Rev. A. C. Lathrop suffered very
painful injuries Saturday afternoon
by being struck by Mrs. Andy Little S
car and his body dragged short dis
tance. The accident occurred at the
Cash Grocery corner, when Mr.. Lath-
rop started to pass in front of the
moving car, then hesitated and turn
ed back. He was knocked down and
dragged, but was not run over. His
side and back were severely bruised
in addition to several cuts and bruises
on his legs, but no bones were broken,
and he suffered severe pain for sew
eral days, but is improving nicely
now. His escape from serious and
possible fatal injuries was almost
miraculous. Mr.. Lathrop places no
blame upon Mrs. Little. 1t was one
of those unfortunate accidents which
seem to be unavoidable under the cir
cumstances.

Bulletin On SilOS In
Hawaii Soon To Be Issued

An interesting and exhaustive paper
entitled THE Silo in Hawaii has just
been completed by f. G. Krauss, super
intendent of the agricultural extension
division of the Hawaii experiment sta
ton, and which is soon to be published
in the form of a station bulletin. Mr.,
Krauss finds that there have been
about so silos of about all forms of
construction, erected in the Islands,
and about half of these are still in
use. The greatest use of the silo ac-
cording to the paper, is on the Parker
Ranch, Hawaii, which has concrete
structures of total capacity of 1850
tons. From the investigations made
the writer believes that the silo has
demonstrated its worth in the Islands
under at least some of the local condi-
tiOns.
The various crops used for silage
and its cost under varying conditions
is gone into in detail. The bulletin
will doubtless be of much interest tC
stockmen in the Islands.

Women OF Hawaii
To Be Registered
HoOver'S Plan To Organize Women
OF Nation Endorsed By Food Com
mission Organizations Asked To
VOlunteerFOr Big JObSOOn To Begin

Uncle Sam is calling upon the wo-
men of the Islands to cooperate with
the United States food administration
in the matter of food conservation.
This morning Postmaster Costa re-
ceived a letter from the postmaster
general, directing him to see that
every woman and girl over Is, living
within the radius of his postofiice dis
trict be furnished with a pledge card
for the purpose in question.
Mr. Costa will distribute these as
fast as possible, and as soon as they
have been signed and returned will
report to Washington and in return
will receive a large card for hanging
in the window of homes, bearing the
words-"Memeber of United Food Ad-
ministration'-for each women who
has agreed to work with the govern
ment in saving the food supply Of the
nation. Any woman not receiving the
pledge card should apply to the post
master for it.
Local Food Commission Helping
The above idea seems to be new in
the Islands though the territorial food
commission, through it's women's COM
mittee has had similar plan in view
This is explained in the following press
bulletin sent out by the comm isslon:
HONOLULU, July 26,-At its meet
ing Monday the womens committee
of the territorial food commission en-
dorsed the plan which Herbert c.
Hoover, National Food Administrator,

Relocation OF PukOO
Road Starts Things
Board Of Supervisors Notified By
Rex Hitchcock - Courts Will Be
Appealed To Unless Order OF Last
Meeting Is Recinded

The order of the board of supervi
sors at its meeting two weeks ago for
relocating and constructing the road
to the Pukoo court House, Molokai,
seems to have stirred up something
of a hornets nest on that Island. H.
r. Hitchcock has written a letter to
Supervisor ID. T. Fleming, who intro
duced the motion, declaring that the
Devauchelle family constitute the only
ones on Molokai who want the road
changed. The present road has been
in existence for over 25 years, he says,
and this is the first time that claim
has been made of the land it occupies.
He declares that the present road is
better in every way than the proposed
new road could be, and that the new
road will cost several hundred dollars.
The action of the board in the mat
ter was taken upon a letter from Mrs.
Annie Devauchelle asking that the
change be made.
Hitchcock declares in his letter to
Fleming, and also in letter he has
written to County Attorney Bevins,
that he will contest the matter in the
courts if the country does no recind its
order

ing. Plans will probably take definite
shape at booster dinner to be held

Says Homestead Bill
Not For Sugar Men
Land Commissioner Rivenburgh De-
tends New Bill Against Attack By

In Sympathy With Measure

Land Commissioner B. G.. Riven-
burg, who has been at the national
capitol on territorial business and re-
turned to Honolulu last week on the
Matsonia, declares he feels certain
that after Is minutes conversation
with Edwin G. Moore, of Haiku. Maui,
he can convince the Maui man that
the new homesteading bill now before
congress has not been prepared for
the benefit of the sugar interests of
the islands.
Moore recently wrote to w. G.. Hous-
ton, chairman of the house committee
on Territories prote sting in the name
of homesteaders of the Islands against
the passage of II. i. 4722 which Land
Commissioner Rivenburgh urged while
in Washington.
A letter from Delegate Kuhio re.
ceived by late mails, states that he
introduced the bill "by request, and
indicates that he is net in sympathy
with it. AS previously stated in the
Maui News, the proposed act would
pat the opening of homestead lands in
the hands of a board, with the consent
of the governor, and would permit the
leasing of public lands to plantations
for a period of 20 years.

Soldiers Are Planning
Tramping Trip On Maui

A company of regulars from Scho-

10days hike on Maui in the near fut-
ure, according to a letter received
this week from A. p. Taylor, secretary
of the Hawaii promotion committee,
who was seeking information that
might be of value to the soldiers in
planning their itinerary. According
to Taylor this will probably be but
the first of a number of similar out
ings to be made by the army men on
Maui this summer.
The plan is to visit Haleakala, and
possibly pass through the crater and
back by the ditch trail. The soldiers
will carry their full equipage except
rifles with them.

received any communication on the

Pineapple Man Says
To Make Grape Juice
Believes Maui And Hawaii Vineyards
Could Furnish Large Amount From
Grapes Which May Now Be A Loss
Food Commission Interested

Taking for his test the query as to
why Hawaii's grape crop should be
permitted to rot because the making
of wine has ceased, Will p. Thomas,
of the Thomas Pineapple Company has
laid before the territorial food COM
mission suggestion for the utilization
of valuable produce now threatening
TO go to waste.
If the people of Hawaii are willing
to drink imported grape juice, why
should they not support a grape
juice industry? Mr.. Thomas believes
and so states in his letter to the food
commission, that all the details nee
cessary to turn Maui and Hawaii's
grapes into a commercial non-alcoholic
and acceptable product could be hand
led locally.
The shutting down of the Kaupaka-
lua and other wine manufactures in
anticipation of the advent of prohibit
ton has left tons of grapes to rot on
the vines, the produce representing
in many instances the main assets of
many small farmers, especially
on Maui. Mr.. Thomas feels confident
that prohibition can still further be
anticipated by the manufacture for
local consumption of the grapes be-
verage that will have to supplant
wine.
Hundred Tons On Maui
There are, Thomas thinks, a hun
dred tons of grapes this year on Maui
for which there is now no use, while
a large quantity is produced on Ha-
waii. ]. G. Serrao, of Hilo, has for
example twenty acres in grapes now
