WHAT THE WILLING WORKERS NEED,
SAYS MANAGER BULL, IS LEADERSHIP
DisorderIy Elements Are
Still Keeping Good
Men Idle.

Had it not been for the sudden ap-
pearance of Maxine at Waipahu on
Tuesday night the strikers living in
the village might have voted to re-
turn to work. He held a meeting of
his own and the gamblers scared the
other fellows.
Howe ever, during the night many
japanese who wanted to return to
work slipped back through the dark
lanes leading into the plantation
premises and Joined the nucleus Of
twenty-five who had taken UP quar-
tiers in Watanabe's house under the
protection of a police guard. Yes
terday many more came in but less
manner, while a large number of
Waipahu strikers who have been liv-
ing in the village since they were
raid off, have packed up and come
to town in the last twenty-four hours.
Efforts are being made by Japanese
merchants of Waipahu, to discontinue
the strike A delegation called upon
Manager Bull yesterday afternoon
and talked the situation over, and
asked the privilege of interviewing
the returned strikers at Watanabe's

ing others into the plantation.

Last week the strikers at Kahuku
were paid off and orders were issued
by Manager Adams that all who were
not willing to return to work by Tues

tation premises There was some mis-
understanding about the order, ap
parently, for on Tuesday none left, but
they understood by evening that al
though they would be allowed to remain
on the plantation overnight, they must
all be off the premises by last evening.
Yesterday morning there was great
hurrying and packing and transporting
of household goods and by evening near
ly all the 400 japanese laborers, and

700 ENGINES
IN ONE ORDER
A Large Boat Builder Places an
Initial Order Which Exceeds
Anything on Record.

The w. H. Mullins Co., of Salem
o., manufactures of pressed steel
boats, has just closed the largest
order on record for engines. This
order goes to the Ferro Machine &
Foundry Co., of Cleaveland, and
includes 700 engines to be delivered
In the next 60 days. Mr.. Mullens
said in response to a question that
he was confident of splendid vol
ume of business and would no
doubt duplicate this order before
the first of May. These engines 60
into boats of various sizes and show
the marvellous growth of the power
boat business.
The advent of the gasoline motor
has wrought the most extraordinary
development in general boating,
not only for pleasure launches, but
also for small and large utility
boats. Ten years ago, motor driy en-
boats were as little thought of, and
even less, than the flying machine
is today, Where the sail boat and
rowboat sports were INDUCED in
very limitedly only in localities
where the best of boating facilities
were afforded years ago, today will
find every inland lake and river
that is at all navigable, as we'll as
the coast waters, floating its quota
OF power boats of all descriptions.
Even rowboats have been made con-
vertable by the development of the
small gasoline motor, weighing less
than the average human being.
Sailing, most exhilarating sport,
has largely given away to motor
boating and the percentage of sail
boats being used today without a
gasoline engine in them for auxili-
ary power is surprisingly small.
We have one of the Ferro Mach
inc & Foundry Co.'S, 3 horsepower
engines installed in our office to
run our presses. We have used it
eight months with good results.
Anyone who intends purchasing a
gasoline engine will do well to see
K. D. Burgess, who is local agent
for these engines.

Money Made in Live Stock I'm Csn-
trail Canada.
w. ]. Henderson, visiting Seattle,
agent at Spokane, Wash, and says:
l have neighbors living there, and
raising wheat, barley and oats for the
past twenty years, and are now getting
from the same land 20 to 80 bushels
Of wheat per acre, 40 to 60 bushels Of
oats.
1t was the first week of May when
got my tent pitched, but the farmers
all around had finished putting in their
crops, so only got fifteen acres broke
and seeded They advised me, as it
was late, not to put in much wheat, so
put in Eve acres wheat and ten acres
oats, one-half acre potatoes and vegeta-
bles. Ali kinds of vegetables grow
well up there-sweet corn, tomatoes,
onions, carrots, peas, beans. cabbage.
My wheat yielded about 20 bushels per
acre, for which l got 7e cents, others
got 80 cents oats threshed So bushels
per acre, for which got 35 cents per
bushel. You see | was three weeks
late getting them in still 1 was salts
fed.
From my observation, there is more
money made in stock, such as cattle.
horses and sheep, as prices are high for
such, and it costs nothing to raise
them, as horses live the year around
out on the grass. In fact, farmers turn
their work horses out for the winter
and they come in fresh and fat in the
spring. Cattle live out seven or eight
months. They NOW the prairie grass
and stack it for winter and give oat
straw. Ny neighbors sold steers at
$40 each, and any kind of horse that
can pillow, from $3.50 up. l raised sixty
chickens and five pigs, as pork, chick
ems, butter and eggs pay well and al
ways good market for anything a
man raises, so l have every reason to
be thankful, besides at the end Of three
years | get my patent for homestead
| heard of no homestead selling for less
than $1,000, so where under the sun
could an old man or young man do
better?
