HH0 IS NOT in
Line FOR Y.M.C.A.
At THE PRESENT

Paul Super, general secretary OF
the Honolulu Young Mems Christian
Association. has been planning to 90
to Hilo next Thursday TO organize an
association in the Crescent City, but,
according to a statement made by
him this morning, ii looks as II the
proposition, which was given no lit
tie publicity when first introduced
about. two weeks ago, VIII fall
through.
Mr. Super said that letter which
he received from Hilo yesterday gives
evidence that the ardor of the resi-
dents OF that city is growing cool.
Finances, he says, seems to be the
obstacle.
Il am disappointed to think that
the Hilo men have let their former
interest in the matter lull," he said.
NO doubt ii is true that the present
would not be an suspicious time to
raise funds for such a project, still
there is much an association could
do with comparatively little equip
ment. The Hilo men have but to es-
tablish an association to realize its
great value in the community.

age plan, and he did for while. He
said he was against it on principle
that it would be starting a precedent
that would be followed by business
firms over the territory, and that the
wage scale was low enough at pres
ent. However, he changed his views
before the meeting was over, the ma
jorfty standing firm for the percent
age plan. which went through as out
lined in the Star-Bulletin yesterday.
The budget carrying the 10 per cent
cuts passed second reading without
objection. All the supervisors with
the exception of Hardesty were pres

nicatfens be sent by the clerk to all
department heads, notifying them OF
the changes made in appropriations
and advising them to regulate their
salaries accordingly. The next meet
ing of the board was set for Thurs
day, April 2, at which time the mat
ter of the transfer of the water and
sewer systems will be taken up.

Ida Grove. Novfl. 1.-THE popcorn
harvest in western Iowa Is now at its
height and the yield this year is very
heavy and quality fine. Elevators here
and at Arthur and Odebolt get the bulk
Of the corn. more Of 1t being stored at
Arthur than elsewhere. In four days
the Farmers Elevator Company there
took in 100000 pounds and the Shot
we'll elevator took in at the same time.
1.11S,000 pounds. It Is a common thing
during this season for the dealers at
Arthur to take in 100 loads of popcorn
in one day and continue buying 1t at
the same rate for days at time. Prac-
tically all of the popcorn raised in
Iowa was sold by the farmers under
contract and dealers will not take any
corn that Is not contracted for. The
most Of the corn was bought at $1.10
per hundred pounds on the cob. Some
OF that which is being delivered now
Is shipped at once, twenty car loads
having gone from Ida Grove the past
week and much more will be shipped
before the season ends.
Most of the farmers engaged in rails
ing popcorn find 1t profitable. The
Game Brothers, who have farm near
Odebolt, raised fifty acres Of popcorn
this year, producing over 5000 bushels,
realizing between $40 and $50 an acre
from their crop. John H. Gosch, who
has farm near Lake City, produced
corn that yielded 1900 pounds to the
acre. These are but samples among
scores Of farmers who have been max
ing the production of popcorn a spe-
cialty.
