INSURANCE RATES
NOT YET REDUCED

The Board of Fire Underwriters, at
its quarterly meeting yesterday after.
noon, discussed the matter of reduc.
ing basic rates both on residence prop
erty and in the commercial section,
but no action was taken except that
it was decided to announce that some
reduction will be made in the first in
stance when the new automobile fire
engines are in operation, and the
changes promised by the superintend-
ent of public works in the water works
system are completed, which will prob
ably not be until about next June.
There was no decision as to how much
this reduction will be, that matter
being left for a future meeting.
In The matter of business district
rates, the underwriters will not rec
ommend any change of rates until the
high pressure system which the SUI
perintendent Of public works proposes,
by which full head from some of
the upper Nuuanu valley reservoirs
may be turned into the mains, is es-
tablished. When this will be is not
certain, inasmuch as a good many of
the mains must be strengthened or
placed before they can stand the 200
pounds pressure or more to which
they would be subjected in case of
emergency.
The present rates are based on So
cents on the hundred, and any reduc-
lions made will be from this base, sub
ject of course to individual conditions
of location, character of buildings, etc.

THINKS HAWAII IS
MISSING CHANCES

Maurice F. Loewenstein, head of
the big shipping and importing firm
of Castle Brothers, Wolf G. Sons of
Manila, who has been in Honolulu
since the arrival of the Zealandia
from Australia last week, and who
will leave in the Mongolia for the
Coast, is of the opinion that Hawaiian
capital is negelcting golden opportuni-
ties in not getting a foothold in the
Philippines. He states that the sugar
business of the islands have tremend-
Gus latent possibilities which abe on
the eve of development.
By accounts published here, Ha-
waiian capital is not quite so slow in
tackling the Philippines as Mr.. Loe-
wenstein seems to think. There are
two or three pretty big propositions
in that quarter fairly we'll advanced
here, while the Honolulu Iron Works
has long since laid it's wires for sup
plying the Philippines with the most
modern of sugar factories.

Wausau Peopis Should Not Wait
Until 1t Is Too Late.

The appalling death-rate from kid
ney disease is due in most cases to the
fact that the little kidney troubles
are usually neglected until they
become serious. The slight symptoms
give place to chronic disorders and
the sufferer goes gradually into the
grasp of diabetes, dropsy, Bright's
disease, gravel or some other serious
form of kidney complaint.
If you suffer from backache, head
aches, dizzy spells; if the kidney secre-
tions are irregular of passage and un-
natural in appearance, do not delay.
J Help the kidneys at once.
Doan's Kidney Pills are especially

PICNIC AND DEMONSTRATION.

Alfalfa has been bringing good re-
suits on the asylum farm near Wau-
sau. Experiments have been con-
Quoted there, showing the best
methods of growing this crop. Some
seed has been sown with a nurse crop,
but the best results have been OBJ
tanned where no nurse crop was used.
Supt. M. III. Duncan has arranged for
a picnic and demonstration meeting
to be held at the asylum farm near
Wausau Monday, August IA. Prof.
G. P. Norgord, of the agronomy de-
partment of the College of Agricul-
ture in Madison, will be in charge of
the meeting and will give lectures on
corn curing, corn breeding, alfalfa
culture, pedigree grains, weed eradi-
cation and the management Of dairy
cows. Each of these lectures will be
illustrated. The visitors will be
taken into the field and into the barn
and those who wish to visit the asy-
lum will be escorted through it.
Every farmer in this vicinity is in
yited to come and bring his family,
especially the boys. Each family
should bring basket lunch. Coffee
will be furnished by the superinten-
dent.

Dan W. Fellows left Wednesday for

sister whom he has not seen in forty
years. She is his only near relative

Mr.. Fellows is one of our oldest
residents. He was born in the county
of Orange, N. H. He came here in
1855, walking all the way from Madi-
son, Wis. Meeting w. D. McIndoe
on the streets of Madison one day he
enquired what the prospects were for
work up this way, and was given a
favorable impression. When he ar
rived here there were but $50 inhabi-
tants in the village. He expects to
remain in the east several weeks, Wis
iting in and around Grafton.
