H. A. Baldwin, manager of the Maui

1911 crop SO far has fallen under the
estimate, the dry fall and almost con
tinuous winter rains having set back
the crop noticeably. 1t has taken an
average of 1851 tons of cane to produce
a ton of sugar.
He estimates the crop at about 90,
900 TONS The 1912 crop, he says, is
very promising 1888 acres of plant and
2506 acres of ratoons having been cul.
tivated The usual acreage will be cul
tivated for the 1913 crop.
The manager says that the ranch de
partment has grown to be a profitable
branch of the plantation. The cotton

message which he desired me to con-
vey to the American business men.
A Governors invitation.
This district alone needs an in
vestment of five hundred million
francs of foreign capital. We are now
having drawn specifications Of vast
irrigation project for this great Gill
have, and to send to any interested
and responsible persons in America,
detailed information such as would be
necessary to make bids. Americans
are familiar with irrigation work and
skilled in this department of engineer
ing; so we should be very glad to have
responsible firms seek this contract
and | could assure them that there
will be no difficulty about the neces-
sary government concession
Here in the city of Adana we need
to install an electric lighting plant, a
tramway system, q water system, a
telephone system, and sewage sys-
TEN. All these public utilities are
open to foreign capital with a good
return and abundant security assured.
Not only will Adana, which has
sixty thousand inhabitants, grow to a
much larger city, with the advent of
the Bagdad railway and the develop
ment of our agricultural and cotton
industry, but to the east of us on the
Olician plain there should be another
city. 1t is bound to come. With 1t
will come all kinds of opportunities for
capital. / should be glad if you would
extend this invitation to interested
Americans.
I'm the way of general trade, there
is an almost unlimited field here. For
few years past we have imported
every year number Of modern agri-
cultural machines, costing as high as
$4,000 a piece. These came from Eng
land, yet we know that America is
the home Of modern harvest machin-
cry. Why do not your manufacturers
send out agents into all this agricul-
tural country, or secure native agents
in order to promote their business"
The governor went on to talk of the
changed order which brings in the
new fashions of the western style,
making a market for American shoes,
American collars and neckties, Amer
can clothes, American tools and many
of the accessories of western life. The
general commission merchant should
do as thriving o business as the capt.
talist In these regions where once the
Persians and Greeks and Romans and
Crusaders and Arabs fought historic
battles.
Where Americans Blush For the Flag.
Levantines are keener to see the
advantages Of trading out here as
Americans than are Americans them
selves. There have opened in this
country some schemes which Ameri-

the blue field is larger than the req

ing the field filled with stars, there ap-
pears upon it the white Greek cross.
Most Of the men in the company are
Greeks and thus they are flying the
Greek flag in defiance of all RESPONSE

that they would have to pay to the
Turkish government nor are they sub

Cattle in Passengers Places.
1t would be we'll if they were. When
I went aboard the New Jersey" she
was loaded with cargo and we'll down
to the water line. Then there were
later taken on $500 sheep and goats,
lifted aboard in punches by their hind
legs, and thrown scrambling upon the
decks. These were given the space
that ordinarily goes to second class
and deck passengers. They were
crowded in so that there was not room
to walk among them. Incidentally,
they were not given food or water in
the SO hours that | knew them to be
aboard. Thirty-one head of cattle
were also driven on to the upper deck.
A car load of melons were piled high
among the life boats.
Over and beyond all these, spraw-
ling wherever they could make, a

gers, chiefly pilgrims to Mecca whose

more picturesque than the goats.

boat, though I searched. AS for the
| life boats, some of them were occu-
| pied by the pilgrims who conducted
their household arrangements therein.
Passengers on the Bridge.
The advent of first class passen-
ger on this line was evidently unusual.
Absolutely no space is provided on
deck for first class passengers but |
was invited to share the captains
| bridge. 1t is no exaggeration to state
| that the filth on deck was from half
an inch to two inches thick. On the

there is handsome ikon before which

and was able to ask to have his pic

And that is the American Line"

made possible only by some sort of
official dereliction or connivance. The

Another Blow at the Novelist.

Is it we'll to marry the woman YOU
rescue from drowning? the New York
Evening Mail asks. The suit for d.
vorce for 'incompatibility of tempera-
ment," filed at Reno by a woman
whom her husband had plucked from
the sea at Asbury Park six years be-
fore. intimates that it is not well.
But wherefore? The reasons are
triple: ID People do not like to live
in constant presence of some one to
whom they are under SO heavy debt.

ness should rest on congenial tenn
peraments, not on some romantic
stunt. 90 Such marriages are usual.

wide shame of the American flag.
At this critical time there is danger
that such abuses of the American
name may injure the future Of Ameri-

American railway concession in China
brought the nation into a disrepute
there from which it has only OF late
been recovering. America asks moth
ing of Turkey except opportunity to

neighbors. The American government
should be at pains to see that all
American representatives shall be
worthy of the flag that they fly.

A HIT
What She Gained by Trying Again.

A failure at first makes us esteem
final success.
A family in Minnesota that now en-
joys Postum would never have known
how good it is il the mother had been
discouraged by the failure of her
first attempt to prepare it. Her son
tells the story:
1--WE had never used Postum till last
spring when father brought home a
package one evening just to try it, We
had heard from our neighbors, and In
fact every one who used 1t, how well
they liked it,
We'll, the next morning Mother
brewed it about five minutes, just as
she had been in the habit of doing
with coffee without paying special at
tention to the directions printed on
the package. 1t looked weak and
didn't have a very promising color, but
nevertheless father raised his cup
with an air of exceptancy. 1t certain
ly did give him great surprise, but
I'm afraid it wasn't very pleasant
one, for he put down his cup with a
look OF disgust.
Mother wasn't discouraged though,
and next morning gave it another trial,
letting It stand on the stove till boil
ing began and then letting It boil for
fifteen or twenty minutes, and this
time we were all so pleased with it
that we have used 1t ever since.
Father was a confirmed dyspeptic
and cup of coffee was to him like poi
son. So he never drinks it any more,
but drinks Postum regularly. He isn't
troubled with dyspepsia now and is
actually growing fst, and I'm sure
Postum is the cause of it. All the chill
dren are allowed TO drink 1t and they
are perfect pictures of health" Name

think call for vigorous investigation
by the government. The flag is fly
ing over enterprises which are not
conducted in American fashion, and
which bring into disrepute the good
name of the nation.
Most conspicuous among these, and
of especial interest to Americans just
now, because of the shipping subsidy
agitation is an American Line" OF
steamers which run to Mediterranean
ports, flying the American flag. 1t GER
tainly looks good to an American to
see the Stars and Stripes flying on
the stern of a vessel of some kind
until he examines the kind of vessel
and the story behind it. The Ameri-
can Line has fleet of nearly dozen
ships, bearing names of states. | know
most about the New Jersey" for on
her [ made a neYer-tO-be-repeated Voy-
age across the Mediterranean.
AS far as | can gather from various
sources, the company which owns the
ships nominally has the majority of
it's stock in the hands of Greek mer-
chant of Smyrna, who went to Amer
lea and became a naturallZed citizen,
and returned here for the purpose or
getting the advantages of American
citizenship. He is the nominal chief
stakeholder in the American Line, in
an ice company and cinemetograph
show, and other enterprises that are
opening under the American flag.
American protection releases them
from all obligation to the Turkish law.
By reason of the capitulations in
force here every American enterprise
is free from Turkish supervision and
an INSCRIPTIONS person or persons, as
may readily be seen, can greatly abuse
the rights of American citizenship.
What the Flag Covers.
In the case of this American Line"
which is a scandal throughout the Lee
want, the company ostensibly secured
American registration about a year
ago in order to escape the Turkish law
whereby its ships could be used for
the transport of troops. Critics say
that this is the same company that
previously ran the ships, but simply
under another and an American name.
They fly the flag over their Offices and
over the ships; but / venture to say
that there are not five persons in the
whole outfit who could tell whether

tato or the president of the United

Chicks must have fresh water.
Never expect to work miracles with
the cow.
Chicken wire makes a good trellis
for tomatoes.
The. greatest damage to soil is
usually done after harvest.
Grind the corn you feed the old
sheep. Their teeth may be poor.
Young chicks still with the hens
thrive better on "a variety of foods.
The disk. is the tool to prepare the
corn stubble for the small grain.
Horses enjoy a good drink, but they
don't have to go to town to get it.
Never throw fruit of any kind into
basket or box. Lay 1t in gently.
The production of a cow above a
certain standard constitutes the pro-
fit.
: Manure, sod and lime are three best
ways of increasing the humus in the
soil.
- Keep the hedges clipped. Buck
thorn is one of the easiest hedges
handled.
There is hardly limit to the re-
sources OF the rat to exterminate
chicks.
Sheep suffer the least from a def
cheney of drinking water, and horses
and cattle the most.
1t is we'll worth while to exert every
energy possible to keep your present
supply of live stock
When the pigs tails begin to hang
down straight it is time to get out
the worm medicine
A good colt bred for a purpose, and
fed and trained for purpose, is never
drug on the market.
Spray pumps and spray materials
are now the main topic of converse
ton among fruit growers.
The best use Of stable manure is to
haul 1t out as fast as made and spread
it broadcast over sod ground.
The present shortage Of forage
crops should emphasize the necessity
for a reserve supply in silos.
More small hogs have probably been
marketed in the last two years than
ever before during the same time.
For the protection Of dairy stock, as
we'll as for live stock generally, wind
breaks and tree sherter are invaluable.
A little salt sprinkled with coal
ashes is as much relished by the hogs
as Cracker Jack" is relished by the
boys
The first step in better cream quail
ity in hot weather is to separate the
MIXED.
Keep the new strawberry bed clean
cultivated until the runners are mat
ted too much to permit the cultivator
10 go through.
Those farmers who kept up their
cultivation of the soil not only kept
the corn over the dry spell but in
creased the yield.
The wild high-bush cranberry, com
mon In many marShy districts, Is
good. both as an ornament on the
lawn and for making jelly.
The right time to castrate pigs is
week or so before they are weaned,
IL healthy; if delicate, wait a week or
so until they are stronger.
All milk cans should be washed
first in cold water. then thoroughly
cleansed with warm water, and finally
rinsed in scalding hot water.
We cannot expect even the best
pure-bred to produce animals without
blemish every time. 1t is always a
case of the survival of the fittest.
An excellent plan in providing
against shortage of pasture is TO grow
each year some of the supplementary
crops. such as rye, millet, COW peas,
rape or sorghum, to be used during
the dry season.
After some summer rain you will
find your hogs wallowing in some
ruddle and enjoying 1t. Then is the
time to have crude oil on hand and
pour a pailful in the wallow. 1t
will float on top and kill the lice on
