HAWAIIAN RAINFALL
 GREATEST IN WORLD

HONOLULU, T. H.-One locality in the Hawaiian islands registers the greatest rainfall in the world. while other places almost rival the Sahara in dryness, says L. V. Dan- gerfield, head of the weather bu- reau here.
 The rainfall on Mount Waialeale, Island of Kauai, has averaged 476 inches a year for the past several years, said Dangerfield. A higher record than this was established in 1918 to Puukukui, where there was precipitation of 562 inches, while eight and one-half miles away to the south the rainfall in 1912 reg istered only two and one-half inches
 Heavy precipitation on the wind ward sides of all the islands is due, said Dangerfeld, to the warm, moist trade winds cooling as they rush up the steep slopes. This causes the moisture in the air to con- dense, and when it reaches a suffi- cient altitude to fall in a torrential downpour.

DROUGHT IN HAWAII
 IS FATAL TO CATTLE

HONOLULU, T. H.-Cattle are reported dying rapidly in the Ko- hala district, Island of Hawaii, as a result of a continued drought.
 According to stockmen, it is not the lack of drinking water that is proving fatal to the animals. but the effect of the drought upon the range grass. There is said to be scarcely any nutriment in it.
 The cattle are so weak when they go to the water holes that they become begged and cannot pull themselves out again.
 Twenty-seven head of cattle are reported to have been lost in this way at one water hole.

MARTIN |S BACK FROM KANT|SHNA;
 TELLS OF WORK

Among the recent arrivals in Ne mana from the kantishna district is Harry Martin, who mushed across country from the diggings with a hand-sleigh. He "necked it" prac- tically the entire distance and spent two nights in the timber for want of a better lodging place; but the weather was not bad and he reached the Government railroad none the worse for his experience. He was six days on the trail
 Martin, who went in to the Kan tishna to drive team for Ed Bart lett, says that ore is now moving steadily from the Aitken mine to the landing at Roosevelt. The out put of the mine averages about 100 sacks of galena ore per day. which is about all that Bartlett is able to take care of with his present outfit. He has two teams engaged in moving the ore from the mine to the foot of the hill, and three four horse rigs at work on the trail, working in relay.
 The ore is moved down the hill on double-enders. two horses to a sleigh. Between them, they man age to prevent an accumulation of ore at the orehouse, but the work is hard on both horses and rigs be- cause of the steepness' of the hill trail.
 The ore varies greatly in weight, Martin says. Some of the sacks weigh 100 pounds, and some of them much more than 100 pounds. He tells of encountering one that he could not lift at all.
 The weather in the Kantishna. during the time that Martin was there. was very good. Fairly mod crate. not very windy. and only a normal snowfall. The wind blows a little all the time, he says. but he did not experience any severe storms. He did not notice the cold much until he approached the rail- road.
 Toward the end of his long mush, Martin was overtaken by Billy Me Donough, who made the trip out with a horse. Had he deferred his start a day or two, he could have accompanied McDonough, the entire distance, but, unfortunately for Mar tin. neither was aware of the other'q plans.

skirts have been abbreviated and
sometimes boomers have taken the
place of petticoats. stays have been
discarded and the waist line has been
lowered. So you see it is the women
who have taken up the mode of child

have dressed up like their mothers.
And so the mode has gone for the

He would steal one from Buster Bear

the feeling that in way he was
getting even with Buster Bear for
shaking him out Of that tree a few
days before. If he didn't steal one the
only way he could get one would be
to dig one out for himself after Buster
had left, and this he had no mind to
do. He wouldn't know just where to
dig. Besides, he had no desire to dig
in that wet. black ground.
Chatterer ran down from that tree
and hid in . clump Of ferns from
which he could watch Buster. There

had guessed just what Buster would
do. The instant Buster started for

was safely hidden up in a hemlock
tree by the time Buster had made UP
his mind that there was no one in or
around that clump of ferns
Chatterer chuckled Wickedly as he
prepared to take a bite of that root.
Already he felt better, because he
had done something to get even with
Buster Bear. He knew that he was
going to enjoy that little root all the
more because he had stolen it from
buster Bear. He bit into it.
For q second or two Chatterer
couldn't get his breath. Then such a
racket as broke out in that hemlock
tree! Buster looked up, in surprise
just in time to see that little root drop.

Chatterer the Red Squirrel. hidden
in hemlock tree, watched Buster
Bear dig up roots Of a certain little
plant which grew in the damp earth
in a swampy place near the Laughing
Brook and smack his lips as he ate
them. Just watching Buster enjoy
that meal made Chatterer hungry.
Seeing other people eat and enjoy
their food will make any one hungry.
1t was quite plain that Buster liked
those little roots. In the first place
he worked hard to get them If he
hadn't liked them he wouldn't have
dug over all that ground to get them.
In the second place he snacked his
lips over them in a way that would
have told any one within hearing that
he was enjoying something.
Now Chatterer had been so busy
spying on Buster Bear that he hadn't
eaten as he should have. So he grew
and hungrier rs he watched
Buster until he felt that he must have
one Of those roots. Then, too, his
curiosity grew with his appetite. He
wondered just how these roots tasted.
