GOOD REPORTS FROM
WATERH0tJSE RUBBER
ESTATES LAST MONTH

Favorable news has been received
by the Waterhouse Co, Ltd, regard
iEg It's rubber estates in the Malay
States, in a letter from Singapore
cabled from Manila In September the
ranjong Olok plantation yielded Is,
700 pounds of rubber, bringing the
production to the end of that month
up to HAAS pounds, compared with
10000 pounds for the first nine
months OF last year Pahang in Sep
TENDER yielded 1860 pounds, making
13S,670 pounds to the end of that
month, against 5000 pounds for the
corresponding period last year. That
OF Tanjong oIok is the largest yield
fer any month since the plantation
started.
On October Is prices in Singapore
jumped Z cents to ~ cents, yet Fred
f P. Waterhouse says their contract
for SO cents to October 81 had proved
advantageous, as it enabled them to
sell their product since the war de-
preston began at about the ruling
market price. Both plantations have
kept going at a slight margin above
cost.

SOLDIERS FACE
DEATH IN OCEAN
near HALEIWA

IL "
I Especial Star bulletin Correspondence
/ SCHoFIELD BARRACKS. Oct. 20,
Last Thursday the beach two miles
east of the Haleiwa hotel was the
scene Of a dangerous and daring res
cue which has resulted in three mem
bers OF the LIST Infantry being recon.
/ mended for certificate or merit.
These men are Private Lewis NJ. Mill.
er, Co, NJ, and Private James J. Dicks,
Co K, and one other soldier whose
identity several investigations have
failed TO disclose. ...,. -.
A large number Of soldiers were in
! bathing and romping in the surf. The
| breakers were rolling in strong and
! high, and few dared TO go more than
; few feet from shore. Private Charles
! l. Armstrong of Co. !, LIST Infantry, a
very strong swimmer, fought his way
out about rs yards, and found that he
vas unable to get back His calls for
help brought hundreds TO the shore
Z who saw Armstrong; efforts become
weaker and weaker, and finally it was
seldom that he came to the surface
though his body could be seen under
the clear water in the wake of every
breaker. ~ ..
Two men with powerful strokes
swan out to his rescue. One was Pri.
yate James j. Dicks, but who the
other was no one has yet been able TO
find out II a swimmer as famed as
Armstrong could not fight his way
back to shore, what chance had they?
They reached Armstrong and together
brought him to the surface and held
him there for what seemed an inter-
minable period, with heavy waves
breaking over them every few sec.
onds. =.
In the meantime others on shore
were tying tent ropes together and
Private Lewis NJ. Miller, with one end
tied to his wrist, was ma.1.ng his way
out to his three comrades who were
now over a hundred yards from shore.
Soon the rope got so heavy that Miller
was unable to make further Roadway,
SO that others had to swim out and
station themselves at intervals along
the rope to keep il from dragging Mill
.er under
Slowly but surely Miller made prog
ress toward the three helpless men,,
and reached them none too soon. for
Dicks and the unknown hero were all
but exhausted.
The progress back to shore was
even slower than the rope had been in
going out, for the slightest pull
seemed to submerge those at the out
err end of the line. BY this time there
were a great many on the rope, and
men took turns in holding Armstrong
and his two exhausted rescuers on the
surface. The rescue took a little over
twenty three minutes.
According to Armstrong; statement
he tried to ride in on the breakers
but the nndertow was so strong that
he was carried out further than he
could swim in. AS Armstrong told the
Star Bulletin correspondent while do
ing guard duty two nights, later, If
Dicks and that other fellow hadn't
reached me just when tahey did l
wouldn't be a sentinel this evening.

THE STORY TELLER.

Some men are born story tellers,
some achieve the story telling faculty,
while others-who constitute the great
majority-can only sit in amazement
and listen to the man who can glibly
reel them off. one after another as if
they were all new, fresh and original.
You can recognize good story by the
number of times you meet it, for the
good story is picked up and repeated,
interchanged, enlarged, improvised and
spread, until it is liable to reappear, as
natural, or in disguise, at the four cor
ners of the earth, and at widely sepa-
rated periods of time That's what
makes the modern story teller such
delight, because until he finishes you
can not know whether you are about to
meet an old friend or be initiated into
novel mysteries. But every year an
other crop of listeners grows to ma
turity for whom the old ones are al
ways new, and who, in consequence.
must be the perpetual inspiration of
the story teller.

SOUL HAS WEIGHT.

DR.. Duncan McDougall of Haverhill
Mass, says he has found the weight
of the soul of dying man.
My first subject was man dying OF
tuberculosis" he said. ut seemed to
me best to select patient dying with
a disease that produces exhaustion, the
death occurring with little or no mus.
cular movement, because in such a
case the beam could be kept perfectly
at balance and any loss occurring
readily noted
THE patient was under observation
for three hours and forty minutes be-
fore death, lying on bed arranged on
a light framework built upon very deli.
Icately balanced platform beam scales.
"The patients comfort was looked
after in every way, although he was
practically moribund when placed upon
the bed. He lost weight slowly at the
rate OF one ounce per hour, due to
evaporation of moisture in respiration
and evaporation of sweat.
During all three hours and forty
minutes kept the beam end slightly
above balance near the upper limiting
bar in order to make the test more de
cisive if it should come.
cat the end of the three hours and
forty minutes he expired, and sudden
ly, coincident with death, the beam
end dropped with an audible stroke,
hitting against the lower limiting bar
and remaining there with no rebound.
"The loss was ascertained to be
three-fourths of an ounce.
"This loss of weight could not be
due to evaporation of respiratory mois.
ture and sweat because that had al.
ready been determined to go on, in his
case, at the rate of one-sixtieth of all
ounce per minute, whereas this loss
was sudden and rge-three-fourths
OF an ounce in a few seconds"

BUY MARES INSTEAD OF MULES.

| N. Y. Gulley, in Progressive Farmer:
Occasionally | see articles in papers
advising people to put their money into
stallians, as the most economical and
speedy way to raise horses of greater
value, and to raise colts from the
mares we have. ! do not wish to dis
agree with or dissent from this recon-
mendation. The pure-bred sire is in
dispensable. In my own limited ex.
perience have found that colts are al.
ways very much like theirs dams in
conformation, action and disposition.
have had IA colts from 10 different
mares, only one of which is registered;
others, grades and nondescripts. There
are 10 different sires represented;
three German coach, three standard,
two Percheron and two unknown.
About half of these stations were reg
istered, others very high grades.
Every one of these colts without
single exception has been almost ex-
actly like their dams in form, action
and disposition. There has been more
variation in color than in any other
particular. A white dam and bay sire
produced a sorrel colt. A pair of black
mares by light bay stallion raised
dark bay colts. A colt from a blind
mare has good eyes at Is years of age,
another from mare with good eyes is
blind at four years. The offspring of
the honest, true pullers, when harness
is first put on them and they are told
to go, move right off without trouble,
those from bakers never will press
the collar hard.
The generally conceded superiority
of the mule over the hinny seems to
suggest the same thing.
1t seems to me that the wisest thing
to do to get proper farm teams is to
buy the best mares you can get instead
of mules. would rather have a pair
OF Percheron mares weighing 5000
pounds or over, if sound and all right
for farm team, than any pair of mules
that ever wore harness. If you have
mares of that type, whether you raise
horses or mules, when mated to good
sires, you will obtain good results.

GENERAL APPROPRIATION BILL

The general appropriation bill, car
rying appropriations for the next two
years for all purposes of about $11,-
$4,000 compared with about $S,25O,000
two years ago, was reported to the
House Wednesday,
The tax on the general fund provid-
ed by the bill amounts to $3,973,OO0.
which is $4,000 in excess of the esti-
mated revenue for the two years SO
far as the general fund is concerned
the increase in the aggregate appro-
priations provided by the new bill over
that of 1912 is about 100000.
The heavy increases come from the
other funds, which are self-supporting,
such as the schools, engineer and pen.
itentiary funds.
The committee provided first for the
insane asylums at Jackson and Pine
vile, the wants of other state institu-
tons being subordinated. Substantial
increases in maintenance funds and
provisions for new buildings were made
at both of the insane hospitals.
The Louisiana State University got
no increases and no provision was
made for new buildings.
The support of state penitentiary in
creased from 100000 to 100000 a
year, to come out of the penitentiary
revenues; Indebtedness, 100000 au-
thorized; 100000 a year for the pur-
chase of lands and $4,000 a year for
payment on loans and funded indebt-
edness and interest.

BOYS CHARACTER HIDDEN IN
POCKETS.

The contents of boys pockets are
a pretty good indication of the boys
character, and any mother who studies
them carefully will find food for
thought in plenty.
The boy who loves nature will fill
his pockets with pebbles, shells, bark
OF trees, bugs, worms; in short, with
anything that he desires to study. One
boy OF my acquaintance, says Virginia
Baker in the Mothers Magazine, went
to school with couple of snakes III
his pocket, but to his great sorrow the
reptiles shared the fate of Mary's lamb.
The boy with mechanical turn of
mind will be pretty apt to treasure in
his pockets good sharp knife, six
inch rule, pencil and some bits of
wood, wire and twine. He will also
be apt to have half dozen queer con-
triVances, the result of his inventive
genius.
The idle, thoughtless boy will put
anything and everything into his peck
cts, without regard for rhyme or rea.
SON." Articles, wholly worthless, will
predominate~
The degenerate, and the boy who has
fallen into bad company, will treasure
cigar stubs, cigarettes and matches,
broken pipes, tobacco, bad pictures,
and bad literature Oh, mother, il you
suspect your boy of evil, search his
pockets, for they will reveal the truth.

BOTH HAVE CAUSE.

The late George Alfred Townsend
-"Gath," the prolific journalist-was
lunching in New York one day when a
novelist of the realist-pessimist school
began to growl about marriage.
Gulping his beer and boiling his
boiled beef and cabbage, the novelist
in long harangue, proved conclusive
ly that marriage was a failure
When he had finished, Gath" gazed
at him mildly and said:
Il tell you what it is, Ed-when a
man thinks marriage is a failure, it's
pretty blamed certain that his wife
thinks so, too"

WILL WOMEN EVER REBEL
AGAINST FASHION?

Miss Grace Hutchinson, costume de.
signer of Columbia University, says
the morals of woman are read in her
gowns and that slovenly dress indi-
Gates her mental traits; that the
woman who is addicted to extreme
styles is sure to be an extremist in
everything else. But she adds, she
does not believe that every woman
who wears immoral clothes is neces.
sarily immoral. She rather believes a
large per cent of them recklessly fol-
low prevailing fashions without know
ing why.
AS the fashions are to-day, woman
would have to design nearly everything
for herself if she would not wear i'm
moral clothes. The reason is plain
enough:
Fashion, especially French fashions,
are not designed for good women. They
will not spend enough money to suit
the merchants. That is the reason
that every new feature is designed
originally for the demi-monde of Paris.
Throughout Europe, the women of
high nobility and social position are
like wrens compared with the cocka-
toos of the half world. It is an un-
pleasant thought that it is the latter
who set the standard which our fash.
ionable women follow with naive
avidity.

NEW IMPETUS FOR TICK
ERADICATION.
s-Picayune:

Tlmes-Picayune:
The vigorous tick-eradication cam
paign launched in Southwest Louisi-
ana last week, under the auspices of
the Southwest Louisiana Development
League, is very cheering Sign of the
times Though Federal and State
farming experts and experienced cat
tle-growers from other sections have
been urging the development of Louis
iana's cattle industry for many months,
the movement against the cattle tick
has made less Roadway here than in
some of the commonwealth nearby
Madison is the only parish officially
recognized as tick-free and relieved of
the Federal quarantine, whereas near
ly half of Mississippi is rid of the pest
and Tennessee is entirely clear of
quarantine. Voluntary tests conducted
by individual farmers in number of
parishes have prepared the way for a
statewide campaign, however, and Lou
isiana still has chance to beat Mis-
sissippi to second place in the list of
tick-freed Southern States. The pro-
gressive Mississippi farmers are handi-
capped by vigorous opposition to cat.
tle-dipping in several counties and a
recent outbreak of lawlessness in one
or two. 1t is earnestly to be hoped
that the campaign will meet no such
hindrance here.
