We can help the soil to become
warm in the spring, then, by doing all
that we can to check evaporation. Did
you ever notice how quickly the sur
face Of a wet field became dry after it
had been narrowed? This is because
stirring and loosening the soil stops
the water from coming up from be-
low The water in the loose upper
layer soon evapOrates. and after that
the heat is used in warming the soil
instead of turning the water into va,
por. OF course If we are not going to
allow the surplus water to be given of
by evaporation we must provide till
drains and bitches to carry it away
We shall study more about drainage
and the movement Of water through
the soil in another article.

A suit for malicious injury is now

Sproat on complaint of the Honokaa
Sugar Company. The company engaged
A. j. Williamson to make survey of
a reservoir on its property to ascertain
how many gallons of water the reser-

put his transit in position and, it is
alleged, Sproat told him that if he did
not stop, he (Sproat) would smash the
instrument. Thinking that Sproat was
only joking, Williamson paid no atten-
ton to him whereupon the instrument
was promptly smashed with Ratchet.

EDITORIAL COMMENT
ON THE RETIREMENT
OF WALTER c. SMITH
From the Hawaii Herald.

The retirement of Mr.. Walter eli
Smith from the position of editor OFF
the Advertiser will be a distinct loss
to the reading-loving people of the Teri
ritory. His editorials were always
looked for with interest and read with
appreciation even by those who dis
agreed with his opinions, while The By-
stander columns have been a weekly
treat when written by him. There is
not a newspaperman in the Territory
who possesses Mr.. Smith IS force or fa-
cility as a writer, and there are few
writers in the States who can touch
him for condensed satire. The Herald
regrets exceedingly that the cause Of
Mr.. Smiths retirement is i'll health
and hopes that his rest from work will
restore him to that condition of sound
body which he knows SO well how to
enjoy and appreciate.

EXPLORER OF
ARCTIC SEA

CFrom Mondays Advertiser,

From Mondays Advertiser.)
81 don't see why there is SO much
of craze to find the North Pole, for
we have known for long time that
that region is an open polar sea.'
b. 8. Donahue of San Francisco, who
arrived on the Alameda and will be a
guest at the Moana Hotel for about
month, gave the above opinion yes
terday while discussing polar expedi-
tions for in 1873 he was member of
Lieutenant Schwatka IS expedition
which went in search of the remains
of Sir John Franklin and party.
When asked about the expedition Mr..
Donahue said that it was so long ago
that he has almost forgotten the details.
The party sailed north through the
Hudson Bay in the hundred-ton schoon-
er Eothan. With Lieutenant Schwatka
were some scientists and an illustrator
for New York publication. The only
way in which Mr.. Donahue could be-
come member of the expedition was
to sign on as the amanuensis of the
illustrator.
"We did not go to find the North
Pole,'' said Mr.. Donahue. "The re-
ward of 100000 offered by Lady
Franklin and others sent us north. We
Were intent only on finding the remains
of Sir John. After reaching so degrees
north I was attacked by scurvy and
had to return, eventually reaching st.
Johns, where / spent a long time in
the hospital. To cure me they buried
me in dirt every day for couple of
hours.
"Lieutenant Schwatka's party con-
tinued on north and reached 81 degrees.
They found the remains of some of the
Inflated polar party but not Sir John s.
They discovered some of the Franklin
caches and returned with some of his
spoons which are now on exhibition in
museum.
at is my opinion that scurvy at
tackled that party, and that eventually
through necessity for food most of the
members of the party were eaten, and
that Sir John s bones finally found a
resting place in the bottom of the polar
sea"
While Mr.. Donahue says the cold of
the far north is terrible, yet they were
clad in Eskimo clothing of fur. The
only parts of their bodies exposed were
their faces That the region about the
pole is an open sea, Mr.. Donahue says
is proven by the fact that whales har-
pooned in the Boring Sea, for instance,
are frequently discovered again in the
Hudson Bay.
Mr.. Donahue was here about twenty.
five years ago while he was making a
tour of the world. He came here on
vessel from Australia and was in
town only few hours. He found Ho-
nolulu an interesting city then. Its
present prosperity he believes to be due
to the activity of the Federal govern
ment in constructing so many perma-
| nent military works and he believes
that this prosperity will continue. He
also believes that the present difficulty
in transportation between Honolulu and
| the Coast should be remedied and that
suspension of the coastwise law might
bring it about.
