FOUND RIGHT PATH

In 1890 I began to drink coffee.

Tn 1890 / began to drink coffee.

joyed life. At first noticed no bad
effects from the indulgence but in

troubles were coming upon me.
"Palpitation OF the heart took unto
Itself sick and nervous headaches, kid
ney troubles followed and eventually
my stomach became SO deranged that
even 2 light meal caused mo serious
distress.
Our physicians prescriptions failed
to help me and then | dosed myself
with patent medicines till I was thor
oughly disguised and hopeless.
Finally began to suspect that cof-
fee was the cause OF my troubles. ex-
perimented by leaving It off, except
for one small cup at breakfast. This
helped some but did not altogether re-
neve my distress. IL satisfied me,
however, that was on the right track.
so gave up coffee altogether and
began to use Postum. In ten days l
found myself greatly improved, my
nerves steady. my head clear, my kid
neys working better and better, my
hearts action rapidly improving, my
appetite improved and the ability to
eat hearty meal without subsequent
suffering restored to me. And this con.
dition remains.

Mcchesney Says Coffee.
J. M. McChesney, declares that the
best opening for the white farmer in
this Territory, is in growing coffee.
The price, he thinks, is likely to con
tinue good for a good many years TO
come. Just at present it is about u
to Ia cents per pound. At 8 or cents
which it was year ago, Japanese
We're able to make living from coffee

something with it. Then, too, he re-
minds us, that the Louisson Brothers,

good many years, and appear to have
prospered in reasonable measure, at

Henry a Farmer.
High Sheriff Henry says that he's a
small farmer, with his 25-acre place
at Kaneohe, part of which he rents
out and the rest of which he expert
ments with He says he was raised on
a farm, and that it would take at
least 100 acres of land for man to

himself and his family he doesn't be-

Sociological Obstacles.
j. E, Higgins, horticulturist of the
u. S. Experiment Station, is also not
a very strong believer in the outlook
for the small farmer in Hawaii. He
believes that sociological conditions
rather than natural, however, are the
obstacles. He states that things can
be grown here as we'll as elsewhere
provided they are right kind of things
for the particular place THE people
here have got to decide" he thinks,
upon some definite policy towards
this matter"
Apparently he is half-minded that
they have already decided, and that it,
is against the small farmer.

Hawaii under reasonably good condi
lions The Government sold seven
( teen lots in this district, and not one
settler forfeited his holdings. Every
piece of this land would today bring
many times the price per acre that
was paid for it, and there is probably
none on the market.
Dr. c. A. Peterson and Emil Abra-
hansen, of this city, hold homestead
lots at Keaau-away around the isl
and beyond Waianae-where the first
year after they took the land they
raised $500 worth of watermelons.
They are now experimenting with
cotton, and believe that they have
found a still better paying crop. DR..
Peterson is superintendent of the
Oahu Insane Asylum, and Mr.. Abra-
hansen is a guard at the same insti-
tuition. They took their land under a
ten year homestead lease plan, and if
they obtain title they will have to live
five years upon it, From the present
outlook it will probably pay them to
give up their positions and become til
lers Of the soil in fact.
Ignorance Caused Failure.
J. d. Tucker, chief clerk of the
Land Office, is personally a strong,
believer in the future of small farm
ing in this Territory.
"The biggest reason for failure in
the past" said he, has been through
ignorance of conditions. Men have
come to the Territory and taken up
lands, utterly without knowledge of
what the land was adapted for, or in
situation without roads or other
transportation facilities; have spent
what money they had in the first eff
fort, and have had to give up.
There is good land still to be had,
and in the course of few years there
viii be more. 1t isn't going to be
school boy work, but with assistance
that can and should be given intellj-
gent men, with a reasonable amount
of money will make success. The
right kind of homesteader is going to
stick and make good if you give him
a little encouragement in the way of
help in selling his product, and advise
in what to plant etc"
transportation Needed.
Marston Campbell, Superintendent
of Public Works, and until recently
also Commissioner of Public Lands,
doesn't believe small farming will
succeed in Hawaii until transportation
facilities and markets can be assured.
He is frankly pessimistic, although he
made the prediction in the course of
his talk that the time will come when
some one will be raising chickens or
pigs on every acre or two of ground

Byron Clark's Experience.
Byron o. Clark, one of the pioneer
Small farmers who helped to de-
Velop the pineapple industry at Wa
hiawa, and who probably knows the
ups and downs of small farming in
Hawaii about as we'll as any man in
the islands, read Mr.. Kelseys letter,
and remarked; well, he's about half
right"
What about the other half" he
was asked.
"A man who knows how" declared
Mr.. lark, should be able to make
a living today from pineapples Then
Mr.. Kelsey, in former published let
ter, weakened his case when he men
toned dairying as one of the impos-
sible industries. Dairying should be
one of the most profitable industries
in Hawaii. l have demonstrated it's
possibilities, and proved a good many
years ago that high grade cattle can
be raised profitably here-a thing
was assured could not be done by
kamaainas But l didn't learn it with
out experience, for my California
farming experience was useless here
There we had had to contend with an
alkaline soil, while here we found an
acid soil, requiring altogether differ
ent treatment"
Mr., CLARK should properly be con
sidered a successful small farmer in
Hawaii, although he declares that he
made no money for all his years of
hard work at Wahiawa. But he him
self explains that he was unable to
take advantage of his opportunities
for the season that he had no money
to start with, and was compelled to
go into debt to get started at all. To.
day he is head of what he calls a
little family hui, consisting chiefly of
his son and son-in-law e. r. Els

business at Pupukea, on land home

Bad Workmanship Alarms.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.-Oficials
of the navy department are consider
ably concerned over the report from
Norfolk that shells from the battleship
Delaware in it's long-range firing at the
old San Marcos in Chesapeake bay fell
close to the repair ship Panther. 1t
is generally believed here that the
Delaware did not mistake the Pan
Their for it's target, but that projectiles
fired at the San Marcos struck the
water and ricochetted at a sharp angle
in the direction of the repair ship.
Some of the naval experts are uues-
tioning why the Panther was within
range of the Delaware's big guns. The
department had thought that the
scheme of the practice was laid out
so that every ship acting as a Spec
tator would be anchored at a safe dis
lance away. No word has yet been re-
ceived from Rear-Admiral Osterhaus.
