its value by cutting down on the oats
and adding little oil meal The size
known as the pea size should be fed
to horses.
After the colt has become accus-
toned to the halter it is a good plan
to break him to work. Whenever
there is any light work to do, such as
hauling fodder, put the colt In and
work him instead of the old mare. for
the rest will do her good and the work
will help the colt. 1t will give him
exercise and accustom him to being
handled, but best of all 1t will tougher
up his shoulders and muscles and
when oat sowing time comes he will
be in good condition and able to pull
his share right along with the old
horse.
When the colt comes in at night
leave the collar on for while for this
will help keep down puffs. After the
collar is removed wash his shoulders
thoroughly with cold salt water This
is cooling to the skin and removes the
sweat and dust and also toushens his
shoulders.
If these precautions are observed
and ii the collar is properly fitted then
there Is very little danger OF injurinE

might include the soft maple, green
ash, box elder, cottonwood, Russian OIL
i've, and catalpa. The catalpa is rec
commended because as the windbreak
becomes too dense these trees can
gradually be cut and used for posts
The Russian olive is hardy, low
growing tree, and is recommended for
planting on the windward side of
evergreens. The first four trees named
above are planted primarily on ac-
count of being rapid growers. The
cottonwood is fairly common in this
state, and although 1t does not form a
dense windbreak when planted in pure
stands, yet it has the advantage of
producing fairly good lumber for ordi-
nary farm purposes. Care is neces-
sary however, in seasoning to pre-
vent warping.
In locating the windbreak one
should not make the mistake O. put
ting it too close to the house. About
five rods is about right. If set closer
than this. the snow is apt to pile or
drift in just between the windbreak
and the house, the windbreak In this
case forming snow trap" This is
of course to be avoided.
In setting the trees, II they are to
be placed in rows, the rows should
be from six to ten feet apart and
the trees placed about six feet apart
in the rows. This will allow plenty
of room for good cultivation the first
few years. For this purpose an or
binary corn cultivator may be used
with good success.
If deciduous trees are to be plant
ed, one may either buy them from a
nursery or get them out of the native
timber With evergreens. however, it
is much better to buy about three
yearold seedlings from a nursery
l.man. These trees have the advantage
of having been transplanted, which
|, gives them much better root system,
Evergreens must be handled with a
/ great deal more care than is necessary
4 with deciduous trees. Never allow the
! roots of the evergreen to be exposed
! even for a short time in the sun and
! air. il you expect the tree to live after
planting. The best time for planting
/ such trees is in April or May, Just
as they begin their spring growth.

RECRUIT DEPOT
ON OAHU PLAN
OF VAR HEADS
Must Garry Extra Men for 25th
Infantry as Recruits Until
Vacancies Occur

A recruit depot of the army is to
be established on Oahu. This informa-
ton comes in recent official communi-
cations to the Hawaiian department,
and the action is the outcome of a
peculiar situation which developed
here in regard to the 18th infantry.
With the draft of recruits expected
on the Thomas the 18th of this month,
the 25th infantry would have been
over its legal maximum strength of
$50 men per company. The law as to
maximum strength is uncompromising,
and to get around 1t 1t became neces-
sary to designate Schofield Barracks
as one of the regular recruit depots
of the army. The new men will be
carried on the rolls as recruits, and
as soon as vacancies in the compa-
MES occur by discharges, the extra
men VIII be taken up.
Besides the eoIored soldiers. the
Thomas will bring a large draft of
recruits for the 1st and I'd regiments
of the infantry, the last-nanied organi-
zation getting the majority, as it has
not been strengthened for some time,

Delegate Kuhio. after conferences
with government officials In Washing

to have the Mahuka site owners waive
the interest on the condemnation
awards made in the settlement of the
federal building suits
This and other points Of vital inter-
est in Honelulu's long effort to secure
a new federal building were brought
out at meeting of the Honolulu Ad
Club at luncheon in the Young hotel
today. At the same time comes the
first definite information as to the
exact status Of the Mahuka site.
In letter from Delegate Kalanian-
aole to w r. Harrington, president Of
the Merchants Association and of the

ment is clearly set forth. The letter
came to the Merchants Association

Gentlemen
In answer to your letter received

ing to your organization:

In explaining the situation more
fully, would state that 1t is the desire
of the committee on public buildings
to take up matters of emergency, and
for that reason they want report
from the treasury department before
considering any measure before their
committee. As the treasury depart
ment is awaiting action by the depart
ment of justice with regard to having
the owners waive interest, and as this
matter is still pending, the treasury
department can not make its report
So that you can readily see that the
interest matter is holding up consid-
Grafton of the federal building.
Inquiry at the department OF JUS
tice elected the information that the
matter was in the hands of their agent,
the district attorney. As yet, no word
has been received regarding what ac-
tion the owners will take.
The appropriation for the site
amounts to 100000. The cost of the
first site, $1O4.531.29 plus the condem-
ration awards amounting to $780,
