IN A By the courtesy of Senator C. A.I IUce. we are able to give an Intelligent , outline of some of the Important legls-- ! P iation accomplished at the recent, session of the legislature, especially j such as affects Kauai. In the lino of homestead legislation, after a great deal of discussion and contention to and fro, the bill finally passed petitioning Congress in Wash- ington to amend the Organic Act by giving the local administration dis cretion to hold out 20 per cent ot any given tract so that It may be leased to the plantations. This discretion Is to bo placed In the hands of a commission to consist of the Governor, the Land Commis sioner and the Land Board. This same commission Is to exer cise discretion as to the fitness of tho candidate for homesteading, to the end that inefficient and Incapable candi dates, and adventurous speculators may be eliminated. The Bill fixing a nominal price on homesteads, brought in by Senator Coney, after various changes, finally developed Into fifty per cent of the full appraised value of the land, to which In some cases, the cost of the home- stead roads might be added. After many ups and downs the Farm Loan Act was passed. The substance of which is that tho Government may loan to the homesteader up to CO per cent of the paid up value of his land and improvements, to a maximum ot $3,000 at C per cent, on the basis of a 10 years loan. A fund shall be created for this purpose by setting aside 20 per cent of the Government leases and 33 3 per cent of the sale of homesteads. Fifteen thousand dollars was ap propriated for homestead roads and bridges for the Kuamoo tract that about Puu Pilo, beyond the second Wailua on which It is expected tho drawings will be made In October. Also an appropriation for a school for this section. Fifteen thousand dollars was ap propriated for macadamizing the road up through tho homesteads back of the Kapaa school, and $15,000 for the same purpose for the road running up back of the Kapaa village. Throe thousand dollars was granted for macadamizing at Anahola, and $5,000 at Kalaheo. Thirty thousand dollars was cccurftd out of the loan fund for the Puu kn Pele road to the intent that we may have a good macadamized road to that region. Tho amount for tho Lihue school was increased to $75,000. Tho Kapaa landing Is assured, with $182,000, and there Is an appropriation of 200,000 for terminal facilities for Nawiliwili Harbor, and $10,900 for the condemnation and purchase of 45 ncres of the Ka:ioa estate property ad- joining the harbor. A bill was passed providing for a special, tax levy on Kauai property valuations to amount to $30,000 a year for four years for necessary Improve- - ments at tho Mahelona Hospital. Tills will mean an addition to our tax rate of about 0.13 per cent. This. It Is sup-- 1 posed will put tho institution in good shape. In addition to tills extra taxation there will have to bo a very material increase of the rato to meet tho in- crease of teachers' ealaries, which will have to be retroactive in a moasuro to cover the last quarter of tho cur-- , ront year.

Answer: Tin to tin. It was just about that time of the day when a Ford truck belonging to the ICppaa Purchasing Guild and a Ford rent car belonging to Fujita, the "Ulul ol l" ' lunrKci, came lugeuiur wun u iiiigiuy bang Qn th(j cornor Qardon l). ian(1 ofiice.

There have been several smashups at this corner on account of heedless driving. It Is very noticeable, how ever, that since the latest smash, all jitneys stop, look, and listen before emerging from this lane. Tableaux at the Japanese Church There was a simple Sunday School evening at tho Llhuo Japanese Church Sunday evening, under the manage ment of Mr. M. G. Santos, superln tendent of the school. There were half .a dozen simple but Impressive tableau scenes. Illustrative of tho life of Christ, rendered mostly by the boys and girls or the dormitory, under tho direction and training of Mr. and Mrs. Lydgate. Mrs. Togo performed very skilfully on the koto (the Japanese harp). Miss Shin Tokika sang with much feeling and sweetness, one of the Brown and Curry hymns, and Miss Marguerite Leong rendered a stirring march on the organ in good style. A series of lantern slide pictures from the Dore Bible, given by Mr. Lydgate completed tho evening. The church was filled to overflowing, and the children especially were very ap- preciative spectators. :0: Meeting of Homesteaders Prospective homesteaders of Wat-me- a District hold a meeting at the Waimea Court House last Thursday evening to discuss legislative mattors recently enacted regarding tho open- ing up of tho Kekaha homesteads. Among the chief features of tho meet- ing was a report by Wm. V. Hardy, ltydrographer for Kauai, regarding his recent trip to the legislature with W. O. Crowoll In behalf of the pros pective homesteaders of Waimea Dis- tinct. As Mr. Hardy had left Hono- lulu before tho legislature had com- pleted the session he could not state definitely all things that had been done by tho legislature as a result of his visit to Honolulu, but said tho general result of his trip was a better understanding of tho Kekaha situa- tion by members of the legislature and much favorable legislation for tho prospective homesteaders. :0: Reception at Makaweii There was a conference nnd recopt-io- n for Supt.

IKIhlA MEETS WGAUGHEY A j. The Mokihana meeting on Friday afternoon was an unusually large and successful one; a renewed demonstra- tion of the progressive and harmoni- ous character of the Lihue women. There must have been over a hundred of them as pretty and varegated as a beautiful flower garden. The president, Mrs. Swan, was in the chair and. conducted the meeting very gracefully. Mrs. K. C. Ahana sang several selections, and as always, was received with enthusiasm. After the reading of the minutes and other routine business, Mr. Vaughan MacCaughey, Superintendent of Public Instruction, was introduced as the speaker of the day and was received with much favor. He began by assuring the Mokihana Club and Its friends that he was no stranger to Kauai; that he had long known and appreciated its charm-an- d beauty; ever since the time, some years ago when ho made a somewhat extended tour of the Island and made the intimate acquaintance, not only of the more accessible sections, but also the more remote attractions of the Napall region, places like Wainlha mauka and Kalalau, which are seldom Visited by white men. By way of introduction to the speci fic matters on which he wished to speak, he emphasized tho great acces- sion of new interest, which was evi dent everywhere, in the purposes and problems of education. In a new and more vivid way it was dawning on Iho world that education Is absolutely Indlspenslblc to success, and that the problems of education are ot vital Im- portance to every one, not only In their own personal interest, but in tho interest of all those about them. He .congratulated Kauai on having such a club as the Mokihana, with a broad vision and high ideals; it would mean great things for the cause of educa- tion, as well as for the other higher interests of life. He wished to speak very simply and directly of some of the specific in- terests of education on Kauai under ten heads. 1. Rural Schools. The rural school after all, Is the key of the whole national situation, and the foundadtlon of our whole civiliza tion. Heretofore, in these Islands, as elsewhere, wo have given the weight of our attention to tho city schools, mostly in Honolulu. The best teach- ers, the best appliances, and the best equipment were reserved for the city almost anything was good enough for the country. This is all wrong. The very best should be given to tho country. 2. An Adequate School Plant and Equipment. I am very glad to hear from Mr. Wlshard that you look forward to hav- ing here at Lihue a fine two story building, consisting of two wings with a connecting link tor of fices, assembly room, etc. That is the way to build, permanently, durably and adequately for tho future." The day of the cheap and Inadequate bung-lo- has gone by. It was allright per- haps as an emergency makeshift nicas' ure; the best that could bo dono under the circumstances; but you see how It works out, in two or threo years you are left with a lot of useless junk on your hands. It Is high time that we should settle down to a permanent, long range policy of school equipment. Tho schools are with us not for today or tomorrow merely, but for the long future. A short-sighte- hand-t- mouth policy is extravagant, wasteful and woefully inefficient. 3. Socialize the School Grounds Tho school grounds are generally central, public, and more or less im proved and equipped, yet how much of the time, out of school hours or term time, they Ho absolutely idle and ! unused- - A sort of exclusivo school I ownorship has perhaps prevailed too niuch. Wo should encourage tho Idea t,ot (lin uflmnl prrnmiilB liplnmr in Hm public, and give the qubllc facilities for using them. There Is no reason In tho world why these school grounds should not be used for tho various popular games, base ball, volley hall,' basket ball, lawn tennK etc. Do that and you awaken a much more direct and vital public Interest In tho schools and In their needs. The tax-pay- who uses tho school grounds himself will bo much more ready to spend money on them. (Continued on page 5) I Local News I Gathered from here and there ... ,I'4"5-S"t"t- .;!

He re signed about two weeks ago and is now busily occupied in his campaign' for nomination for tho office of treas urer of this county. There was an Interesting and ap preclativu memorial service at the Koloa church Sunday afternoon in memory of tho life and influence o Mrs. J. K. Kula, who was for many years an active member of that church. Both Itev. J. M. Lydgate and Hev. S. K. Kaullll participated in the service, and there was some excellent singing. Ka'waihau Politicians Busy With so many seeking election for tho office of Supervisor for the Kawal huu District It Is not surprising to find early activity amongst the candidates Both J. Hodrlques and F. Mendcs have been exerting their energies during tho past week in campaigning. Tho formor has already represented tho District, whilst Mondes Is not a novice In soliciting votes for this office. Both apparently, have strong .support and will doubtless put up an ovenly con tested light. Georgo K. Eweliko was tho last to announce his Intention to run and, It is stated, has strong sup port In his homo town Anahola J. F. Bettcncourt, Jr., the present incumbent, Joe Bodrlgues, and S. K, Lucas, tho lono Democrat, are actively engaged In their campaign, and fight at the polls promises to bo a close one. One noteworthy Incident Is that notwithstanding tho keen rivalry the parties have abstained from "mud-slinging- " nnd are conducting their campaign with merit. FILIPINO DINNER TO IE T MANAGERS Last Friday evening the Filipino National Association gave a dinner, at tho Lihue Hotel, complimentary to the managers of tho several planta tions on Knual. The occasion was the celebration of the establishment of a branch of the society on Kauai and the Introduction of the society to the plan- tation managers, so that they might become acquainted with Its Ideals, alms and purposes. Itev. Nicholas Olson, founder and president of tho society, acted as host for the evening and Mr. Valentine Co- - bacha was toastmaBter. Unfortunately, not all of the plan tatlon managers wore able to be pres- ent; those attending were Messrs. Moler of Lihue, Larsen ot K'.lauoa. Alexander ot McBryde, and Ewart of Waimea. Other guests present were. Sheriff Hice, Philip IUce, Hev. S. H. Aim, and others whoso names are not at hand. Many members of the so- ciety were also present. After a complimentary introduction by the toastmaster, Sheriff Hice was, called upon as the first speaker cf the evening and In replying he briefly out- lined the position of the Filipinos as members ot he community and com mented favorably upon the loyalty they showed during the war, and also upon the present general tendency to wards decrease in the number of crimes committed by Filipinos. During tho course of the dinner the toastmaster complimented Mr. Larson on tho excellent treatment accorded the Filipinos nt Kllauca and said that this treatment had resulted In Kllauea having gathered together one ot the best groups of Filipinos in the Terri tory. Mr. Larson was then called upon for a few remarks and responded with a brief statement of what had been done for the laborers at Kllauea In the way of providing places of amusement, etc., and said that he had found that the Filipinos responded readily to anything that was done for them and showed It In loyal support of the management and Increased eff- iciency in their vork. Tho other managers were then call ed upon In turn and each responded with a few brief remarks appropriate to the occasion and commented upon the increased efficiency of the Fili- pinos as laborers, their loyalty during tho war, and their tendency to adapt themselves to local conditions and requirements and harmonize with the other races employed on the planta- tions. The address of the evening was then given by Rev. Nicholas Dison, who, speaking ns tho founder and the presi- dent of the Filipino National Associa- tion, said that ho took tho opportunity to present the association, its ideals. alms and purposes, to those present' that they might have a better under standing of the Filipino and the as- sociation. He said that to deal w'th the Filipino understandlngly ono must first have a knowledge ot his character and the history that has moulded that character; for instance, 'tho years of Spanish oppression have left their mark upon the Filipino race, which appears in the hesitancy with which the average Filipino approaches one of another race and also In the ex- treme sensitiveness of the Filipinos. Ho said that the Filipino could not be forced to do nnythlng against his will, if ho did not understand why his own view of tho matter was not correct, but that ho would respond readily If the matter was fairly, considerately and clearly explained. That a great deal ot the trouble with Filipinos In the past was due to Continuing, Mr. Dlsou said that the Filipino National Association was founded as was the Y. M. C. A. through prayer by a man, for men, and was tho result of the realization of tho high percentage of crimes com- mitted In these islands by Filipinos, and and earnest desire to bring this realization home to all Filipinos In the Islands, so that unitedly, through an association, the better element might instil in all a pride, of race and that understanding their own faults and weaknesses they might strive to overcome them and through an Im- provement of themselves win for tho Filipinos n better reputation and high er standing inrougnnut an tneso is- lands, and this would redound to the credit of their race and their beloved native land. Mr. Dlson said that ho wnntod to (Continued on Page G)

Meeting of Homesteaders

Prospective homesteaders of Wat-me- a

District hold a meeting at theWaimea Court House last Thursdayevening to discuss legislative mattorsrecently enacted regarding tho open-

ing up of tho Kekaha homesteads.Among the chief features of tho meet-ing was a report by Wm. V. Hardy,ltydrographer for Kauai, regardinghis recent trip to the legislature withW. O. Crowoll In behalf of the prospective homesteaders of Waimea Dis-

tinct. As Mr. Hardy had left Hono-

lulu before tho legislature had com-

pleted the session he could not statedefinitely all things that had beendone by tho legislature as a result ofhis visit to Honolulu, but said thogeneral result of his trip was a betterunderstanding of tho Kekaha situa-tion by members of the legislatureand much favorable legislation for thoprospective homesteaders.

IKIhlAMEETS WGAUGHEY

Aj.

The Mokihana meeting on Fridayafternoon was an unusually large andsuccessful one; a renewed demonstra-tion of the progressive and harmoni-ous character of the Lihue women.There must have been over a hundredof them as pretty and varegated asa beautiful flower garden.

The president, Mrs. Swan, was inthe chair and. conducted the meetingvery gracefully. Mrs. K. C. Ahanasang several selections, and as always,was received with enthusiasm.

After the reading of the minutes andother routine business, Mr. VaughanMacCaughey, Superintendent of PublicInstruction, was introduced as thespeaker of the day and was receivedwith much favor.

He began by assuring the MokihanaClub and Its friends that he was nostranger to Kauai; that he had longknown and appreciated its charm-an- d

beauty; ever since the time, someyears ago when ho made a somewhatextended tour of the Island and madethe intimate acquaintance, not only ofthe more accessible sections, but alsothe more remote attractions of theNapall region, places like Wainlhamauka and Kalalau, which are seldomVisited by white men.

By way of introduction to the specific matters on which he wished tospeak, he emphasized tho great acces-sion of new interest, which was evident everywhere, in the purposes andproblems of education. In a new andmore vivid way it was dawning onIho world that education Is absolutelyIndlspenslblc to success, and that theproblems of education are ot vital Im-

portance to every one, not only In

their own personal interest, but in thointerest of all those about them. He

.congratulated Kauai on having sucha club as the Mokihana, with a broadvision and high ideals; it would meangreat things for the cause of educa-tion, as well as for the other higherinterests of life.

He wished to speak very simply anddirectly of some of the specific in-

terests of education on Kauai underten heads.1. Rural Schools.

The rural school after all, Is the keyof the whole national situation, andthe foundadtlon of our whole civilization. Heretofore, in these Islands, aselsewhere, wo have given the weightof our attention to tho city schools,mostly in Honolulu. The best teach-ers, the best appliances, and the bestequipment were reserved for the city

almost anything was good enoughfor the country. This is all wrong.The very best should be given to thocountry.2. An Adequate School Plant and

Equipment.I am very glad to hear from Mr.

Wlshard that you look forward to hav-

ing here at Lihue a fine two storybuilding, consisting of twowings with a connecting link tor offices, assembly room, etc. That is theway to build, permanently, durablyand adequately for tho future." Theday of the cheap and Inadequate bung-lo-

has gone by. It was allright per-

haps as an emergency makeshift nicas'ure; the best that could bo dono underthe circumstances; but you see how It

works out, in two or threo years you

are left with a lot of useless junk onyour hands. It Is high time that we

should settle down to a permanent,long range policy of school equipment.Tho schools are with us not for todayor tomorrow merely, but for the longfuture. A short-sighte- hand-t-

mouth policy is extravagant, wastefuland woefully inefficient.3. Socialize the School Grounds

Tho school grounds are generallycentral, public, and more or less improved and equipped, yet how muchof the time, out of school hours orterm time, they Ho absolutely idle and

! unused- - A sort of exclusivo schoolI ownorship has perhaps prevailed too

niuch. Wo should encourage tho Ideat,ot (lin uflmnl prrnmiilB liplnmr in Hm

public, and give the qubllc facilitiesfor using them. There Is no reason In

tho world why these school groundsshould not be used for tho variouspopular games, base ball, volley hall,'basket ball, lawn tennK etc.

Do that and you awaken a muchmore direct and vital public InterestIn tho schools and In their needs.

The tax-pay- who uses tho schoolgrounds himself will bo much moreready to spend money on them.

FILIPINO DINNER TO

IET MANAGERS

Last Friday evening the FilipinoNational Association gave a dinner,at tho Lihue Hotel, complimentary tothe managers of tho several plantations on Knual. The occasion was thecelebration of the establishment of abranch of the society on Kauai and theIntroduction of the society to the plan-

tation managers, so that they mightbecome acquainted with Its Ideals,alms and purposes.

Itev. Nicholas Olson, founder andpresident of tho society, acted as hostfor the evening and Mr. Valentine Co- -

bacha was toastmaBter.Unfortunately, not all of the plan

tatlon managers wore able to be pres-ent; those attending were Messrs.Moler of Lihue, Larsen ot K'.lauoa.Alexander ot McBryde, and Ewart ofWaimea. Other guests present were.Sheriff Hice, Philip IUce, Hev. S. H.Aim, and others whoso names are notat hand. Many members of the so-

ciety were also present.After a complimentary introduction

by the toastmaster, Sheriff Hice was,called upon as the first speaker cf theevening and In replying he briefly out-

lined the position of the Filipinos asmembers ot he community and commented favorably upon the loyaltythey showed during the war, and alsoupon the present general tendency towards decrease in the number ofcrimes committed by Filipinos.

During tho course of the dinner thetoastmaster complimented Mr. Larsonon tho excellent treatment accordedthe Filipinos nt Kllauca and said thatthis treatment had resulted In Kllaueahaving gathered together one ot thebest groups of Filipinos in the Territory. Mr. Larson was then calledupon for a few remarks and respondedwith a brief statement of what hadbeen done for the laborers at KllaueaIn the way of providing places ofamusement, etc., and said that he hadfound that the Filipinos respondedreadily to anything that was done forthem and showed It In loyal support ofthe management and Increased eff-

iciency in their vork.Tho other managers were then call

ed upon In turn and each respondedwith a few brief remarks appropriateto the occasion and commented uponthe increased efficiency of the Fili-

pinos as laborers, their loyalty duringtho war, and their tendency to adaptthemselves to local conditions andrequirements and harmonize with theother races employed on the planta-tions.

The address of the evening was thengiven by Rev. Nicholas Dison, who,speaking ns tho founder and the presi-dent of the Filipino National Associa-tion, said that ho took tho opportunityto present the association, its ideals.alms and purposes, to those present'that they might have a better understanding of the Filipino and the as-

sociation. He said that to deal w'ththe Filipino understandlngly ono mustfirst have a knowledge ot his characterand the history that has moulded thatcharacter; for instance, 'tho years ofSpanish oppression have left theirmark upon the Filipino race, whichappears in the hesitancy with whichthe average Filipino approaches oneof another race and also In the ex-

treme sensitiveness of the Filipinos.Ho said that the Filipino could not beforced to do nnythlng against his will,if ho did not understand why his ownview of tho matter was not correct,but that ho would respond readily Ifthe matter was fairly, consideratelyand clearly explained. That a greatdeal ot the trouble with Filipinos Inthe past was due to

Continuing, Mr. Dlsou said that theFilipino National Association wasfounded as was the Y. M. C. A.through prayer by a man, for men,and was tho result of the realizationof tho high percentage of crimes com-

mitted In these islands by Filipinos,and and earnest desire to bring thisrealization home to all Filipinos In

the Islands, so that unitedly, throughan association, the better elementmight instil in all a pride, of race andthat understanding their own faultsand weaknesses they might strive toovercome them and through an Im-

provement of themselves win for thoFilipinos n better reputation and higher standing inrougnnut an tneso is-

lands, and this would redound to thecredit of their race and their belovednative land.

As combustion starts with the lowest boilingpoints and flashes on through the gas, the con-tinuous chain of bcilinjj points from the lowto the high is necessary for instantaneous,full-power- combustion. Only a straight-distille- d,

ry gasoline can have the contin-uous, uniform chain of boiling points.

The United States GovernmentStandard Specifications

for GasolineThe United States Government standard

specifications for gasoline are based on boilingpoints not gravity. Drafted as they were byimpartial Government experts, they are gener-ally considered.in the light of conditions today,as the most practical standard for gasoline.They insure an efficient and satisfactory gaso-line and at the same time have due regard forthe best utilization of our petroleum resources,and the maintenance of reasonable prices to theconsumer.

Red Crown Gasoline Conformsto United States Government

StandardAll Red Crown gasoline now being supplied

in the Pacific Coast States is refined to con-form to the United States Government Stand-ard specifications. It is straight-distille- d,

gasoline having the full, uniform chainof boiling points necessary for d,

dependable gasoline: Low boiling points foreasy starting, medium boiling points for quick,smooth acceleration, and high boiling pointsfor power and mileage.

Items of Interest to OurHomesteaders

By Q. W. SAHR, County Agent

.Toe Agniar, who i hnrvcntitigeane for the member of the Ka-

paa Homesteader' Harvest ingAssociation, reports that it willhe two months more before har-vesting operations will he com-pleted in Kapahi district. Al-

though things are progressingfavorably in general, the work isbeing very much delayed due tolabor shortage, as a large percent-age of the cutters and loadershave left Hie gang to take up culti-vation contracts at Hanamaulnand elsewhere.

The plant crop of pineapples onS. K. Meheula's homestead in thefourth series at Kapaa lookssplendid now'. The recent rainshad a wonderful effect on the pine-apple plantings in that section.The presence of an unusual

of pineapple wilt has beenattributed by some to the unpre-cedented dry season just passed.

In addition to large planting ofcane M. (5. Mount of the fourthseries at Kapaa, has an excellentstand of Irish potatoes that prom-ise to be something unusual whenthe crop is harvested. The plantsare blossoming at the presenttime. Moura ought to be able toget an exhibit of Irish potatoesfrom this plot for the comingTerritorial Eair that will be ofconsiderable credit to KauaiWho's next?

Considering the acreage goinginto watermelons this spring, lining with what has already beenplanted, there ought to 'be anabundance of delicious fruit onthe market this season. So farthis year only a few watermelonsfrom Kekaba and Wailua havebeen marketed.

A number of homesteaders cul-tivating cane have made mentionof the fact that they would notuse fertilizer this year largely onaccount of the high price of thecommodity and the uncertainty oftheir contracts with the Makee

I

Sugar Company. It is a sad stateof affairs when men who are mak-ing a business of cultivating canecannot see the profit in fertilizingeven when fertilizer is at presentprices. A good many homestead-ers never did use fertilizer evenwhen it co'uld be had at a lowerfigure than what it sells for at thepresent time.

According to li. H. Uroadbent,manager of Grove Farm Planta-tion, little or no profit is derivedfrom fertilizing plant cane withnitrogenous fertilizers on newland or just previously fallowedlands. At least that has been hisexperience under conditions at(rove Farm. This, however, doesnot apply to ra toons or plant caneon land from which a crop of canehas just been harvested and thestools plowed under.

The value of second season fer-tilization by the application ofnitrate of soda or sulphate ofamonia either by hand or in the ir-

rigation water may be determinedby a simple problem in arithmetic.At Eleele it was found that anapplication of 200 lbs. nitrate ofsoda raised the yield of cane ap-proximately 8 tons to the acre.With homesteaders at Kapaa getting approximately !) dollars per(ton for cane, the application of200 lbs. nitrate at a cost of $18.50per acre would increase the acreyield of cane 8 tons, or a gain of$72 per acre as the result of an$18 investment. Approximately400 per cent profit in one year'stime is the value of second seasonfertilization. Is there any otherinvestment that would yield moreprofit? Nevertheless many smallplanters fail to see it.

The man who tries to makemoney out of cane cultivatingwithout fertilizer is like the busi-ness man who does not advertisehis business. They ought to be inthe same class anyway, fcr howcan we expect the small planter touse fertilizer when the fertilizermanufacturer neglects to adver-tise his product?

Amount of Phosphoric

Acid in Soils

Successful ExperienceEstablished 21 years ago, the

Hawaiian Trust Company, Ltd.,has handled a large number oftates, nnging from those of mode-

rate size to some of the very largestprobated in this territory.

This successful experience is atyour disposal and it will place youunder no obligation to consult us re-

garding the protection of your estate.

120 S. King St Honolulu T. H.

The phosphoric acid in soils is gen-

erally found in largest amounts inthe surface soil and is usually derivedfrom the disintegration of rocks. It isoften deficient and many soils showonly traces of phosphoric acid. Evenfertile soils only contain small

of this constituent. Soilsaverage from traces to 0.25 per centof phosphoric acid. An average soilcontains about 3,600 to 4,000 poundsof phosphoric acid per acre. Only asmall amount of this is available.Some soils may contain large quanti-ties of phosphoric acid but the poorcondition of the soil keeps this lockedup so that plants cannot utilize it.Organic matter, lime and good tillagehelp to increase the available supplyof phosphoric acid.

The young animal growing rapidlyin skeleton and tissues, needs a liberalsupply of mineral matter, especiallycalcium (lime) and phosphorus. Theamounts supplied in the feeds mustalways be larger than the quantityactually stored in the body, in orderto cover the continuous excretionsthereof from the body which occurseven in case of a deficient supply.

Pigs fed an Insufficient supply ofmineral matter are light in skeleton,with weak bones. Mineral matterbuilds up the skeleton and tends tomake stronger animals. Lack of itwill ultimately end in disaster to thestock raiser.

Since common feeding stuffs arerich in protein are likewise high inphosphorus, probably the phosphorussupply will be ample when rations arefed which are balanced according tothe usual feeding standards. Deflciencies in lime will only occur in districts where the roughages are unusu-ally low in lime., or when largeamounts of such roughages are fed.Where pigs are fed exclusively oncereal grains, especially corn, the limesupply will usually be deficient.Where lime alone is deficient it maybe supplied in legume hay, which isrich in lime, or in the form of chalkor ground limestone. If phosphorusalone or both lime and phosphorus arelacking, these may be supplied inground rock phosphate or else Inform of bone ash.

The Mokihana Meeting

Continued from page 1)4.. The 8chool a Community Center

Even more emphatically than In re-

gard to the grounds the school butidlngs and equipment should be available for community use. At presentthese valuable assets are used onlya fraction of the time; their usefulnessmight be largely increased. I wouldeven go the length of taking (hescrews out of the seats so that theycould be moved out when the occasiondemanded it. Just as in this Hall youhave movable chairs that can be dis-posed of when they are In the wayand your whole plant Is suited to thelargest and most varied use so too,a school equipment should minister toa much larger use In the community.To this end every school buildingshould be lighted, electrically, ofcourse, it possible.5... Primary and Kindergarten Work

Too much of our attention, too muchof our teaching ability, and too muchof our expenditure, comparatively,goes to the upper grades.

The first few years are importantyears. There are far more pupils inthese lower grades, and these are theimpressible years, the years of strat-egic importance. These are the yearsand theae are the grades that shouldreceive the most careful attention, andthe most personal and skilful handling.

Yet ve find in too many schoolsthat almost anyone will do for primarywork; two, three and perhaps fourtimes as many as there ought to be ina room.6... Hand Work

There are a few people who thinkwith their heads, most people thinkin terms of their hands. There is ajoy of creation that appeals to almostevery one. The boy who is making acart, or the girl who is making a cake,finds in the work a Joy of creation thatis out of all proportion to the value orquality of the thing made.

r

And this manual training, and ameasure of manual dexterity, Is a goodthing for anyone whether it be for alawyer, a bank cashier, or the mistressof a palatial home.

How sadly we have neglected thetraining of our girls for home-makin-

and hoine-makln- g is the finest andmost valuable of all arts. There aremany things that men can do, butthey can't make a home, it takeswomen to do that, and we ought togive far more attention In our schoolsto this profession that will be the lotof 90 per cent of the girls that passhrough our schools, that of home making.7. Music and Art in the Schools

The school should be a place thatfosters and stimulates a recognitionand a love of beauty. Not expensivelynor elaborately, but In the simplestforms and the most modest ways.

There should be harmonious linesand restful proportions, such as wefind in this hall, with nothing glaringand discordant to jar ones sensibili-- 1

ties. Yet how many schools there arewhere delicate sensibilities are fairlytortured by the lack of harmony andsimplicity.

Music Bhould be made more of inour schools. Singing of course, andI trust that the time is coming whenwe may go farther and accomplish,something In the line of simple orches-tral effort.8. School Health.

The first pre requisite of schoolefficiency is health. If the body isseriously defective the brain is oflittle use. Why, there are some child-ren in our schools that can hardly seethe blackboard across the room!What can you expect of Buch children?This sort of physical incapacity Is thecause of many of the "repeaters"who hang over from year to year Inthe same grade. Defective eyes, defective teeth, adenoids, enlarged tonsels, skin diseases, etc. these are fatalto the cause of education.

Now who is responsible for theseconditions? The parents? Yes, but

THE GARDEN ISLAND. TUESDAY. MAY, 6, 1919

not the parents alone, but the com-

munity also. At any rate the com-

munity must see to it that the evilsare corrected, at least where the par-

ents are unable to do so, or are in-

different. It is a community misfor-tune and the community must applythe remedy.9. The Comfort and Happiness of

the Teacher.The biggest thing in teaching is not

the teaching but the teacher. It isthe personality of the teacher thatcounts. So far as the actual deliveryof instruction goes we might employa talking machine, a Victrola, to dealit out. And in order to secure theright kind of high-clas- s personality,that will radiate grace, and charm,and inspiration, and character, wemust make our teachers comfortable,contented and happy. Of course thereare some chronic growlers that havea grouch on all the time, no matterwhat you do for them, the kind thatwon't be happy even in Heaven, if theyever get there. But the average teacher who is ready to see the sunshinewhere there is any, she ought to bemade reasonably comfortable and hap-

py. Aud it she isn't it is going to tellon the morale of the school.10. Americanism In the Schools.

And by this 1 mean a vital, aggressive, dynamic, Americanism that shallgo much deeper, and mean muchmore than the formal exercises ofsaluting the flag and singing the Nat-

ional Anthem; an Americanism thatshall run through the whole day andbe good for the whole year. One ofthe Legislators has advanced the verysensible argument for the school kit-

chens that they tend to developpatriotism, because they train thechildren "to eat American." Theschools ought to be so thoroughly im-

bued with American ideals that theywill make the children "eat American"in everything they do.

And the most significant quality ofthe new Americanism is communitycooperation. We have learned thelesson as never before in the various

9 - 14

drives that we have had during thiswar period. We have been drawn together as never before, all classes andall races in common interests andcommon efforts. Even Honolulu andHilo, that used to be always bickeringand scrapping and defaming eachother, now they have come to realizethat they have common interests anda common well-bein- g and that theywill gain far more by pulling togetherthan by pulling apart.

Is a new day yesterdayis gone, with Its mistakes and Its fail-

ures let us forget them and pulltogether for better things for thefuture.

Child Welfare

Mr. A. S. Wilcox has made a gener-

ous gift of land at Hanalol to thepublic school there for play ground,

garden and general use. This will beof great advantage to the school,

especially In an agricultural way, as it

is much better land than that here-- 1

tofore owned by the school. j

The Hanalei school rejoices in anexcellent partial play ground equipment in the way of a toboggan slide,two large see-saw- c and two sets ofathletic swings. These they have se-- ,

cured out of funds raised by the scr.ooiIn various ways. They have also a line

tennis court.The Anahola school, by means of

its own unaided enterprise, is prettywell up with the larger schools in theway of play ground equipment. Theyhave e outfits for base ball,basket ball and volley ball, and theyare right on hand to make good useof the same. Anahola Is a smallschool with only some 50 odd children,mostly In the lower grades, but underthe leadership of the principal, Mrs.

Carlotta Lai, they are making amighty good showing in school-work- ,

garden work and sports.

Schools. Play Ball

On Friday, May 2nd at 2 p. m. therewas somo excltomont at Makawellball grounds for tho Walmea team wasJust arriving. Tho game betweenthese two school teams was soon inprogress.

Makawell s youthful rooters worowere right on .tho job In encouragingtheir team, but 'Walmea had too stronga nlno to let a little youfliful enthus-iasm upset them.

Doth teams played an unusuallyclean gamo throughout without raisingtho hair-splittin- g demands on decisions that are usually characteristic ofyouthful contestants.

The remarkablo thing nbout thisgame is, that tho llglrt team fromMakawell played an increasinglystronger game as each inning passedthough thoy wero badly out classed bytheir friends from Walmea. InterestIncreased with tho progress of thegamo- - to the end, and splendid sports-manship was shown by both teams.

Although Walmea netted four runsto every one that Makawcli secured,tho gamo did not appear one sidedtdue to the splendid spirit of the play-

ers in making tho best of their mis-

takes and trying hard to overcomehandicap.

Mucli credit Is duo the instructorsfrom tho schools represented for theirefforts in teaching clean sportsman-ship to their respective teams, and itis hoped that more games of kindredmerit will follow during tho remainingmonth of the baseball season forKauai schools.

Since the influenza epidemic haspassed and all games can bo resumedIt is urged that all schools will re-

organize their teams and get Intoshape at once for tho remainder of theseason will bo a busy one duo to thogreat number of games to bo played.
