IN the United States is publicly
owned. It is estimated that the mer-
charitable new timber remaining in
the country approximately 2,215 bill
lion boa;d feet. Somewhat less than
tEree-fourths Of this tremendous r.
source is regarded as virgin stump
age; the remainder is largely second
growth of relatively inferior quality.
Over sixty per cent of our timber
supply lies west of the great plains
and half is to be found in the three
Pacific Coast states About one-fifth
of the standing timber in the United
States is hardwood and lies in the
eastern states, there being no ap-
nreciabe amount of hardwood species
ir the forests of the Rocky Mountains
and of the Pacific Coast.
An estimate Of our timber supply
from the standpoint of acreage also
envolves tremendous figures. The
original forests of the United States
have been estimated at 500 million
acres. Today it is thought that only
4G3 million acres remain, and of this
area only about 1877 million acres are
virgin forest. 1t is believed that only
about one-siXth Of the virgin forests
remain.
The most alarming reduction has
occurred in the pine forests of thu
South, which since the depletion of the
northeastern forests have contribute
the bulk of the building and struc
! tural timber. 1t is estimated that
the southern pine forests have heeN
reduced from an original stand of $40
billion board feet to 1870 billion boar!
! feet and it is predicted by forestry
authorities that in ten years more the
! PRODUCTION of southern pine will no
! longer exceed the domestic require
ments.

Japanese Boy
Burned to Death
at Wailua Saturday

Sokichi Nishida, a seventeen
year old Japanese boy was burn
ed to death last Saturday morn
ing at two O'Clock when a fire de-
stroyed his fathers house at Wal
lua. The boy was burned to a
crisp and the house had fallen in
before his body could be recover
ed.
The fire was of unknown orr
gin. The family consisting of X.
Nishida, a well known Wailua
rice planter, his wife, Sokichi
Nishida and two smaller child
ren, were all asleep in the house
at the time of it's origin. One of
the small children was first
awakened by the smoke and
flames. His cries soon awaken
ed the family who ran out doors
in their night clothes. AS the
father went out he carried a new
sewing machine which he had re.
Gently purchased with him.
BY the time the family had got
out of doors the fire had gained
considerable headway, envelOp-
ing the entire structure in flames.
The father decided to go back
into the building to try to recover
some of the personal belongings.
SOkichi shouted to him to stay
out and then ran in himself. The
flames were then sweeping the
doorway, and the boy was evil
IDENTIFY suffOcated soon after he
got inside the house. He was not
heard nor seen again until after
the roof fell and the fire had en-
tirely destroyed the building.
His body, when finally found,
was burned to crisp.
The boy was born in Lihue Il
little less than seventeen years
ago. He moved with his father
to Wailua when he was a small
child. He just graduated from
the Kapaa school last year and
has been helping his father in the
rice work since that time.

CANE FIRE THREATENS
UPPER KAPAA HOMESTEAD

A cane fire that for time threat
ened the entire upper section of the
Kapaa homesteads burned off about
sixty-five acres before being. eXtin-
guished last Tuesday afternoon, July
nineteenth.
The fire started on the homestead
of X. Waiwaiwole where a harvesting
gang was working. 1t was thought
to have been started by one of the
gang carelessly throwing match
into some trash. A high wind was
blowing at the time and in a short
time the fire was beyond control. 1t
burned off the cane on the home
steads of C. l.. Kelekoma and Mrs.
Akeo Ohai in the second series and
jumped the east branch of the Wailua
river and burned the cane on the
homestead of Ben Palmeria in the
first Wailua series. The loss on the
first two will not be so great as the
cane was part of the 1921 crop, but
Palmeria will have a much greater
loss as his cane would not be harvest
ed until 1922.

TRUCK RUNS INTO CAR
STANDING NEAR WHARF

Last Tuesday afternoon at Nawili-
will light Ford truck belonging to
the Waimea Stables was run into the
Hudson automobile belonging to E.
II. w. Broadbent. The damages
were all done to the heavier car on
.ho right front fender and side due
to the fact that it was hit while
standing still.
Mr.. Broadbent had parked his car
in front of the Waimea Stables while
he went down to the wharf. The
truck was driven up to the side of
the Hudson and stopped. The dri-
yer evidently did not have his emer-
gency brake very tight for when he
started the engine the car shot for
ward into the Hudson. No one was
in the touring car at the time and the
only damages were a bent fender and
smashed running board.

JAPNHESE FINED FOR
NEEDLESS DRIVING

Yoshiwo Nagao was arrested near
the. Tip Top in Lihue on Thursday last
for needless driving, disobeying an
officer and interfering with traffic.
Bail in the sum of 500 was exacted
on the spot.
1t seems that herd of cattle were
passing while Nagao came at a rapid
rate from the Kapaia side. In spite Of
warning by officers, Nagao did not
slacken speed perceptibly and bump
ed into several of the animals be.
sides interfering with the right of
way of another car.
In the court on Friday before Judge
Hjorth, Nagao showed but little spir-
it although he only reluctantly plead
ed guilty to the charge of Needless
driving. A fine of $25 and 81 cost
were imposed by his Honor. There
is a possibility of Nagao losing his Ii
cense also as as yet he has not re-
newed it and from the looks of the
Sheriff's face it is doubtful whether
Nagao will get it as he is an old Of

Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, who is
actively engaged in blocking the pas
sage of the Hawaii alien labor reso-
luton, favorably reported out of the
house immigration committee, has
refused to accept the invitation of
l.. A. Thurston 30 visit Hawaii and
personally look into the labor condi-
tions. His reply to Mr. Thurston's
invitation reads as follows:
"Your telegram received.
"If the Associated Press has report
ed me as saying that labor conditions
in Hawaii are bad and labor is ex-
plotted and oppressed, have been
misquoted.
From reports reaching me, | do
not believe that labor conditions in
Hawaii are exceptionally bad where

your wonderful islands.
"The position of labor and the peo-
pie generally of the United States re-
garding the importation of large

rantable as well as prejudicial to the
