assured of every possible assistance
and cooperation of the Commissioner
of Lands
PROFESSOR GILMORE SYMPA-
THETlC.
When Mr.. Fisher presented his let
ter of introduction to Professor Gil
more he found the professor very sym
pathetic indeed. The pair had a long
conversation on the subject, but at
present nothing definite can be done
Professor Gilmore will give all the
assistance he can towards furthering
the project. The question of where
Mr.. Fisher would be located would
have to be settled by the Board of Re
gents. The idea if successful would
promote hte interest of local people as
well as of those in California. I'm
fortunately just now the lands are in
bad shape, but it is hoped that the
college will be able to accommodate
Mr.. Fisher. Nothing definite can be
done until the Board of Regents
meets. When this meeting will take
place cannot be said just now.
THE PROSPECTS GOOD.
Mr.. Fishers inquiries have opened
up rosy vista, and have brought to
light several things that seemed to
have been overlooked For instance,
if such a venture were successful it
would mean a great deal to the small
farmer in the production of corn,
string beans, tomatoes, green pep
pers, strawberries, ana other small
fruits and new potatoes. The Land
Commissioner considers that Mr..
Fisher should be encouraged in every
way.
Mr. Wilcox of the U. s. Experiment
Station some time ago made trial
shipment of sweet potatoes to Cali
fornia The shipment arrived in the
off season, and a net profit of six
cents a pound was made.
From this beginning by Mr.. Fisher
there may deevlop an industry that
will reduce Honolulu's imports of
such products, and bring about an
important export trade. A parasite
has been imported to minimize the ra-
wages of the cabbage butterfly, and
spraying is now being carried on in
various parts of the Territory, so that
it would seem that Mr.. Fisher will be
able to make a start in auspicious
circumstances.
The following figures regarding i'm
portations are eloquent testimony in
favor of the home grown articles.

Mr. Edward M. Ehrhorn, and are for

red, so he was given a letter Of intro

was that possibly Mr.. Fisher could
make some arrangement with Profess

could be set aside for the experiments
which could be conducted in conjunc-

course, the commissioner reiterated

Mr.. William S. Hudgins. he hav-
idg been apparently we'll up to
that morning. HIS niece, he hav-
ing not arisen as early as was his
custom, went to his room and
found him in an unconscious state.
He never spoke again. but died
shortly afterwards. The cause
wastprobably due 10 paralysis.
Mr.. Hudgins was the son of
William and Mrs. Eliza Hudgins,
both deceased. He had spent
the greater part of his life in
Mathews and was generally
known and liked by everyone.
He was converted in early life
and united with the Bethel M. Z.
Church and continued an earnest,
faithful member as long as he
lived. 1t seemed his chief motive
