been making copious notes and taken
a series of pictures, all of which he
hopes to embody in special report
to Washington. Readers of the Garden

in this paper on Kauai and it's natural
conditions, which should prove of uni

preaching successful finish. An g.
inch wood pipe is being laid from the
ditch and tunnel line in the German

This new line will be connected with
the reservoir part way down, which
has been used as the supply for the
present old system, so that in case of
any temporary pilikia to the sources

A concrete reservoir is being put in
at the intake of the pipe line which
will hold a million and half gallons,
with stand pipe drawing the water
well up from the bottom so as to
avoid the settings. There will be suit
able washout appliances, SO that the
reservoir can be cleaned out whenever
necessary.
The ultimate source of the water 10

fenced to keep out cattle or other con.
tam.nation. There are no people liv.
ing on that line.
