SHIP
GOES TO AID
THOR'SCREN
Norwegian Vessel Founders
zoo Miles From Islands;
Wireless Brings News

n RESCUE ship was despatched
| ~ from Honolulu last night to at
! tempt to find the second boat load
of shipwrecked sailors from the Nor
wegian steamer Thor which foundered
early this week about 700 miles north
and 40 miles west from these islands
Another small boat of the schooner
has already been rescued by an un.
known steamer, which wired the ma.
val authorities last night asking that
steps be taken to rescue the balance
of the crew.
Due to the censorship the name of
the vessel sent to search the north
ern Pacific for the missing Thor crew
cannot be given, but it is a govern
ment patrol boat which was secured
by Raymer Sharp, acting collector of
customs, after he had ascertained it
was impossible to get a vessel from
the Inter-Island or the Oahu Shipping
Co. The censorship also probably ac'
counts for the name of the vessel of
which picked up 15 men of the
shipwrecked crew not being given
in the wireless telling of the founder
ing of the Norwegian vessel. III
Fifteen members of the Thor crew
were rescued yesterday, according to
a wireless which was received last
night by the acting collector. When
these men were found they had tray-
eled $50 minis in southerly direc-
ton from the wreck toward Homo
lulu. =.. -. .:.-. @..&
Maritime records show that the
Thor was last reported as having ar
rived at San Francisco on October Is
from a voyage to Manila and Hong
kong. This fairly well established the
belief that sne was bound for the
Orient again when she foundered.
The Thor's position at the time Of
the wreck is just north of the trade
belt, and in the course of variable
winds. She was too far south to have
been following the great circle route.
In the crew of Is men rescued
there was included the captain, two
mates, the engineer, steward and the
purser.5 -. ~. "
The 1917 shipping guide compiled
in July of 1916 gives Capt. o. Hansen
as master of the vessel. The steamer
was owned by the Wilhelmsens COM
pany of Norway. .rfer gross tonnage
was 4739; length 359.9: width 52.6 and
depth 24.7. She was built in Stock
holm, Sweden, in 1907. H." n

PUSH COTTON IN
WEEVIL TERRITORY
J. c. Pridrnore, Aqronomist.

Inquiry-"How would you fertilize
to beat the boil weevil to the cotton?"
In growing cotton under boil weevil
conditions, several factors must be
given consideration. The land should
be well drained and we'll supplied with
vegetable matter. Good seed Of a va
riety adapted to the locality should
be chosen, and, of course, a variety
that will mature it's fruit quickly and
resist wilt should be planted. Fer
tilize literally, and properly cultivate.
On the heavier soils, such as the red
clays and clay loans, the use Of fer
tilizer carrying 10 per cent to II per
cent phosphoric acid, 3 to 4 per cent
nitrogen and small per cent Of pot
ash, if it can be had, should be used.
Apply at the rate Of 250 to 400 pounds
per acre. On lighter soils in which
nitrogen, phosphorus and potash are
all usually deficient, fertilizer carry
ing all three elements is desirable.
Use 10 to II per cent phOsphoric acid,
3 or 4 per cent nitrogen and l or 2
per cent potash, at the rate Of 800 to
400 pounds to the acre.
