Uplift Of Their Race Is

Dealing with a problem that was
created by the coming of the white
race to the Hawaiian Islands and

contributed comprehensive work

htcn freely given to the publication of
'he news Of those efforts and to assist

The work of Mr.. Akana is, therefore,
timely and of added interest.
W. Akhna recognizes that whatever
is done must come through the Hawai-,

may be aided they must depend in
main part upon their own efforts and
that to stimulate the energy of the

the medium. Hence his work is parti,

SUPPLIES Of RICE
WILL NOW Be AMPLE
Whatever Shortage There Has
Been Is Ended BY Arrival of
Supply and More Comes

What scarcity there has been Of
rice supplies in Hawaii is ended. A
large consignment of the Siamese rice
has arrived, a special steamer is soon
to bring big consignment of Japan
rlce and importation from San Fran,
cisco of California rice is well under
way or soon will be.
The charter and coming of spr.
cial steamer from Japan was told in
private cablegram received yestrr
day by the Fakakuwa Company, Que
Of the largest japanese importers in
Honolulu 1t said the steamer was
chartered by the Kobe exporters to
take 2OOO tons of japan rice and other
provisions to Hawaii. Though the date
of departure from Japan was not men.
toned in the cable it is believed that
it wilt reach here early next month.
Only tCgulat steamer is scheduled
to arrive from Japan next month, but
the coming of the special steamer will
relieve the local situation to a degree
so far as the supplies of Japan rice is
conceTned.
importation from San Francisco of
California rice is planned by the Taxa
kuwa Company, Of which Y. Takakuwa
is president and manager. He is now
in San Francisco to make necessary ar.
rangemcnts with Californian rice grow
ers.' 1t s the expectation of the local
JaPahese that as importation of rice
from california can be made with less
cost than from Japan, the prices Of
the staple may be substantially reduc-
eh as s"dn as supplies begin to come
in quantity from San Francisco.
Ten thousand bags of the Siamese
rice, which just arrived from the Ori-
ent were consigned to Fred l.. Wal
dron. AS the embargo on tice from
Japan has been lifted by the Japa,
nese government in favor of the Japa-
nese in Hawaii and as California s rice
yield may be relied upon in case Of
an emergency, no importations Of the
Siamese rice will be attempted by the
focal japanese merchants.

On this subject Mr. Akana said to The
Advertiser:
"Tbe supply is limited. owing to the
high cost OF printing. Each copy will
cost twenty five cents. But by buying
in lots of one hundred copies, the pnr.
chaser may have them at twenty cents

CITY Men For Farms.

Secretary Houston's appeal TO
city men to undertake farm work
this season addresses itself particu-
larry to men who have had farm
experience There are thousands
of them il every big city who are
saving less money in town than
they would if took a job in the
country, where expenses are the
lowest and temp ations to waste
money the fewest
The draft, the allurements of city
,life and tempting stories about big
money in war work have taken
many men from the country. The
result has been such a shortage Of
farm labor as to threaten serious
reduction in farm production. The
world is short of food today The
situation will be desperate, if for
any reason this should prove to be
a bad wear on the farms
Any city man who can make him
self useful on farm will do his
country a service of great import
ance by undertaking farm labor
this year, and at the same time
thousands of them will do them
selves a good turn at the same
time.
