COWBOYS WITH
GUNS PROTECT
PARKER RANCH

Cowboys OF the Parker ranch are
guarding the government road be
tween the ranch and Frank Woods
place on Hawaii Gates have been
set out across the road. and no one
is allowed to pasS II he is suspected
Of being an enemy alien or someone
who might be trying 70 spread an
thrax germs. Japanese and Chinese,
however, are allowed to 60 through
at will, II is claimed.
This is the news brought TO Homo
lulu today by J. Warner Dassell, who
returned Oh the Mauna Kea from a
vacation passed on the Big Island.
One gate has been placed across
the road where the Parker ranch al
joins the Woods property and the
other is located at the opposite END
Of the Parker holdings. Everyone
going through is forced to submit 10
inspection The cowboys are armed
with guns and ammunition, evidently
secured from the national guard aH
thorities Of the Big Island.
Dassell and his party. going by
automobile to Kawaihae, say they
were stopped and inspected. An Am
erican citizen named Bori, who runs
a garage at Hawi, was to have Joined
Dassell and party at KaWaihae. Bori
has light hair and looks like a Ger
man. He was stopped by the COW
boys and had to return to Haw1, as
they would not let him go on over
the road across the ranch. Bori Is
an American citizen by birth, his
father being a naturaiized American
citizen Of German birth. Bori him
sell was born in Oregon.
: No cases Of anthrax have yet
broken out on the Parker ranch, but
no chances are being taken, hence
the strict guard maintained. Dasseli
and his party feel that 1t is an injus-
tice to hold up white people and al
the same time, allow japanese and
Chinese to 60 through.

SCHOOL PROFIT
PLAN DISCUSSED

Judge w. H. Heen and Mrs. F. W
Macfarlane, members Of the industrt
al schools board, and frederick Ander
son, superintendent of the boys In.
dustrial school, conferred with Gov
ernor Pinkham yesterday afternoon as
to the advfsability of planting to pine
apples about 400 acres of land now
in the possession Of the boys school
at Waialea.
No decision was reached as regards
the two propositions to plant the land
that have been made to the board
one by the Hawaii Preserving Co. and
the other by q Japanese planter
Governor Pinkham was Of the opinion
that the board should wait until the
return Of Land Commissioner B. G.
Rivenburgh from the mainland. Judge
Heen and Mrs. Macfarlane, however,
have expressed themselves as being
in favor of both offers.
The Hawaii Preserving Co. has of.
fered to assist financially and other.
wise in setting out the pineapples, as
we'll as to buy the fruit for use in
it's cannery. In the opinion Of the
company, the boys school, by adopting
the company's offer, would clear about
$4,000 in five years from three crops
Of pineapples. The Japanese planter
has offered to plant the land and has
suggested division OF the proceeds.

With this as its slogan. the newly
appointed woman's committee of tn
territorial food commission met TO

The problem Of conserving the Ha
vail meat supply was also discussed
This, 1t was explained, could be done
II each family would enforce upon it
self a small curtailment of its usua
beef consumption each week. In this
respect It was suggested that eact
person eat q quarter Of pound less
Of beef each week. III.
Assuming that the production OIL
beef Is the same now 40 II was In
1915, and that the consumption is the

to avoid importation, II would be
necessary for each person to eat a
quarter Of q pound less Of beef each
week, assuming, again. that only 90
per cent Of the population eats beet
Another way to cut down on beet
II was suggested, is by using less meat
but combining It with some other
product: Mrs. Alexander offered the
suggestion that cornmeal might be
mixed with flour to conserve the sup,
ply of flour. Cornmeal, she added

of bread. -
