DR.. WILCOX WOULD
STANDARDIZE CASES
FOR MARKET PURPOSES

The q. S. experiment station,
through DR.. E. V.NWiIcox, director in
charge, has in preparation bulletin
which promises to be Of much value to
agriculturists in the islands as well as
TO the community generally. The pub
LEGATION deals with the matter of pack
ing and shipping produce of various
kinds for the local markets and is ex-
pected to form the basis for stand
ardization in these matters.
At the present time there is an al
most absolute lack of uniformity in
the preparing of various farm and
garden products for sale, and much
consequent confusion in selling. Eggs
for instance. are coming in to the
Territorial Marketing Division in box
es, baskets. crates of different sizes,
and packed in sawdust, bran, paper
and other materials Vegetables come
in bulk, crates, in punches. and va
rious other ways. After the bulletin
in question is issued things will be
standardized in all these lines, in so
far as the marketing division is con-
cerned, and producers will be required
to conform with the standards estab-
lished, in order to realize the best
returns from their produce.

DRUNKEN PIG MAKES FINE
FILIPINO LUAU BUT THE
FEASTERS LAND IN JAIL

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
HlLO, Mar 8.-If Bret :Iarte mad
keen familiar with the tactics of a
band OF Filipino thieves near Pepee.
keo, 1t is possible that ms would have
philosophical about the wiles OF the
little brown brothers" INSTEAD of
Cinnamon, think the hea.s of the
local police department.
This theory is advanced following
the discovery that the Filipinos know
a method to keep pig from squeal-
ing while. being stolen.
Some Spanish neighbors of the local
Filipinos owned a pig which was near
ing a luau-fatness. Knowing that their
Spanish neighbors were light sleep
ers. the Filipinos despaired of making
away with the porker until one solv.
ed the problem by deciding to dope
the pig with "dago red" This deci-
sion reached, it was comparatively
simple matter, they frankly admit, as
one of them volunteered 70 rob a
nearby saloon and get the VINE.
Securing the LIQUOR they proceeded
to pour it into the feed trough of the
pig until IL had acquired royal Sleep
ing jag, then they picked it up and
carried it to the sea beach, where
the whole Filipino camp, or pretty
nearly all of it, had whatever the res
Idents of the Philippines call a luau.
But they also proceeded to drink up
the balance of the wet goods stolen
from the saloon and a number of
them got drunk as well as the pig.
This led to their arrest and three OF
them were given three months sen.
tence in jail for larceny and one is.
to be held on trial for burglary.
The rest have been warned against
feeding booze to pigs and the pigs to
themselves, when they do not own,
either the booze or the pigs.

MENSLEAGUEIS
Urged TO FIGHT
White PLAGUE

In a stirring address before the
members OF the mems league Of st.
Andrews cathedral last evening, DR..
A. y. Sinclair, superintendent of the
Anti-Tuberculosis League of Hawaii,
urged that organizations all over the
territory cast their lot with the league
in the endeavor to stamp out the white
plague and lend their cooperation in
the fight now being carried on against
ii.
In the beginning. Doctor Sinclair
clearly outlined the disease and its
detection, as well as methods of treat
ing it. In connection with this he ex-
planned the methods being used in the
present fight against the disease, IL
Illustrating his remarks wit num-
Der of the slides from the tuberculosis
exhibit In part, he said;
THE loss of the Titanic, with 1900
persons lives sacrificed made the
world stand aghast with horror. yet
such a disaster does not occur once
in a decade while every day in the
year more than twice as many die of
consumption and We are not even told
about il. H. PR
"All over the world people are bat
ting tuberculosis and the greatest
weapon in the fight is awakening the
public to the facts | have outlined.
But there must be some members of
the community who do more than
awaken. They must act. You have an
organization here that can adopt for
its purpose the awakening Of others.
You can save human lives by the thou
sands. That is no exaggeration when
the number of cases one person can
infect by a chain Of victims is con-
sidered. You can do this great work
by making it your duty to carry out
the ideas you have listened to tonight.
If you are instrumental in sending
enc case to the sanitar:un or are re-
sponsible for the detection of one
early case. you will have done great
work in the suppression of tubercu-
losis."

TO SEEK TRADE
With PACIFIC
!. +. COAST

With the beginning OF the new
year, the Rickmers Line. of Bremen
ipaugurated its new service 20 the
Far East Fifty years ago, the Rick
mers Line had already extended its
operations to the East, especially by
means of its own trade in rice. Some
90 years ago. however, its shipping
business to the Far East was trans.
ferred to the Hamburg line,
the Rickmers line limiting its services
to the Oriental and Levantine ports.
Later on, il extended its operations
to Eastern Siberia, thus establishing
again a connection with the Far East,
and it is to be expected no doubt that
now this connection will be still fur,
Their developed. The recent increase
of its capital by 100000 marks may
serve as an indication in this respect.
The Rickmers line viii build in its
own yards six steamers, each of 5000
tons carrying capacity, some of which
are to be ready by the end of 1914.
In addition, 1t is intended to buy from
other lines six or eight steamers of
from 5000 to 10000 tons carrying ca
pdCllg. II Is SIdIeu III TINS COHuSCllOu,
however, that before proceeding with
negotiations the further development
of the position Of the shipping market
is to be awaited. ~
The company owns at present IA
steamers of from $500 to 500 tons,
including new constructions its total
available tonnage will amount to
10000 tons in round figures. The av-
erage age of the vessels does not ex-
coed three years and nine months.
The company is thus in position to
play an important part, in the ship
ping to the Far East. AS already
mentioned, this new service was
started in January 1t will be fort
nightly one, alternating to the yari-
Gus ports of China and Japan from
Hamburg, Antwerp, Liverpool. Glas-
cow and Middesborough. As regards
the line to Eastern Siberia, the Rick
mers line will meet with new COM
petitor. since the Hamburg-American
line, having receded from the so-calied
East Siberian conference, intends to
increase the number Of it's trips to
that region from the beginning of the
new year.
