EXPECT WHEAT ACREAGE
TO EQUAL THAT OF 1918
Some Farmers Fear Government May
Not Maintain Guaranteed Price
Many Calls For Seed Barley Go I'm

Prospect OF Large Acreage.

With fairly good weather tor farm
work and with the soil in good condi-
ton to till. spring seeding is progress

farmers from various parts of the
county who have called at the county
agents office. II was said that the
seeding OF small grain turnout the
county was about half finished. Work
generally began last week, altho some
farmers did some seeding the week be-
iore.
The wheat acreage of the county is
expected to he about the same as a
year ago. altho some farmers who
signed 10 seed q certain acreage Of fall
wheat were unable to do so because
of lack of seed. There is said TO be
some objection to the planting Of
spring wheat IN some quarters because
Of a belief that the government will
tail TO continue the guaranteed price
for wheat This fear is unfounded as
the government has announced the
continuance of the guaranteed price for
the entire year OF 1919.
Call For Seed Barley.
There have been frequent calls on
the county agents office for seed bar
ley. but there is none to be had. The
county agent has been unable 10 get
barley in any quantity. The oats acre
age is expected TO be about the same
as last year.
There will ne an increased planting
of soy beans, judging from the calls
for seed and the interest shown in
beans by farmers turnout the county.
Some are preparing TO plant soy beans
with corn to be hogged down.
Conditions generally are very salts
factory and the seeding OF small grain
probably is further advanced than or

THE KUL.I SINITARIUu DRIVE

Beginning early next Monday morning, a campaign will be launch
ed on Maui for subscriptions amounting to $4,000 to be used for the
enlargement and betcrment OF the institution that should mean more to
Maui citizens than any other on the isand-TiE kULA SANlIAK-
UNI.
10 the outside world the kua Sanhanum represents the regard
which Maui has for its citizens and its own heath-to the community
at large it stands for farsightedness, charity, human interest and SAM
taton. All these things the kua Santarium are symbolic OF, because
through its efforts. the scourgc OF tuberculosis is held down, and ii
the sanitarium obtains the proper support the disease can, in a large
measure, be stamped out.
1t is a blot on the advancement of Mau that on ums beautiful is
land. a literal Isle o my Dreams where nature has laid herself out
to present life in all its most beautiful aspects, the disease which
should be dreaded above all others is permitted TO flourish through
lack of attention. Such a condition presents a paradox which it is
hard for the visitor to reconcile with his surroundings, and the first
question he asks is "Nhy?'
I'm answer to which all Maui can now say IS, 'NC can take care
Of it; we haven't the facilities
Citizens OF Maui it is time you walked up on this island. 1t is
time YOU became alive to the fact that by your indifference and salts
faction with things as they are, you are creating for yourselves and
1t is time YOU put your shoulders to the wheel and provided facilities
to take care of the sCourge of Great White Plague with which your
island is overrun. II ii time you made a thorough search OF your camps
and your communities and routed Oft all suspects and, having provided
the facilities to combat the inrOads of tuberculosis, see that the suspects
are sent there for treatment. Your county nurses, your plantation
nurses are working as hard as they can to overcome the con-
ditons which they find, but the sanitarium and the nurses alike need
your help.
Just now the most crying need which you can supply is money with
which to help in the great work. If for no other reason, you should
contribute to this drive to show your appreciation and gratitude Of the
work which DIR. Durney and his wife have done at kula. How many
Of you men, how many of you women, young, ambitious, with all life
before you, would elect to bury yourself on the side of a mountain,
several thousand miles from the centres OF civilization and life, in or
der to battle with the disease scourge which has attacked a beautiful
island? 1t is doubtful If one OF the lei and women who read this
editorial would willingly do such a thing-yet that is just what DIR.
i)urney and Mrs. Durney did. They came here a bridal couple ten
years ago and have devoted their lives TO your welfare. Show your
Sanitarium a bigger and better place more able to cope with its prob
lens than it ever has done before.

ElIpTY PHRASES or THE WEALTHY

There appeared in a Honolulu paper a few days ago a picture OF
John d, Rockefeller, the leading Millionaire of America, which was
occasioned by the magnate having reached his S0th birthday. The
caption contained the advice from Oily John to the effect, that every
man in order to keep healthy and live as long as he has, should play
nine holes of golf every day.
1t generally affords the proetariat considerable amusement wher
they read the beautifully impractical sayings of the extremely wealthy
except when the savings arouse their ire. The question arising in ou1
editorial mind now is whether Nj. Rockefeller, in order to add to the
longevity of the lives of his workmen and employees will see to it that
they have the leisure time every day with which to follow out his advice
A Constant Reader also suggests that if he wanted to be phlanthropic
he might supply the golf clubs and balls, which at present are out OF
the reach of the working people.
Andrew Carnegie, whose fortune was second to John DIS, died
during the past week, and we feel sure there are many in the country
who will hear of his passing with regret. While Mr.. Carnegie made
big fortune, he nevertheless tried to accomplish some good with it il
his declining years. He made it possible for men and women to get
an education. He got some personal advertising out of it, it is true
hut nevertheless with his libraries, hero funds, endowments for colleges
he gave them the opportunity to advance themselves. The prohtaria
often wish the men OF wealth would act more and talk less, and con
inue to wonder why their wealth should give these men the right tc
annoy the honest working people with their silly advice.

VINO PAYS FOR THE STRIKES?

Canadian workingmen lost 100000 in wages in June and
slightly more than half that amount in the preceding month, accord
ing to estimates.
The Winnipeg strike alone cost the workingmen several million
chants, manufacturers and the public was at least 100 percent more
than the labor loss.
In June, the eighty strikes in Canada involved S7,917 men. women
and children. The official estimate shows a loss Of about 1,445,02l
working days. The average wage involved in the Winnipeg strike was
about S. a day.
In May there were 81 strikes involving 77,oSS workers who lost
S9SSl0 working days.

to be congratulated upon the efficiency, justice and fairness with which
