LEAHI HOMEIN
GREAT need OF
EMERGENCY FUND
II $500 Is Melted From Benefit
Friday It Will. Be Big Help
In Relief Work

An emergency fund to draw from in
treating emergency cases. That is
what Leahi Home needs and that is
what the proceeds from the benefit
show to be given by the navy boys of
the Maryland, the submarine flotilla
and the Alert in the Opera House Fri
day night will be used for
DR.. A, y. Sinclair. superintendent of
the home, says such fund is the cry
ing need of the tubercular institution
at present. Patients are turned away
every day. The beds in the hospital
are full, and although there are va
cant beds to be procured there are no
funds for providing care to the patti
ents. The average number of patients
for the last five years has been 80
per month. Some stay only for two
or three days, others for Is or 20
months. The average cost per patient
has been $50 per year.
The demand for an emergency fund
has been so great that the officers of
the home have decided to treat every
patient fer which they can get a guar
antee of $3.50 until there is a vacancy
in the hospital. The baseball benefit
given last year returned fund of
$1400 which permitted the treatment
of AZ emergency cases before it was
exhausted. ~. -
II $500 could be raised by the navy
boys with their show there would be
three or four more patients taken in.
A pavilion is also needed for which
$2700 will have to be secured to meet
the demands of the increased number
of applicants for treatment.
The officers of the home hope that
Honolulu will support the cause by
turning out for ile benefit show. The
funds from the territory and county
can be used only for the care of the
sick. All improvements and emer-
gencies must be, financed by other
means. It is hoped that a large num-
Der of Honolulans will realize this and
pay TIE price of admission to the navy
vaudeville Friday night, which made
such a big hit two weeks ago when
given as an F-4 benefit. A. w. T..
Bottomley, treasurer sof the home, is
handling the financial end of the show.

be one of the most interesting. A
large assortm ent of Japanese arti-
cles has been obtained. Among them
are cherry boxes, nut bowls,
collar boxes, incense burners, silk
bags and prints of various sizes and
prices. There are alse Japanese
gifts for children, which include
fairytales. dofts and puzzles.
In the fancy-work booth there will
be handmade articles of every de-
scription. Hand-painted china-wfll
also be on sale.
Bay-berry candles, birch-bark cal
endars, hand-painted Christmas post
cards, homemade candies both in
bulk and in boxes, wood and metal
articles, and holly and histletoe will
be among the things for sale in the
various booths.
The sufragette shoe-shining booth
guarantees good work
Everyone come. There will be
mems gifts as we'll as ladies'.
Lunch will be served from 5 p. m.
until 7 p. m.
The sale will start at AIS p. m,
and at p. m. an auction sale of
everything which hasn't been sold

and the public were misled because
the government did not promptly
obtain reports to give the correct
conditions and estimates. In fact
II Is my opinion that the government
should have compiled later report
on the winter wheat crop and Tint
for practical purposes reports on
winter wheat received in July for
compilation August should not be
considered conclusive.
The government reports on the
corn crop have been misleading in
somewhat different sense. 1t would
seem that the department is very
greatly interested in the develop
ment of the growing of corn in the
southern states and is apt to lose
sight of the great Importance of the
corn crop in the northern or main
portions of the corn belt.
When a large portion of the
wheat crop is of such low grade quail
ity that it is not fit for milling pur-
poses, and when the corn is soft and
chaffy to such an extent that it does
not have a feeding value, the gov
eminent reports should so indicate
in some manner that is more ex-
pressive of the real condition than
the percentage figures tabulated
from their compilations.
Drawing line through Bloom
ington, ILL.,, east and west, it is safe
to say that a very large portion of
the corn north of that line is UNI
merchantable and will not stand
shipping to terminal markets and
that its feeding value is not more
than 25 to 40 per cent that of we'll
matured corn. This region produces
a large portion of the surplus corn
that is handled by the western ter
minal market gateways, and. judg-
ing from the information that | have
gathered at local meetings of grain
dealers held throughout the state of
Iowa, it is my opinion that there
will not be as great a movement of
corn from this territory as has been
for the reason that the
grain dealers will not assume the
perilous chance of loss in transpor-
tation that must be assumed in
to handle this soft
corn"

a JUST CRITICISM

George A. Wells. in the Price Cur
rent Grain Reporter, voices just crit
icism of the misleading crop esti-
mates issued by the government this
year, when he says:
This has been a season of crop
growth sensations. The acreage
planted both of winter wheat and
corn, was largely increased this YEAR
as compared with last and the
growth conditions at the beginning
OF the season were extremely favor
able. The crop reports compiled by
the government and private reporters
began the season with the most op-
timistic estimates of promise of final
production, but climatic conditions
have been extreme and it is said that
there has been but one other year
during the last 35 in which the eli
matte conditions were so unfavor-
able as this year.
"A leading agriculturist recently
stated to me that he could very ac-
curately estimate the corn crop by
his chart of climatic conditions,
showing precipitation and tempera-
ture, and l have repeatedly said dur
ing the last growing season that it is
impossible to produce and properly
mature corn crop without having
hot weather during the months of
July and August, and it is we'll
known that these months of this
year were cold and that there was
scarcely what might be considered
hot summer day during the months
Of July and August.
1T would seem to me that the bu-
roau of crop estimates of the depart
ment of agriculture may justly be
criticized for the manner in which it
has published its reports on winter
wheat and corn during this season.
| believe that there is no organiza-
ton or private individual who has
the facilities for obtaining reports
for compilation as has the depart
ment of agriculture. and as rule
believe their com pilations are as ae-
curate as may be reasonably ex-
pected.
THE government report on winter
wheat computed the abandoned acre
age in May and estimated the final
production in August from reports
received during the latter part OF
July. When the government cor
respondents made their final reports
on winter wheat the harvest had not
been completed and the excessive
rains that occurred subsequently de-
layed the harvest of thousands of
acres of winter wheat from two to
three weeks and resulted in deterior-
alton of quality to such an extent
that nearly so per cent of the crop
was lost by abandoned acreage and
quality, so far as milling purposes
are concerned; and the grain trade

PREPAREDNESS

/ From its birth as a nation the
hited States has followed the policy
II attending strictly to it's own bust
Pss and maintaining compare
Eely small army and navy. His
Try shows that this policy has
prked satisfactorily in keeping the
ltion out of war and enabling it's
fzens to devote their money and
Iergy to the internal developm ent

For many years the leading ma
pms of Europe have followed the
blcy of military and naval pre-
Rredness. History records that this
blicy has proved "a provocative

SLUGGISH MOVEMENT
 RESUMED ON MARKET
Leading Shares Show No Pre-
 nOunced Change Ellh5r Way.

New York. Jan. 2.-The first days trading of 1915 on the stock exchange was marked by the smallest overturn of any two hour session in some years Attendance of brokers and customers was in keeping with the sluggish movement. Leading shares showed no pronounced change either way and some of the speculative favorites failed of 9 single transa ction. Among the specialties were such variable changes as six point loss in New York Air Brake and five point ad- vance in Scars Roebuck. News from London, where the market is to re- open on Monday. acted as a deterrent to any trading on the bull side. Bonds were stea dy.
 Wall Street, 10:30 A. M.-Foreign advices exercised depressing effect up- on the stock market at today's open ing, most issues manifesting a yield ing tendency. New York Air Brake was prominent in the special class Tor its six point decline, and such active shares as were quoted in the first half hour inclined to heayiness. United States Steel and Union Pacific soon recovered, however, but Western Maryland aded a point to its recent severe loss Bethlehem Steel gained a material fraction, while most of the leaders were virtually unchanged. Dealings were very light.
