Yonkcrs Statesman.
Our conclusion is that the stat
ute exempts from taxation all per
sonal property and all real property
other than land, solely and actually
used in the cultivation and produc
tion of pineapples, and all lajid up
to forty acres so used by any one
person, linn or conxiration, but
does not exempt establishments for
the canning of pineapples, whether
owned by the planter or by an in
dependent corporation."
The syllabus reads:
"Taxation; exemption under stat
ute. S. L. 11)07, Act 77, exempting
all property, real and personal, used
in the cultivation and production of
pineapples does not exempt est id
lish'nients for canning pineapples.

Prosperous Farmer.
Letters have recently been re
eived by friends of .1. L. Dumas,
at one time assistant principal of
the Honolulu High School and ne
of the first teachers of the Normal
school, telling of his great pros
perity in a new field of labor.
Mr. Dumas is what would be
ailed in Hawaii a small farmer.
Soon after leaving here he took up
fifty acre-i of land In Columbia
County, Washington. He started
in apple orchard. He has been
at it for at least ten years and last
year his income amounted to forty
thousand dollars. For the next
crop he expects to get a return of
forty thousand boxes of apples,
from which a larger return than
forty thousand dollars may be an
ticipated In his letters he re
marks that he has done better than
he could have possibly done by
years of school teaching.
A measure of his success bus
been gained from ideas obtained in
Hawaii, as he is one of the pio
neers in producing fruit in irrigat
ed fields.
AN IDEALIST.
t
Oh, tell not of dreams of the roses
so swe '
When June scatters sunshine like
gold at your feet ; '
Don't whisper the stories of lasting
renown
To be won where the cannon all
merciless frown.
If life's but a dream, as philoso
phers say,
Let me dream of a field where the
home team at play
Awakens the skies to an echoing
shout,
With three men on bases and no
bod- out!
Here's bliss undefiled,
crowd, running wild.
Invites to rejoicing man,
and child;
Here s hope for the lutiin
blossoming fast
And founded on glorious deeds of
the past.
The thrill that goes surging through
out the great throng
Makes each pulse heat a measure
both rapid 4iud strong;
Ti a moment that's fraught with
magnificent doubt,
With three men on bases and no
body out!
Let the poet weave tales that arc
beauteous and strange;
Let the painter so skillful .through
wonderland range;
Let musicians create the soft mysti
cal spell
That calls us 'mid sweetest illusions
to dwell.
And yet, though the fancy of
genius be fair,
There's nothing that it can bring
forth to compare,
When you're looking for something
worth dreaming about,
With three men on bases and no
body out!
