HAWANANS FIGHT
 FOR RICH ESTATE

HONOLULU-The latest develop ment in the legal battle for the estate of the late former Queen Liliuokalani is an attack on the family tree of Jonah kuhio Kalan- ianaole, for sixteen years delegate to congress from the territory of Hawaii, an office he still holds.
 The claimant to the queens S2OO,- 900 estate who questions the dele gates genealogical chart is a woman whose Hawaiian name is Kahakaui Lakeliimoewaiowaiaulia which means in English Flash of the lightning of the chief who sleeps along the stream of Waiaulia". To save her friends linguistic embarrassment she is known socially as Mrs. Nawahie.
 In document just filed in the First circuit court of Hawaii Mrs Nawahie alleges that certain per sons from whom Kalanianaole claims descent never existed As the Ha- waiians had no written records prior to the coming of the first missionaries in 1920, the contest for the queens estate is very much involved, all of the several claimants admitting remote relationship which they trace back for many genera, tions.

ALLOTMENT AND ALLOWANCE
 CHECKS

There has been a change in the system of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance of the Treasury in the matter of allotment and allowance checks. This results in some of the checks sent out by the bureau being for smaller sums than heretofore, but the amounts omitted from the checks sent out by the bureau will be included in checks sent out from other sources.
 The new system will simplify the work of the bureau and is expected to accelerate the payments of allot- ments and allowances.
 Prior to July last the War Risk Insurance Bureau took the com pulsory allotment of S15 a month and whatever additional sum the enlisted man chose to allot to his family, and the whole amount, to- gether with the government allow

COLLECTING U. s. TAXES

In the execution of the policy of paying as large a proportion of the expenses of the war by taxation as possible, the treasury is making every effort to collect all federal taxes due to the United States.
 The department has evidence against many who have sought to evade taxes. Some of these tax evaders are American citizens re- siding or sojourning in Canada. A corps of specially trained revenue agents will be sent to the Canadian communities where many of these tax evaders reside to obtain tax returns from them.

WOMAN IN THE RANKS

Within one month 1000 members of the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps will be enrolled in the United States Army Service Corps. Three hundred are already at work in the offices, laundries and service of the American Expeditionary Force in France.
 They will supplant an equal num- Der of able bodied youths who will leave to take their places in fight ing units. The valiant service that these "Waacs" have given in the British army recommend their adop- tion by the United States staff and as many as can be spared are be- ing transferred to the United States service to relieve some man for duty nearer the actual combat
 The British "Waacs" are thor oughly military, being organized on military lines. The corps is officer ed with regular ranks of cores bonding to the army and the same insignia as army officers is worn.

REGULATION OF
 FOOD PRICES IS
 HARD PROBLEM

ANCHORAGE.-Brides' biscuits are in demand in Anchorage those biscuits either so insufticiently cooked that they stick to the plaster when thrown at the ceiling or so overdone that they make noise like logger's hobnailed boot when dropped on the floor. The culinary efforts of newly married sweet young things are wanted by merchants and consumers to hurl at a fair price committee that has essayed to fix quotations on flour and number of other articles of food
 The committee, which is composed of well-intentioned citizens equally representative of sellers and buyers, has aroused the hostility of dealers because it did not increase, and of consumers because it did not de- crease the figure on every sort of edible merchandise. The com mittee raised sugar and oatmeal cent a pound, and canned milk about ? cents a can. It lowered dried fruits few cents pound. It made no changes in other articles.
 The matter of fixing food prices in Anchorage was first given con- sideration a few months ago when negotiations were pending between the Alaskan Engineering Commis. sion and its employees relative to advances in wages. The employees contended Anchorage merchants were charging unreasonable prices or foodstuffs and asked the Commis. sion to re-establish the commissary which was started three years age at the time of the beginning of rail road construction but which wa: discontinued about a year ago. The commissary had sold goods to Com mission employees for wholesale prices plus ten percent.
 To the request for the re-estab lishment of the commissary, vigor ous objection was offered by An chorage merchants. They explained their prices were reasonable and de clared if the commissary were re established it's policy of buying il large quantities and selling fo wholesale prices, plus percentag just sufficiently high to defray tn cost of operation, would put tn stores out of business.
 When the suggestion of a fai price list was made by the Com mission, merchants and employee alike endorsed the idea.
 The list will be revised weekly In this fact, lies the hope of dealer for advances and of consumers fo reductions in the immediate future The fair price committee, in tn meantime, irritates dealers by ir sisting it's list of quotations is base on wholesale cost, expense of dc ing business and an equitable reta profit; and annoys consumers by 1T viting all the disgruntled anon them to join the committee and hell without any remuneration, in tn task of determining quotations.

POULTRY
FATS
MORE CHICKENS ARE WANTED
Farmers Are Urged by Department OF
Agriculture to Stock Their Farms
With More Poultry.

From the United States Department Of
Agriculture.)
The United States department of ag-
riculture urges as many as possible OF
the farmers who have not raised chick
ems to stock their farms this year with
fowls, enough at least to supply the
needs of their own households. This
will be big factor in the nationwide
campaign which will endeavOr to dou-
bic this year the chicken and egg pro-
duction of the United States. Accord
ing to the last census, of the 6,3l1 ,5O2
farms in the United States, 1927, ,743
reported no egg production. The more
chicken-and-mOre-eg campaign is eN-
pected to displace millions of pounds
of beef and pork in American menus
and send the released product across
the ocean to our soldiers, the allies,
and the hungry people of the lands
devastated by the Prussian war torch.
The department does not advise that
the general farmer embark in extern
sive raising of poultry, but warns
against such ventures. But it sees
no reason why every farm should not
produce enough chickens and eggs for
its own use, and why there should not
be enough surplus to make chickens
and eggs available to the general pub
lie at reasonable prices and in such
quantities that there will be markedly
less domestic demand for the meats
that are needed abroad and that can
be transported there.

FEEDING SiLAGE TO STOCK
as RoughaGe for Finished
Stock for Harket.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
As roughage for finished stock
there is no better or more economical
feed than silage for it produces large
daily gains and aids in keeping the
animals in Il healthy condition SO that
they can handle other feeds more ef-
fcctivcly. An advantage in feeding
silage to beef cattle that is often over
looked, is that it enables the feeder
to carry Ids stock for a long time so
as to pass over period of depression
in the market.
SiIage also can be 7rCftably used to
supplement pastures for steers during
time eff drought, when they are be-
ing finished for market.
For many years the belief was gen
eral that cattle which received slage
IS major portion of the rOughage
would have to be kept in warm barns
and not exposed to the cold. While
they do need protection from the cold
winds and rains and need Il dry place
to lie down, it has been clearly demon
81 SttNNi liltlL HtIl III lo lIoI WHY
unnecessary, but that fattcned cattle
make both larger and cheaper gains
when fed in the open sheds than when
confined in barns. StOcller or thin cat
tie receiving silage will, of course,
need more protection than animals
which are being fattened.
The theory that silage-fcd cattle
shrink very heavily in shipping to mar
kCt is erroneous. While the actual
sl,rinkage during transit is sometimes
greater, the fill taken at market is
usually good, and if good Judgment
IS used in preparing them for shipping
the net shrinlIage is no greater than
for cattle which have been fed on dry
feeds. For sc hours previous to ship
ping nice bright hay and stOver should
be substituted for the silage in the
ration.
The general impression that choice
or prime carcaSSCS cannot be made by
tho use of Succulent feed is equally
untrue, as the silage-fed cattle usually
make more desirable carcasses than
cattle fed a similar ration, except that
silage Was replaced by one of the
coarse folders. There is no appreciable

SKINNED MILK FOR CALVES
Since Most of Fat Has Been Removed
in Cream Carbohydrates Needed
to Make 1t Balanced.

Skinned milk is a little richer in
protein than whole milk, but lower in
carbohydrates. Since most of the fat
has been removed in the cream the
skinned milk will need carbohydrates
to make it Il balanced ration for calves.
A good plan is to replace a portion
of the whole milk with skinned milk,
gradually increase the skinned milk
with some form of carbohydrates till
all Of the whole milk is replaced by
skinned milk. Fine ground meal is
one of the best carbohydrate supple
ments to be fed with skinned milk.
Some feeders cook the meal, stir it
in the skinned milk and feed it to the
calf. After the calf is two weeks old
it will eat fine ground meal and if fed
small quantities will assimilate it,
LinsCed meal is ALSO used.
Care should be taken in feeding
calves. They should be taught to
drink from the pail as soon as pos
sible. Nothing but clean vessels should
be used and the milk should be clean
and warm.

FOWLS EAT WASTE MATERIAL
On Some Farms Chickens Pay for
Themselves by Destruction of In
furious Insects.

CFrom the United States Department OF
Agriculture.)
Chickens as byproduct of general
farming find much of their feed in the
waste materials that otherwise would
serve no useful purpose. The atten-
ton and labor they require can be Civ
en- largely even by children, and should
not require the employment of addi,
tiOnal hired workers. On some farms
the chickens practically pay for them
selves by their destruction of orchard
and vegetable insects. On others they
help TO pay for themselves by their
production of manure, which when
properly used largely increases the
value of the land. Fifty fowls will an-
nualIy produce at least ton of ma
nure that can be made as valuable as
commercial fertilizer
