At the family mansion ON Nuuanu

A LECTURE ON PURE MILK.

The senior and freshmen classes of
the Normal School visited the College
of Hawaii yesterday morning and
heard very interesting lecture on the
subject Of Pure MIX which, by
special request, was very kindly given
by Prof. 3. E. Porter The pupils, ac-
eonapanied by their teachers, had their
notebooks and pencils, with which they
took notes Ct the points in the lecture.
In the lecture Prof Porter discussed
how important it is to control the sur
sroundings where milk is produced. Milk
is one Of the best mediums in which
bacteria win grow, and many preeau-
tions were given tie prevent the pres
ence Of germ life about the stables and
places where milk is handled. Special
emphasis was given to the care of the
stables and the cows Clean and whole
some products come from clean stables
and healthy cows. Instruction was
given in the matter of supplying the
herd with healthy cows and how it was
best to dispose Of diseased animals
Much interest was manifested in the
control and eradication of tuberculosis
To produce sanitary milk it is evi
dent that an intelligent application OF
the principles and method of best dairy
practices discussed by Prof. Porter
should be followed.

 Raising Ideas.

Tax Commissioner Corbin's Revenue
 Raising Ideas.
 MT. Corbin sees that if state expenEes are to be on the present liberal scale, there must be some new source of state revenue, discovered says the CourAnt. He offers three methods-an increase of the inheritance tax rate, a tax on what Is called the corporate excess, and a direct state tax. AS regards the first, this state charges less dt seems) than most of the other state charge, and 1t i~ to be remembered that this tax is the easiest of all to bear and as easy aH any to collect. It is in effect & tax on gifts. the individual who has labored to aocu- mulate the property has gone; the tax comes out of what he has left behind him and has given" to others. As to the corporate excess tax, it amounts in effect to taxing manufacturing stocks up to their full value as is now done with bank, insurance aud trust company stocks. By as much as these companies pay into the treasuries of the towns where they are located by just so much their tax to the state will be reduced. The chief objection to it in Connscti- cut will be that it is direct reversal of our established policy, which has dealt kindly and gently with manufactorieH as the activities and life of their oom- munities. It Is a method, however, which has proved itself across the line, in Massachusetts. where manufacturing. seems to flourish notwithstanding the corporate excess tax. The CourAnt bsr lieves that whatever may be done with the other proposed sources of Inoome,~ there should be a direct tax, if for no. other reason than in order to make the payers of that tax sit up and take notice of the state expenditures. Therv' gre manifest extravagances to-day which would never be tolerated if every oitizen, felt his own money was floating away in this manner. There is lot to think about in MT.

A kind that when he hitches them up to take ride that ten miles an hour is easy for them. When the colt IS eight or nine months old, his schooling begins. They do not break colts any more, they teach them. With careful and kind treatment, the colt soon learns what is wanted. There need be no ex- tra expense for breaking, if the colt possesses extraordinary speed you will find it out without paying someone to tell you Of it. Then, perhaps, it will pay to have it trained for month or so by an expert. At the present time we have several families of horses that come to thelr speed very young, before they are two years old. With a little work, they will snow you what they are best fitted for.
 Farmers, raise your own horses and you will find that it pays as we'll as any other part of the business with always an even chance of drawing capital prize.

PlNCHOT'S IDEA
Suggests Free Wood Pulp and Reduc-
 ton of Duty on Paper.

Suggests Free Wood Pulp and Reduc-
 tion of Duty on Paper.
 Clifford Pinchot, one of our "Connecti- cut boys," who is chief of the Bureau of Forestry and regarded as foremost ex- pert in all that concerns the care of trees, does not favor free lumber as a means of protecting our own forests He has written letter to the Ways and Means Committee embodying his views, in which. he says the admission of lumber free of duty would not promote the conservation of forests or result Ill materially reducing prices of lumber to American consumers.
 What he suggests is free wood pulp and the reduction in the duty on news paper. The whole subject is under earnest consideration by the tariff re- visers, and it is evident that careful thought will be given to every interest. What is reasonably certain in any event is that steps will be taken looking to Tightening the burden on paper con- sumers, which, directly or indirectly, means the public generally. For news papers and other periodicals are indis- pensible to the American people, and whatever enhances their cost is a matter of concern to every one.-Hartford Post.
