ENORMOUS RAINFALL.
IN HAWAII

The rainfall on the island Of Hawaii
varies greatly, ranging from the enor-
nous downpour of 1853 inches year
in the upper Waipia Valley TO ~
inches on some of the slopes OF Hua-
lalai. The only surface streams on
the island are found along the north
east coast between Hilo and Kohala.
Waipio River, according to the united
States Geological Survey, is the iarg-
est stream on the island and has been
partly developed by irrigation. Al
Kanobo on the east point OF the
island warm water flows from the
seams in the rocks. These warm
springsv flow into a pool about 100
feet long, 25 feet wide, and 20 feet
deep. The pool is entirely surrounded
by rocks and its color varies in SHADE
from a, beautiful blue to violet.
Waiapele, or Green Lake, is a BODY OF
fresh water in the pit OF an old crater
near Kapoho. This lake covers an
area Of about acres and Is fed by
snrings below the surface. A pump
ING plant takes water from this lake
for domestic use and for irrigations.

TO THE PEOPLE OF VERMONT

The schoolhouses Of Vermont have
cost you millions of dollars To whom
do they belong?
To every man, woman and child in
Vermont!
They are now closed four-fifths OF
the time! When are you going to be-
gin to use them?
Is this business proposition? DO
the practical men of Vermont approve
of this waste?
The men of other states do not. All
over the United States legislatures are
opening the school houses, evenings, to
the public.
What for7 What can you do In the
schoolhouses evenings?
Tn the Boston schoolhouses, men and
women have talks on all matters con-
nected with the welfare of their city.
The women learn the care Of children,
domestic economy, sanitation, dress
making, and millinery.
The boys and girls have wholesome
games and amusements. Old ana
young sing, have orchestras, dramatic
clubs, art, athletic, and folk-dancing
clubs.
All debate on the live questions OF
the day; all are learning community
needs, and how to get together to sat
isfy these needs.
Do we want any Of these things in
Vermont? Do we want these chances
less because most Of us live in the
country
We want them more. Why!
Because we have less chance in rural
communities TO see one another.
Because we have less chance TO hear
what is going on in the world.
Because we have less variety OF
amusements,--and trivial distractions
take the place of the upbuilding re-
creation which all need, and which all
could get in the schoolhouses now dark
at sunset.
Light up the schoolhouses and send
cheer and progress into every rural
home The Advance.

CACTUS GROWING
IN LAKELAND

Sir-Since your kind reference to
my cactus plants In, a recent Tele-
gram, the question has arisen, why
not make Lakeland and vicinity the
home of. cactus culture for Florida? ?"
Other localities have their speciali-
ties; let cactus be ours. The i'm
mense value of cactus as forage for
cows, sheep, hogs, chickens, etc. ,
and the tremendous yield of luscious
fruit, per acre, of the fruiting kind,
for our tables and the northern
markets, make it matter sof in
tense interest to Lakelanders that
our section become the chief center
for the growing of this wonderful
creation of the worlds greatest hor-
ticultural genius-Luther Burbank.
Fortunes are being made by
growers in California, and men from
that State have assured me that once
introduced, the general culture Of
forage cactus will change he face
of Florida. For we have the finest
climate in the world for cattle rails
ing, but we lack green feed. The
forage cactus will change the face
plant or feed grown is better for
fattening hogs or cattle and it will
double the milk flow
That cactus plants will thrive
here is evident as they are found
in abundance in their wild state
over all the hill land of our own
and adjoining counties. Then my
own cactus gardens demonstrate the
possibilities of the cultivated kind.
The Florida Grower says it will
easily produce thirty-five tons of
green food to the acre.
In South California 100 and 200
tons have been produced to the
acre. In that State, in South Ari-
IONA, New Mexico and Honolulu,
acres upon acres are being planted
to the forage cactus.
Let the thoughtful reader send at
once to The Luther Burbank Co.
San Francisco, Cal, for their beau
tiful and instructive catalogue on
cactus. Meanwhile, | invite you,
gentle reader, to visit The lakeland
Cactus Gardens on North street, just
west of Swindels dairy, for simon
pure demonstration Missourians
are welcome 1t will be a pleasure
to show the goods that are destined
in the near future to make our
beautiful Lakeland famous.
| have been asked, yes urged, by
influential business men of two
nearby cities, to transfer my plant
to those places, with the promise of
all necessary capialt to make the
culture of the cactus of Statewide
interest.
Every housewife should plant at
once several of the fruiting kind
and in three years the home will be
supplied with an abundance of the
most luscious fruit-fruit said tC
be superior to the banana, that sells
at 25 cents per dozen, and, candied
brings 81 per pound. The fruit
| keeps and ships well.
| am prepared to supply cactus
plants of both the forage and FRUIT
ing varieties, and will superintend
free Of charge, the planting of such
cac,i as are purchased through me
Now is the time for planting; let US
get busy. A word 10 the wise is suf.
