PROFIT IN BEANS $

w. F. Schilling of Mortified and
formerly of Appleton, well known in
the state as progressive farmer,
and community builder, gave an ad-
dress at Mapleton last week and in it's
report the Enterprise had the follow
ing to say: Said Mr.. .Schilling, I am
going to get 500 per acre out of my
beans this year and have the straw
left to feed my cows. By the way, it
is one Of the best feeds that can be
given cow. Plant navy beans and
whatever you do never work them
when it is wet and damp. It will mean
rust and the dark colored beans MAX
ing handpicking necessary. Plant the
beans with grain drill twenty-eight
inches apart and you can thresh with
a grain separator by cutting down the
speed with a smaller pulley on the en-
CINE and taking out the concave. The
speaker also referred to the raising of
potatoes for the early market, and the
planting Of squash every fifth row.
Mr.. Schilling proposes placing the
squash upon the city market in
"loins;" that is, he will cut it up in
pieces, wrapping each section in oiled
paper and saving the seed, which will
be disposed of to a seed house. He
stated that we are living in an age
Of necessity for getting down to brass
tacks in the handling Of farm prob
lens.

Caughren Theatre Notes

There is a simple and direct story
told in "The Measure of a Man," the
Bluebird photoplay, to be exhibited at
the Caughren theatre Sunday night,
with ]. Warren Kerrigan and Louise
Lovely playing the principal roles. A
young man has been expelled from
divinity school because of his evident
unfitness to wear the cloth. He goes
to a Western lumber camp, and be-
cause of his clerical appearance, is in
stalled as spiritual adviser of the rug
ged woodsmen. Interest in the en-
suing episodes will center in the force
fitness of the young mans admins
tration of the gospel-the physical
"punch" he put into his daily transac-
lions meant more than the oral points
he made in his sermons. And the cas-
lest job of all was to win the trusting
heart of the rugged little mountain
queen who helped him to conquer his
own bad habits and lead his neighbors
into better way. The respectful and
reverent treatment of the subject Of
religion will be one of the pleasing
features of the story.
Z !Hr-
Don't forget Billy Burke for Fri
day night. She needs no introduction,
no comments, no apologies. We just
wanted to remind you, that's all.
While Douglas Fairbanks would
have made the dullest evening pleas
ant and the most confirmed pessimist
smile in his role last Friday night, yet
the man at the piano had way all his
own that brought out the story the
pictures were telling better than any
thing else. If Mr.. Dubeau could have
someone like Mr.. Lee at the piano all
the time, he could even show an educa-
tional film and get crowd.

SAY SOCKS ARE POOR
THINGS TO KNIT UPON

There may be romance, says the
San Francisco Examiner, in knitting
sock for a soldier, but It is poor
business for all that.
So claim the predetermined Off
GERS Of the Quartermaster Corps. To
them a sock by any other name would
still be sock; likewise, in the terms
of the supply branch of the army, a
sock is a current unit of exchange.
Women of patriotic intent, who
know how to knit, have been devoting
their fingers and hearts to making
soldier socks. All of which is very
nice and praisworthy, and ought to be
commended, say the ofticers-but it is
bad business.
The women ought to be knitting
searfs and wristlets, instead of socks,
1t would be just as patriotic, and
praiseworthy, and everything 1t
would be better business.
For a pair of socks cost the gov
eminent Is cents; and the officers
have figured out that a woman can
not knit a pair Of socks for less than
so cents, when her time and energy
is figured. A pair Of handmade socks
therefore is 800 per cent loss of eff
cheney, according to the hard calcula.
tons OF the militarists; and no war
can be fought on any such basis as
that.

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: Thanking you for your kind
ness in publishing letter in your pa
per Of the 23d inst. signed D. ex-sol-
diers and ex-sailors who are now on
the police force. l must say it has
done a world of good; a reporter for
the morning paper has admitted that
the story of a brutal assault on a SOL
der in Auwaiolimu district by police
officer was a mistake; no soldier
having been assaulted there. But the
man or men responsible for the story
has not the moral courage or civic
decency to publicly admit that there
was no such assault. Now is the time
when we should all pull together.
Does the Advertiser think it is doing
its duty to the nation by trying to in
cite a riot between enlisted men and
police? / say 1t is not doing its duty,
and the sooner the federal authorities
take a hand and teach It what it's
duty is-something which it seems at
THIS time to be totally ignorant Of
the better it will lie for the enlisted
men, the police and the public at
large
Respectfully yours,

WAR TAXES WILL
SWELL RECEIPTS
IN LOCAL OFFICE

Press Dispatches from Washington
IN regard 10 the debate on the big
var tax bill In Congress are proving
% much interest 70 Collector OF In
ternAl Revenue John +. Haley and
his staff OF deputies. for Il Is on them
that the burden Of collecting Hawaii's
share Of the tax will fall.
As the bill stood yesterday when /.
passed the house. it proposed taxes
which will make radical changes IN
the local collections, AS an example
Of this may be cited the increase on
earnings between 100000 and $500.
900 a year. The proposed tax would
increase payments from this group
ing by more than 200 per cent over
what was paid here last year, It Is
safd.
1t is estimated that IS per cent Of
the returns filed with incomes be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 paid no taxes
because Of the fact that this number
had incomes from dividends, which
are exempt up to $2O,00o
Under the proposed law every one
of these would be subject to taxes of
from l to per cent, Collector Haley
said this morning.
Another big change under the pro
posed law would be in the number Of
returns filed At present no returns
are filed up TO the $1,000 mark; az
returns would be filed II
above $1,000. The law would quad
ripple the returns and probably in
crease the taxes to five times their
present strength
