through the medium Of federal troops.
For months Torreon has been virtu.
ally isolated by the rebels, railroads be-

The long siege has resulted in a state
of famine, the inhabitants of the city
suffering severely.
In clash between the rebels and fed.
erals at Nazarena fifty rebels were
killed and twenty captured. This Skin

giving the federal troops access to the

SAN D|EGANS WILL SPEND A MILLION
ON PORT FACILITIES FOR THE CANAL TRADE

San Diego is to the front with an
idea of the changes in commerce which
will follow the opening of the Panama
Canal, very different from that of San
Francisco and, incidentally, much more
encouraging to Hawaii's prospects of
deriving benefit. According to the San
Francisco idea, which is supported by
some people here, but partly contra
dicted by all the official charts, the COM
merce for the Far East will take the
route from the canal to San Francisco
and thence direct to oriental ports with
out calling here, on the basis of the
"shorter great circle route"
The citizens of San Diego figure
things differently, as shown in a map

SUGAR SHIPMENTS TO
DATE $4,000 TONS
Exact Total Shipped on This Date
Last Year-34,OOO Tons
Are Now AfIoat.

BY coincidence the shipments of
sugar from the Hawaiian Islands to the
mainland ports to date are exactly
equal to the shipments for the same Pc
Rod in 1911. A. M. NOVEL;, manager of
the Sugar Factors Company, yesterday
found on comparing his last years sta
tistics with the present seasons, that
10000 tons of sugar represented the
shipments in both seasons. The coin
cidence happens because one 14,000-ton
cargo this summer was not moved, due
to the Gripping at Seattle of the S. s.
Virginian.
The Americana awaiin line is oper-
ating on an eleven-day schedule and is
cutting short the port visits by two to
three days. In case of rough weather
when the steamers are loading they
simply take on less sugar and depart
according to schedule.
$4,000 Tons Afoat.
OF the 1l6, 900 tons so far shipped,
$4,000 tons have reached market and
$4,000 tons is afoat. The Sugar Factors
Company will have 475,o0O tons out of
the total output of the Islands to ship
to Paclhc and Atlantic ports during the
1912 season.
OF the six sailing vessels chartered
to carry sugar around the Horn to
Philadelphia only one, the Erskine M.
Phelps, has sailed with full cargo,
OF the other five, the John Ena is now
at San Francisco and may leave any day
for Hilo direct to pick up cargo. The
bark Nuuanu, according to latest re-
ports, is still at Port Stanley, Falkland
Islands, where she put in in distress.
She is expected to resume her voyage to
Honolulu this month. The bark Foohng
Suey is now out ITO days from New
York for Honolulu and may arrive here
within the next twenty days. The
ships Edward Sewall and William P.
Frye are out 1875 and lis days, respect
lively, from Atlantic ports for San Fran
cisco. They will discharge there and
leave for Honolulu in ballast to get
sugar cargoes.

estimate can be as much as twenty five

may vary from four pounds--the aver
age-down to three pounds.
Other companies are looking forward
to good season and the pack win be
far above last years output. After
this seasons pines are taken off, the
pine lands now included in the Leile-
hua military reservation, will be with
drawn from cultivation, but the COM
pany is developing additional acreage
in another section and this will offset
the loss.

THE FARMERS OCCUPATION, PRO
AND CON.

AND CON.
Farmers of New England are some
times inclined to believe that their lot IN
life is hard; but the evidences to the
contrary are so numerous that it will
perhaps be profitable to give few OF
them, as presented by Albert w. Fulton
in a public address at Springfield, Mass,
the other evening After declaring that
New England is coming to its own in
the matter of agriculture, Mr. Fulton
declared: Zone great advantage that
the New England farmer has is that it
does not require as much capital to work
farm here as it does in the West.
Then, again, the nearness to the best
markets is something that cannot be
repeated too often as an advantage.
There is an unlimited demand for every
thing the New England farmer raises.
The New England farms cannot raise
enough for the consumption of New Eng
land people. The results that are OBJ
tanned faom farm work in New England,
in contrast to the same work in other
parts of the country is most encourag-
ing. Iowa, the great corn state, aver
ages 80 bushels of corn to the acre. The
average for the United States is only 25
bushels. The average for Vermont is
4 bushels"
However ii is only fair to state that
there is another side to the picture, as
there is to most occupations, and this
was also presented by Mr. Fulton in the
following: "a number of disadvantages
that the New England farmer has to
meet were outlined. Poor soil requires
expensive fertilizer. Farm labor is
scarce and has to be paid high The
farm helper has a strong inclination to
sit in the parlor in his stocking feet and
smoke the boss cigars. Farmers are
suspicious of each other and are not
ready to cooperate. A dollar looks big
to farmer when it comes to investing
III III MS IdTlU. lie bIlus ullSHts lIS
chance to make larger profits. The Sher-
man antitrust law has hit the farmers
in some instances For example, the
farmers who have been shipping milk 10
Boston are now being held up on the
ground that they are combined in viola
ton of that law. Freight rates are high
for the farmer. Transportation in some
parts of this section of the country is
by no means perfect. An attempt has
been made to get the railroads to re-
duce the rates charged for carrying fer
tilizers This move is being supported
by those who think it wise for the rail
roads to encourage the farmers to help
themselves. The railroads would get
return in the greatly increased amount
OF farm products that would result"
Apparently there are several of the
above disadvantages which might be
remedied without great trouble, as they
are dependent entirely on the farmer
himself and his attitude toward his occI-
patton; so that the balance is rather in
favor of the man who engages in agri.
culture. And Mr.. Fultons presentation
of the conditions, as briefly outlined
should prove of value to this end.
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1912-04-27

If any attempt is made to present the
Titanic disaster in moving pictures, the
general public ought to have sense
enough to know that such a reproduction
would be mere guesswork and, therefore
entirely unreliable. But aside from that
consideration, such tremendous misfof-
tune should not be commercalized to the
profit of few people, or even to the
many.
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1912-04-27

The turn of public sentiment some
what toward Mr.. lsmay and his crew OF
the Titanic is indicated no more surely
than in the snippishness of some OF the
ships officers on the stand in the Wash
ington inquiry; they are feeling surer
OF their ground, with public sentiment
not so strongly outraged by the enorml-
~ of the disaster.
