'Col. Geo. Johnstone spoke at length
on the situation showing by historical
facts that no country had ever pros
pered where any system was followed
by which more than so per cent of
the total crop was confined to any one
crop. In other words, he emphasized
the Importance of diversifcation.

HOT SUPPERS AND RESULTS.
DR.. W. 4. Dunn Busy in Surgery-One
Negro Shot, One Cut in Two
Places.

There were at least two hot suppers
in the county Saturday night amongst
the negroes, both with the usual re-
sui.
Monroe Leitzsey gave a hot supper
Saturday night On his place near St.
Phillips church. There were some
negroes in the yard gambling and it
seems they had Monroas lantern. Mon
roe decided that he needed the Ian
tern and went to get it and was in
formd that he must not take it. Be-
ing his lantern, he felt he had right
to it and proceeded to pick it up. AS
he did so, Jim Wilson, one of the
negroes in the game, drew his pistol
and shot LeitZsey in the face just be-
low the left eye. Leitzsey came to
DR.. w. A. Dunn to have the wound
dressed and while dressing it the ball
dropped out of Leitzsey's mouth. DR..
Dunn says that the wound is not Sc
rious.
Another hot supper was in progress
on one of Mr.. S. P. Crotwell's places
near town. It is stated that at this
supper there was good deal of whis-
key. In the row Ben Jones was cut
across the face and back by VIII Bax-
ter. DR.. W. A. Dunn took eight stitches
in the wounds On Jones, but the doctor
says the wounds are not serious. Bax-
ter evidently had a dull knife.
DR.. Dunn had another call on Sun
day afternoon to set a broken leg for
negro On Mr.. H. L. Felker's Doolan
place. This was the result of a wrest-
ling match. 1t would appear from this
that DR.. Dunn vas very much in de-
mand for surgery during Saturday
night and Sunday.
Constable T. P. Adams went to the
hot supper at the Crotwell place, and
while the ground was literally cov-
cred with empty bottles he found very
little whiskey in possession of any Of
the parties.

SCIENTIFIC AID FOR SMALL
FARMERS AND H0RTICUL7URISTS

In accordance with joint resolu-
ton passed by the legislature, cores.
pondence has already begun with
mainland institutions with a view to
securing scientific aid for Hawaii in
eXterminating agricultural and garden
pests which are not specially looked
after by the entomologists Of the SUI
troduced by Representative Towse,
and provides $4,000 for expenses, the
money to be diverted from the fed
eral funds available for such work.
The following report on the resolu-
ton shows the work which it is ex-
pected will be accomplished:
Cotton Boil Worm. This pest, after
the first year of the growth of the cot
ton, destroys one-third of the growth
of the cotton, and depreciates, by dis
coloring up to twenty-five per cent Of
the value of what remains.
The Melon Fly. Which preys upon
cucumbers, melons, squash, pumpkins,
tomatoes, and beans, making the culti-
walton of some of these impossible,
and practically all of them unprofit-
able.
Alligator Pear Mealy Bug. This
pest has on the several islands done
enormous damage. For instance, in
the year 1909 one concern in Honolulu
exported to California twelve hundred
dozen pears grown on the Island OF
Oahu. 1t was the intention of this
firm to send the following year U910)
not less than five thousand $4,000
dozen pears to the Pacific coast Of
the mainland. but there were only
gathered, on account Of the ravages OF
the pest, in the neighborhood of nine
hundred 5000 dozen.
The Mediterranean Fruit Fly. This
pest attacks various fruits, and It's
ravages are at present confined to the
Island Of Oahu only, but there is ev-
cry probability that it will reach the
other islands and destroy entirely the
citrous fruit crop of the Territory.
Corn Leaf Hopper. The protection
of corn here means a great deal 70
the stock raisers, but, with the pres.
ence of this pest, the growing Of corn
for fodder purposes must very soon
cease,
The Japanese Beetle. A fungus has
already been introduced for the de-
struction of this insect, but does its
work only in the very damp sections
