DOCK TROUBLES
CONTINUE

Some iIftefestihg stories of the S.
+. dock strike are being told by re-
turning Matsonia passengers. Here
is one that will bear repetition:
Down at Pier %, where the Mat
sonia was loading, everything was
hustle and hustle owing to the strike,
and there was more or less confusion.
Immense drays we're being unloaded
and the dock was being piled higher
and higher with freight consigned to
Honolulu firms.
"A gang OF green longshoremen
were here and there collecting the
different lots. A shipment Of fall mil
linery, several chests containing gold
for one OF the banks, four automo-
biles, number of cases containing
automobile parts, much needed in
Honolulu, were+all passed by.
Finally the watchful eye of the fore
man espied a shipment of five boxes
of different appearance than the
others. The gang was called and ten
derly the cases were carried aboard
and placed in the icehouse.
This was shipment of the Deli
cious Orange Blossom Candy, consist
ing of Chocolates, .Bonbons, Taffies
and Pennylix, for the Honolulu Drug
Company.
SO II HAPPENS that the good people
OF Honolulu will not suffer any incon-
venience, strike or no. strike, for at
least two weeks,-Adx.

pointed out that their frontage is but
235 per cent. of the total in the dis

the protests filed last January are
still valid. The public hearing was
ordered closed and the whole dispute
referred tC the city attorney to report
at the next meeting Tuesday. 1t APP.
peared to be the opinion of many
of those present last night that, SUIT
toms protests were the only valid
ones; that as they did not amount to
the legal IS per cent they could not de-
lay the project.
The hotel and the trust company sti-
pulated into their protests that if two

the squeeze coat now specified as
top dressing for the pavement such
protests are TO be regarded as with

of a moving picture theater at that

How Quebec Does It.

Secretary J. II. Lefevre of the Pure
Maple Sugar and Syrup Cooperative
association of Quebec was introduced
and read a very interesting paper on
| the success which has attended the as
ISOLATION he represents in its three
| years of existence. Through the eff
| forts of the association a law has been
passed prohibiting the use of the word
"maple on anything but the pure prod
uct of maple trees. The association has
succeeded in getting from the govern
ment funds by which three sugar max
| ing schools are conducted and these
are very successful.
Z. S. Brigham, commissioner of ag-
riculture, was much interested in Mr..
Lefevre's reference to the schools and
asked numerous questions as to the
methods adopted by the Canadian gov
eminent in establishing and conduct
ing them. Mr.. Lefevre explained that
the young men and boys attend the
schools from eight to 10 days each and
experts teach them the proper method
of making the pure product. The gov
eminent pays the board of those who
attend the schools. There were be-
tween 300 and / 400 visitors at one of
the schools last season. The govern
ment leases a sugar bush and furnishes
! teacher.
State Forester Halves suggested that
the association appoint a committee to
confer with the commissioner of agri-
: culture and the state forestry depart
J ment and look over the state forests
, with the idea that the state may be
J able to furnish q sugar bush in one of
its forests.

GLASS OF SALTS
CLEANS KIDNEYS
If Your Back Is Aching or Bladder
Bothers, Drink Lots of Water
and Eat Less Meat.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don t get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
your bowels clean, by flushing them
with mild, harmless salts, which re-
moves the body's urinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal activ-
ity. The function of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In "a hours they
strain from it 500 grains of acid and
waste, so we can readily understand
the vital Importance of keeping the kid
neys active.
Drink lots of water-you can t drink
too much; also get from any pharma-
cist about four ounces of Jad Salts
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast each morning for a
few days and your kidneys will act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice

stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neu-
trallze the acids in urine so it no long

The morning meeting today began at
10 o'clock. President A. A. Carleton
of West Newbury delivered his annual
address. He pointed out that in the
past the Dairymen s association and
the Sugar Makers association had
held their conventions jointedly, but
/ it was deemed best to separate them
especially as the sugar makers desired
to have their conventions held in diff,
| ferent parts of the state and the dairy
men found it necessary to hold theirs
where there was ample hotel aceommo
dations.
4 He urged that every maker of pure
Vermont maple sugar should use the
Sugar Makers association label. Sixty
per cent of the maple sugar of Vermont
is below the standard because the max
! er does not take proper care in the
manufacture. There is no other brancl
of agriculture so profitable as the ma
pie sugar branch, and it is the one th'
farmer knows the least about. The as
ISOLATION is trying to improve tn
standard and quality of the goods an,
to teach better methods.
Thousands of booklets have been is
sued, which have resulted in over 500
letters of inquiry. The state has aide
with $500 worth of advertising ant
state bulletins are being issued regard
ing the industry. The county agricul
tural agents are constantly writing tn
association to learn in what way the
can aid the sugar makers, but it
something in which the association 1t
self is none too well sehooled.
He suggested that some expert b
secured who could suggest new and in
proved methodz and teach better way
