IOWA'S FALLING
OFF IN FARMS

Washington, Nov. 2-Durlng the
last decade Iowa has shown material
decreases In the total number of its
farms, farmers and the extent of farm
acreage but these losses are over
shadOwed by the enormous increases
In the value of farm land, Implements
and buildings and the eNpend tlres
for farm labor. These facts are set
forth in a statement issued by the
census bureau regarding lowa's aSri'
cultural statistics derived from the re-
cent census Of agriculture as part
OF the thirteenth decennial census.
This falling OFF in the number of
FARMS the statement says, rs one
that has been anticipated by all stud
entS OF agricultural conditions in Iowa
and is believed to correspond quite
closely with an anticipated decrease

Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1910-12-02

While making so much fuss about
Governor Plaisted, the first Democrat
elected to the Governorship of Maine
for thirty years, they might also re-
member that the Republicans have a
in-thirty-years man to their
credit. GoveTnor-elect Hooper is the
first Republican Governor of Tonnes
see in thirty years. Curiously enough
his election was brought about quite
as largely by radical anti-Prohibi-
ton administration as Plaisted was
the product of Statewide disgust
with Prohibition. All of which goes
to show that the people want honestly
progressive men, working out progress
sive principles, regardless of the
titles of the political parties.

our MUNICIPAL BAND.

Speaking of the Hawaiian band and
the need for keeping 1t up to stand
ard, a tribute from the pen Of Robert
J. Burdette comes to hand through
the Pasadena News that is supporting
the agitation in Pasadena for Sunday
band concerts. Mr.. and Mrs. Burdette
are actively campaigning for the
Sunday concert and this is what Mr..
Burdette Ns in the course of a
signed statement published in the
News:
81 wish Pasadena might have
municipal band, such as they
have in Honolulu-a city of about
5000 white population. The mu-
sicians are municipal employees.
under direct command of the
Mayor. The band plays when
and where the Mayor orders. One
afternoon or evening in this park;
another evening and afternoon at
the hotels; every time a ship sails
for California, Oregon, or Wash
ington, the band must go down
and serenade the passengers for
half or three quarters of an hour
before the ship leaves the I~St.
There isn't class of city em-
ployes, not excepting the police,
who earn their salaries so fully
as does the municipal band.
IF you have leisure and in
clination to watch the notices of
its appointments, and follow II
around, you can hear the band
somewhere every day in the week.
That's something like a munic-
ipal band, | wish Pasadena had
something like that. Let us have
something beside talking ma
chimes and pianolas."
Everyone who comes to Honolulu
enthuses over the Hawaiian band as
q public institution and has nothing
but praise for the people who con-
