The next step calls for concerted
action of a few farmers in each neigh
borhood. They should erect cooper
atively-owned elevators, capable Of
storing, say 20 per cent. Of their sur-
plus crops. Here grain inspection,
weighing, and final cleaning OF mix
ing could be done and money could be
secured as needed by the farmers.
The next is concerted action by the
board Of directors Of these elevators.
Each local elevator should have from
one to ten shares Of stock In some
terminal elevator, according to the
capacity OF the locals. These termi-
mails should be located to cater to the
demands of the domestic and foreign
trade, accessible to the great milling
centers and to the seaboard. 1t
should be comparatively easy for the
farmer to finance such a company,
the directors of which to be elected
by the farmers, to store for the local
elevators frsm two to ten million
bushels of surplus crop. This is
needed.
At the present time farmers buy
thousands Of harvesters at $125 and
$50 each and use them only ten or
twelve days = year; some storage
capacity is needed Throughout the
year; al is needed after threshing for
the first few months. The cream
separator is used only one hour out of

Around the
Police Station

The ownership of lot of Hawaiian
quarters which were stolen from j. o.
Lutted some time ago by Peter Naval,
| the young burglar now held at the po-
lice station awaiting trial, was the
cause of the issuance of a warrant for
H. Culman, the jeweler, yesterday af-
ternoon. There is prospect of a trial
which will be interesting on both sides.
From the police it appears that the
Hawaiian coins were traced to the pos
session of Mr.. Culman. The latter ad-
mitted that he had bought the coins,
as he does similar coins from many
people in town. They are used in his
business for watch fobs, belt buckles,
etc.
Chief of Detectives Leal visited Mr..
Culman, and, according to Leal, Mr.:
Culman admitted that he had bought
the coins for $50. He said he would
turn them over to the rightful owner.
Mr.. Lutted called, and, according to
police information, Mr.. Culman asked
" cSEtfS thC ludtICI 1O1 PO.oV3
was refused, and an offer of 81 was
made. Mr.. Lutted said he would lay
the matter before Leal, whereupon, it
is stated, Mr.. Culman refused to ne
gotiate further. The warrant was
thereupon issued The case will APP
pear on today's police court calendar.
Mr.. Culman, who was seen last even
ing, says the above statement is cor
rect except that he did not make an
offer of $3.50. He did offer to reim-
burse Mr. Lutted for the loss, at par
value. Naval had stated that the
coins had been taken in by the Art
Theater and that the management
wanted to get their value. When Mr..
Lutted called, many of the coins had
been transformed into jewelry.
Got Gamblers, Not Thieves.
Detective Apana went out with Of
icer Mich to search for, chicken
thieves. He stumbled upon a Chinese
gambling game running in full blast.
It was big chance to make the raid,
but he broke into the place, and with
Mich ON guard at the door managed
to bag twelve of those present, to-
gether with evidence in the shape of
money, dominoes, etc. Many of those
arrested are old-time gamblers.
Harris Is Committed.
Harris, the negro who escaped from
Jail recently while awaiting trial and
was reeaptured by Chief Leal in the
harbor of Kahului, was brought before
Judge Andrade yesterday and commit
ted to the circuit Court. Owing to Har-
ris' bad reputation, there is some talk
of giving him the opportunity of leaving
the Territory under condition that he
does not return to the Islands.
