therefore, the Italian people have been
compelled to cut into the most urgent
needs of agriculture and industry. Her
continuous lack of labor has made the
task of feeding the army and provld-
ing it with munitions most difficult
one.
And yet Italy, lacking labor and in

entirely coal and raw materials, has
by a miracle of energy been able to
create almost from nothing power

Artist E. W. Christmas
Dies OF Heart Attack

News of the death of E. w. Christ
mas, r. B. A, which occurred sudden
ly in the Queens Hospital, Honolulu,
last Sunday night, came as a shock to
the many Maui friends of the kindly
artist who has spent much of the past
tseveral years on this island. The
death is attributed to heart disease.
Mr.. Christmas was an Englishman
and a world traveller and painter He
came to the Islands about 8 years
ago and became so enarmOured with
the scenery here that he had prolong-
ed his stay from month to month, the
while painting steadily. He had es.
pected to leave very shortly howevr. I,
for tour of the South Seas, and
went to Honolulu from Maui a few
weeks ago with that idea, but had
been delayed on account of lack of
steamer accommodations.
While he had not been in the best
of health, he did not consider himself
i'll, and the attack on Sunday was sud
den. The funeral took place on Tues
day afternoon from Williams under
taking parlors.
Mr. Christmas was highly regarded
as an artist, and his paintings had
been exhibited in the British AcG-
DENY. His Christ of the Andes, eX-
hibited at the Panama-Pacific EXposi-
ton, was perhaps his best known
work. Many of his paintings are now
owned in Island homes. The artist
was of a friendly and kindly nature,
and he had made friends where ever
he went, who VII learn Of his demise
with deep regret.

Maui Takes Lead In
Novel Stock Feeds
Cane Tops Promise To Make Valuable
Hay - Pigeon Pea Hay Also A
Promising New Product - Haiku
Ranch To Eliminate Imported Feeds

Pigeon pea hay, shredded corn stow
er, home grown corn, and cane top
hap, are the principal ingredients with
which the Haiku Ranch and the Maui
Agricultural Co. hope to replace en-
tirely the stock feeds which have
heretofgore been in large quantity
brought from the coast.
The Haiku Ranch is just complet-
ing what is perhaps the largest store
house and mill in the territory for
preparing these feeds is located at
Haiku and is being connected up with
the Kahului railroad with a short
track to make transportation a simple
matter. This mill will be equipped
with machinery for separating and
grinding grains and for mixing vari-
Gus feeds, as well as for drying and
storing them.
The Pigeon pea hay is being made
from the tops containing the. grain
which have been grown by f. G..
Krauss. These tops with stems leaves
and pods are first cured like hay, and
will later be ground for mixing with
other products to form a balanced
stock ration.

PalakikoAgain Made
District Magistrate
Hama Feud Apparently Patched Up
And No Opposition Materiallzed-
Fight In Courts Probably Pau
AnjO Also ReappOinted

H. E. Palakiko, was on Tuesday re-
appointed district magistrate of the
Hama district, and Joseph G. AnJo'
reappointed district magistrate for
Makawao, by Governor Mccarthy.
Both appointments are subject to con-
firmation by the territorial senate.
Palakiko was under hot fire during
his past term on charges of being
mixed up in a gambling game in one
instance, and of assault and battery
in another, but the charges were not
sustained. 1t was announced at the
time of the trial of the gambling
charge, in which a number of Hama
people were mixed up, that the case
would be carried to the supreme
court, and that other counts against
the accused would be pressed. Also
it was reported that the opponents to
Palakiko in Hama would have an
array of facts to lay before the Gov
ernor that would make virtually I'M
possible his reappointment. 1t is un-
derstood, however, that the hatchet
has been buried by the warning fac
tions in Hama, and that no opposition
was made to the reappointment for
this reason.

Kauai Opposes Civic
Convention This Year

ID. H. Case, secretary of the cham
Der of commerce, and member of
the committee appointed to look into
the matter of holding a civic conven-
ton this fall, has received a letter
from the Kauai chamber of commerce
to effect that Kauai does not believe
it advisable to hold the meeting this
year.
AS the matter now stands, both
Kauai and Hilo do not favor trying
to hold the convention, while both the
Honolulu chamber of commerce and
the Honolulu Ad Club do. No other
members of the territorial organiza-
ton have yet been heard from.
The matter will be up for consider
alton at the meeting of chamber next
Thursday afternoon, at which time
the question of relative weight of the
different territorial organizations will
probably be considered and possibly
some decision arrived at.

New Call OF Draft

Extra Men Notified And Dispatched
In Short Order - 16 Men Short
Will Be Secured By Modification
OF Certain Requirements

The call for 226 additional draftees
from Maui to help fill the national
guard regiments on Oahu to full war
strength reached the local draft board
last Friday afternoon. In spite of
the short notice SO men were gotten
together and sent down on the Clau-
dne the following evening, and on
last Wednesday 113 more were dis
patched which stripped the board of
all its available Glass l men. With
some IA men from Maui in Honolulu
this brought up the number to 210,
or 16 less than called for.
However it is expected to make up
these by men formerly rejected on
account of height and weight. Recent
modification of the requirements in
these particulars makes it possible to
secure quite a number more than pos
sible before.

who left last Saturday and on We'd
