would not be selling their fowls for
meat at Is cents per pound live
weight if they felt that by keeping
them they could realize profit dur
ing the fall and winter. AS a matter
of fact it is only expert poultrymen
with every advantage of equipment
and well-bred stock who are able to
make good profit with the present
cost Of raw materials and labor.
It costs $40 per month to feed 100
hens, and labor and overhead
charges would increase this amount
to $50. The average production OF
fowls during November, according to
estimates from several agricultural
colleges, is Ii eggs per day from 100
hens. This would be a total for the
month of $50 eggs, or little less than
80 dozen. Most producers are re-
ceiving 60 cents per dozen for their
eggs at the door at the present time,
which would make the average total
income from 100 hens $3.50.
These figures prove cenclusively
that the average farmer is losing
1920 per month on every 100 hens
during November in spite of rs cents
per dozen to the consumer, and the
anenths of October and jDecember
would also shew a loss although not

Eggs.

At the present time fresh eEgs are
selling at retail for more than ever
before in the history Of this country
and many consumers are shouting
graft and unreasonable profits for the
producer. Although it must lie adj
mitted that eggs are not worth IS
cents per dozen at retail for food as
compared with milk, flour, potatoes
and meat, they are nevertheless a
necessity for children and invalids be-
cause Of the digestibility and high
mineral content. There is also a call
for eggs from people who can afford
to pay these prices to such an extent
that the present demand far exceeds
the supply. This is one legitimate
reason for the excessively high prices.
Hundreds Of farmers all over the
country have sold all or a large num-
Der Of their fowls during the past two
months because of the high cost of
feed, and as a result Of this there are
many thousand less egg producing
fowls in existence to-day than in pre-
yious years at this season.

WAR ROMANCE LEARNED HERE
Beryl Hunter Jones Welded to Officer

A war romance Of striking interest.
in which one of the principals is well
known in Honolulu, has been learned
of by the friends here of Miss Beryl
Hunter-Jones, who, for two years re-
sided in this city.
On January Of this year Miss Hun
ter-Jones was married at Folkstone.
England, to Capt. Lawrence V. NJ.
Cosgrove of the 9Th Canadian Howit-
ger Brigade, now at the west front
in France The proposal Of marriage
was written in a trench on the torn
battlefront, and it was in a trench
also that the stalwart Canadian re-
ceived the answer Yes" to his ardent
plea.
News of the marriage came to the
brides mother. Mrs. NJ. W. Hunter
Jones, in Toronto by cable. The rO-
nance, according to the news learned
by friends of the family here, began
in Toronto a year ago, the, day before
Capt. Cosgrove's regiment sailed for
Europe. Really. however, the love
story had it's beginning a good many
years before. when Larry" Cosgrove
and the girl were school friends to-
gether Eight years ago Mrs. Hunter
jones and her daughters, Beryl and
Crichton, went travelling, coming to
Hawaii and remaining some time in
Honolulu. Mrs. Hunter-Jones was the
leader Of the Home Of Truth" here
Miss Beryl returned to Honolulu in
August, 1914, and en- the evening Of
her return Capt. Cosgrove was a guest
at her mothers home. That was the
signal for reviving love, according to
the Toronto Daily Star. After he had
reached France Capt Cosgroye cor
responded with the girl and from a
dugout on the battlefield of Festubert
wrote the letter of proposal After
receiving a favorable answer he went
to England shortly after Christmas
and Miss Hunter-Jones reached Liv-
erpool on the morning Of January 8.
A cablegram from England to the
Toronto Star says that the marriage
was unique in many particulars. Es-
corted by the brigade officers, the
bridegroom rode to the church on a
gun-carriage, handcuffed to Lieut.. Kill
gcur, his best man. During the cere-
mony the six black horses attached
to the gun carriage were replaced

TIGHTENING AND
THUNDER SHOW
Power OF GOD

Taking as his topic Thunder and
Lightning. In the, Bihls. and Out" and
basing his address on the electrical
storm Of last Tuesday night, Rev. l.. l.,
Loofbourow, pastor Of the Methodist
church. last night told his congrega-
ton that, both In and out Of the Bible,
the lightning shows the power OF the
creator. t1AF III =. 3. -... !. . ~
The pastor read and explained the
18th psalm which described a thun-
derstorm coming out Of the Mediter-
ranean sea, striking Mount Lebanon
and making the giant cedars Of that
great mountain tremble. This psalm,
the pastor said, is one Of the most
vivid descriptions to be found in the
Bible OF a storm such as Honolulu ex-
perienced last week. Christ use1
lighting to show the uncertainty Of
life, and the Bible uses II as an Illus
tration OF the punishment OF sin, ex-
planned the pastor. The destruction OF
Sodom by the great electrical storm
could never be forgotten by the He
brews, he added. .. H..
