Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1917-06-30

For more than a month the daily
editions OF the Honolulu Star-Bulle-
tin have been issued from the new
16-page Duplex single llate rotary
press. During this period the maChin-
cry and the force have he~Omp adjust
ed to new conditions and the EresS
room is open to callers.
This new press means that the
growth of the Star-Bulietin has forced
1t from the small country paper flat
bed press TO a printing machine Of
metropolitan size and standard. The
result Is that Star-Bulletin readers
and patrons of all classes receive bet
ter service. The Star-Bulletin s flat
bed press was the first OF it's kind
brought to Hawaii The rotary Dn-
pick is the first Of this type to be
operated in the islands.
This change, which may mean lit
tie more than added convenience to
the ordinary reader, brings about
radical changes in the method Of
handling Hawaiis greatest neWspa-
per Every operation from the time
the news Is gathered till the cOmplet-
ed paper goes to the boys on the
streets is necessarily changed.
The time of closing the forms is ad-
vanced Each page must have a deti-
mite time for locking up so that the
matriX for the form can be properly
made, and the plate we'll cast. 1t is
after the pages are on the press that
the time is gained. The etght-page
Duplex press turned out, at best, 1000
eight-page papers an hour The new
press of the Star-Bulletin reels off
up to 10000 16-page papers an hour.
invitation to Public
The illustration of the press gives
an idea OF the difference between the
rotary press and the flat-bed, but to
be appreciated the press must be seen
in operation. Patrons of the paper are
cordially invited to watch the press
running. The start on the first edi-
ton is usually about 2:30 in the af-
ternOOn. The second edition goes TO
press about $50.
This new press was built by the
Duplex Printing Press Company OF
Battle Creek, Mich. Its installation
was made necessary by the steadily
increasing circulation of this paper
that has kept pace with the growth Of
the town. More papers and a quicker
delivery in a given time are required.
First Virtue Is Speed
The first virtue Of this new press
is its speed.
Fhe second. which may be first in
the minds of many readers and adver-
Users, is that the press will turn out
an issue up to Is pages within on
an issue up to Is pages within one
ond section" that has to be folded in
by hand, and is considered of least
value by the advertiser. Subscribers

PROGRESSIVE HAMMOCK VALLEY.

The Bannock Valley is one of the most fertile and
attractive valleys in Idaho. Timber ample for local
needs is found in the canyons of the mountains hem
ming the valley in. Bannock peak, shaped like the
Pyramids of Egypt, with an elevation Of 5000 feet,
stands like a sentinel guarding the approach to the
lower end of the valley. BOWen's Peak shown be-
low, is a little higher than Bannock peak, but
not so majestic nor impressive. 1t is on the west side
of the valley, and near its center. 1t is at the foot
of this peak that the Bowen homestead, one of the
first in the valley, is located. Here the first cabin
was built, and within two or three miles of it will be
found the homesteads of all the first settlers.
In the early days there was little farming, the
growing of stock being the chief industry. The val
ley, with Bannock creek rising in its lower end, with
rushing little streams emerging from the canyons,
and with nice springs Astounding, provided an ex-
cellent range. The mountains skirting the valley
provide range yet for thousands Of head OF Sheep,
cattle and horses.
Small settlements do not bring conveniences, how
ever, such as schools, churches and good society.
The early settlers missed these things, and ardently
assisted in the campaign that was later made to pop
ulate the valley. They now have good schools, ample
church privileges, telephone, and good mail service,
and all those things that tend toward making a good
rural community.
With the coming of settlers came a farming de-
velopment rarely paralleled. Thousands upon thou
sands of acres, within a period of two or three years,
were placed under cultivation, and Arbon took its
place as one of the great wheat producing sections
of the state.
There is an enviable community spirit pervadlng
the valley. The spirit of cooperation is of the best,
and good results always follow such a condition. The
people study better farming methods, and work to-
gether for the improvement of livestock. The sup
preston of weed and rodent pests claims their unit
ed attention. AS a consequence, they get results.
Struggling through the privations incident to
wrestling homes from the desert or wilderness every
where, the settlers are winning in the battle for sue
cess. Many of them are in comfortable clrcum-
stances. many more are we'll on the way to that goal,
and few there are who regret their coming.

WINS WITH ALFALFA SEED.

Z. y. Wells has 44O acres OF land
south of Springfield overlooking the
big bottoms. He formerly lived at
Malad, Idaho, where he learned con-
siderable about raising alfalfa seed.
He bought a cattle ranch at Spring
field with alfalfa meadows already
established. and when they began to
get thin he tried letting it go to seed.
His predecessor had made a failure
Of raising alfalfa seed. sc Wells was
doubtful. He met with Indifferent
success, but improved as he learned
just how to apply the water TO suit
his lands and the climate. His mea-
dows were free from weeds. and his
alfalfa seed was of high quality and
free from pests. Our Uncle Samuel
discovered Mr.. Wells and his high
quality seed some years ago, and
bought his whole crop at a high price
for use in introducing alfalfa in To-
calities where it was new. Aside
from success in this line, Mr.. Wells
operated his farm without many new
ideas being applied, and managed tC

PAULINE.

The settlement now known as Pau
line comprises the lower end of the
Bannock valley. Six years ago John
Noble erected a building and establish
ed a good merchandise business which
has been of great assistance in the
development of the valley.
In 1910 Mrs. George Butler taught
a small number of pupils in a little
log cabin on West Fork. The follow
ing year Mr.. Perry Howell opened
school in a small log cabin of Ed Pei
lum's, later moving in the L. d. S.
church building which was completed
for that purpose. His services were
highly satisfactory. He also taught
at the Central school when first COM
pleted. l.. B. Howell was then engag-
ed for the Pauline school and taught
with success for four years.
In 1913 School District No. 10 voted
a bond to build a twO-room school
house which was erected that year and
a very efficient grade school has been
maintained. Perry Howell and Miss
Mary Evans are the present teachers.
In 1912 a post office was establish
ed and named Pauline. John Noble
acted as post master. The post office
was later moved TO the residence of
John Kowallis. whose wife is post
mistress.
Albert c. Thomson runs a black
smith shop which has been a useful
factor in the progress of the farming
Industry.
David Ripley and the Dawson
brothers. also William A. Nunnelley
have done their share in lumber bust
ness in making it possible for far
mers of the community to erect macy
new buildings.
The L. d. S. Sunday school at Pau
line vas organized in 1910 with ]. II.
Hansen as superintendent, with JohI
W. Lusk and John Bischoff as his as
sistants. In 1912 a ward organization
of the L. ID. S. church was formed
with W. F. Kowallis as bishop, Charles
Myler and w. W. jerks, his counselors
W. +. Dawson, clerk. The Sunday
school was ~reorganized at this time
with j.. d. Dawson as superintendent
and F.. Z. Fredrickson and c. W
Knowles his assistants.

Wells to secure large tracts of his

growing interest in beets in that
locality may mark the beginning Of
a new era in agriculture at Spring
