price the services of unnecessary mddlemen..
Before the people of the territory go into garden
ing on a great scale, il should be known exactly
what food crops are needed here to supplement the
available rations. The army knows this and is per
fecty willing TO disseminate the knowledge through
proper channels.
Another probem-large in itself-is that of keep
ing down the prices for cattle, hog and chicken feed
Within the past few days the Star Bulletin has pub
lished information concerning the stock feed stua
ton which is startling. Prices are going so high
that dairymen face extinction of their business,
ranchers must slaughter their hogs, poultrymen
must get rid of their chickens. serious inroad on
the available supply of fats is threatened.
1t is obvious that more feed should be raised here.
Such crops as alfalfa, stock peas and must be
started at once.
All this is bare suggestion of the many questions
Hawaii faces because of the national and territorial
shortage in food supplies The questions cannot be
put off until next month or next year. The presi-
dent Of the United States and the secretary of agr
culture have issued emphatic warnings to the Amer
lean people. Rising prices had already warned the
consumer that the nation must raise more food.
In Hawaii there is a tremendous amount of IN
occupied land for which labor be secured if the
resources OF the families are intelligently "mobi.

of blockade, Will require plantation labor and it
is a fact that plantation men have already patri-

food crops. But there is an enormous amount of
land not now cultivated which can be made to pro

There is no lack of willing helpers. There is ne
lack of volunteer energy. There is no lack of ac-
tivity already started. But there is something lack
ing-a scheme which will correlate all these ae-
tivities without destroying any of the initiative al
ready enthusiastically displayed.
One of the high officials of great agency said the
other day that he would like to be able to spare the
time to take hold Of this situation. He sees the
necessity for organized and united effort.
Somebody, some representative committee, ought
to make the time The nation is coming to the sys
TEN of public food control and Hawaii will have to
come to it, too, unless there is voluntary move
ment now to handle the situation before it becomes
so grave that stocks of food must be seized and

If so there is danger in delay.

Emmett, says: 81 was troubled by
irregular action of my kidneys and
when the kidney secretions were pass
ling, they seemed to burn. A steady
dull pain in my back annoyed me
and whenever | stopped, it was almost
impossible for me to straighten on
account of sharp pains that darted
through my kidneys. | had to work

a day and this made my back much
worse. Two boxes of Doan's Kidney
Pills fixed me up all right"

BOOTH HARRINGTON AS 1.-THE DUKE"

Few of those who have followed
the life of Booth Harrington know that
atone time the author was known In
Capri as "the grand duke"
Mr.. and Mrs. Harrington, who had
been staying in the Hotel Quisisana,
Capri. for some little time, were about
TO Journey to Rome, where they had
engaged rooms at the Palace hotel.
At Capri the American novelist and
his wife were known as "the grand
duke and Duchess" because they
never questioned the first prices that
were asked for anything they wished
to buy, no matter how exorbitant and
outrageous were these prices.
The general custom in Capri was
TO ask ridiculously high prices and to
come down gradually to a business
basis. What still further impressed
the people of Capri with the munifi-
cence of their "grand duke and duch-
ess" was that, when attending ma
tive wedding. Mrs. Harrington, sud

MT. Shay and L. B. Carron were
 in our city this week. Mir. Shay is an agent for the c. M. c. trucks and was here for the purpose of trying to place orders for trucks for the purpose of hauling. the freight from Holbrook to St. Johns Mir. Shay is an experienced hand and we'll acquainted with what the truck can do in different parts of the United States and he says that the roads from St. Johns to Holbrook is much better than roads on which many of G. M. C. trucks are making good money. He is of the opinion that there IS a fine chance here for someone to make money with a truck frieght line. In many cases where the horse teams have tried to com pete with the truck, the teams have had to move out and give way to the truck. It is probable that if someone here does not in vest in a truck that someone from the outside will put one on our roads and show us what can be done and then perhaps someone will see the point when it is too late.
