diversified agriculture In Hawaii. In
his Introductory remarks on the sub
ject, DR.. Wilcox says:
During the past year gratifying sue
cess has been had In developing a sub
stantial interest in the diversification
of agriculture In the Territory. The
apparent hesitation which has FIRE
quently been shown by citizens of the
Territory in engaging In general lines
OF agriculture has evidently been due
not to any doubt as to the possibility
OF raising a great variety OF crops, but
to lack Of specific data as to where
the best seed may be obtained, the best
cultural methods for these crops, and
facilities for marketing them. All OF
our citizens. who are most actively In
terested In the development OF the Ter
ritory, have gladly welcomed any In
formation or experimental data which
may serve to establish on a business
foundation any line Of agricultural in
dustry which promises commercial sue
cess. This statement is fully justified
by the active interest shown In the
pineapple industry, the development OF
rubber plantations. the rapid spread OF
cotton planting. the cooperation, of land
owners aud growers In making the rice
crop more profitable and In the general
activity In increasing the acreage Of
forage crops. garden crops and miscel
laneous fruits and crops.
THE area planted to corn Is being
rapidly enlarged and satisfactory re
turns are everywhere being reported
From larpa araao ayaroUo vIaldc of fnr
ty bushels per acre of corn have been
obtained under rainfall conditions car
rying from 5 to 240 inches per year
and at attitudes ranging from sea leve
to 5000 feet. The acreage OF alfalfa
sorghum, Rhodes grass, Para grass
cowpeas, jack beans, soy beans and
other forage crops is increasing at 9
corresponding rate
mot only are these crops which are
regarded as the mainstay OF agricul
ture In temperate climates. considered
as worth while In themselves. but theil
Importance In systems of rotation II
being recognized, and this means thai
the further extension of the area de
voted to miscellaneous crops will pro
coed more rapidly In the future thar
In the past.
"The definite policy has been adopt
ed of making the chief work OF the
members of the STAFF that of investiga
ton. in order that actual contributions
may be made to the sum total OF agri
cultural science. Naturally, however
some attention mus. be given from
time TO time to misce laneous requests
for practical information from farm
ers. An attempt is made however t.
prevent this work from interfering to-
greatly with the regular lines OF In
yestigation."

TWENTY MEN IN PERIL
ON FOURTH AND FIFTH FLOORS
OF BURNING BUILDING.

NEWARK. N. j., September 12-There
were several narrow escapes today from
a fire which gutted the first four floor of
the five-story manufacturing plant at
Murray and Austin streets. owned by
Shiman Bros, jewelers., OF New York
city, and occupied by several jewelry
manufacturing firms. The fire is said to
have been caused by spontaneous COM
Dustin.
Twenty men on the fourth and fifth floors
found their escape shut off by the dense
smoke that poured up through the build
ing. One of them jumped into a life net
and was injured by a rebound to the
sidewalk. and the others refused to risk
the jump.
Close to the building. however. was a
machine used by an artesian well dig
ger. Nine of the men managed to reach
a rope of the machine and down this they
slid to the ground one after another.

cued by means of extension ladders The

SURVEY WORK At NIGHT.
Plan Popular Among the Civil En-
gineers in Pittsburg.

PITTSBURG, Pa. September 49,
Civil engineers have added their COM
pany to the already large number of night
workers here. and believe that their idea
of surveying at night may be a really
new thing. The engineering corps of the
Pittsburg flood commission. which is
finding out just what work is necessary
to keep the three rivers from inundating
the lower city every spring. has lately
had success In making its observations
in the dead Of night.
The main advantage lies in the fact
that there Is no street traffic to hinder,
but II is also claimed that by the use of
electric flashlights the numbers on the
measured poles are more easily distin-
guished through the transit at night than
by day.
