HADLEY'S STORY.
I'VE were away from Wailuku
just five days, in all" said G.. l..
Hadley when speaking OF the trip,
and our party of sixteen enjoyed
every minute of the time. We left
Kua at eight o'clock OH Thursday,
August %. All the morning we
travelled up the mountain and, at
three-thirty that afternoon we
reached the summit of Haleakala.
Some of the party had guns.
and goat hunting expedition was
at once organized. Too much had
better not be said about the gunners
as, although over forty shots were
fired, not a solitary animal was
killed.
I'VE passed the night in the
shack that graces the summit and it
was not too comfortable. Some previ-
Gus visitors had had fire in the
hut and the fine. white ashes, were
constantly floating through the air,
whenever restless sleeper moved
in his or her blank cts.
THE morning came none too
soon for everybody, and the whole
party was soon ready to watch the
sun rise over the crater's rim. The
scene was beautiful one, but the
effect was somewhat marred by the
absence of clouds. No ocean, of
clouds scene was seen but, all the
same, the glorious sunrise was well
worth seeing.
1--WE fingered long enough to en-
Joy the beauty of the scene and
then began the ride through the
crater to the Kaupo Gap. The
trail was easily found, and we
reached the schoolhouse at Kaupo
in the afternoon.
"We slept at the schoolhouse and
enjoyed the food we took along with
us. All of us arose early Oh Satur-
day morning, and good start was
made for Hamoa. The ride down
the trail was delightful, and the
horses did good work. All of the
animals Jared well. and they were
all on to their job of mountain
climbing.
"We reached ut Hamoa at three
O'Clock in the afternoon, and at
once the bunch made for the sea
shore and had swim. The night
was spent at Hamoa and on sunday
morning Hama was visited.
AT nine o'clock on Sunday
morning we struck George Graves
place at Keanae, and we had the
time of our lives there. Groves was
the soul of hospitality and nothing
was any trouble to him
''The day was spent at the Groves
home and on Monday morning the
party left for Wailuku, via Kailua
The ditch trail provides good goint
nowadays, and we made good time
over the distance. Wailuku wa'

bushels and almost 100000 tons
more than in 1911, the value
of Missouri field crops, owing
to reduced prices, is practically
the same as last year. The one
chance that the Missouri farmer
has to realize increased returns
IRON his grain and forage is to
market it on foot'-to feed it
to live stock.
LIVE STOCK A general
shortage Of live stock is reported
throughout the entire state. Mum
Der OF hogs Of all ages is but
10 per cent of normal, and the
number on feed but &C per cent.
The decrease in numbers is due
largely to losses from cholera.
Few cattle are being fed, owing
in part to the scarity Of hogs.
Cattle on feed represent but 81
per cent of the usual number.
The figures given in this re
port are based on reports from
more than 500 crop reporters Gov
ering the ia counties , Of the
state.

Migsouri Farm Cropg for 191S.


The value Of Missouri farm
products and live stock for the
present year is estimated at
more than three-quarters of a
billion dollars. OF this stupen-
dous sum almost $2OO,0OO,O00 is
represented in the ordinary field
crops alone, according to w. L.
Nelson, assistant secretary Of
the Missouri State Board Of Ag-
riculture.
The year 1912 has been one
characterized by prosperity and
plenty, and while no records in
crop production have been
broken the yields generally have
been good. Favorable harvest
weather made it possible for
farmers to save all crops in the
best Of shape. AT the close of
such a season the Missouri farm
er, his fields filled with fairness
and bins ready to burst, looks
with constant and added pride
upon the old home place. Pity
he gives to the man who, mis-
taking a mirage in the desert
for the promised land, went a.
way to some sun-scorched or
snow-clad country, when he
might have remained in Mis-
souri,.
CORN-The annual crop re-
ro issued today from the Of

of the State Board of Agriculture
shows that the Missouri corn
crop for The year 1912 is approx
imately a quarter Of a billion
bushels 243, 042, 951. This ex-
ceeds the corn crop of 1911 by
more than 50,0O0,OO0 bushels.
The farm value of the crop aver
ages almost one million dollars
to the county, while the CONNER
cial value considerably exceeds
this. The value of the corn
grown in Missouri this year, fig

while Audrain. Carroll, Harrison,
Lafayette, Livingston, Galloway

twelve counties together grew
one-fourth as much corn as the
entire state of Indiana, prac-
%tically the same as either Mich

one-fourth as much as either
Kansas or Nebraska, One-third
as much as the entire state of

wheat in Missouri In many
counties, especially III the North

wheat was winter killed, so that
the acreage harvested was only

harvested from 1,70S, 999 acres,
totaled 81, 546, 726 bushels, worth

Nature generously gave this
greatest of all grasses to Missouri

that the salaries are not princely. but it

Immediately Rev DR. Henry ]. Becker of

Men of brains, education and good rec
Ords are eliminated for no other reason
than shat they are too old
To this Dr. Becker attributed the grad

Roosevelt Charges Plot
to Control the Convention

DENNISON. Ohio. May 21.-Ending the
spectacular campaign which he launched
at Steubenville eight days ago, Theodore
Roosevelt left Ohio yesterday afternoon
with the charge resounding from his lips
that the Taft forces intended to seize con-
troll of the national convention at Chi
cage. Their plan. he said. was to use
their power in the republican national
committee. elected four years ago and
loyal to the President. to make up a
temporary roll of delegates unfriendly to
his interests.
With clenched fists and flushed face, he
declared everywhere he spoke yesterday
that If the politicians attempt to cheat
me I will have a great deal to say /.
No other construction could be placed
upon this utterance than that he intended
70 use measures that in politics are called
desperate.
This thing he has said elsewhere, but
the emphasis lent il yesterday, and the
mention specifically of the republican ma
tional committee. left no doubt that some
thing more radical than the historic
-Walkout'' of the silver delegates at the
republican convention in 1896 is intended.
Mr.. Taft has recently announced on
two or three different occasions" he
said, that what he calls the friends of
constitutional government will control at
Chicago. That means, of course, and can
only mean, that they VIII control the ma
tional committee. The national commit
tees chief function now is to determine
what delegates are originally elected. and
when our opponents talk of the friends of
constitutional government controlling the
convention through that committee all
they mean is that the bosses and their
representatives are to have the say
whether the delegates elected by the ma
jority of the republicans are to be seated
or not
Il serve notice on them that the peo-
pie, the rank and file of the republican
party, will be the masters and not the
servants of the men they have chosen TO
represent them; that we will control. and
our representatives will control the ma
tional convention. and from now on will
control our legislation in state and ma
ton"
At this place yesterday afternoon the
Ohio campaign for supremacy ended, and
Col. Roosevelt started for his home al
oyster Bay to recuperate for the New
Jersey contest, which will open Thursday.
