The means are at hand There is land enough if

For four months the Star Bulletin has carried on
territorytwide experiment with school and home
gardens. This garden contest has been a remark
able eye-opener, not only TO the teachers and pupils,
but even TO the agricultural experts here-an eye,
opener in proving how quickly boys and girls can
be trained TO raise edible and marketable produce.
As result of this contest, not less than 5000 boys
and girls in Hawaii are becoming producers-are
becoming practical gardeners. Twice that number
are interested in the gardening.
Today. as result of the splendid response of the
schools Hawaii has the foundation laid for terri
Drumming energies to agriculture on a far larger
scale than has been done. ~-.
And this is only faint indication of what Ha-
waii can do in home production. The children have
done ii in their spare time. They gave up play, in
many cases. TO work in their gardens.
In Honolulu, number of publc-spirited women
are planning TO learn home gardening 1t is ex
cellen move. and il may be far necessary than
now appears.
So there are two ways for Hawaii to help right
now in national emergency. one phase of which
is the growing cost of living The first is by elm

household planning 10 make food 60 far.
The second is by agriculture. And this requires

MAUI IS WORRIED
OVER ITS GUARD

fSberial Star, BnIleTin Correxrondeneel
WAILUkU, Maui. April Con
! sternation of very real kind exists
On Maui this week over the prospect
that the entire 3rd Regiment of the
national guard viii be o.dered TO
Oahu for an indefinite period. The
news came in the fern OF a private
wireless message to Col. Frank Bald
win, on Tuesday, advising that the
regiment was to be modified near
Honolulu within few days. A bur
ried conference OF the regimental staff
was Immediately called with the re
suit that Col Baldwin aid Maj. H.
3. Penhallow Of the guard, and Capt.
r. p. Harbold. U. S. A, reluisitioned
the Kahului Railroad Company's pow
er sampan Makaiwa and made the
trip to Honolulu Tuesday night to
confer with General Strong, depart
ment commander.
1t was hoped that 1t might be pos
sible to have the Maui guardsmen
modified here on Maui, but that hope
was dashed after the conference with
Gen. Strong and department staff Off
GERS On Wednesday If the Hawaii
national guard is modified, it will De

Paralysis for Maui
If the announced mobilization plan
is carried out it means practically the
paralyZing of business. on Maui and
probably to equal extent on the other
regiment is differed almost entirely
by men who hold the higher executive
positions on plant atiops and in other
lines of business ON Maui. Col Bald
win, manager Of the Hawaiian Com
mercial &. Sugar Company, and Maj.
ii. B.. Penhallow, manager of the Wal
luku Sugar COMPANY will nave to
leave, together with a large part, or
their. office force, field lnnas, and
other, upper-class employees.
Practically every officer On Maui
agrees that it was promised at the
time the regiment was recruited ~
to its present strength some year
and hall ago, that service would be
limited to duty here on Maui. AS
one officer put it yesterday: rs it
likely that the business men of Maui
would have voluntarily tied themselves
up together with the whole OF the
islands industries, as we are now,
had it not been On "a definite under
standing that they would not be called
outside of this county for duty? II
isn't that any one has any idea of
Sinking a duty. Weren't a natter of
our being really needed there isn't
a nan who would step an instant to
think about his business. But we
can't see that there is any great need
as yet" ii. 49,.
Plantations to Pay Men -
1t was stated yesterday that the
sugar factors in Honolulu have already
taken such steps, as possible to take
care tof the situation, and that they
have fagreed to continue the lfnen vino
