Tho Millions Of Quarts That Are An
nuaIly Baked and Eaten.
Boston baked beans are known
around the globe. In the city OF Bos-
ton alone about 100000 quarts OF
baked beans are devoured annually, to
say nothing Of the pork that goes with
them and the brown bread that Is also
served. There are factories or baker
les which handle nothing but baked
beans from one years end to the other
One of the largest Of these, which sup
plies restaurants wholly, bakes 1900
quarts of beans a week. Other baker
les also furnish brown bread, while
nearly every bakeshop that makes
bread, pastry and pies also bakef
beans several times a week. There
are bakeries with ovens that will hold
1000 quarts each.
The preparation and baking Of beans
are interesting operations. In estab
lishments where beans only are baked
1t Is done on a huge scale. There are
great kettles that hold two or three
bushels Of beans, and into these the
beams are put to soak and parboil
Then the pots Of earthenware, varying
In size from one quart to two gallons
are ranged around on tables and FLIED
from the big kettles. Every quart Of
beans is carefully picked over and
sorted and cleaned Of all dirt and deac
beans before being put into the kettles
The ovens are huge brick affairs, glow
ing red with heat. Experts consider
that beans cannot be properly cooked
| except in brick oven. Some OF thu
ovens hold 1000 quarts each. Filled
with The loaded pots, they present
sight worth beholding. So hot are thu
ovens that long handled fat shovel
| are used to push the pots In and TAXI
them out.-New York Tribune.

The Maine Central Railroad has been
perhaps the greatest and most persistent
advertiser of Maine as "the summer
playground of the nation" Now 1t is
experimenting this line of advertising
by advertising Maine as an agricultural
state, maintaining department for this
purpose. In connection with this it has
begun the issue OF a monthly agricul-
tural bulletin called New England Farms,
intended for free distribution among
present and prospective farmers of
Maine. The first number bears date OF
April, and looks we'll. Ii will help to
inform people of other states regarding
the possibilities OF Maine agriculture,
and may have some influence in strength
ening the faith of our own people in the
soil of Maine.

The present low price Of potatoes has
caused an attack of what is known 10
the dictionary of slang as ''cold feet" to
the growers in central Maine, where the
potato business was developing, and
they are going to reduce their acreage
considerably this year. Thus ever with
the faint-hearted, scared by one poor
season. Probably they will see good
yield and fair price this year.

those buildings owned by the Austin and Cummns estates
The Emmeuth building and the Stanley Stephenson
have already been condemned for Federal building purposes
condemnation proceedings against other properties involved will

At first the plans for Federal building, taking merely
about wOhds portion of what known block
but since the building that Honolulu awaits desired absolutely
uptOdate and splendid be- there
should be nothing short of the entire block
and dignity of the structure.
Hence the recommendations of such Architect Mars
ton Campbell and leading merchants individually and members
organizations procure the additional money necessary
demn the entire block bounded by King Fort Merchant and Bishop
streets.
cabegram received this morning from Washington stated that
the omnibus public buildings bill carried $4,000 for preliminary work

CRUISERS
ARE SILENT

Nothing official can be learned at
the Naval station velative to the ar
rival of the cruisers Cleveland and
Chattanooga. Chief Clerk Roenitz
when asked this morning for news
concerning the two ships that are en-
route from Guam for Honolulu and
San Francisco first consulted Admiral
Rees, then replied There Is no news
for publication"
According to a wireless received
yesterday, the Cleveland, with the
disabled Chattanooga in tow, was
four hundred miles from Honolulu but
it did not give their approximate
hour of arrival. At eight knots an
hour towing speed the ships could
hardly arrive much before Wednes-
day morning. AS far as can be learn
ed unofficially, the port propeller of
the Chattanooga caJVied away and the
Cleveland was obliged to go back
and take her sister ship in tow, which
is a hard JOB under any sea and
weather condition.
The Cleveland is commanded by
Captain Hugh Rodman, who is well
known in Honolulu, he having been
here as captain of the yard before
Lieutenant Commander Carter.
The following is a roster of the
officers on both ships:
Chattanooga: Captain John d. Nc
