Frozen Food for Nerves.

Whereas once upon 8 time ices" (although not ice) were considered un- suitable for invalids, some doctors have now decided that they supply needed stimulant in cases of nerv- ous breakdown and have tonic virtues of their own in certain fever cases.
 But the frozen dainties should be carefully prepared and contain only the finest ingredients, and it should be impressed on the invalid that he or she should eat of the ice creams, etc, only very slowly, in small sips from the end of teaspoon and need less to say, with the express permis- sion of the physician.
 The most wholesome of drinks is grapefruit juice squeezed into aer- ated water and iced. Frozen eggnog and frozen custards have their vir- tues, but are not so palatable as cream ices, which likewise afford a good deal of nourishment.

Rattle of Alma.

Sixty years ago soldiers of Britain and France, fighting side by side, achieved one of the most brilliant vic tories in the annals Of war Never has the valiant fighting spirit of the British troops been better shown than when. on September 20, 1854, they waded through the River Alma amidst a shower of bullets, fought their way up the precipitous banks on the other side of the river and. hay ing burst through the dense under growth of vineyards, drove back the Russians, who were led by Prince Menschkoff.
 The British troops were led by Lord Raglan and the French by Marshal St. Arnaud. Three thousand three hundred of the allies were killed and wounded, a heavy loss when one con- siders that the British forces num- bered only about twenty-seven thou sand and the French thirty thousand

IN WEST VIRGINIA.

A passenger conductor of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad writes to Hon. Fred o. Blue, state tax com missioner of West Virginia, as fol lows: T was doubtful, as was every body else, as to the effect such law would have. l must confess that the immediate effect has been almost be- several pay days and Saturdays, and there has been absolutely no drinking worth mentioning, and where l had to endure personal risk in fist encounters almost every week to secure order from some trunks, 1 now handle even larger crowds with comparative ease. The women and children are now trav cling, partly on the money that was spent for booze and partly because they are not afraid to travel. The re- suits seem too good to last, but if all the officers of the law keep after it, 1 see no reason why things shall not be even better as time goes on. This is a pretty unqualified indorsement for a railroad conductor who has been up against the world and a rough part of the world for 30 years, but I feel that the changed conditions war rant it.
 The following was received from a large coal operator of the state: T never in my life saw such great improvement in the way of behavior and manly conduct as on the passenger train of the Cabin Creek branch of the Chesapeake and Ohio since whisky ceased to be a merchandising proposi- tion in our state. Further, l notice with great pleasure that a large DOT tion of our men who used to go out to get whisky are now spending this time with their families or at the Y M. c. A, and portion of the money which originally went for whisky is now going toward the entertainment of their families, which means untold pleasures for the children"
 MT. Blue concludes his report with this statement: Such letters from men in touch with the practical every day life speak with more convincing power than anything l can say"

TREATING OATS FOR SMUT
Mixture of Formaldehyde and Water Practical and Effective Method.

Seed oats this spring must be treated for smut Nearly all spring oats last year smutted badly and all seed now available are probably badly infested Treat the seed with formal dehyde and avoid loss from smut.
 l. Mix one pound (one pint) of for maldehyde with forty gallons of water sin a large size barrel
 ?. Put a bushel or more Of oats IT.. two bushel bag Ca cheap gunny sack of very coarse open materiaD.
 3. Dip bag and oats into the soIu- tion and shake up and down until all oats are thoroughly wet. Elevate and drain.
 4. Allow the oats to remain in the bag for about two hours, or empty m a heap and leave for about two hours
 5. Spread them out to dry. When nearly dry, drying may be hastened by sprinkling them With thoroughly air slaked lime.
 G.. Sow about ten per cent more per acre to allow tor the swelling.
 7. The machinery and receptacIee to be used in handling the oats after they are treated should first be thor oughly cleaned with the solution.
 Note. Mix the solution just before using. Apply the treatment just be- fore seeding
 For convenience, pulley may be arranged directly over the open end of the barrel and through it a rope can be used for dipping, shaking and draining the bags of oats.
 Another method sometimes used in treating seed with formaldehyde, con- sists of spreading the seed out in a three-inch layer on a smooth, clean floor sprinkling them with the soIu- tion, and then shoveling back and forth to insure contact of all seed with the solution. The treated seed are then shoveled into pile and GOV cred with sacks or canvass to keen the gas enclosed. After six or eight hours the covers are removed ane the oats spread out to dry.

ACCIDENTS DUE TO LIQUOR.

It will not be long before the sa- loon will be as much separated from the industrial plant as it is now from the church.

---.---------- ----- A BLESSING TO LABOR.

An authority on the labor question makes this statement:
 The wiping out of the liquor traffic will throw two thousand millions of dollars annually into the legitimate channels of trade and industry. This would take the entire olsput of every factory now in existence and necessi- tate the building of new factories. It would give employment to every idle person at increased wages. The bene- fits thus accruing to labor would far exceed the demands that labor is mak- ing of capital if all these demands were granted today"

The Dardanelles.

The strait known as the Dardanelles tthe Hellespont of the ancients) unites the Sea of Marmora with the Aegean, part of the Mediterranean sea. It is so called from two castles by which the narrowest part is pro- tected and which preserve the name Of the city of Dardanus in the Troad. In terms of the treaty of 1S41, con- firmed by the treaty of Paris of 1856, no foreign ship of war may enter the strait except by permission of the government of Turkey, and even mer- chant vessels are only allowed to pass the defending forts during the day.

CS( koCi Ulli loI NilOlcid method you can hold hog cholera in check, especially if sanitary precau- tions are taken.
 The double method consists of using serum and small quantity of hog cholera virus (blood taken from a hog about to die from cholera) The dou- ble method usually produces immunity against cholera for life.
 In using the double treatment con siderable caution should be used A veterinarian should be summoned as there is danger of producing hog choI- era if the doses are not properly given. If cases are brought to the at tention Of the state veterinarian i'm mediate aid will be given.

EVERY HOC RAISER KNOWS
 CHOLERA |s CONTAG|OUS

Methods of Prevention and Cure-Sin-
 gle and Double Treatment With An
 ti-Hoe Cholera Serum Properly
 Given Effective.
 Every hog raiser knows that hog cholera is contagious and infectious disease. If no germs were brought into the herd there would be no hog cholera, The germs are frequently carried by dogs, birds, the feet of peo- pie, wagon wheels and running water. All new hogs brought on the farm should be quarantined 30 days before they are allowed to run with other hogs. In cases of death by hog cholera all carcasses should be burned. Quick lime is a good disinfectant, and can easily be scattered about the hog lots. Another effective disinfectant is a six ounce solution of U. s. P. creolin to one gallon of water.
 Ii hog cholera is in the herds of the neighbOrhoOd, vaccinate at once with anti-hog cholera serum. This will not cure the disease but will prevent the healthy hogs from becoming infected.
 There are two methods of vaccina- tion, the single tor serum alone) and the double Cor Simultaneous) methods. By using the serum alone method, there is no danger of infecting healthy hogs with cholera.
 The objection to the single treat ment is that it only gives immunity against cholera for certain indefnate length of time By using this

Suggestion For the Mayor

If, as the Star-Buletin suggests, Mayor Lane
has offered the vacant seat On the sppervisorial
board to R. W. Shingltsahe action will bring credit
to the mayor, whethetoMrg Single accepts or does
not accept Mt. lShaSIe4 been offered the
position, otis very much to be hoped that he will
accept He would be of immense value to the
city as a member of the governing body, while
his services supervisor would entitle him,
later on, to SOME higher Office within the gift of
the people If Mr.. Shingle cannot see his way
clear towards making the sacrifice that seat upon
the board would involye, why should Mayor Lane
not allow the business men of the city, as repre-
sented in the chamber of commerce, to select man
for the vacant seat? 1t would be an excellent
thing for Honolulu if the board and the chamber
could be knit closer together. Supervisor Holing
er is already a member Of the chamber Of com
merce, but his membership is incidental to his su-
perviSorship, He represents the board in the
chamber and the promotion committee. Now,
if a representative chamber of commerce man.
selected by the mayor in consultation with Presi-
dent Waldron of the chamber, could be nominated
to the board, direct representative of the cham
Der there, it would be a wonderfully effective thing
in many ways.

An Important Election,

IN little more than month the voters of Ho-
nolulu will be called upon to elect delegates
to "charter convention" the work of which will
be to draft charter for the city for submits
sion to and adoption by the voters. That Homo
lulu needs a decided revision Of her municipal
organic act is admitted: That the residents are
prepared to back up modern. revision appears
certain but that revision must be drawn on stern
y practical lines to be acceptable to the majority.
The special election of July means quite as
much to Honolulu, to say the least, as any NUM-
cipal election which has been held here. 1t is
more important that we should have level headed.
patriotic and able representatives in the charter
convention than that we should have any particu-
lar set of men on the board, Of supervisors. The
work Of the charter convention delegates will
either result in greatly 'impf9ved municipal con-
ditions througtf"failure it &ill mean continu-
ance of our aniquated municipal system for years
to come. ...
The Hawaiian press Of Honolulu should take
up this matter with diligence and impress upon
the Hawaiian voters the significance and the i'm
Portancc of the July election. In this, as in every
other matter dealing with the political situation
here, the assistance OF the Hawaiian voter must be
enlisted if any good is to1result IT $ of the very
highest importance, too that the Hawaiian press
and the Hawaiian leaders keep the Hawaiian pub
lie abreast OF the work of the convention, order
that each step taken may be understood aud in
order that the final draft Of the new charter, may
be plain to the majority, without the chance Of
demagogic misrepresentation as to meaning and
motive. The proposed charter must be accept
able to the Hawaiians else it will not be adopted

complete as any which can be supplied by the
older universities The training Is both theoreti-

Hawaii leads among all the cane sugar produc-
ing countries in the application OF science to crop
production. That has been the secret of success
in this industry in these Islands. The slogan has
been Science and business efficiency" 1t is the
application OF these two principles that has made
the sugar industry so tremendous success
Other cane countries have richer soils and more
favorable natural and climatic conditions Other
lands, many of them, have hedged sugar produc-
ton with far more favorable Legislative and arti-
fetal barriers e&port bounties freedom from in
ternal taxation protective tariffs, special labor
concessions, and free transportation through gov
ernmentaiy subsidized steamship lines
The sugar industry of Hawaii has had less pro-
lection and less codding than any industry Of
equal magnitude that has, ever grown up in any
country and il has grown to be what it is today
because it has had to learn to stand alone. The
advances made have been through the applica-
ton of skill and science more than because of
favor shown. 4 ats6al, ... a.. .45..s-ftt

The Nebraskar1 Incident

n F'TER the sinking tnwarned Of the Lusitania,
with the drowning OF more than a thousand
noncombatarts including fifty babies, is difficult
to grow excited over the torpedoing OF the Amer
lean Hawaiian reghtcr NebraSkan which was
been engaged in carrying horses iur army use from
the United States to France. If there could be
any justification whatever for the sinking OF un-
armed merchant ships, that justification would
extend to the sinking of the Nebraskan.
What is highly significant in the incident, how
ever, is that it follows so closely the barbarous
attack upon the LuSitania and before the German
government has even answered the American note
of protest demanding that attacks upon unwarned
American ships must cease. The launching of a
torpedo against the Ncbraskan is an effective Ger
man answer to President Wilson's note, answer
that gives the lie to the utterances voiced by what
few friends Germany has left that the Germans
want to be friendly"
Germany has answered. Her answer to the de-
mand that there must be an end to the carrying
of war in opposition to every civilized conven-
ton and in direct contravention OF her pledges
made to the world is the deliberate attempt to sink
another American steamer undoubtedly flying the
Stars and Stripes and Of such a rig that her iden-
tity could not have been mistaken by any sea-
faring man.
That is GermanyS answer to America, plain
intimation that she will not swerve hairsbreadth
from her plan to attack whatever sails within her
announced war zone. The deaths of nOncOmba-
tants is the least of the German worries, and
American lives are just as unimportant to Ger
many as those of anyone else.
