SHORT MILLION
POUNDS in 1917
Lack of Pickers Compe|s Plant
ers to Cut Down Shipments;
No Advance in Price

A difference Of over a million
pounds of Hawaiian coffee exported
during the fiscal years Of 1916 and
1917, is shown in the reports OF the
United States customs department,
compiled up to and including June.
Complete reports to date have not
yet been tabulated. The expectation
of island coffee to the United States
during the year ending June. 1916,
amounted ITO 2,252,364 pounds. The
valuation was placed at $343,S29. The
expectation to the mainland for this
year has amounted to only 1881, C3j
pounds, with the valuation placed at
$297,922.
Persons closely in touch with the
Kona industry declare that although
the weather conditions have been
ideals a shortage of labor has cut
down the output The warm weather
in Kona has permitted the planters to
dry the coffee in the sun without re-
sorting to artificial means. Lack Of
pickers, however, has compelled the
planters to cut down their exports.
While the yearly reports show a
big decrease in expectation, the re-
port for June, 1917, as compared with
June of last year, shows large in
crease in both production and valua-
tion. Last year the total output for
mainland consumption reached S3, ISL
pounds, valued at $12,997. This year,
the June figures reached 1jS,109
pounds, worth $24,57l.
Exports to foreign countries for the
year ending June, 1917, amounted to
5S4,749 pounds, valued at $95. 100. Most
of the foreign shipments of kona cot.
fee go directly to Manila.
Kona coffee is apparently the only
food article that has not been affected
by war prices. In 1915 island coffee
was selling for 1874 to II cents a
pound. Last year the San Francisco
market quoted island coffee at IA
cents, while this year it is quoted at
IA or 141s cents. This steadiness in
price is explained by the fact that
mainland coffee buyers demand island
coffee for blending purposes. Brazil
liam coffee is flooding the mainland
markets, but Kona still holds its own
in the blending marts
There is apparently as steady a de
mand for the island coffee from the
Philippines as there was before the
war. kona planters have some large
stocks of higher grade coffee picked
last year that they are holding for
better prices.

U. S. MUST RETAIN GOLD
TO PAY OWN TRADE DEBTS

The embargo on the expectation OF
gold which has puzzled Honolulu fl
nanciers ever since it was announced
by President Wilson on September
10, was explained by Clarence Fl
Cooke of the Bank of Hawaii this
morning.
Americas supply of gold, which
had increased from something over
two billions to $3,100,O0O,000 during
the early years of the war, began a
rather serious decrease" said Mr.
Cooke. This was due first because of
our loan to the Allies, and also be.
cause foreign companies who are sell.
ing goods to the Allies now collect
their trade bills in New York instead
of Petrograd, Paris and London. 1t
was necessary. therefore, to keep our
gold in order to pay our own trade
debts, hence the embargo"

SOME HINTS IN SEASON
By E. VAN BENTHuYsEN.

Give your garden crops just the fer tilizer they prefer. Remember that plants furnish us with edible leaves or stalks, flourish if given nitrogen; when the fruit, root kernel or bulb, is the edible part dose with ashes, potash or phosphoric acid.
 Keep an eye on the hotbed when the sun shines brightly Too much heat will make the plants weak and spindly.
 Get the brush for the peas and poles for the beans when it is too wet to work in the garden.
 If you have no hotbed, SOW seeds in shallow boxes Placed in the south window. Provide drainage, and water them when the soil feels dry to the touch.
 Do not blow too early in the spring Wait until the ground is dry. Follow with the harrow until the soil is finely pulverized.
 Let the rows run north and south !; this gives the most sun exposure.

oLD-FAsHIoNED HIGH BOOSTS
sprained Legs, splinters or Gravel in Feet and Other Troubles Are
 Sure to Follow.

Too many poultry keepers yet build old-fashioned high roosts. The tree shelter instinct still induces every fowl to fight for place on the highest of the roosts. Few you will notice, want the low. For the large heavy breeds, high roosts mean sprained legs, splinters or gravel in the feet, and much suffering because of jump ing from high roosts.
 Turkeys often show up with bum- ble-foot or other kinds of 1ameness because they roost so high. One can also make the roosts too small.
 Chickens are often lamed by giving them roosts that allow the toes to go clear around, and sink the claws in the soft part of the sole. This is sure to cause sores, or at least tender feet.

making turns. Take another eight foot plank and saw off two feet for a brace co and spike this brace at right angles to the longer plank. It may be necessary to let out the reach so that the outer end of the brace will not be too far forward on the moldboard CD. The brace should be raised an inch or two so that the snow which falls i'll the triangle will spill out readily. When spiked together the blow should have a comparatively small spread, say four feet. 4 wide spread means too heavy a drag and unnecessary labor. To hitch the blow to the bob use two clevises and a ring attached to the end of the left side of the blow (point marked B. In order to do effective work man should ride the blow.
 One distinctive feature of the plow's construction lies in the fact that the left side of the blow is two feet longer than the right side.

CAUSE OF TURKEY FAILURES
Among Other Reasons Assigned Is That of Improper Feeding-close
 Confinement Hurts.

Improper feeding, combined with close confinement, has been the cause of many failures in turkey raising. Given free range on the average farm, the poults can easily pick up their own living, and one light feed a day for the purpose of inducing them to, come in at night is sufficient. If the mother hen is confined to coop and the poults allowed to run in and out, three times a day is often enough to feed and very little should be given at a time. The poults should always be ready to eat: if given all they will clean up several times a day, indiges- tion will be the result. If there is little or no feed outside the coop for the poults to pick up, then they should be fed about five times a day, feeding

ing through the alimentary canals of buzzards. Anthrax spores are not de- stroyed in the digestive tracts of other carrion-feeding animals, as the dog, cat, hog, chicken. or opossum.
 It is true that buzzards may carry the germs of anthrax or other stock diseases on their plumage, feet, or bills, and thus distribute them; but all the other animals just mentioned may similarly carry disease germs on the surfaces of their bodies, as may also flies, domestic pigeons and other poul- try, horses, mules, and cattle, not to mention members of the human fam fly. In fact at the same time that steps are being taken greatly to : duce or exterminate wild bird-tLe buzzard-which may possibly play a minor part in the transmission of an- thraX, farmers are harboring several domestic animals that have far greater possibilities as spreaders of the dis ease. The fact that anthrax may be carried by flies is more than sufficient to explain the most severe epidemics.

Obviously, it is unfair to atten,p, place the blame for general disson,, v nation of stock diseases. on the haa gard. Considering the multitnda as ways in which these diseases nav spread, it cannot be doubted that stoae diseases would be as widely distribn4 ed as now if turkey buzzards waaa eliminated, as has been proposed Wbos amounts to proof of this is the faat that hog cholera at times is yirnloat and seriously destructive in regiona where there are few or no turkey bsa cards. as in certain northern stafo. and Canadian provinces.

GOOD ROADS
sNOWPLoW IS EASILY MADE
Effective Device for Clearing High ways in Winter Can Be Put To-
 gether by Any Farmer.

A farmer who is q firm believer ir good roads in winter as well as in sum. mer, could not get any satisfaction from his town superintendent when snow blocked the six and one-haf mile way to town, writes Laurence ". Gris wold in Farm Journal. So instead of going to the town-father and bawling him out, the farmer knocked together a snowplow and started out. The work done with the blow that day made 1t easy for q team to trot all the way to town and not get in trouble when it was forced to turn out for an. other rig. And the job was over be. fore a gang of men with shovels could fairly have started.
 Directions for making the blow are as follows: Take a 2 by 8 inch plank, eight feet in length GA in the accom-. panying picture), and use 1t for the side which is to travel flush against the side of the bob runner. A ten inch plank might work, but 12-inch one would not because it could not swing ahead of the rear bob when

REASONABLE WORK

Plant your trees and shrubs and hardy plants as early as possible while vegetation is inactive. Evergreen trees can be planted later than deciduous trees, but the earlier all the work is done the better.
 Do not expose the roots of the trees or shrubs to be planted. Keep them covered with cool, damp earth until ready to plant.
 Innumerable trees die every year for lack of care when they are received. If you are not ready to plant them when they arrive take them from the box or package they come in and heel them in. Keeling consists of digging trench in any convenient spot in the garden. Set the roots in the trench and cover the roots with earth, firming the soil around them.
 Dig Ae holes carefully where the tree or Shrub is to be planted.
 Put stake where you intend plant ing and write the name on the stake.
 Work the soil well in around the roots and water well.

 . FAC!L1S
RoUP REMEDY FOR CHICKENS
Good Plan to See That Curtains or Windows Are Down and Every
 thing in Proper Shape.

The habit of visiting the poultry house after the birds have gone to roost during the winter months is good one. After the water vessels have been emptied to keep them from freezing overnight, it is a good plan to see that the curtains or windows are down and everything is in shape.
 If the grain feed for the following morning is scattered in the litter the birds will be busy and active as soon as they come off the roosts. This is far better for them than standing round an hour or so in the cold morn- ing air waiting for their feed.
 Before leaving the house listen care fully for wheezing or heavy breath ing. This is the first indication of colds, roup, and similar diseases, and if detected in time a serious outbreak may be prevented.

FIX ROAD FOR AUTOMOBILES
Radical Change in Treatment of Hiqh- ways That Bear Brunt of Travel
 Is Suggested.

The suggestion made by Francis M. Hugo, secretary of state of New York, that radical change is called for in the treatment of the roads that bear the main brunt of automobile travel, must strike laymen, at least as highly important. He points out that only a small part of the width of these roads IS actually used by most of the vehi- cfes which pass over them, and "yet when the road has to be repaired or renewed the whole width has to be dealt with, for mere patching in most cases cannot be regarded as the most practical method of maintenance" Ac- cordingly, he proposes the use of pre- pared tracks made of special ma terial, continuous and smooth in char acter and sufficiently wide" which would ''bear nearly all the traffic and would lengthen the life of the road ten times its present period.

WHITEWASH GOOD FOR FARM
Formula Submitted by Expert of Ok. Iahoma Station-Especially Use
 fuI on Walls and Fences.

The following formula of a white wash containing lime, skim milk and salt is submitted by Dr. Charles K. Francis, chemist at the Oklahoma ex- pertinent station at Saltwater:
 Stake one bushel of good quicklime with not more than 12 gallons of wa ter. Stake the lime and keep the yes sel covered until steam ceases to rise, stirring occasionally to prevent scorch- ing. Prepare q second mixture con taining two pounds common salt and one pound zine sulphate in two gallons of boiling water. Pour this into the slaked lime and stir in two gallons of skim milk. Stir vigorously.
 This makes an excellent weather proof white wash, suitable for walls and fences.
