LIQUOR PETITION
OF PLEASANTON
DEAD FOR 2 YEARS
Commission Rejects on Ground
Number of Signers Was
insufficient

mission at its meeting yesterday aft,
ernoon adopted the report OF Inspector
Fennell, which recommended that the
application be not considered, on the
ground that the petition did not con.
tain the signatures OF the number OF
property-holders required by law.
Attorney II. w. Breckons appeared
before the commission with a request
that Manager T. G. Duisenberg be
given 30 days more time 10 obtain
the necessary number Of signatures.
but II was denied. the commission bas-
ing its action en- the opinion of the at.
torney-general that under the law the
majority number OF signers must be
the majority at the time the petition
was filed. The application was filed
several months ago. consequently the
signatures acquired after that date
would not apply in strict conformity
with the statute.
Breckons argued TIT Duisenberg
had conscientiousIy obtained what he
believed was a majority OF the prop
erty-holders TO sign, and that II his
majority was reduced because some Of
those who signed had died or moved
away. the board IN fairness should

Nesrly $25o0O0 will be spent by the
Lihue Plantation Company In con
structing the proposed railway line on
Kauai, which has been approved re-
Gently by the governor, for the as
sistance of the homesteaders in the
Kapaa district Of the Garden Island.
The lines exact route has not been
determined yet, though 1t will lie most

ritory and tracts held by the home
steaders. For the right-of-way over
the former licenses will be given the

Of these licenses is IN preparation now
by the Encouragement. Preliminary
survey OF one Of the proposed routes
will. be undertaken next week by en-
CHEERS under instructions from Supt.
C. r. Forbes OF the public works de-
partment.
Two routes are considered. One.
considerably mauka. win require q
slight but steady upgrade haul. near
IL all the way from the Lihue mill
TO NaWiliwili harbor But it would af-
ford a comparatively easy crossing
over the Wailua river
The second route would be on
lower level, obyiating the grade and
would be about i've miles shorter, but
at the Wailua river would require an
enormous bridge. with span perhaps
1000 feet IN length and ESQ feet in
height. This feature alone would cost
$50 900 to $4,000 to construct, it is
estimated. Whether the extra cost Of
the haul over the additional mileage
and heavy grade would eventually
equal the cost of the huge bridge on
the lower routes is q mathematical
problem In freight transportation tina;
the company must figure out.
Attorney F. E Thompson, the COM
pany's legal representative. left last
night for Kauai. where he expects TO
close agreements between the home.
steaders and the firm today and to-
morrow. These agreements have to
do with the planting Of pineapples and
cane end the purchase or transporta-
ton to market of the crops. The COM
pany probably also viii make arrange
ments for temporary loans to assist
the landholders until their produce IS
ready for sale.
Actual constructive operations on

APPLY LIME TO ACID SOILS

Lime-Meaning of Word.

The only economic neutralizer, or
corrective, for soil acid1ty which is
within the reach of the farmer is
lime. Ordinarily one thinks of lime
as that material used in the making
of plaster and mortar. Throughout
the agricultural world today, however,
the word slime" has taken on a very
general meaning. 1t not only includes
burnt lime, or quicklime, but also air
and water-slacked lime, ground lime
stone, mari, pulveffzed shells, and
marble dust. These different mate
rails, with the exception of burnt lime
and water-slacked lime, are common
ly spoken of as "carbotate of lime"
or lime carbonate" because they con-
sist of ordinary quicklime combined
with carbon dioxide gas of the air.

sow Alfalfa IN EARLY FALL
All Danger of Interference From
Weeds Is Avoided-Pant 10 Not
Very Vigorous at Start.

A great many people who SOW al
falfa in the spring complain that the
weeds take it." They do in a great
many instances. Weeds and alfalfa
will not be able to occupy the same
ground. One or the other must gain
the upper hand in short order and
the weeds are the more enduring and
the harder to conquer. AS conse-
quence the alfalfa is smothered out
by them, and along in the middle of
the summer you hear another man
proclaiming that alfalfa is no good
Weeds have caused more alfalfa
failures than sour lands, wet soils or
poor seeded preparation. The danger
is particularly great where the seed
ing is done in the spring. Every
weed seed in the soil is fighting for
air enough and warmth enough to
sprout, and after it sprouts it will
fight for room enough to make it's
growth Alfalfa is not a particularly
vigorous plant in it's first few days of
life, and it is the first few days that
count in the growth of alfalfa versus
weeds.
On account of the danger from in
reference by the weed crop, it is
usually better to sow alfalfa in the
fall, or in late summer. 1t will be
time and money saved to put in the
seed in the summer following of the
land, stirring the soil enough to keep
down each successive weed crop. The
soil stirring will not only get rid Of
the weeds that have come up, but
1t will stimulate the remaining seeds
that are lying in the soil to germina-
ton and growth. In this way several
successive seedlings of weeds can be
disposed Of and the ground left fairly
clear for the summer or fall seeding
of alfalfa.
Winter or early spring blowing will
go a long way toward preparing a
good seeded for the fall sowing Of
alfalfa. If the ground needs it, turn
under considerable quantities of ma
nure when it is broken. If lime is
needed, this should be spread before
the blowing and turned under SO 1t
