and, in addition to letters and post
al cards, the people of this country
sent more than hundred million
telegraph messages during the
twelve months in question.
Our total continental area, includ
ing Alaska, is equal to that Of all of
Europe, which shows that we can
double and treble our population and
still have room for more. The wealth
of the country in 1850 was only 81

bers; in 1890 it was 65,00O,00O, 900

more than fifteen times as large a.

port shows that the farm product!

amount to as much now as the en-

century ago, and the question nat
urally suggests itself to what is this
wonderful progress largely due? Gu,

TAFTs TOUR A SOCIAL SUCCESS
BUT A POLITICAL FAILURE.

The President commenced his tour
by lauding Aldrich and justifying
Secretary Ballinger for his conniv
ance with the coal land grabbers.
When he did this every undesirable
interest in the country had reason
( to rejoice. At that time many thought
that Pinchot, the defender of the
public coal lands, would be forced
out of office, and that another term
of land grabbing and spoliation OF
public property would have to be
endured. The Presidents public de
tense OF his cabinet officer was in
effect censure of Pinchot But the
President learned as he journeyed
westward that he had made very
unpopular start. His trip across this
great transit Mississippi region was
described as polar dash by the
i 7 3. ~ p
correspondents OF the Dig metropol
1tan newspapers, and as heN1ourney'
ed up the foothills OF the mountains
It was made very clear to him that
