B~, outlook.

As the time draws near for gath
ering In the beet crop. the indica-
tions are that the yield will be as
large or perhaps larger than usual.
The chief causes that initiates
against a record breaking crop this
year. was the hail storms that per-
sisted In making their appearance Al
frequent intervals. Some beets es-
capped entirely and these Will very
probably return large yields. OtherS
damaged early In the summer. Will
probably display shortage Of
growth in the root. although the tops
may have made luauriant growth.
Those that were struck by hail later
on are likely to show low percent
age OF sugar content The idea that
hail does no harm TO sugar beets Is
erroneous. as anything that damages
the leaves, the heart and lungs of the
beet. will reduce the crop yield In
one form or another. However. on
the whole. the prospects OF the beet
grower for profitable returns on his
beet acreage are brighter than usual.

serious one. Auxiliary to this ques-
tton. another one arises: when IL the
best time to plow in order TO best
conserve the moisture. No set rule
can BE- given In answer to this ques-
tion ~ the best time for plowing de-
pends entirely on circumstances and
must be decided by each man for.hi
self. Stubbie. weeds and rough
ground are common means OF retain
ing snow. and holding the larger
part OF the winter precipitation. In
deciding when field should be plow-
ed. the question OF whether q great
er amount Of moisture will be ac-
cumulated by holding the snow that
falls than will be dissipated by weed
growths. is paramount and must be
considered. In answering this ques-
ti0n several factors enter, viz: The
amount OF moisture already in the
soil that may be los Through weed
growth: the probable time before
frost will destroy these weeds: the
possibilities OF Increasing the amount
OF water In the soil by holding the
snow that may come: the danger OF

button OF farm labor. An extended

mems Christian Association win De
made this week to the College OF Ha
wall. Some acquaintance with the
work of this institution should be or

island life.
In addition to this acquaintance with
the college, however, the class viii
learn much Of scientific interest re-
garding the island. especially with ref.
erence to the insect and plant life.
The activity of insect life here Is such
as to awakent the interest of the

in greater part of Hawaiian forms es-
pecially such as are of economic i'm

culiar to the islands is of interest to
all who live here for a1onger or short
er period, and this Professor Rock
will show to the class by means OF
the college herbarium.
Professor Clarke will accompany the
class on tour of inspection about the
farm If the present good weather con.
tains, and Professor Chapman will de-
monstrate the work of the domestic
art department by means of special
exhibition similar to that whihc the
department sent to the Panama-Pacific
exposition.
Altogether the afternoon will un-
doubtedly be OF great interest and
profit to all who are able tc accom-
psny the class. 1t Is requested that
advance registration be made at the
