One very marked change in the

ton OF the point of greatest width,
which is nearly two inches higher in

line and rotundity of form after fat
tening which is entirely absent before
the finishing process is started.
In the outlines of the middle of
paunch of thin horses there is a fiat

| while the same measurements after
fattening result in almost a perfect
circle. While there is some change in
the lower half of the middle girth, the
greater change in the upper half elimi-
mates from the fat animal that degree
of paunchiness which is displeasing
and adds very much to the neatness
of the individual.
AS a few of the horses used in the
experiment were kept at heavy work
Immediately after the close Of the ex-
pertinent, it is interesting TO note that
as they lost in weight and condition
they assumed a form similar to that
which they had before the fattening
period.
These changes are so striking as to
need little or no comment but show
that the horse at hard work may not
only utilize his daily rations for the
production of work but may draw upon
the reserve energy which is stored
! up in the form of fat on his body.
While additional data should be Sc
cured along these lines before final
conclusions are made, the results here
presented seem TO indicate that the
greatest change in fattening horses is
one of width rather than depth, thai

HINTS FOR HORSE BREEDERS

Heavy Mare-Breeding Of Fancy
Horses Requires Training.

The heavy mare is the best animal
for the average farmer.
Do not go into the breeding of fancy
horses unless you have been trained
in the business. Otherwise. stick to
the heavyweights.
Few men examine their horses feet
as often as they should.
II your mare is to foal in March or
early in April. before grass comes, she
should have good care this winter.
Give her plenty of exercise and do
not keep her standing on plank floor.
Feed her a little faxseed or bran

agement. 1t must be noted, however,
that certain breeds have a wider
range of adaptability and are more
popular than others. The number of
pure-bred flocks is increasing every
year and the demand for good breed
ing stock is more than keeping pace
with the increase. Pure-bred stock
has a number of advantages over
grades. The natural or inherent adj
vantages of pure-bred stock arise
from the fact that there has been a
concerted effort in the development of
the better breeds to establish, inten-
sify, and perpetuate their superior
qualities by using only the best ami
mails for breeding purposes. There
have been some exceptions to this,
some inferior animals have been en-.
tered, but the formation of a breed
has in general been based upon su
periority in some form. Nevertheless
owing to the temperance of inferior
individuals, not all pure-bred sheer
are suitable to retain in the flock.
A breeder of pure-bred sheep can
develop a reputation that never could
be acquired with grades. The sales oil
pedigree breeding stock extend over
a much wider range of territory than
those of market stock. The show
ring also spreads abroad the fame OF
the breeder of purebred stock. Larg
er prices are obtained for pure-bred
ewes and rams when sold for breeding
purposes, although it costs little more
to produce them after the flock is
once established. There is also more
stability in their values than in those
OF market stock.
With a commercial flock there are
several phases that are worthy of con
sideration. Early spring lambs is one
of the most important, while late
spring or early fall lambs should re
ceiye due consideration. The produc-

MAKEUP OF A HORSE
Interesting Experiment With
Twenty-one Animals.
Data In Regard to Efficiency Of Three
Different Rations for Fattenin5
Purposes-Weisht Not Control
linz Factor In Making Gains.


The ability OF horse to lay on flesh
is largely a matter of individuality
controlled by disposition, tempera-
ment, age, condition, digestive cap@c-
ity and type. A most interesting eX-
pertinent was made, with Il horses, TO
obtain data in regard to the efficiency
of three different rations for fattening
purposes. The point to be discussed
in this article, however, is merely that
of the changes in form due to fatten-
ing.
The average gains made by horses
weighing over 1,450 pounds at the be-
ginning of the experiment were prac-
tically the same as those of lighter
horses, which would seem to indicate
that weight is not controlling fac
tor in making gains. Mature horses,
six or seven years Of age, made more
satisfactory gains than those four
to five years Of age.
A record of the outline of the chest
and of the middle OF the paunch OF
each horse was made at the beginning
and close of the experiment by means
of an adjustable chain, for the pur
pose of determining where the fat was
placed on the body.
Results showed that there was little
change in depth of body, especially
at the heart girth, but there was ar
apparent improvement in the sprin'
of rib and very material increase IL
the width of body throughout. ]
would seem from the facts obtained
that the greatest change in form du'
to the fattening process is noted il

Sheep husbandry should receive

THREE Bills ON
COMPENSATION
Being PREPARED
Legislature win Get Several
Providing for Relief for
Injured Employees

Three workmens compensation bills,
based on separate and distinct theo'
ries. will be presented at the coming
session of the legislature, unless their
authors decide otherwise before the
body conyenes next month.
Just before the close of the last ses-
sion Senator Ambrose J. Writ was
delegated to prepare bill touching
on compulsory compensation for injur-
ed employees in Hawaii. Writ is now
working on the bill and he said today
that so far he has adopted the prin'
cipal incorporated into the laws now
on the statute books of Iowa, Mime,
sofa, Washington and other states.
This system provides that the state
shall collect small percentage of the
payroll of concerns regularly and that
the fund shall be paid out to injured
employees on a fat-rate scale, for ex-
ample $500 for finger, $1,000 for an
arm, and so forth. .'.
1t is understood that another senat.
or and a representative, both new
members of the legislature, will offer
bills One of these now in preparation
is patterned after the Illinois compen-
sation law This latter statute pro-
vides that all concerns desiring to
come under the law shall post notices
to that effect. For minor injuries the
employe receives full pay from the
company direct while under physi-
clans care. For permanent injuries
he gets sum defined in the law for
the various injuries, also from the COM
pany direct. 49,. ~.
The other bill is similar. to the Ore.
gon statute, which the Building Trades
Council of Portland and the State Lab
or Federation of that state has been
fighting bitterly since its enactment,
even going to the; extent of securing a
referendum election on -the bill after
its passage by theelegislature. 1t pro-
vides for commission of five MEM
bers to be appointed by the governor
who shall decide on the amount of
compensation for each individual in
jury 81. ~: ... 81. -.-.
This amount is then paid by the EN-
ployer to the injured workman on or
der of the commission. In this man
ner commission favorable towards
a corporation has tendency to allow
the employe less amount of damages
than he would be entitled to. The
employee has no recourse at law.
1t is reported that this last bill is
being rushed to completion in an eff
fort to have it appear on the legisla-
tive calendar before either of the other
two measures. = -. T.. ..... 49,.

Announcement was. made this aft

theater that the moving-pictures "Ho

day, will not be shown at the Popular
as advertised
I'VE gave the pictures their first

to take any money from the public
without giving full value received.
The pictures are not clear enough and
we do not feel justified in showing
them.
Its a great disappointment, be-
cause we wanted to give Honolulu a
view of the pictures and hoped, as
everybody else does, that they would
be good enough to show on the main

enough and the Popular will not show
them, adhering to our settled policy
of giving the public absolutely moth

announcement followed conference
with Sheriff Charles Rose today
More than 100 prisoners are in
mates at the municipal Jail under the
jurisdiction of Fern. One of the first
duties of the new jailer was to make
an Inspection of the work now being
done by prisoners in the public parks.
About one-half of the total number
of prisoners are employed part of
each day in cleaning up and making
repairs on public grounds Much has
been accomplished in the identifying
of the parks, the various gangs act
ing in accordance with the plans sub
mitted by the Outdoor Circle and
kindred organizations.
Fern has been initiated into the
work of maintaining his large family
of dependents He will have the Sc

Fern today paid high tribute to
his predecessor, the late julius Asch,
when he said that he had found the
institution in splendid condition to
handle much larger number of pris-
oners than were there.
