wonderful, while the abundant foliage
OF the trees makes the scenery lovelier
than ever. Miss Louise CHAMPION,

Cipal school at St Louis, and Miss
Sarah Bennett, who has come from
South Dakota to make Moline her
home, were guests.
All were seated about a large

They REFUSE TOttB7

At periods in most chlldrens lives
theyfail to relish their meals and refuse
to eat even the delicacies prepared to
tempt their appetites. They lack am
bition, and growth seems mpeded,
which causes anxiety and worry. 81:
To compel them to eat is a grave
mistake, because nutrition is impaired.
Healthful exercise in fresh air and sun
shine is important, but equally import
ant is a spoonful of SCOTS Emulsion
three times a day to feed the tissues
and furnish food-energy to improve
their blood, aid nutrition and sharpen
their appetites.
The highly concentrated medicinal
food in SCOTS Emulsion supplies the
very elements children need to build up
their strength. They relish Scott Sits
free from alcohol.

PINEAPPLE DAY
ON BIRTHDAY OF
king KALAKAUA?

The date for Hawaiian Pineapple
Day this year, Set tentatively by the
Hawaiian Packers Association for No
vember Is, may be changed to Novem-
Der 16, so that it may fall on the ami
versary of the birthday of the late
King Kalakaua. @.:...' 3d.. ....,.
The Hawaii Promotion Committee
has suggested the change to the pine
apple association, inasmuch as con-
siderable more publicity for the day
can be gained all over the mainland
by combining it with the natal day of
Rex -. ~.
In the opinion of Secretary Taylor
of the Promotion Committee there are
unlimited possibilities in combining
the two dates from purely publicity
standpoint, as sentimental appeal in
any reference to the late King Kala'
kaua, he believes, will hold the atten-
tion of the mainlanders, whom the
committee expects to interest in Pine
apple Day.
As the sugar industry and many
other industries made tremendous
Roadway during the reign of King
Kalakaua, this fact can be made OF
great service in telling the story OF
the development of the pineapple il
dustry. ~. -.

That large number of Honolulans

VISITOR finds
Tacoma Banker Tells of Con-
ditions Here and on Main
land Before Leaving

Hundreds OF people from Tacoma
and other Washington cities would
come to Honolulu every year If there
we're suitable travelling facilities.
This statement was made this morn
ing by John S. Baker of Tacoma short.
" before he left for home on the
Wilhelmiua. Mr.. Baker is president
OF the Fidelity Trust Co. OF Tacoma.
and has been on a vacation for about
n month a, the Moana Hotel with Mrs,
Baker His company is the Oldest OF
it's kind in Washington, and Mr.. Baker
rs one OF the leading businessmen OF
the coast.
1T is too bad that there are not bet
ter direct competitions between Ia
coma and Honolulu" declared MT.
Baker, for if there were Tacoma PEG
pie would flock here by the hundreds
every winter. In some of the winter
resorts in California the Washington
people often outnumber the California
residents and the same would be true
here il coming was as easy. 1t would
give the islands one more line OF
direct connection with" the mainland.
. Mr.. Baker predicted that direct
steamers would not be put on, how
ever, until sufficient freight, moving
steadily, could be assured tile trans
portation people.
Business Conditions Better. ....
Speaking OF business, conditions in
the northwest the banker said they
were better in the last few months
than for years. When asked why, he
replied that IL came from the general
prosperity wave which had spread all
over the United States.
The deposits in our bank now are
a half million more than they have
ever been before" stated Mr. Baker.
A question of who's going to be
the next PRESIDENT" didn't stump MIR.
Baker. -. r.. ..~-.@.. ..
Expects Republican President. T.
IF he were to be elected by the
state of Washington he would prob
ably have big and prominent teeth,"
laughed the banker, but Hughes Is
running strong, too. Wilson is just as
strong as he ever was with the Demo
Gratis, but there aren't enough of the
latter in the United States to elect
the professor unless the Republicans
have a bad split Letween now and
election time. The Grand Old Party
outnumbers the Democrats three to
one in Washington"
Mr.. Baker was here 25 years ago as
guest of Admiral Sampson. He has
been trying to get back ever since,
he says, and will be back again. soon.
Although there have been many
material changes and improvements
in Honolulu since was here before"
he said, sit is still the same delightful
place that ere zone who comes here

mands it made the demands less than
was at first intended, so that the milk
dealers would be able to pay the in
creased price and still make a big
profit without raising the price on
the consumer.
Eve knew what profits the big
companies were making, and we
knew they could pay us the $1.55 a
hundred pounds we wanted and still
make much more money than the av-
erage business man. said a member
of the Milk Producers assn. There
is no excuse for a raise in the price
of milk to Chicago consumers"
But the public must buy milk. Even
if it is sold for Is cents a quart milk
would have to be bought.
The dealers know this. The public
will not stand for a raise, however,
unless there is an apparent cause.
When the farmers boost the price a
little, the dealers figure they can get
away with another cent-a-qUart raise
on the consumer, and they slap on
the raise and explain it was necessary
to their profits.
The increase the farmers ask
amounts to seVen-tenths of cent
quart. If the dealers raise the retail
price a cent a quart they will be max
ing a profit of three-tenths of a cent
a quart, in addition to the big profit
they are already supposed to be get
ting.
It was reported today that Bow
man would sign with the farmers to-
night.
The Milk Producers assn today
offered to furnish free milk to hos
pitfalls and homes where there are ba-
bies and inValids if the health dept
would see that it was delivered.

was asked what he intended to do
about this offer he said:

when you consider our demands"
said R. w. SherbUrne of the prOdUC-
ers' assn, you must remember the
price of all cattle feeds have gone
up, while the prices we have gotten
for our products have not advanced
in years. We have been selling milk
at the same old figure, while con-
densed milk companies are getting
so per cent more than at the begin
ming of the war. Other milk pro-
ducts have gone up in proportion"
Petitions for injunctions were filed
in county and federal courts to stop
the farmers from cOnniVing to keep
their good milk from the diaries
which will not pay the prices asked.
The strike is the result of long
continued efforts on the part of the
dealers of the city to force down the
price of raw milk. Conditions were
so bad that many farmers fed their
milk to the pigs rather than hand it
over to the city dealers at their
prices.
The farmers organized themselves
and, when their contracts ran out, re-
fused to renew at the old prices.
Then war started.
