TO PREVENT ROBBING.

Clemson College, July 26.-NoW
that the main honey flow is over,
great care should be taken to pre-
vent bees from getting into the rob-
bing habit. All old comb, honey, old
frames, and other parts of the hive
should be put away and not left
where bees can get at them say the
bee SPECIALISTS of the Extension Ser
vice.
Excitment at the opening at this
season is very likely to be robbing
if the excited colony is weak one.
Bees crawl around and over the
hive trying to get in. If the at
tackled colony is putting up de-
fense, then there is a general fight
at the entrance, and it should be
stopped or it will grow worse and
in a few days the entire bee-yard
will 90 to robbing. This is very
serious and sometimes almost i'm
possible to stop.
% Be sure to remove all honey
and comb exposed in and near the
bee-yard.
(2) Stop the entrance to the at
tackled hive so that only two or
three bees can get thru at one time.
This enables a weak colony to es-
tablish an effective defense.
(3) If this does not stop it,
move the attacked colony to the
cellar or some remote place and
stop down the entrance to other
hives as already explained.

METRIC SYSTEM WOULD
HAVE FOILED KAISER

San Francisco, July 27.-The lack
of standards in weights and meas
ures among the Allies gave Germany
a great advantage in the waging of
world-war, according to the messages
received from prominent manufac-
turers of the United States by the
World Trade Club Of San Francisco.
One of them, large manufacturer
of material used for making war nlu-
nitions, President F. o. Wells of the
Greenfield, Mass. Tap, Die, Machine
Tool company goes so far as to de-
clare that the Kaiser would not have
dared to declare was if the United
States and Britannia had been stand
ardized with their allies in the vital
matter of weights and measures.
The World Trade Club, represent
ing 500 leading San Francisco manu-
featuring merchants, is promoting
a campaign for the worldwide adop-
ton of meter-liter-gram, the units
of the metric system of weights and
measures, now in use by practically
all nations of the world except the
United States and Great Britain.
The campaign has brought many
responses of support from men like
VIM. G. McAdoo, David Starr Jor-
dan, Nicholas Murray Butler, Ex-
president Eliot of Harvard, Henry
Van Dyke, Judge E. II. Gary, John
Hays Hammond, VIM. c. Redfield,
Theodore N. Vail, Otto II. Kahn,
George w. Perkins, DR.. Charles Il.

ter and many more.

WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
HAMPERED THE ALLIES

San Francisco, July 27-Congress-
man .Fiorello LaGuardia of New
York, former major in the Air Ser
vice in charge of fliers on the Italian
front, has thrown interesting light
upon the difficulties face by the Un-
tied States in cooperating with its
allies in the world war. Major La
Guardia has telegraphed the World
Trade Club Of San Francisco, an or
ganization rpresenting 500 leading
manufacturing merchants, pledging
his support to the campaign that the
organization is now waging for the
world wide adoption of the metric
system of weights and measures, now
used by all the world except the
United States and Britannia.
In his wire Major LaGuardia
points out, that the world war show
ed the imperative need Of standardi-
zation of weights and measues. He
advocates the metric system.
'I still have unpleasant memories
of the difficulty we experienced dur
ing the war;" he writes, ''of the loss
of time, the confusion, owing to diff
ferent systems of weights and meas
ures used by various allies. We lost
more time lin translating specifica-
tions and more errors were caused
on this account than by anything
else."
The World Trade Club is receiv-
ing similar testimony from a great
many persons who had experience
with the difficulty caused by our
present weights during the war.

Senator Spencer, Republican, after
a long talk with Mr.. Wilson today
about the treaty. The senator de-
clined to 60 into details as to the ex-
act steps being taken and both the
White House and the state depart
ment were silent on the subject.
There were indication however, that
the conversations with Japan, though
quite informal in character, had as
teir object such a declaration from
Tokyo as would satisfy China and
result in her acceptance of the
treaty.
Senator Spencer also discussed at
length with the president the sub
iect of reservation in senate ratifica-
ton of the treaty, taking with him
to the White House a draft of five
reservations drawn up and submitted
to the president, it is understood, at
the suggestion of Chairman Lodge Of
the foreign elations committee. The
draft is also said to have been shown
to other Republicans Of varying
shades of opinion, but Mr.. Spencer
made it clear in presenting them that
he alone stood sponsor for their
phraseology.
Much Ground Covorede.
The reservation covered the Mon
roe doctrine withdrawal, Shantung,
national determination Of domestic
issues and independence of action
under Article 10. Mr.. Spencer told
the president that without some such
cluded ratification would come guck-
ly. He said Mr.. Wilson promised to
give the proposed reservations his
earnest consideration and conveyed
qualifications the treaty never could
be ratified, while if they were IN
the impression that he personally was
not opposed to such a course except
for the complications that might re-
suit should the treaty be returned
for renegotiations.
Notice also was taken at the White
House during the day of senate dis
cussion of the defensive treaty with
France, which Senator Lodge and
others have charged the president is
withholding from the senate in dl'
rect violation of the treaty's own
terms, without making any explana
ton, White House officials made il
clear that Mr.. Wilson has no inten'
ton of submitting the Franco-Amer
lean agreement for senate ratifica
ton until consideration of the treaty
with Germany is we'll under way.

POULTRY NOTES.

Clemson College, July 26.-Chicks
can be Matched and grown as sue
cessfully in the summer months as in
any other season, says Prof. F. c.
Hare, of the Poultry Husbandry Div
ision. Shade is essential. A clean
grass range, and a good dry mash are
helpful.
The Clemson Egg Mash is 4 good
growing food for chicks, as well as
an egg-producing food for hens
Feed it. dry. Keep it in box con-
stantly before the poultry.
The formula is: cottonseed meal;
cornmeal; wheat bran; fine wheat
middlings, of each 25 pounds;
ground oats, 10 pounds; fine ground
oyster shells, or ground agricultural
lime, 6 pounds, and fine table salt,
/ pound.
The cottonseed meal must be
prime meal made from good seed.
If YOU cannot obtain satisfactory
cottonseed meal, substitute for it rs
pounds of soybean meal, or IS
pounds of either peanut meal or
peameal. The peanut meal is recon-
mended. You can use so pounds of
any wheat product for the brand
and middlings.
If you do not intend to hatch
more chicks, keep the rooster away
from the laying hens. The hens lay
as we'll and the eggs keep better.
Don't fail to soak Matching egsg
in warm water for two minutes just
before they are due to hatch. This
softens the shell and the skins in
side the shell. It is especially neces-
sary in warm weather.
Plan to raise so to 100 chickens
this fall. Set the first eggs in Au-
gust, and continue setting until
October. These chicks will grow
well and they will make excellent
frys. The pullets will lay next
spring. Meats of al kinds. are be-
coming scarce and difficult to buy.
Frys can be grown cheaply, and you
can have them all year.
An incubator and portable brood
ers will produce chicks when you
wish them. Write the Poultry Di-
vision of Clemson College for in
formation.

Manuel Cravalho and Frank sylvia
and J. Manuel Joaquin filed a petition
of habeas corpus before the Circuit
Court few days ago on the ground
that they were unlawfully detained by
the Sheriff of the County of Maui.
The judge sustained the petition and
discharged the defendants. Shortly
thereafter a warrant, sworn to by
Deputy County Attorney Frank
Crockett before the Circuit Court sit
ting as committing magistrate. issued
against Cravalho, sylvia and JOAQUIN
a demurrer was filed to the charge
which was sustained by the court as
to two Of the defendants, Frank sylvia
ana Manuel Joaquin, for the reason
that the affidavits attached to the
charge were insufficient. The hearing
Of Cravalho then proceeded before
Judge Burr and consumed about four
days. After the prosecution rested

own motion to allow the prosecution
to prove the identity of the defendant
and that the crime of burglary had
been committed. The court charged
The Deputy County Attorney with
taking up the time of the court un-

manner in which he presented the
case. Mr.. Crockett attempted to prove

by proper questions, the court finally
examined the witness himself and
from him adduced the necessary evil

Maui Is Island
Polo Champion
Good Work By Valley Isle Team Wins
Big HOnOr-0ppOnents Give Hard
Battle And Exciting Game
Especial to the Maui News.)

Especial to the Maui News)
There was a buzz of excitement in
the hotel lobbies and among sporting
circles in Honolulu, particularly the
outside island visitors, for a week be-
fore the polo game which was played
Wednesday between Maui and Kauai
teams for the championship OF the
Hawaiian islands, the game going to
the final score of II to 6% in favor of
Maui. A tensity in the atmosphere
was apparent to even the casual visi-
tor and so reused the curiosity that
there was a large gallery on hand to
see the game. Many mainland visitors
followers of the game in California,
were enabled to view rare game, one
where opponents were evenly match
ed both as to horscmanship, horse
flesh and polo skill. The members
of both Maui and Kauai teams are
in the saddle for many hours a day
and are proficient horsemen, so that
the contest between these two teams
was really a battle worth watching.
The Valley Island was the favorite in
the betting, but before the game ad-
mitted that the Kauai team stood as
fair a chance of winning as they
themselves. Charles Rice of Kauai
and Frank Baldwin of Maui had "a
private tussle every time they met,
and there We're plenty of thrills and
lots of excitement.
James Spalding of Kauai has proved
himself star this year and did some
fine work. Malina, an old enemy kept
the Maui men busy guarding him, but
the brilliant work of edward Baldwin
served to pull Maui out of several bad
holes. Sam Baldwin and the Rice
boys played about the same style of
good clean polo work and were de-
pended on in the pinches several
| times. Pat Collins, whose polo work
| has been much improved during the
past season, gave a good accounting
of himself and showed that Maui has
good stuff in her all around.
Altogether it was great game. and
the series has shown that the Maui
poloists are no mean opponents. Dur
| ing this game Frank Baldwin rode his
favorite polo pony Garry the News"
This pony known to all Maui-ites who
are interested in good horseflesh, play
ed in the international matches at
Meaddowbrook before the war period.
