40 FUEL HOGS. PLEASE.

The city OF Alma is facing the
worst fuel famine ia its history. one
SO bad that no one is able to get
more than enough fuel for immedi-
ate needs. and there is looming
possibility that there viii not be
enough fuel for every home in the
city should sudden cold snap come
at this time
So FAR the weathcr has been such
that much fuel has been conserved,
Dul 1t vii not continue. More fuel
srust be used when cold weather
comes if Alma's homes are to con
tinue TO be warm This means that
every home in the city will need
coal. 1t means that everyone in the
city must secure only enough coal
for immediate needs if there is 10 be-
enough for all
Alma is now in position where
she needs none OF that species COM
monty known as the hog, or in this
case. the coal hog. BY hogging coal
at this time some person is certain
TO curtai the needs Of another and
probably cause suffering
II may come i'm this way to home
where there are little babies OF ten
del years. it may come IN home
where there are gray hairs which
Should be honored and kept b bom sur-
fering. if the coal hog enters Alma

Isle dpvefnor. the Commanding general, the

get the use Of piece Of land, to plant vegetables
as patriotic duty 50 that there may be no short
age Of food supply in the Islands in ships are
taken off the California route, or Of other emer.

The adyice TO plant is sound, and the sugges-
ton appears to havesbeen accepted in good faith
for on every hand we see and hear that planting
is being done or prepared for
AS to those who are planting for their own use
or incidental to other business, the policy is sound
from every standpoint. A good supply. Of vege-
tables at reasonable cost will be secured by the
planter with fair prospect Of disposing Of the in
cidental surplus without loss or even at small
profit. If there IS loss, the investment involved
is small and will not embarrass the planter.
The case is entirely different, however, with the
homesteader or small planter who depends on the
sale Of his crops for his living
AS to these people, II their crops can be sold at
fair price and at minimum cost Of marketing
they will be ahead OF the game otherwise they
are liable to be ruined
II is well known that the local demand is SO
small that under normal conditions, it takes only
small amount OF surplus to break the market
1t is all right to ask the homesteader to be pa
triotic All Of should be patriotic ,but it is I'M
fair to ask the homesteader to be patriotic to a
greater degree than the other members of the com
munity
Unless the homesteader--the man who depends
upon the sale Of his crop for his living assured
of market for his produce, the general acceptance
Of the advice which has been given amounts to an
assurance that he viii have glutted market for

The Follling Of Waikiki
Beach

yXTAIKIKI BEACH is a territorial asset.
wv Anything which diminishes its attractive
ness or value is injury not only to the adjacent
lot owners and bathers, but to the community at
large This proposition is SO elementary that its
bare statement would seem to be sufficient to gain
the assent and cooperation. of every one 1t is a
surprising fact however, that number OF lot own
ers and occupiers make practise Of dumping their
rubbish and debris upon the beach. Even tin cans
and bottles are SO disposed Of 1t goes without
saying that such action spos the bathing and is
exceedingly injurious to the reputation 81 the
beach as a resort
II would seem as though the present law against
committing public nuisance would be sufficient 10
cope with this particular case, for it is hard to
conceive Of any act that is more of a public
nuisance than the one complained Of

Local Groceries Report Tremen-

Popular Rush, But Potato

Tuesday will see the breaking Of the
seed famine, according to the hopes Of
the large grocery establishments Of Ho-
nolulu whose managers stated yester.
day that the past week has seen more
seed packets sold than for any similar
period in the history Of the city. The
fact that the greater part Of the seed
sales have been in five cent lots indi-
Gates where will spring the beets, ra-
dishes and carrots Of the coming yege-

A week ago most store. managers
realized the trend Of gardening events
and fastened wirelesses to the Coast
clamoring for more seeds, and still
more. These are expected to arrive
with this weeks freight. while IN the
interim the stock Of packet seeds has
become low, and in me case of some
vegetables, such as onions, has been
wiped out altogether.
One inquirer yesterday raised the
point that the food raising campaign
was badly in need Of central direction
and that there was considerable indi,
cations that the ueasy vegetables,
and those with the quickest growth
were the center Of rush Of popnlari-
y while the humble, but eminently
useful "spudv was being neglected.
The unanimity Of the effort to in
crease the garden stock Of the city is
one of the surprising facts Of present.
