MONEY IS CHEAP
IN NEW YORK

There would appear to be a favor
able chance just now for floating the
new Hawaiian loan in New York, ac-
cording to the following extract from
Duns Review of April 30:
Nothing of special significance has
occurred in the worlds money markets
and, locally, events still pursue an UNI
interesting course from day to day.
AS a matter of fact, the situation af-
fords but little opportunity for lengthy
discussion since it becomes monoton-
Gus to constantly dwell on the pro-
ncunced eheapness Of accommodation
here. Obviously, lenders with large
supplies of loanable funds lying idle
on their hands would welcome any
development that might tend to
change conditions for the better, yet
from present indications no relief from
the prevailing stagnation is in sight
Gold exports from New York to Cana
da have been resumed on a moderate
scale, DuJ SUCH movement Gull SCdICG-
ly be expected to attain sufficient pro-
portions to make any impression upon
interest rates, especially as currency
continues to be shipped to this center
in heavy volume from interior points.
Thus, there was a further addition
of nearly $9,5OO,OOO to cash holdingJ
OF the associated banks last week,
making a net gain of fully $lS,00,0J
within the past fortnight, and surplus
reserves have risen close to the S40,-
! 100000 mark-a figure that has been
| equalled at this time of year on only
one occasion since 1898. TherefolE in
view of this marked accumulation of
money here it is not surprising that
borrowers an obtain facilities at con-
cessions from previous quotations, al
though even at the attractive prices
now current the demand is decidedly
! limited"

WORMS MENACE
KONA TOBACCO

Kohala Midget: The Daniels are
fast making a record as the most ''effi-
cient curers" of tobacco. This is very
true, for they were born and reared in
the tobacco-curing profession. If you
want the latest article in the smoking
bill, call at the Daniels for those mild,
frbined-shape cigars, labeled "Medi-
um." A cigar of this variety will
just put you in a position to judge
whether it is the Kailua tobacco, or
the Keokea stuff.
The tobacco, in few sections of our
locality, has already been planted, and
the outlook is quite encouraging. 1t is
evident that constant rain will facili.
tate the transplanting of the tiny
plants; but if the weather turns the
reverse, that will hamper their
growth.
The worms are fast appearing, and
their works of destruction form the
main cause which discourages the
poor planters, this greatly retarding
the progress of the work.
To obtain some practical method of
DISCRIMINATING these pests, would sure
ly be the opening up of the future for
tremendous crop this year. For, the
sooner this is done, the quicker will
the entire land be put under cultiva-
tiOu

ENORMOUS MONEY
ACCOMMODATIONS

What is to be done in floating the
new Hawaiian loan should be gone
about quickly, for it is doubtful if the
conditions of the New York money
market were ever more favorable than
at this moment, or that the present
tremendous plethora of money will
long continue, or that after passing it
will for some years recur. The fol
lowing is from the special letter of
henry Clews, dated May G:
Conditions underlying Stock Elk
change securities, unlike those attend
ing mercantile and industrial activities
are showing gradual improvement.
These cross-currents at the moment
are to some extent natural since in
both instances they bear directly on
the supply of money and the channels
in which money can be employed, Be-
cause our merchants and manufacture
ers are not requiring their usual vol
ume of working capital and banking
facilities in their own special lines,
money is accommodating at an excep-
tionally active rate. Some other profit
able use must therefore be found for
this great accumulation unless the
owners of the funds are willing that
they shall remain idle and in turn I'M
remunerative. The latter would be en-
tirely repugnaht to all precedent. In
normal times people with money sell
dom allow it to remain idle; the natu-
raj course is to seek the securities
markets. In this connection it is worth
while recalling that surplus reserves
of our Clearing House banks, if we
exclude the abnormal year of 1908
Chat followed the financial unheaval
og 1900, are the largest held at this
season in any year since 1898, amount
ing to 4O,6S3,175. A year ago, the cor
responding surplus reserve was only
$6,771,15O.

THE BIGGEST ORDER FOR GAS
OLlNE PLANT.

What is undoubtedly the largest
order for natural gasoline equip
ment ever placed has been awarded
the Bessemer Gas Engine Company
by the Honolulu Consolidated Oil
Company of California. This big Or
der calls for eight SO horsepower Bes-
semer Direct Gas Engine Driven
Compressors, together with lighting
and pumping plant.
This order was placed after a
test on their lease by our w. D. or
Bill Shira, which test was thoroughly
successful.
Shortly after the first Of the year
the Honolulu company placed with
us their order for a testing plant
using one of our 6x6-inch compress
ors. Illustrating the manner in which
the Honolulu company pushed mat
tiers when they decided to investi'
gate this new industry, is the fact
that all preliminaries were arranged
by wire and the testing plant was ex
pressed across the continent. Sucf
methods are worthy of the success
they are bound to attain when the
plant is placed in orepation.

cARRoNIc ACID SNOW.

In less than a year the carbonic
acid snow treatment for birthmarks,
warts and rodent ulcer, first introduce
ed at Charing Cross Hospital, has
gained an accepted place in modern
therapeutics.
The early experiments with the
new remedy, described in these col
umns last June, have been so success
full in suitable cases that now practi-
cally every hospital in the country,
as well as thousands of general prac-
titioners and skin specialists, is max
ing use of the new medicament.
The snow is prepared by allowing
a thin spray of carbonic acid gas,
liquefied under pressure, to escape
into felt covering slipped over the
tap of the iron cylinder containing
the gas. The gas is deposited on the
| felt as a very fine powdered snow at
temperature of about 100 degrees
below zero. The snow is then solidi-
fed into an icy pencil by being tight
| ly packed into hard rubber cylin-
der with plunger.
Treatment consists of pressing this
intensely cold pencil of carbonic ice
for a few seconds against the birth
mark, wart, or rodent ulcer to be re-
moved The resulting intense cold
freezes the part, setting up severe To-
cal Inflammation, which leads to a
breaking down and absorption of the
frozen tissues. There is very little
pain and the wound heals naturally
in few days, leaving the skin practi.

The story of the Lake county sheep
dog that remained with band of
sheep for two weeks after the herder
had died is an interesting tale of the
hills. According to the owner of the
deg she kept the sheep rounded up,
drove away the coyotes, and cared
for a litter of puppies for Il days and
lost but a single sheep from a band
OF 1000 during that time. OF course
liz is possible the facts have been en-
larged upon to some extent 1t is
possible the herder had been dead
about two days instead of two weeks.
Il is a fact however, that many a
sreepman has had good reason to be
thankful to his dogs. At times they
are more reliable and more Jealous
