SKIN TROUBLES GROW WORSE.
RALPH S. HOSMER,
superintendent of Forestry.

Eczema, Psoriasis, and other skin
troubles are caused by myriads of
germs at work in the skin. Unless
these germs are promptly destroyed
they rapidly multiply, knawing their
way deep into the sensitive tissue.
This is what causes that awful itch,
and what seemed a mere rash may
grow worse and develop into a loath-
some and torturing skin disease with
it's years and years of misery.
Don't take any chances! Destroy
the germs at the beginning of the
trouble with that soothing and cleans
ing wash, the d. d. D. Prescription
for Eczema.
We have had experience with many
remedies for skin trouble but have
never-never seen such remarkable
cures as those from D. D. D. Prescrip-
ton, Instant relief from the very
first application.
If you have skin trouble of any
kind, investigate the merits of d. D.
D. We know that D. D. d. will help
you. Benson Smith & Co.

FORESTER HOSMER WOULD HAVE
EBEN LOW RECLAIM KAHOOLAWE

81, 1911, to rid the island of the ami
mails now remaining thereon.
Following the removal of all sheep
and goats from Kahoolawe the next
most important thing is to encourage
the spread of the algabora forest,
Under all the circumstances | believe
that for Kahoolawe the most effective
available way Of accomplishing this
end is by such method as that just
suggested.
Mr.. Low has figured the matter out
carefully and believes that by using
hardy Hawaiian mares, accustomed to
rough range, he could successfully
raise strain of mule colts sufi-
GENTLY good to meet a certain de-
mand in the local market. He esti-
mates that he could sell his colts for
enough to justify him in making the
repairs that are needed to put the
wells and cisterns in shape and IN
complying with the REQUIREMENTS as
to reclamation that would be de-
handed by the government. That the
matter may be brought to a head Mr.
Low has made application that such
a license be granted him and has sub
mitted a prospectus showing how he
would operate the business. A copy

Continued from page One)


The value of the pill grass section
rests largely in the fact that algaroba
trees are gradually coming up all
over it, In time as the forest spreads,
it will be of much more value, for
stock feed, for honey rights and for
wood. The feed furnished by the
algaroba means and the pill grass is
sufficient to carry a limited number
of horses, provided they can get
water. With some slight repairs the
cisterns and the wells already on the
island can be put into shape to sup
ply enough water for from 100 to $50
head. BY the construction of adIi-
tional cisterns the number of head for
which there is dry feed could prob
ably be doubled. By licensing the use
of this section for some such limited
number of horses, for a short term of
years, under definite restrictions, not
only will algaroba seed be spread
more rapidly over the land, but in ad-
ditior some revenue can later be got
which could be used in the Inaugural
ton of other lines of reclamation,
An extension of time has recently
been granted Mr.. Eben P, Low, whose
lease OF Kahoolawe expired December
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-02-13

these spots and carrying It with pack
animals, systematically to place It at
strategic points along all the gulches,
so tb 1t the spread of the algaroba for.
est may be hastened in the places
where it is most needed. Later were
additional laborers employed, they
should put inf part of their time on
other planting work, as of trees and
soil-binding plants on the upland, CO.
coanuts along the shore. etc.
(S) Have his employees read the
three rain gauges now installed on
Kahoolawe and make and transmit to
the territorial forester such other
meteorological observations and rec
ords as may from time to time be re-
quired.
(9) Have his employees assist, as
far as they reasonably can, such
agents of the board of agriculture and
forestry as may visit the island, espe-
cially by allowing them the use of
horses and by providing them accom-
modations at their camps.
1O) Use every reasonable en-
deavor to rid the island of any sheep
and goats that may have escaped at
the time of the drives.
QD Later, at the expiration OF
the five years term, it will probably
be found advisable to require the con.
struction of fences to shut off the pill
grass area from the upper lands, on
parts of which by then some of the
native grasses will probably have re-
established themselves. A provision
covering such work could we'll be in
serted when the schedule of payments
came to be adjusted at that time. For
the present 1t is not necessary that
such fences be built but it would be
a good plan if the licensee were re-
quired, upon request, to fence in
small plots at such points on the
mountain as might be designated by
the forester for experimental plant.
ing. 1t could be specified that not
more than a stated length Of fence,
say 1900 feet, would be required in
any one year
1t is of course necessary that a
responsible person be secured as Ii
censee. For several reason Mr.. Low
seems to be as satisfactory man to
take charge of this work as the board
is likely to secure. Having had ex-
perience with Kahoolawe he knows
the difficulties that must be met He
is already equipped with boats where.
by the island can be reached. And
he has a liking for Kahoolawe that
causes him to regard such a PROPOSE
ton as the present in the same light
as another man might look upon some
other avocation.
Believing then that the government
stands to gain from whatever reclaim
alton work is done on Kahoolawe and
that the program here proposed is one
that will work out satisfactorily in
practice, l recommend that the board
approve it and authorize the issuance
of the license containing the provi.
siors suggested.
Very respectfully,
RALPH S. HOSMER,
Superintendent of Forestry.

Apart from the arrival of the
Cleveland there was quiet time
along the front this morning. There
was absolutely nothing doing. The
Cleveland, of course, made quite a
stir when she locked at the Alakea
wharf shortly after eight o'clock but
the crowd soon dispersed, and there
is no work going on aboard her, such
as discharging or taking on cargo.
Tomorrow will be a busy day. The
Mexican should wander in some time
from the Sound, the Lurline and the
Sherman are expected late in the aft
ernoon, and there will be some inter
island arrivals.
TRUTH SACRIFICED
FOR SENSATION
The report was recently published in
an afternoon paper that the Kiyo
Maru was disabled in midocean
through shortage of coal, and that
she had to be towed into port by a
Japanese waEship, The chief engineer
was said to have committed suicide
because the worry of the disabled ship
had been too much for him.
The story was fine for a paper that
makes a feature of sensations ire.
spective of accuracy, but unfortunate
ly the agents for the T. K. X. line,
Castle & Cooke, have not got the same
way to look at things, and have de,
MED it, just as they denied the state
ment made in a morning paper that
a girl was washed overheard from
the Nippon Maru.
T. H. Petrie, secretary of Castle &
Cooke, puts the matter right in the
following letter:
in view of the reports recently
published in the local papers in con
nection with the voyage of the S. S.
KiyO Maru from Honolulu to Yoke
hama, we would state that the fol-
lowing excerpt is from a letter address
ed to us by Mr.. s. Asano, president of
the Togo Kisen Kaisha, under date
of January 49, s. S. Kiyo Maru, voy-
age No. 4, home: AS you are aware,
this vessel left Honolulu with 1866
tons of bunker coal, according to the
calculations of the chief engineer, but
later on it was found that ne had
made a miscalculation and that the
actual quantity on board was a little
TESS than it should have been leaving
Honolulu, When the shortage of coal
was discovered, the captain ordered
an investigation of the actual amount
of coal on board and satisfied himself
that the ship could arrive at Yokoha-
ma safely if the weather conditions
were favorable. Unfortunately after
this the weather became unfavorable,
and if this condition had continued an
actual shortage of coal might have
occurred, of which fact Captain Togo
fully advised us by wireless, This

information being misunderstood by
the outside public it was rumored that
the ship was disabled in midocean,
which report was absolutely unbound
ed. After Captain Togo communicated
with us by wireless the weather con-
ditions improved and this vessel ar
rived in port under her own steam with
one days bunker coal still on board
after her arrival
We have to report to you that on
the voyage from Honolulu to Yoko-

disappeared, and it is supposed that
he was lost overheard
NEW MATSoN LINER.
S. f. Examiner-The construction
of a new liner that will have greater
speed than any other boat now plying
between San Francisco and Honolulu
is being planned by the Matson line
for that run. The new liner will be
similar in general construction to the
same company's steamer Wilhelmina,
which now runs to Hawaii, but her
engines will be placed farther aft than
in the Wilhelmina thus giving a con-
siderably higher speed capacity The
new liner will be a 6,00O-ton vessel
and will double the Matson lines pres
ent passenger carrying capacity
SIERRA BOOKINGS LARGE.
S. F. Call, February 4.--The Oceanic
Steamship company's liner Sierra, Cap
tain H. c. Houdlette, which arrived
Friday at Honolulu from this port q
day ahead of it's regular time and will
be here Monday week instead of a
week from Tuesday, The liner will
leave here again for Honolulu the fol-
lowing Friday, February 16. This
change, for the one trip only, was
made so as to make It possible for
the passengers to reach Honolulu in
time to witness the great floral parade
which is the biggest event of the year
in the mid-Pacific The Sierra Will
arrive at Honolulu early February p,
the day of the celebration
To enable the passengers who take
the round trip to make the most of
this extra day special arrangements
have been made for a side trip to the
volcano of Kilauea, which is one of the
wonders of the world. There will be
time to visit the volcano, whose I'M
quenchable fires never glow with more
the year, and enough time to spare be-
fore the Sierra sails again for the
visitors to see a good deal of Honolulu
and the surrounding country.
The liner will leave Honolulu Feb
ruary rs and will be home again
March 5, The round trip will take
only seventeen days.
Up to yesterday more than 100 pas
sengers had been booked for this trip.
Among those booked are tourists
from all parts of the world There is
one party of thirty people from Chi
cago and large number from New
York
