IMMIGRATION
RESUMPTION,
TANAkA'SAIM
Japanese Agents Secret Mis-
sion Revealed After His
Departure
CAREFULLY SOUNDED
PLANTERS ON PLAN
Apparent Intention to Secure a
Modification of "GentIe-
mans Agreement"

Discreet and moderate resumption
of Japanese immigration to Hawaii
vas the real object of the visit here
of Hon. Tokichi Tanaka, of the Nip
pom consular service, according to a
report that leaked out several days
ago, has been confirmed in a number
of quarters.
Mr.. Tanaka came here, it is stated,
to look over labor conditions and it
was stated also that he had come to
investigate the duality of citizenship
of Japanese already commented upon
in an interview he gave the Star-Bul
letin.
The fatal illness of the emperor,
Mutsuhito, upset his plans for a long
er investigation and he sailed for
Japan a few days ago with his work
unfinished. On the night of his sail
ing, the story first got out that he
had been working with utmost eau
:tion on a plan to enlist the planters
association for resumption of Jap
anese immigration of laborers. This
plan, it is said, was to have been
fully laid before the sugar planters
of Hawaii and had already been
broached in a careful way. rss.. !
Under the present "gentlemen's
agreement : which governs the imnni.
grant relations , of Japan and the
United States,I no, more laborers are
being permitted to temigrate to .Unclea
Sans territory. This gentlemen's
agreement Haf course would have had
to be- modified and any medication
involves a. delicate situation. The
Importance of, Tanaka's overtures in
this .directioniis warranted by the dip
lomatic manner in which he brought
the subject up while here.
Big Question Involved.
Among those who knew more or
less definitely of what Mr.. Tanaka
was doing, the feeling has prevailed
that if Japanese emigration to Ha-
waii were to be resumed, even on a
slight. scale, it would mean a deep
seated change in Japanese policy, and
that the whole question of immigra-
tfon of the NippOnese into the United
States might be reopened.
Just how far Mr.. Tanaka's work in
this direction has gone is not known
even yet. One channel that might
lead to the planters was tried with
out success an overture being met
with the statement that Japanese
labor immigration here is no longer
to be thought of.
According to what Hon, w. o.
Smith, secretary of the association;
said on the matter yesterday, Mr.. Ia
naka was investigating the prospects
for more Japanese immigration
while here, but proceeded about the
business with such roundabout diplo-
macy that the planters received no
definite proposition from him either
to entertain or to reject. Whether he
would have come to the point of sub
mitting any concrete proposal had he
not been suddenly recalled on ac-
count of the fatal illness of the late
Emperor can only be guessed at.
Mr. Tanaka called on me-" said
Mr.. Smith, "and' had a short con-
versation with him. | gave him let,
ters of introduction to some of the
agents and managers of plantations.
Didn't Come to Point.

CHINESE PARENTS HELD FOR
CHILD MURDER BY GRAND JURY

Attorney Andrews this afternoon
presented argument why the accused
Chinaman and his wife should be adj
mitted to bail until the hearing Of the
case.s He said the evidence apparent
Iy is only circumstantial, that the
prisoners are really innocent until
proved otherwise. that they are per-
sons of consequence in the Chinese
quarter, being worth in their own
right nearly $60,009 and that, IL they
are later proved innocent, the impris-
cnment would prove ruinous to them.

Safeguarding Seed Corn.
By Martin Nelson. Agronomist.

By Martin Nelson, Agronomist.
 We have reached the season of the year when the preservation of seed corn is at critical stage. The most important factor at this date is thorough drying of the corn. If your seed is not already gathered it should be done at once and properly stored for drying. At this time of the year when corn is wet by rains it is slow to dry out. Vitality of the seed is in dan ger. It takes no extreme condition to injure seed to some extent. No chances should be taken with weather condi- tions. It takes early gathering to make prime seed.
 Avoid mistakes in the process of gathering. Injury often results from seed corn being left in bags or boxes for a few days before being hung up or placed on racks. In case rain has wet the corn even slightly at gathering time, extra care is necessary to get the corn dried out quickly. Mould will start badly in twenty-four hours, and never fails to do injury. From what has been said it is apparent that seed corn should be gathered early and taken directly to the drying rack
 As general precaution do not place seed corn over any other stored crop, such as hay, grain ar potatoes. The room should be we'll ventilated with good roof and dry interior. Ventilate we'll on clear days and close up in very wet weather. When seed is well dried out it is practically secure. Cold weather will not injure dry corn. Therefore, if seed is well dried before cold weather it may safely remain or the drying racks until removed fol planting.

ANNUAL ELECTION OF OFFICERS.
Stockholders of Cannery Held Meet
 ing Last Saturday Evening.

The annual meeting of the stock holders of the Green Forest Canning Go. was held at the office of Manager Reeves on last Saturday night, the following officers being chosen for the ensuing year: M. S. Coxsey, president and treasurer; J. F. Walker, vice presi- dent; Ben Harbert, secretary.
 A review of the books indicated that, taking everything into consideration, the seasons business just closed has been profitable, enabling the factory to meet all current expenses and in- terest and have something left to ap- ply on the outstanding indebtedness.
 The total value of the pack this year is figured by Manager Reeves to amount to something over $17,0O and when combined with the pack of the Yocum connery, which was operated in connection with the Green Forest plant, amounts to $26, ,8O0.OO.
 There were only about sixty-five acres of tomatoes grown for the Green Forest cannery the past season, when to have run the factory to it's capacity, there should have been not less than a hundred acres more, On account of the shortage in acreage of tomatoes, apples were packed again this year with questionable results in the matter of profit to the cannery.
 Manager Reeves tried to impress it upon the stockholders that it is a mat ter of the utmost importance that the factory determine at once upon next seasons business and exert every ef- fort for an acreage of tomatoes that will be adequate to the capacity of the factory, for it has been demonstrated year after year that the one profitable crop is tomatoes, and that it is absolute ly impossible to jump out at seed sow ing time and get a sufficient interest stirred up to get the desired acreage
 With all it's reverses, the past sea- son proved profitable to the growers who stayed in the harness. Several growers report an income of thirty dollars to the acre for the past crop, which makes it by far the most pro- fitable crop that could have been grown.
 Experience has shown that tomatoes will withstand dry weather better than any other crop When the plant is once firmly rooted, it comes more nearly defying drought than any other vege. table planted. There is positively nc reason why a profitable crop of toma toes cannot be grown every year.
