LASKINE NOT HUN SPY,
MERELY BIG NUISANCE,
SAYS LOCAL HOTEL MAN

That Boris de Laskine, who posed
her as Russian diplomat and was ar
rested in San Francisco as an alleged
German spy, was spy is doubted by
officials of the Young hotel who had
occasion to come IN contact with him
many times.
"He did not have enough sense to
be spy said one of the hotel men,
che was nothing less than a nuisance
around here. He pestered us with
questions and would ask the price of
every little ride while here. 1t was
how much this and how much that
until 1 used to try to get behind the
desk when / saw him coming"
While de Laskine was here he made
few trips, and from all appearances
did not spend much money.
The hotel man believes that the rea-
son for his arrest was his uncalled
for protest against paying duty on his
baggage in this port.

Pine Culture
EXPERIMENTS
HELD ON MAUI

Interesting information regarding
experiments and demonstrations in
pineapple culture is contained in a
report sent to the territorial food COM
mission by F. G. Krauss, agent for
the commission on the island Of
Maui.
After a years careful planning"
says Mr. Krauss' report, the Hawaii
agricultural experiment station,
through its extension division at Hal
ku, has worked out an extensive pro-
ject which has for its purpose the
demonstration OF the best established
practises of pineapple culture. Like
wise there has been planned series
of field experiments supplmenting
those being carried on in the labora-
tories which aim to shed light on the
more obscure causes for the serious
losses sustained by the pineapple
growers in recent years.
Some 10 acres on the old Patter-
son homestead near Haiku, which is
adVantageously adapted to the pro-
ject, have been set aside and the work
is already under way. Some of the
most important phases of the work,
which consist of culture, draining, fer
tilization, green manuring, types of
plants, methods of planting, time of
planting and other equally important
factors, are being considered. This
project promises to become one of
the most important ones SO far un-
dertaken by the extension division"

MOTORMAN IS
EXONERATEDBY

With Deputy Sheriff Julius Asch
presiding the cOroner's jury yesterday
morning returned a verdict OF acci
dental death in the case Of Hoei lisa,

that while operating his car on the
Oahu avenue line last Friday he saw
a wagon filled with grass going d.
rectly ahead of him. He said he kept
on sounding his gong when he first
observed the wagon at distance OF
800 feet. As he approached the
wagon, he slowed down considerably.
The driver of the wagon, who was ap'
parently lisa, swung his team away
from the street car, and while so do
ing, the horses became frightened, ran
back onto the track and the wagon
was hit by the street car.
Hill said that had he brought his
car to a full stop the collision could
have been prevented. The car struck
the left front wheel of the wagon, &C
cording TO Hill, but women witnesses
said that II was the rear wheel.
e. e: Youtz, of the Kamehameha
schools, testified that he, heard the
bell sounded by the motorman as it

fore the collision occurred the car was

LABOR COMES
FORWARD FOR
RICEPLANTING
Kauai Planters Give Land Rent
Free and Guarantee Price
of SIS Per Bag

Without waiting for action by the
committee on labor of the territorial
food commission, Japanese, Chinese
and Filipinos on Kauai have come for
ward and offered to plant to rice the
435 additional acres soon to become
available for this purpose on the Gar
den Island
This is the report brought to Homo
lulu by A. Hebard Case, agent for
the commission on Kauai, who says
he has made arrangements whereby
the available land will be given free
of rent and whereby dealers will pay
the growers not less than S. a sack
for their rice.
Mr.. Case says that joint commit
tee of the Kauai Chamber of Com
merce, Planters association and
board Of supervisors sent out a circu-
lar letter to owners of taro and rice
lands requesting them to make a COM
plete report on the area of land held
by them and the acreage under cul'
ivation. They were also requested to
make propositions tending to induce
rice planters to take up some of the
uncultivated lands.
This a good many Of them did,"
says Mr.. Case, and some made the
offer of lands rent free. The Kauai
Planters association has made a def
mite guaranty of IS per bag of rice
produced so as to encourage the plant
ing Of rice and also give the planter
some assurance of a return for the
time and labor involved in bringing
the crop to maturity. To date it has
been unnecessary to make use of this
proposition because of the present
high price of rice.
THE 435 acres of new rice lands
available for the 1918 crop were con-
sidered to be impossible to be plant.
ed because of the shortage of labor.
These laborers receive q wage of $50
month and board, this board I found
to be On the average of $14 a month
per man.
1T seems that the rice grower
should receive a fair margin of profit
since, in the past, he was almost
forced out of the business due to
the extremely low price. Even at Sc
a bag of rice the profit is very small
compared with the price received
from sugar cane"

Order Deer Given
Chance to Jump

To save the lives of deer seen on
the railroad track at night, the
Southern Pacific Company has issued
orders to its engineers to extinguish,
momentarily, the headlights of loco
motives. The order was issued at
the request of the state fish and
game commission.
The deer, it was explained, fire.
quently use The railroad tracks in
their migration at this time of year
from higher to lower attitudes. The
glare of the locomotive headlight
confuscs the deer, and during the
past month more than dozen have
been killed by the trains. 1t was
discovered that if the light is extin-
guished, il only for a second, the
deer jumps 10 safety.
The engineers running into this di-
vision point from the south especially
state that frequently deer are struck
by the pilot of the engine, and scarce
ly month passes by that such an
incident is not reported to have oc-
CURED somewhere on the Siskiyou
mountains. Most motorists have had
jackrabbits run along, perhaps for
miles, in front of the headlights of
their automobiles. The deer are af-
fected in the same way by the head

Local Militia Team
Trims Cottage Grove

The Coast Artillery Corps basket
ball team outplayed the Cottage
Grove high-schoolers in every depart
ment of the game Saturday evening at
the armory and came out on the long
end of a 26 to II score. The game
was fast and interesting throughout
and deserved a large larger crowd
than the one or two hundred who
turned out. The local soldiers have
built up speedy aggregation and
should take the measure of any team
in southern Oregon now playing.
Ashland took the lead early in the
first half and played rings around
their opponents, Millard Grubb prov.
ing the bright individual star
throughout and tossing basket after
basket at the end of sensational drib-
bles and passing rallies. At the end
of the first half the score stood 16 to
2. In the second half the locals let
up and Cottage Grove came back
doubly hard and brought up their end
until the final score stood &c to II.
The game was clean and free from
roughness.
In the teamwork of the militia
team seems 20 lie the main chance
for improvement, but naturally fire.
quent games will overcome the ten
dency toward individual, playing.
The guarding is eXcellently developed
with Clix Delsman bearing the brunt
of the defensive work. Millard
Grubb scored eighteen of his team s
points, Delsman two, Burnett two and
Larkin Grubb, who replaced Burnett
in the second half, four. Freeman at
center secured the knock-off with
regularity, and Long at guard showed
remarkable coolheadedness for an i'm
experienced player.
In fast preliminary the high
school second team defeated the mill
tia second stringers by score of 1S
to IA. ....
| The Cottage Grove boys expressed
themselves as well satisfied by the
treatment received both here and at
Md'ord and left for the north Sun
day with a record of breaking even
in the games played in the valley,
having won from Ashland high and
Medford high and lost to the latter
school team and to the local militia
team.

ception given.
