OF COMMAND
SAUNDERS

Mail advices reaching Honolulu to
day from San Francisco brought word
that Capt Henry F. Weeden of the
Manoa has been stripped OF his com,
mand because of what Capt C. W
Saunders, superintendent of the Mat.
son Navigation Company, calls a
"fagrant breach OF discipline This
confirms the story recently printed in
the Star-Bulletin.
Coast papers make the following
comments: r.. 49, ~. <--.
Capt. Henry F. Weeden, one of the
veteran shippers of the Pacific coast,
was peremptorily stripped of his com
mand of the Matson liner Manoa
when that vessel reached Honolulu
October Z, and discharged by the Mat.
SON Navigation Company for the good
Of the service
The only explanation offered by
Capt. C. W. Saunders, superintendent
of the Matson Navigation Company,
was that Weeden had been found
guilty Of fragrant breach of discip-
line
"Weeden arrived in San Francisco
as passenger on the liner Ventura.
His post on the Manoa was taken by
First Officer William Rind, who will
be In command until the service is
readiusted.
Weeden came around the Horn to
the Pacific coast years ago as trusted
ship officer OF the American Hawaiian
Steamship Company. So
Eight years ago he Joined the Mat
SON Navigation Company as captain of
the Lurline. He ran that ship for five
years, and when the Manoa was built
three years ago he was given COM
mand of that liner, which was con-
sidered one of the best berths the Mat.
son Navigation Company had to offer
"Weeden is 81 years old, has a wife
and several children, and lives in Ala
media county. He appears to feel his
dismissal keeniy.
.Capt. Saunders said: 'Weeden may
be able to obtain another command.
He has committed no offense that
makes it impossible for him to secure
a license -.
Capt. F. N. Edwards of the Lurline
will be given command of the Manoa.
Capt. Troell Smith of the Hyades will
succeed Edwards on the Lurline, and
Capt Rind will assume command of

FIFTY YEARS IN OFFICE
IS BUT 81 YEARS OLD
Record Of Miss Emma S. Brown Be.
heved Unique Among Government
Employees Of Washington.

1t seems safe to credit Miss Emma
s. Brown, with being at sixty-one years
of age the youngest person in govern
ment employ who has seen fifty years
continuous service. There may have
been others who found employment
under the government at an earlier
age than eleven years, but none is
known
in hte record, and it IL doubtful. If
there are others. that any of them con-
iinued for half century and are still
in harness for Uncle Sam.
Miss Brown is chief of the trimming
division Of the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing. and has los employees
under her who recognize her exec
utive ability. When she entered the
service as an employer OF the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing, April 4,
1865. she was set to work making
packages of the old fractional paper
currency known as skinplasters.
Miss Brown was born in Philadel-
phia, April %. 1854. Her father. a
Philadelphia contractor, was given the
job to wire the Treasury Building dur
ing the Civil War, to make possible
the destruction of the money vaults by
electric spark in the event that the
Confederate armies should capture the
National Capital. Some conditions of
this work were of a Notwithstanding
character and her father contracted
illness that resulted in his death.
a youth of eighteen years, got the war
fever, and, pretending that he was
twenty-one years of age, and his own
master, enlisted. He met death in his
first encounter with the enemy, at
Gettysburg. This left his mother with
two daughters to support and no oc-
cupation.
S. NJ Clark, first director of the Blu
reau of Engraving and Printing, was
a personal friend of the Brown family
1t was through his good offices that the
eleven-year old girl, Emma S. Brown,
older than her sister, obtained employ
ment and became the family wage
Garner There was no civil service in
those days, and child labor was viewed
differently than now.
Although the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing is only fifty-three years
old having been organized August
%, 1862, Miss Browns fifty years of
service do not make her the oldest en-
ployee. There are several now in the
bureau who were there before her.
While Miss Brown entered the service
April 4, 1866, she was out of service
for several months. In the process of
equalization, a matter of record, she is
given credit for fifty years continuous
service under the government.

UNIFORMITY DESIRABLE IN
gEi GETTING EXHIBITION
CORN.

In selecting ten ears for exhibition
the FIRST thing to remember is that the
sample will be judged as whole and
not in part on the merits of a few ex.
ceptionally good ears. Two or three
unusually fine ears cannot make UP
for the deficiency of the rest of the
sample They viii bring out more
prominently the poor qualities of the
other ears and therefore detract from
rather than add he appearance OF
the sample.
Uniformity be one of the
principal consiuc. IONS in selecting
corn for exhibition. Have every ear
like every other ear in shape, size
character of kernel, color of cob and
in shade OF color Of the grain. wher
selecting sample, first pick out in the
field while husking or from the wager
or crib one hundred or more Of the
best ears to be found. Lay them Out
on a table or floor side by side, and
having in mind all the characters OF
a good ear, study each carefully and
eliminate the poorest ones. Two OF
three hours can be spent very profit
ably at this. Next, select two or three
of the most ideal ears in the pile
using each as standard, match them
with as many good ears as can be
found. Finally, out Of these lots
choose the best ten ears that viii
match.
The ear should be cylindrical, or al
least only slightly tapering. with rows
running straight from butt to tip. A
tapering ear has either less rows OF
one end than on the other, or the
kernels are shorter or narrower OF
the tip end. In either case, the
yield of grain is less than that of Z
cylindrical ear; besides, in the lattel
case, there is the additional objection
os lack OF uniformity in shape Of kerne
which makes it impossible for thu
planter to drop them evenly

WI The FARMER
NEEDS RURAL CREDIT
How He Could Secure the Capital
Needed For Investment In Farm
Property and In Permanent
Improvements.
f. B. BoMBERGER.
Maryland Agricultural College
Extension Service.

In the old days when the American
farmer produced for local market
and bought in local market, under
conditions determined largely by To-
cal needs. when crops were staple and
methods of production were stand
ardized, there was little need for ex-
tended credit. Each crop paid the
way for the next, and store credit was
sufficient for his needs. Nowadays
this is all changed. The commercial
farmer of today produces his crops
under conditions that are affected by
worldwide influences. He sells in
market that is fixed by national and
international conditions and he buys
under conditions similarly fixed. Fur.
Their, the old, careless, slipshod
methods of production are no longer
efficient The impoverished land de
mands more intensive cultivation,
drainage. fertilizers. more live stock
and more labor. All of these call for
more capital; and the question is,
where shall he get it?
Why not from the banks? it may be
asked. The answer is that our whole
banking system has been created and
organized to meet the needs of com.
merce, trade and manufacturing in
dustry, and is not suited to the re,
quirements of the farmer.
To carry on his business effectively
the farmer must have two distinct
types of credit, neither of which is
adequately provided by our present
banking system: first, long term
credit, by means of which he may
secure capital to buy his land or to
make permanent improvements: sec.
ond, short time credit which viii sup
ply him with capital for the purchase
81 seeds, fertilizers, machinery, live
stock, labor, etc. He needs long time
credit because the returns from one OF
two or FIVE years crops cannot be ex.
pected to repay capital invested in the
form Of permanent improvements. He
needs short time credits because crops
do not mature within the limited credit
periods customarily allowed by our
commercial banks. The farmers of
European countries are provided with
two distinct types of credit agencies
which are especially designed to meet
these needs The one is the Land
Mortgage Association, which enables
him to issue and sell bonds, running
for long periods of years, bearing a
low rate of interest and secured by
the value of his land. The other pro
vides a special form of personal credit
not limited to thirty, sixty or ninety
days or even six months, but extend
ing from six months to three years.
/ These are the Rural Credit Banks
which play so important part in the
development of efficiency in European
| agriculture.
These two types of institutions, in
| come form, should be placed at the
| disposal of American agriculture; for
| until the American farmer is per.
| mitted to mobilize his assets and his
| credit as fully and as freely as does
| the merchant, the manufacturer or
| the industrial corporation, his pro.
| ductive capacity must necessarily be
| limited and the progress of the in.
dustry is bound to be retarded.

"THE LAW OF THE LAND,
A vital Drama to be Presented at The
Colonial Theatre.

Friday, November 19t1 will witness
the initial presentation in this city of
THE Law of The Land" George Broad
bursts vital and human drama of life,
which had the distinction of having
scored the biggest dramatic success
of the New York stage last year. THE
Law of the Land" played the entire
season at the Forty-eighth Street The
atre. outdiving by many weeks any
drama during the theatrical pediod
of 1914-15.
"The Law of The Land"comes to this
city with an impressive array of famil-
lar players. headed by Adelaide
French. 1t has been one of the most
discussed dramas of the contemporary
stage, because it deals with the prim-
tive emotions of the heart, love, ejal-
ousy, hatred and revenge. The hero
inc is gentle, sensitive, refined, wo-
man married to a cold and callous
brute of man, who finds his chief de-
light in torturing her.
He neglects her and abuses her and
makes her the hapless victim of his
furious temper Inevitably, the other
man comes along, and then follow
complications which have made "The
Law of The Land" one of the most
thrilling dramas seen on the stage
in many years
