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. A proviso that such exemption J. L. Dumas is 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!
