DEFENSE PLANS
INTEREST OFFICERS

The exclusive announcement of the
CLANS of the MacomD army board for
the further fertilization of the Island
of Oahu, presented in The Advertiser .
yesterday from an advance report fur
nished from Washington, caused deep
interest in Army circles, particularly
that portion of the report which recon-
mends that Fort Shafter be made the
principal garrison post here. The re-
port contained mass of information
which was interesting to all branches
of the service. The printed report was
furnished by The Advertiser to army
headquarters here and was given close
perusal by the officers, including GEN
eral Macomb.
Second Is Pleased.
eve are mighty glad that Fort Shat
ter is to be made the biggest garrison
in the Islands, said Second Infantry
officer. tIt means that the post area
will prabably be greatly enlarged by
the addition of other lands, and there
will probably be some important work
in filing in the small valley which now
divides n portion of the reservation.
With this covered and leveled there
will be n splendid reservation which
will enable the department to spread
out the post and maintain it largely as
a compact whole.

General Macomb, Chieffof Staff Conk-

ARKANSAS MINERALS RICH

Development S All That Is Needed to
Make 1t Take High Rank as
Great Producer.

Iellvile, Ark, D-c. III. r. Dun
op of the United States geological sur
vey has returned from a trip over the
north Arkansas mining district and
has reached the conclusion that
Arkansas is rich in mineral wealth
and only lacks development to make
1t a great producer.
Its principal minerals he said.
lead, zinc, bauXite and coal. are al
ways in demand, and always will be
at a constantly increasing price as
the years go by.
There are many things that would
promote the development OF the min
eral resources of Arkansas more
speedily if they were taken up and
acted upon. More liberal leasing of
ore-bearing ground to operators by
the land owners on reasonable terms
would be one of the greatest helps to
mineral development in the state that
could mention.
In the matter of leasing on a roy
atty, | believe graded royalty would
be the best plan. 1t would practically
INSURE Stedu9 operation OF all leaSeS.
The ore market fluctuates. At times
many properties cannot work on the
price of ore current, because ii is too
low and also pay the royalty exacted
by the land owner.
"A state assay office would also be
a great help in mineral development.
Such an office could be maintained
for $4,000 or $4,000 a year. In fact.

that on previous occasions when he
had discussed the question with the
president he had found his mind open
and receptive to information.
Though bills have been drafted by
members of congress looking to gov
ernment ownership, none has been
agreed upon as an administrative
measure, while the result of Burle-
sons investigations are being awaited
There is no doubt said Burleson,
that the inauguration of the parcel

that the Turkish crop Is practically
monopolized by a French syndicate.
For the larger part the culture OF
Turkish tobacco in California has

BY HARRY ASHTON.

DlNUBA, Cal. April lS.--It looks
now as II the high-class cigaret of the
future will be advertised as a product
OF California, instead OF Turkey. In
the last four years the aromatic tiny
leaved tobacco formerly grown ex-
clusively In Turkey has been domes
ticated in this state Starting in 1909
with a few small experimental plan
tations on subdivided ranches, the
crop has grown rapidly to one OF 1907
900 pounds in 1912 The first crop
was 1000 pounds altogether but last
season halfdozen individual ranches
PRODUCED that much separately This
year 1000 acres are being planted,
more than three times as much as in
1912. The industry Is now considered
as firmly established, although the
product is as yet largely inferior to
that which Is imported Still the
quantity of the California type OF
Turkish tobacco is SO encouraging
that good farming is relied upon TO
develop II into something equally
good, il not better than the article
from abroad.
California is the only place In the
United States where the climatic con
ditions are believed to be completely
adapted To the growth of this crop
Therefore California, and particularly
the upper San Joaquin valley, was
chosen as the scene for the expert
ment under the auspices OF sthe Lig'
gett q Meyers Tobacco Co. AT the

and ranchers within 40 or 90 miles

ture OF the weed with the practice
at this farm as an example. Last

dispelled. some growers made good
money at it, G. Christopher OF Fres-
no produced $500 pounds which sold
at 60 cents. the top price OF the year.

900 pounds at an average OF 90 cents.
Y. Spencian OF lettem was the largest
grower. he controlling "A acres from
which 10000 pounds were harvested,
and which sold at from 40 10 90 cents.
The smallest crop was 100 pounds
which was grown in back yard. The
low price OF the season was 20 cents
a pound. while some tobacco was en-
tirely rejected as unfit A few In
dividuals were not entirely satisfied
with the prices received. This, the
buyers assert, is due TO the low quail
ity OF the tobacco produced. The
Turkish type OF tobacco Is essentially
havoring tobacco and must be ex-
ceedingly delicate in aroma to meet
requirements. Some imported Turk
ish tobacco preserved AT the Dinuba
chamber OF commerce as a sample OF
what Is desired, has distinct
superiority III odor to some OF that
grown here. The promoters Of the
enterprise assure growers that the
difference in grade is exclusively
cultural, and that II can be wiped out
by implicitly following printed direc-
tons A booklet containing these has
Just been issued for growers through
the John Bollman Co, of San Fran
cisco. whose manager. l.. NJ. Gillian,
Is supervising the introduction OF this
tobacco.
Several reasons are responsible for
the determined effort to grow Turk
ish types Of tobacco in this country.

The restoration OF the snake TO the
