We frequently hear it said that
farming is a business Ill the same
sense that going hardware concern
or thriving dry goods house is. To
be a successful farmer or rancher is
then to be a successful business man
and demands the application of equal
ly necessary business methods. One
Of the surest indications of the amount
of business sense a man is putting into
his matters, is the evidence he has at
hand of what has happened, and of
what is likely to happen, to his parti-
cular interests. TO wit; If he has
written to a commission house offer
ing to ship certain ranch produce,
with stated conditions of price,
quantity and time, as business man
he should preserve a copy Of that let
ter as carefully as he does the reply
of the commission man. The details
of the transaction may be perfectly

Against OIeomargarine.

One of the most unwiSe and danger
GUS measures proposed at the present
session of Congress, was a change in
the tax and restrictions imposed on
oleomargarine ostensibly to add to
the revenue but really to aid the pack
ers who have never ceased their efforts
for less restrictive measures. The
prompt efforts of President Schilling
of the National Dairy Union, who
made hurried trip to Washington
in behalf of the dairy interests, and the
cooperation of Representative Taw-
ney, of Minnesota, resulted in defer
ing action for the time being. But
there is no doubt that strong light
will be made by the oleo interests at
the next regular session.
To prepare for the expected conflict
a meeting of Minnesota dairy interests
was held at the state capitol the last
week at which time an auxiliary as
sociation was effected. to cooperate
with the national organization at Chi
cago. An executive committee of
three was elected, headed by Pure
Food Comm issioner Andrew French,
said committee to be backed by all the
allied dairy interests Of the state,
b OF h producing and manufacturing.
1t is expected that other dairy states
will take similar steps, and when Con-
gress next convenes determined
stand will be made in defense of the
vast and important dairy interests of
the whole country.

One of the features of the luncheon
for the Congressional party at the Ha-
ielwa Hotel on Saturday was the Ha-
Wailan quintet, whose oldtime songs
and good playing won the hearts of the

still cling to the good old Hawaiian
songs and have little to do with the
popular air craze of the day.

Art Theater.
Today being Labor Day, program
OF especial excellence has been arrang-
ed for patrons of the Art Theater. The
feature film will be "a Daughter of
Erin" a stirring drama of old Ireland.
The plot, which ise an absorbing one,
is woven around the love of an aristo-
cratic landlord for his tenant s beauti
full daughter The story is one of real
interest, and the attention of the spec
tators is held until the curtain falls
on the closing incidents of this drama
OF love, hatred and passion. The pic
lures show some of the scenery for
which Ireland is so justly famed, and
will recall fond reeollections in the
minds of all who have visited that
country. The remainder of the pro-
gram Is just as good as the feature film;
indeed, every film may justly be said
to be feature film today. The Lessos
have returned and viii present entire
Iy new feats-something better than
they have attempted in Honolulu, good
as that has been. Mrs. Lesso, who
earned reputation as being one of the
best shots with small ealiber rifle in
Australia, will give an exhibition at
both performances today. A target
has been erected on the stage, and
those who visit the Art Theater today
will be rewarded by seeing some marks
manship which they viii not very easily
forget.

No Conversation by wireless.

Rear Admiral Schroeder has issued
an order to his fleet captains that a
sharp surveillance of wireless operators
must be observed, and that every word
sept or received must be kept account
of, and all unconventional talk with
other operators must be stopped Wire
less is not to be used between ships
that are in signaling distance of each
other, but if the commander chief
calls by wireless for reports or for in
formation such reports will be made
by individual ships, ordinarily by sig
nal. When any ship is within reach
of shore wireless stations the apparatus
On board ship will not be used except
IN urgent cases and for a period of five
minutes before noon each day, when
the wireless noon signal from the naval
observatory at Washington is expected
to be received. In using the wireless
Admiral Schroeder urged that concise
ness IN framing messages be studied,
and adds that ''the air is getting too
busy to admit of messages being ex-
pressed in a conversational way.''

Military Plans for Hawaii.
s&&1&&&2.ssS2Sxs

In acting on the recommendation
of the bureau chiefs of the War De-
partment in the form of estimates on
which win be based the appropriations
for the maintenance of the military
establishment special consideration has
been given by Secretary Dickinson to
the projects Of coast defense on which
work has been begun in the Hawaiian
Islands and the Philippines, says the
n. 7. Tribune Washington core
spondent. Beyond this the army esti-
mates include no new construction, and
for the most part provide no means
OF continuing many important works
in the way of buildings at army posts.
The military authorities entertain the
hope that Congress will find it possible
TO insert some provision in the army
appropriation bill so that the means of
doing work on military projects will
not be entirely lacking for the next
fiscal year
Army officers say that the decision
of Secretary Dickinson limiting the
work on the coast defences, with
special favor in behalf Of the fortifca-
tions in Hawaii and Manila Bay. will
serve to postpone in a serious degree
the completion of numerous plans for
harbor defence.

HOT CHEESE SANDWICHES.

A good way to use up dry cheese,
either American, pineapple or Edam.
The last two CRATE down to the very
rind and are excellent for seasoning.
Slice bread that is a day old, thin
and cut into rounds. Spread the
rounds thickly with cheese, flavor
with salt, cayenne and just a touch
of Worcestershire sauce. Press two
layers together with the cheese be-
tween. Have butter melted in your
blazer, or If you like olive oil use
that instead of butter. Fry the
cheese sandwiches golden brown, first
on one side, then on the other, and
serve piping hot on hot plates. Cot
fee, ale or beer should accompany
these sandwiches.

THE HANDICAPPED COMPILE
MENT OF MAN.

MENT OF MAN.
In the breeding of animals-say
race horses for example is not
enough that the male be swift,
strong, Of great endurance, sure
footed and possessed of all the quail
tiles of the racer.
Such an animal, to reproduce his
like, is bred to a female of equally
fine qualities.
In plants we have even developed
the science Of development, of evo-
luton. So with animals - horses.
dogs, COWS, chickens, etc.
Who shall say, in the face of the
evidence, that man is above this iron
law of nature?
1t explains the "black-sheep" and
the genius, brothers.
The work and toll and self-devel-
opment which sturdy father and
excellent mother have had in their
lives crops out in the man who makes
millions think, or who makes mil
lions of dollars; or who endoWs the
human race with an invention worth
countless millions.
The self-indulgence of a successful
great man, wedding a woman of
means, idleness and freedom from
sordid care and consequently SYM
pathies, likewise accounts for the Off
spring Of the great man, who, in one
son, shows the elements of the great
ness Of his father and in another son
astounds the world by his utter tri-
f1ingness and sometimes criminality.
It is hard to trace these laws, as
they work out in human beings, for
we students of them live but one
generation; and, then, the students
have not that large liberty of ex-
Fermentation which they exercise in
breeding dogs, cattle, horses and
plants. But it is desperately GER
tain to cold logic and the coolest
hard sense that the laws exist and
rule. aA
This by way of preface to a word
or two on the treatment we are ac-
cording womankind even in this ad-
vanced day of light and civilization.
The other day l saw a little girl
of fourteen tossing a baseball with
all the grace, ease, accuracy, 1.-the

"Ah, there's your answer" | said
quickly to my friend. "a girl can
never throw like boy because Stu
p1dity, the worst form of inertia,
stands against her throwing at all;
and back of Stupidity and lending it
due reverence is that famous old Ty-
rant Custom, the bulwark of all the

IN human skim"
In Don Juan" Byron says: "Man

woman!"
How remorsely and cruelty true
this is!
Who has not heard some little las

time say, with all the earnestness of
her soul: Il wish l were a boy!"
Who has not heard a woman in de-

wishes he were woman!
From the cradle to the grave, I'M
der the most fool conventions, we
imprison the mothers of the human
race.
We laugh at the Chinese for i'm
prisoning the feet of their women to
keep them small and yet we imprison
the souls of our women.
If we stopped honestly to ask our
selves solid reasOn-one for ten
thousand of the indecorous things
forbidden by convention, by habit of
thought, We could not answer one!
The eliminating stupidity is reach
ed when we hold that that red-nosed
corrupt hummer there is fit to vote,
to have a voice in government; and
that sweet mother there is not!
Why?
He wears breeches and she wears
dresses!
Marvelously substantial reason!
Can Bedlam beat it?
There is one truth, however,
which, thank God, We may always
tie to.
Evolution corrects all stupidities.
Nothing lives in convention or in
life which has not reason for liv-
ing.
One after another, the dear stu
pidities of the world, through all
their vast circle, wither and die.
AS man advances, human liberty
opens like rose.
