banana plantations are being planted
over and over, year after year, until
the result is being found in the small
sized lunches that are being shipped
now. The land. or section of it,
should be given chance to rest. Mar
ket Superintendent Starrett has taken
the matter up with a number of the
Chinese planters and it is hoped that
these planters will be induced to fol-
low some system for the betterment
of the fruit. as the banana business Is
too large and profitable to be killed -

Meanwhile the tourist crop has been
coming in in style to please all the
business men taking an interest in the
American growth of the town. The
people have been arriving in large
numbers from all directions and the
steady flow bids fair to continue. IIo-
tel accommodations while taxed more
heavily than ever before are never
theless equal to the occasion.
Speaking of the growth of the town
the statistics of the Rapid Transit
company made public ut the annual
meeting held this week show that the
number of passengers carried Is stead
lily increasing especially the regu-
lar single fare traffic of the regular
lines, as distinguished from special
car service of one kind and another.
One instance of what the tourist
does for the town was brought to no.
tice through an experience of the
Trent Trust company. A tourist ar
irving by the Cleveland was so pleas
ed with the city and was so well as
sured of its future that before leav-
ing he deposited nine thousand dol
lars with the Trent Trust company
to be invested in real estate. The GER
tainty of IIonolulu's development APP
peals to the investors of the mainland
even more forcibly than many of our
own citizens. The time Is not far dis
tant when the investors and perhaps
the spectators will turn to real es-
tate as they are now head over heels
in sugar stocks.

.STATE makes SURVEY
>State Health Department to
Examine Water OFF
Ken0sha,
TO MAKE TESTS THOROUGH

Commissioner of Public Health DR.
John j. MeShane this morning receiv.
ed letter from DR.. NJ. T. Ravenel, OF
the Wisconsin State Health Department.
announcing that the state department
had planned to make d sanitary survey
of the wa tiers of Lake Michigan off Ke-
nosha and it is planned to begin the
work the 29th of July. The survey to
be made by the state will be one of
the most thorough Investigations of the
waters of the lake ever made at any
point in Wisconsin and it is expected
that the stake will be busy for six
weeks completing the examination of
the water.
The state board of health without
cost to the city will make the analysis
of hundreds of samples of water and
the only cost t.o be borne by the city
will be the cost of going out into the
lake to collect the samples of water.
It is thought that arrangements can be
made with some of the local tug own
ers so that this will be inexpensive.
Chemists of the state department viii
come to Kenosha on July Goth to start
the work of making the survey and
after the first days the work will be
carried on under the supervision of thu
commissioner of public health. The
plan of the state is to secure sampler
of water from every possible point
along the lake off B-enosha with a view
of finding to just what extent the wat
ers of the lake are polluted by sewage
now being poured into the lake. 1t il
declared that the survey made here will
be of great value to lake shore citiea
in both Wisconsin and Illinois.
People who have been taking an ac<
tive interest in the water problem in
Kenosna will be greatly interested in
the tests made by the state and it is
probable that the city council will hold
in allegiance all plans made for the con-
struction of a filter or the extension of
the intake until after the report of the
state department has been completed
and made public. Of course it will take
several months to complete the work
of making the analysis of the samples
of water sent, but when the report is
finally complete it will be the last word
as to the condition of the water of the
lake.

vided among the creditors pro rata. 1t

would be impossible to operate the
plant in such manner as to make pos
sible the payment of the claims against
the company,
Under the order of the court all IL
ability for claims for the debts of the
company is removed from the heirs of
the late B. F. Windsor. Several minor

tor IS committee amount to more than
$4,000 and these will be collected by
