PROHIBITION AND HAWAII

! EuItOT 11OuUIHiu star fbllIttln,
| Sir: O. A. Steven. in your issue Of
January Goth, says. on the subject Of
Prohibition in Hawaii that prohi-
. bitiOn means the closing down of
mills, Of free nurseries. Of free kinder
Garten8. OF free diSpenSarieS. OF the
! Children : hospital, OF the free home
Tor children, the home for incuraOl"S,
and others. the closing Of hotels. the
driving away OF tourists, and ending
, in stagnatiOn.
Mr.. Steven, fear. takes a some
what too gloomy view of the terrOrs
. which will prevail when once the
freedom and privilege of getting a
! "sCuse on" is taken away from The
inhabitants of Hawaii.
Let him ask any plantation manager
or in fact any employer of labor, both
skilled and unskiled. if it is not a fact
that such labor is far more efficiently
performed by men in sober COndi-
ton than when their heads are mud
Gled by alcohol; ask them the percent
age of days lost by their employees on
account Of Over-indulgenCe in strong
drink.
a commercial firm employing 400 men:
% per cent of the workers lost on an
average five days Il month on account
of drunkenness, and always after pay
day we expected to have to run short
handed, and Mr.. Booze never disap-
pointed as.
Why is it that on all railroads in
the United States today strict temper
ance is compelled? The taking of a
drink by an employe calls for instant
DISMISSAL
Why does our own streetcar line.
the II. r. r. 4 l.. Co., demand that
the flowing bowl?
In his inventory Of dire calamities,
Mr.. Steven fails to enumerate the
closing of our jails. but will inform
him that in the state Of Kansas there
are several counties which have not
a single inmate in their jails, and
these are dry" counties
Interview the criminals who Ian
guish in duranCe vile in our own has
tiles, and don't be astOnished at the
number for whom King Alcohol open
ed the doors.
Mr.. Steven, presume, under prOhi-
bitions intends to let the insane asy-
lum continue business at the same
cd stand. Take a trip there some
Gay, Mr.. Steven, and find out from
tie physician in charge. how many
owe their Incarceration to the influ-
ence of King Alcohol.
AS to the closing of the home for
iHcurables, ask the superintendent
what percentage of the patients in
that institution were brought to their
present sad condition by strong drink.
At the present time nearly one-half
the continental United States are I'M
der prohibition in one form or an
ether.
| would ask Mr.. Steven to name a |
few places where prohibition has clos
ed a hotel, a hospital, a free dispen-
sary or a mill Except whisky mills
or even driven tourists away.
In conclusion | will state that ]
have not been paid for writing this
article by either the Church Fedora |
ton on the Anti-Saloon League, but
will be amply repaid by the thought
that when prohibition does come there
will be less misery, less poverty, less
sickness and disease, less murder and |
suicide, and more better dressed little |
boys and girls with happier faces |
vending their way tO-aye-bettcrI
schools.

kind words to say concerning the long
trip from New York to San Fran
cisco in the Matsonia. If you think
that he was idle during the AZ days

There is surprising amount OF work
to be done to make a new steamer

Market Reports
Yesterdays Gotten Market.

New York, May There was a
dribbling out of long cotton, enough
to cause some downward reaction.
There was not much to the market
either way. There is nothing very
lurid about the weather news. No
body got excited over it at any rate,
The into-sight figures, instead of fall
ing below the total for the same week
last year, as they have for three or
four weeks past, were actually lit
tie larger than last year. Spinners'
takings were not such cheering read
ing for the bull. 1t was too narrow
to move sharply either way Miss
Giles put the increase in acreage to
2.3 per cent. Notices for few hun
dred bales of May were promptly
stopped.

SATURDAY MAY 1914
NEW AIDS TO AGRICULTURE;
CLUBS AND FARM ADVISORS

To arouse the rising generation to
make the most Of the possibilities of
farm life in California, the Univer-
sity of California has organized no
less than eighty agricultural clubs in
the last few months, in high schools
all up and down the state. This has
been done through the work of the
Agricultural Club, made up of stu
dents of the College Of Agriculture OF
the University in cooperation with
Professor B. H. Cocheron, who rep
resents the University and the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
in farm demonstration work in Cali
fornia.
Thousands of young men are being
fired with the competitive spirit in
agriculture through the work of these
clubs. The club members are engag-
ing in competitions to see who can
raise the greatest yield of a particu-
lar crop and get the most profit from
given area of land. The work prom
ises enormous usefulness in acquaint-
ing the public with improved modern
methods of profitable farming.
Just returned from visit to Hum
boldt county, to see how the first
farm advisor work done in California
is prospering, Professor Cocheron is
enthusiastic over the way the peo-
pie of Humboldt county have made
use of this new opportunity. Already
more than fifty demonstration plots
have been started in that county. There
barley, clover, vetch, sugar beets, ca:
rots, rye grass and other crops ara
being grown under improved methods,
as a test and as an example to the
neighborhood.
Everywhere through the region, for
practically the first time in Humboldt
county, the farmers are applying lime
to their soil, to correct it's acidity
and improve its physical condition
Gratifying results are already being
secured from this lining, in increase
of yield.
San Diego and Yolo counties have
now both secured farm advisors from
the University, through agreement to
contribute $4,000 each per annum to-
ward the expenses of the farm ad-
visor, the University appointing the
advisor and supplying his salary. San
Joaquin, MADEIRA, Ventura and Napa
counties will probably be next to re-
ceive farm advisors, for all these coun
ties have organized farm bureaus,
thus pledging the cooperation and
support of the individual farmer: They
have pledged also financial support
from the county treasury.
When the Smith-Lever bill is passed
by Congress a great impetus will be
given to the development of this farm
advisor work in California-a work
Of the greatest possible public useful
ness, since it means that eventually
very agricultural region in the state
will have an expert advisor, scien-.
sifcally and practically trained, whose
whole time will be devoted to going
about among the farmers, advising
hem on their individual problems, and
helping them to bring into actual
daily use the results achieved by the
agricultural colleges and experiment
stations of the country and agricul-
tural experiments throughout the
world

Los Angeles, May 2.-There was an
