FOOD PURCHASE DECLINE.

The announcement by the govern ment that food purchases by the European nations in America have been showing q marked decline is peculiar in view of the fact that notwithstanding that, food prices ill the United States have been steadily rising.
 The excuse that much food was being shipped to Europe was fine reason for those controlling the food supply to increase it's domestic price, and it will remain after the reason for that rise has vanished.
 Tobacco increased in price when the Spanish American war tax was placed upon it, but long after that war and the tax were forgotten, to- bacco still carried the increased charge due to 1t.
 So with food. Give the food trust a reason for an increase once in while; not much of an excuse, just . little bit of a one, and they are go- ing to keep on stretching the price to the maximum long after them selves and the easy going public Of consumers have forgotten why it was increased at all. That's the system Gouge as much as you can, for pro fits are the life of trade, and God hates a dead one.
 It may be held that the Food Trust has no particular monopoly of this policy and that is certainly correct.
 In fact, it is the system that every one stands for: Profits and profit making prosperity. It comes from labor and because labor endures this sort of thing with relatively small murmur, we may take it that it is entirely satisfactory.
 The periodical kicks and grumb- ling that is recorded merely add a zest to the little game, and even a good camel grunts when the burden is placed upon him just because ol the fact that he is a beast of burden.

PINEAPPLE GROWERS
RENEW THEIR CAMPAIGN

The Hawaiian pineapple Gamers have
recently Inauguratcd an EXTENDED ad-
vertising campaign even though many
Of the companies have already sold
heavily against the ncN pack. One Of
the smaller companies has already con
tractcd sixty per cent Of It's 1916 crop.
From all quarters the news comes that
the demand fpr9Hawaiian pinraPples is
steadily Increasing.
What the packers expect TO gain
through advertising is permanent
market. They are trying to reach the
consumer rather than the iobber
and wholesaler at whose mercy they
have been during the last two years.
With the jobbing influence more or less
eliminated as it will be if the demand
comes directly from the consumer, thu
position of growers and Gamers her"
in Hawaii will become stabilized at it
never has been before. A period Of
exceptional prosperity is assured for
this industry.

thrr particulars of the Vladi vostok fire
it Is learned that II broke out at three
clock May rs, in one OF the tent de.
pots for war supplies with which every
open space in Vladivostok is flied at
present. There were several miles of
t"nt dcpots in the vicinity of the place
where the FIRE broke ont, and most Of
these contained raw cotton. A strong
northeastetiy wind was blowing and the
flames spread TO the adjoining tents with
alarming rapidity, Some of these tents
were stocked With such infiammable
goods as olive oil, tar, and rubber, and
the ignition Of these materials greatly
helPed the, spread Of the flames.
An the available naval aud military
forces Of the port were called out 10
combat the fire. Tn addition to these
several hundred Chinese and Korean
lnborers were hurriedly employed 10

The paticular feature of the Trus-
colt calandria is the vertical lateral
tubes, incljUed inner tubes and the
large open steam space along the outer
edge Of the pan. The claim made for
his invention is that it increases the
heating surface without calling for
any increase, in steam pressures, and
provides for a perfect circulation.

mail Special to The Advertiser

HIIO, June 25-The insistency which
is being displayed by those who are en-
deavoring to demonstrate to the mari.
time interests of Hilo the advisability
of Utilizing the Kuhio Bay wharf aug,
urs well for the ultimate success of
their efforts. The various reports which
have been made by Harbormaster
MOsher, backed up by the appeals of
Superintendent of Public Works Forbes,
have so far failed to convince the own
ers of ships using the harbpr of Hilo
that the wharf is absolutely safe. but
Captain MOsher and Supcrintende ut
Forbes are not resting in despair.
Making Final Test
The latest move, which promises t."
demonstrate beyond the slightest doubt
the absence of any undertow at the
wharf, is one which has just been made
by Engineer Willard representing the
United States Government on the
breakwater job and Captain Mosher.
1t consists Of the placing of half-a
dozen undertow tests down alongside
the wharf at depths ranging from six
feet to thirty-fVe feet. These tests
consist of blocks of wood which will
be weighted sufficiently to keep them
submerged at depths of six, nine
twelve, twenty, thirty and thirty-fve
feet below the surface OF the water
and they will be kept in their rcspec
tive positions for period sufficiently
long TO prove beyond cavil whether
there is any undertow or not. The
tests which have been made by the
harb"rmnster in the past have con
WINGED him that no undcrtow exists
to-day; these new tests carried out
by Engineer willard and Captain
Mosher should settle the question in a
scientific manner.
