GUARD
NAY go INTO
CAMP ON OAHU
Plan to Bring 1000 Outside
Guardsmen to Honolulu to.
Join Local Troops IN En-.
campment Middle of October

n ANNOUNCEMENT was made this
~ morning at headquarters OF the
~ National Guard that plans are
now under consideration for bring
ing to the Island of Oahu practically
the entires guard organization Of the
other islands to unite with the local
regiment in general encampment
about the middle of October. 3
Final decision in the matter has
not been reached and will not be I'm.
til the middle of the coming week,
but local guard authorities are work
ing hard on the plan and the officers
of all three outside organizations
have wirelessed their desire to CO.
operate. s..... s. + J
II the project now under way is
carried out as hoped it will mean the
bringing here for two weeks en-
campment of between 1900 and 1000
outside guardsmen. These would join
with the local regiment, making ap-
proximately 1000 guardsmen in camp
together.
, The present plans cali for 10 days
of regular encampment life and five
days of rifle practise in the Punch
bowl range. This will be the first
time in the history of the territory
that so many guardsmen have been
assembled at one time, and the spirit
Of cooperation it would inspire would
be far-reaching, 1t is believed.
Transportation for the visitors is
one of the big problems, of course,
but the Inter Island Steam Naviga-
ton Company has been consulted in
the matter and is now ar work on it.
It is probable that boat schedules
win be arranged to make the entire
circuit of the three outside islands
One boat each will go around Kauai
and Maui, picking Up the guardsmen,
while on Hawaii two boats would
probably be employed-one for the
Hamakua side and one on the Kona
side. .'-.<.s
The expenses of the undertaking
are~o one Of the most important items.
The figures to ascertain this are

rected. along the right lines for this
territory. We thought that It should
take over large tracts Of land and
demonstrate to the planters what
can be done in the various lines OF
agriculture, instead Of telling them
what they ought to grow, what TO
add to the soil. what crops do best
and what food has the most Galleries
Of heat and energy in 1t.
aThe commission has q wonderful
chance of taking over such a tract
of land at Keanakolu, and demon.
strating agricultural enterprises by
conducting the place as an expert
ment station, placing men on the
land and giving them commission
on their production. Once the place
was shown to be an ideal farming
district and that farming was q sue

getting the land. opened out into

areas as the homestead tracts of
Waimea and Ahuloa. and perform the
following duties: I.
Il. Tell the planters what crops to
grow at a definite time and place 30
that the crop production would be
evenly distributed and produced and
so that no over-production Of one
crop could arise
"2. Test the soil, determine what
should be added, and then send the
planter the necessary fertilizer al
ready mixed, instead Of telling him
what he ought to add now, What
later, and so on. .e~..@ =. 80
''3. Pay him so much for his crop
under a written guarantee OF mini
mum prices, fixed by legislation, as
is done in England.
Il. Pay him the price guaranteed
of the sale Of the produce
below the price set. Under this sys-
tenn there would be continuous, sys-
tematized, distributed and controlled
production according to the demand

WRITERS EMPLOYED,

What a difference in baseball writ

days the players are gently kidded.
Thirty years ago they were pounded

extracts-names altered out of respect
for the glorious dead.
why does the Cincinnati club per
sist in standing by the listless and
dissfpated Leon Geux? Surely his
ridiculous attempts at pitching,
, coupled with his attempt to consume
all the beer north of the Rhine should
by this time have been dealt with
as they deserve"
Frog Jamsay, our great lefthands

or else threw the game. After the
fourth inning he was replaced by
Honsky Skitt, who is at least sober
and honest, and HonslIy stopped the
run-getting."
"A disgracefuI row took place in
Paddy Whack's infamous saloon last
night, involving several members of
the Brooklyn and Cincinnati clubs
Con Kavley. the Brooklyn catcher,
was attacked by Eddie Ginspeed, an
other catcher of the same club, and
seizing Ginspeed by the ankles threw
him TO the floor with such force that
the unfortunate players neck was al
most broken. Ten minutes later Whac-
ko Giiligan. of the Reds, assaulted
little Bud Clicker. of Brooklyn, and
striking him a cOwardlly blow while
his back was turned laid him uncon-

What is the matter with Black
