SHORTLY

An important decision was arrived
at by directors of the Honolulu Gas
Company this afternoon by which the
eompany's service mains will be ex-
tended Immediately to Waikiki and
probably to the beach.
The directors passed resolution
to lay a main along Kalakaua avenue
before the present paving work is
completed and thus to effect the inn
provement without the necessity of
tearing up paving The main now

intention being to make the extension
along the line of the Rapid Transp

it is now thought best to make the
extension along the full length of
the avenue. (.
If seventy signatures are received

main will certainly be laid, to the
beach and serve the beach residents.

Among officers and men at Schofield

Lieutenants Geiger, Goodier and Bre-
reton arrive from the Coast on the

four biplanes, and with fifteen skilled
mechanics to groom the aerial steeds,
they will proceed direct to Schofield
Barracks. and there establish an avia-
tion camp at some spot yet to be des-
ignated.
1t is believed by kamaainas, how
ever, that the flyers will find trouble
a-plenty when they commence rocket

pronounced Oahu the most difficult
flying country in his experience. He
said that at Leilehua it was almost
impossible to rise with safety except
for a couple of hours in the early

higher air lanes as fairly safe.

ABOUT GOOD SEED CORN.

In probably every section of the corn
belt there are this year those WHO have
had the job of tending and who will
pick little more than Il half of the yield
Of corn that the land ought to have
produced simply because Of careless
ness in securing the supply of seed
ears last fall or carelessness in caring
for them after they were gathered.
There seems to be no getting around
this fact in connection with the seed
corn business-that If the supply OF
seed is gathered before Oct. l. dried
out thoroughly before cold weather
comes on and is stored in a place
where 1t will not gather dampness dur
ing. the winter it is sure to show
strong termination powers. There is
no question about the fact stated. The
bulk Of the trouble that corn growers
have with poor seed is due to trusting
to luck and selecting the seed ears at
husking time or storing them before
they are properly dried or where they
will gather moisture and have the
germ weakened or killed by subse-
quent freezing. These are the A. B.
and c of the seed corn question and
ought not to be difficult for any one to
understand.
