HAS NEED OF A JAIL

WAILUKE, October l2-Robert

It used to be that an arrest on Lanai
was q rare occurrence, 80 there was sell
dom, if ever, use for lookup. But
Lanai has evidently fallen from grace,
or, to be more exact, the water wagon,
for Cockett complains that there is
much drinking over there. There being
no Jail, when an arrest is made it is
necessary for the police officer to stand
guard over his prisoner at night or un'
til he can find "a way to send him to
Lahaina for trial. Lately there have
been so many arrests that the job Of
Excepting wake' over the DRINKS has
become quite irksome. =.
In answer to the appeal, Sheriff Grow

stated, and will recommend to the su,

MAUI IS RAISING
DIVERSIFIED CROPS
Valley Island Can Supply Entire
Territory Says Food Com
mission In WeekIyletter

Hawaii as whole may well look to
Maui for its production Of h;G6Aysifed
crops, says the weekly lettksa ofirthe
territorial food commission, based on
the reports of the county agents on the
various islands, Potatoes, corn, beans,
poultry, eggs, beef, pork, hams, bacon,
and agricultural seeds are all being
produced on a commercial scale by the
Valley Islanders without any noise or
furry over the matter.
The rational extension Of diversified
farming is responsible for this, in the
opinion of the county agent, and the
sugar plantations. have not been the
last TO adopt modern methods in this
respect. Cattle and swine raising have
made rapid strides.
Several hundred acres Of abandoned
cane land mauka Of the HamakuapOko
section is available for diversified crops,
and viii probably be planted with cow
peas, beans, peanuts, pigeon peas, and
other leguminous crops, rotating with
corn, with view TO raising feed for
extensive stock production.
Corn has done well At Harold Rirrs
farm, about one and three. quarters tons
per acre Of grain and two tons of
slower being harvested, which at the
present high price Of corn leaves a
handsome profit. Modern, equipment
has been used for husking, shredding,
and Smelling the corn and bailing the
shredded stover, which is worth twenty
dollars per ton baled. The corn is Of
exceptional quality and is worth sew
enty dollars ton on the farm.
Reports from the Kohala homestead
section, Hawi plantation, Puuhue ranch
and Kaanhuhu state that the drought
in that part of the island has spoiled
large part of the garden products.
Crops already planted have been burn
ed and stunted by the dry weather,
and in many places no paintings have
been made ON account of the drought.
The county agent for West Hawaii
has been endeavoring TO work up en-
thusiasm for Kona county fair as a
means of encouraging the agricultur.
lists. The japanese report an excep-
tionally good crop of coffee. Part of the
Bishop Estate land>has been leased and
is being cleared for cultivation. Some
Of the land will be used for coffee and
some for vegetables and corn, which
will also be planted between the coffee
rows while the plants are young. Eggs
have been very scarce in Kona.
