sanitation without giving some con-
sideration to hog cholera. The
writer has seen this great burden of
the swine industry absolutely con
trolled on individual farms by the
intelligent use of sanitary measures.
The killing of all sick animals and
their Disposal by burning, together
with liberal use of air slaked lime,
the most efficient and inexpensive
disinfectant to be purchased, will
do much to alleviate the financial
loss which is beng incurred year
after year by supposedly intelligent
breeders. 1t has been said that if
the American farmer would evince
as much enthusiasm over methods
of cleanliness before he gets into
trouble as he does over fake cures
after the trouble has arrived, the
financial condition of rural COM
munities would be several years in
advance of it's present stage, and
as a result of this increased pros
perity better schools and better
! roads could be had in rural dis
tricts.
In a discussion of this nature one
must not overlook the greatest fac
tor which is Involved in all under
takings of a community nature-co-
operation. The success of any at
tempt to control diseases of live
stock by sanitary or other methods
is jeopardized by lack of coopera-
ton Of the inhabitants of that COM
munity. AS an example Of the great
results to be obtained, one county
in another State in which an or
ganization of the farmers was per-
fected may be cited to advantage
During the season of 1913, 5000
hogs were lost by the farmers from
hog cholera. In the beginning Of
the 1914 season a concerted effort
was made by the State Experiment
Station to organize that county in
to perfect unit to night hog cholera.
With the application of sanitary
measures and the judicious use of
anti-hog cholera serum alone-no
virus being allowed in the district
the loss Of swine from all causes
during the 1914 season was held
down to 600 head. Community or
ganization will do more for the
farmer than any other agent that
can be employed. On application to
the Director Of the Experiment Sta
ton anti-hog cholera clubs or san
itation clubs will be organized.

Possibly we, too, are twisting the
tail of the Golden Rule when we
publish this article, for we are tell
ing others of their faults when we
have many of our own--which we
too often forget.
And yet we repeat, the Golden
Rule is GOOD rule.
We may not walk steadfastly in
accordance with its teachings, but
we may at least practice a portion
IF that which we preach. We may
It least practice portion of that
which we preach. We may accord
0 others slight degree of that
hich we demand for ourselves.
We may even trail along in the
jhadow ow the Golden Rule, though
pur steps be faltering and our limbs
over weary.
For we are but human, and no hui
nan being of today is perfect.
Yes, the tail of the Golden Rule
receives many twists, yet it is the
all that never knows disjointment

TWISTING TINE TAIL or
THE GOLDEN RULE


The Golden Rule is a good rule,
but we often twist its tail to
FRAGILE.
It was laid down as a guiding
star to the faltering and hayward
footsteps of humanity. But there
are many feet in this town that
neglect to tread the golden pathway
of life.
II has been taught us at the moth
er knee, preached to us from the
pulpit, fed to us in the schools, de
claimed from the lecture platform,
and advocated from thousand
other sources.
But there are local ears that hear
not and eyes that refuse to see.
The tail of the Golden Rule is re-
ceiving some vigorous twists in this
town.
Often we are asked by some mer-
hant to preach the doctrine of
trade at home" We preach it, and
it helps to enrich the merchant who
made the request.
That is good, for we believe in
patronizing local institutions-we
ike to see them grow--we want the
money kept at home.
But when the same merchant
whose money till we have helped tc
ill sends out of town for his jol
printing We cannot but pity the $50
lation of the poor old Golden Rule.
Some people make their money il
this community, enjoy life in the
community, educate their children a
the expense of the community, and
then buy their goods from mer.
chants who are NOT in OF of the
community.
1t is some tug at the golden tail.
There are some people who want
the earth for what they sell an6
then expect to receive some of Their
own purchases for less than cost.
And the Golden Rule is helpless
forgotten-kicked INTO the discard
A few people make pratice of
parading their own virtues and
sneering at the frailties of their
neighbors.
Some want to hog everything ir
sight, though the less fortunate ex-
perience the gnawing pangs of hun
ger.
Occasionally we see sanctimon,
ious countenance in church while
the mind within is devising means
of skinning others out Of their hard
earned dollars.
The Golden Ruleq
Why, the poor, decrepit old rule
is strangling three hundred and sig
ty-five days in the year.
Its coat of gold has turned to
rust, and the once sparkling waters

vited.
We must reach out for it, grasp
it, haul it in with a united commun-
ity pull.
How many of our citizens would
like to see new factories come to
this town?
How many are willing to join
whole heartedly in an effort to get
themq
Let's stand up and be counted.

GET OUT OF THE OLD RUT

GET OUT OF THE OLD RUT
What's the use of spending our
whole lives sleeping in the same old
nut when there are bigger ones all
lround' us?
What's the use of being in nut
1t all?
We want more industries in this
town, and new industries are never
found in ruts. Ruts are too small
for them.
Let's crawl up out of our nut.
There is nothing in the old rut
for us, but there are opportunities
in every direction if we care to
reach out and grasp them.
1t is up to us.
We can stagnate in our rut, or
we can reach out and grasp some
thing-pull ourselves out-do some
thing-get to the top.
But we'll never do it as long as
we rattle around in the same old
rut with the dry bones of our an
cestors for company.
We need new industries, and there
are manufacturers all over the
country looking for changes in To-
cation.
But they will never erect their
plants in rut.
They are full Of life, and they
want live atmosphere about them.
They want to locate in a commun-
ity with advantages. q
We have them.
They want to be surrounded by
people of intelligence, who know
how to use their brains.
We have the intelligence, and our
brains are capable of accomplishing
vastly more than we have ever
dreamed of in the past.
This community is charged with
intellectual and physical dynamite,
but it is in rut and needs some one
to blow it out.
Let's all get busy and blow.
Let's pull some of those manu-
facturers into this town on tour
of inspection, and then let's give
them a fair opportunity to size up
our natural advantages and our in
tellectual force.
We won't get them all, but we will
get some of them.
Nobody ever swallows a loaf of
bread at one gulp.
Many bites make up square
meal, and many efforts will bring
new industries into our midst, with
bigger pay rolls, and more money in
circulation and more houses to be
filed and mouths to be fed.
1t all contributes to the prosperity
of community.
We want prosperity here, but
prosperity never goes out looking
for place to light.
We must hook it on the fly, and
our hook must be well baited or the
other fellow viii have the strongest
pull.
Again we say, let's get out of our
rut and do something.
Let's make a careful and sys-
tematic campaign for new indus
tries, increased population and
greater prosperity.
It's waiting for us, but it won't
come to us.
We must go out after it.
Opportunity is everywhere, but it
won't crawl into our pockets unin-

A bill proposing wharf tonnage
tax was defeated in the last legisla-
ture The harbor commissioner be-
lees the measures opponents did not
fully understand the proposition. how
ever. and that if the entire situation
is thoroughly and clearly explained
the old opposition will disintegrate.
There really is not much real rea-
son why such a tax should not be in
effect her etoday,' said one commits
sicner. discussing the subject today.
There are very few ports outside the
Hawaiian islands where such tax is
not imposed, varying from 2 cents to
s pence, or IL cents per ton. This is
an impost assessed against the goods
handled over the wharf, where the
pier is owned by the public. We. OF
course, have a wharfage tax against
ships which load AMI unload, of 2
cents per, ton, but that also is used in
almost all other ports throughout the
world, in addition to the wharfage
tax assessed the shippers or con
signees."
AS reported at the meeting of the
harbor commission yesterday evening
the territory at present receives about
100000 annually in wharfage fees un
der the present system; but the data
in preparation by the commission will
show plainly that this sum is far
from adequate in meeting the expense
of repairs, maintenance, interest on
investment and meeting the sinking
fund. This should not be difficult to
show, If 1t is proved that a new wharf
! costing say 100000, deteriorates SO

than 10 years that one pier would cost
the territory 100000, including the
original expense of building it.

several in Honolulu have cost far more
than that amount.

been in actual use about six months.
Already Chairman Forbes has been

Simultaneous with this step the Ha-

friends an appeal for contributions to

It says: ....-
1T Is almost a hundred years since
the first missionaries from the United
States landed on Hawaii. 1t is not
claiming too much to say that the Ha-
waii CT today is the fruit Of their la
bors. Their work, only On wider and
deeper foundation, still continues and
must be carried on till the last trump
shall sound; for there will always be
the need OF better education and So
cial conditions. There will always be
nations somewhere which need the
light. The Hawaiian Board is the
successor to the work of the fathers.
IL needs larger and better accommo-
daticns. What better than the cree
ton of a memorial building to the
memory OF the missionary fathers?
What more inspiring than to have the
noble work of the mission continued
and carried on in that building?
1T has been determined to erect a
memorial building TO the American
Protestant mission to Hawaii. For
tunately without expense to the Ha-
waiian board, splendid site on mis-
sion ground has been secured. There
