MADE A HIT
Five Hundred Cases Sent to Seattle

Were Ordered.

HONOLULU T. H., Aug. 19-The
five hundred cases of canned pineap-
pies sent on by the Promotion Com
mittee for serving at the opening of
the Hawaiian building at the Alaska
Yukon exhibition at Seattle proved so
popular that the representative there,
VIII ]. Cooper, cabled for second
consignment. The pines We're collect
ed from various members of the Pine
apple Growers association. Secretary
Wood of the Promotion Committee
is now working on proposal for a
pineapple Day fete to be held in
Hawaii some day each year during
the height of the pineapple season.
The weather in the islands is delight
full at that time. The object of the
celebration is really to call attention
to the fact that summer in Hawaii is
the pleasantest time of the year in
the paradise of the Pacific. No hot
weather in Hawaii.

mands upon them are both uncertain.
If we were to enter upon general
plan extending over series of years,
such as the public interest seems to
require, and provide no means to carry
on the work except appropriations
from time to time out of the general
revenues, we might find the work
suddenly left without money. The
old plan of separate appropriations
for specific localities is also unsatis-
factory. 1t is often wasteful and I'M
businesslike to assemble an expensive
plant of dredge boats, ETC., to spend
some limited appropriation. When
the plant and equipment necessary to
perform some large construction work
is once assembled it should be con-
tinuously employed in order to be
economical and profitable. For these
reasons | believe that waterways I'M
provements should be planned as a
| whole and financed as a whole. Bonds
should be authorized similar to those
i issued for the construction of the
Panama canal. Such bonds could be
issued from time to time as the work
progressed. This is the most scien-
| tific, economical and businesslike way
of financeering a great construction
work. The bonds can be sold at
low rate of interest, as our national
debt is growing smaller though our
population is increasing"

for Samose If II Does Not Make
NJ Thin People Fat.

Samose, the reliable flesh forming
food should be used by all who are
pale, weak and thin. 1t mingles with
the food and aids assimilation, so that
when taken for a short time, Nature
will soon assert her normal powers,
and the food that is eaten will give
strength and good flesh.
Weigh yourself before you COM
mence the use of Samose, and you will
notice a steady gain. Samose is a
scientific flesh-forming food that re-
stores the thin and scravny to their
proper weight and fills the weak and
Gebiliated with vigor and vitality.
The woman who longs for rosy
cheeks and the plumpness of beauty
should use Samose. The man who
wants to be strong and well and gain
health and good flesh, will find his
desires accomplished by Samose.
Such rema kable results have fol
lowed the use of Srmoso that Erug
gists McGrath Bros. are Wiling to pa,

ANOTHER BIG BOAT
TO BE BUILT
Dubuque Concern Will Construct a
Mammoth Ferry Which VIII
be Brought Past Keokuk.

The Dubuque Boat and Boiler works
of Dubuque have closed a contract
with the Frisco railroad system for the
construction of mammoth railroad
transport boat which will be an exact
duplicate of the Albatross, which was
built by the same concern for the
Queen & Crescent system a year or
two ago. The deal was closed Friday
afternoon and the Dubuque concern
will commence the construction of the
big transport just as soon as the mate
rial arrives.
The new boat will be a mammoth
affair, costing in the neighborhood OF
1925 900 The hull will be 305 feet
long, have a 521a-foot beam and will
be 80 feet wide over all. The bottom
plate of the boat will be from 1-16th to
9-16tl of an inch thick. the side plate
will be one-half inch thick and the
deck plate will be one-quarter of an
inch thick. There will be thirty-nine
water-tight compartments in the boat,
the boat being equipped with four Bon
son boilers IS feet by " inches. The
engines will have 26-inch bore and a
1O-foot strike The deck and wheel
houses will be made of steel with the
usual roof and pilot house The boat
will be double-tracked and will carry
sixteen loaded freight cars.
When the boat is completed it will
be taken to Baton Rouge, where IL
will operate across the river, carrying
| the freight and passenger trains OF
the Frisco railroad system at that
point. The deal for the contract has
been pending for some time and the
awarding Of this big contract to the
Dubuque Boat and Boiler works shows
the efficiency of the concern to handle
contracts of this character. The All
batross which was also built at Du
buque, is proving its worth in every
way and the efficiency of that boat II
handling the large trains of the Queer
& Crescent system is responsible, il
part at least. for the awarding of thu
contract for the new boat to the Du
buque concern. The new transport vii
be called The Frisco"

BORLAND'S IDEA
OF WATERWAYS
Missouri Congressman is Firm Be-
lever in the Improvement Of
the Water Courses.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-Congress-
man William P. Borland, of the Kan
sas City district, is firm believer
in the use of the waterways as
solution of the transportation problem
and in the whole range of govern
mental activities he knows of no sub
ject which partakes less of partisan
nature than the Improvement of the
water courses of the United States.
Speaking of this subject which has
taken such hold on the business in
terests of the country, Mr.. Borland
said:
Transportation is commercial
question appealing to the sound selse
of business men. The enterprise of
the railroads has done wonders in
the development of the great produc
ing regions of the west, but the las
decade the production of commodities
in that great treasury of national
wealth has increased six times fast sr
than transportation facilities. Freight
congestion is an annual condition. de-
nloralizing the business and retard-
ing the prosperity OF the wnoie coun-
try. We need more expansive
system. 1t is national need as we'll
as local one and can only be met
by wise combination of local pro.
jects.
II believe in the adoption of a gen
eral and comprehensive plan for the
permanent improvement of the water
ways, as urged by the National Rivers
and Harbors Congress. We should
have broad scheme and butld for
the future. The great Mississippi
system is the most wonderful group
of navigable streams in the worl1. 1t
reaches into very heart of the pro-
ducing regions of the country from
whence comes the largest volume OF
our national exports. The Missouri
river, the longest and most westerly
branch, will carry deep water ID the
very center of production. Within
the watershed of the Missouri river
and west of the Mississippi ara the
centers of production of wheat, corn
oats cattle. hogs, horses and mules
sheep, wool, farm products Of al
kinds. gold, silver, lead and zinc
This vast territory is developing rapid

prosperity is the nations safeguard
against panics.
"The engineering problems involved
in these Improvements have been solv
ed by the experience and study of the
engineers of the war department anf
the matter is now ripe for action
The need is pressing if we do not wisl
to retard the growth of the great in
land sections of the country.

ment has not the money to enter upol
