THE MAUI NEWS, SATURDAY, APRIL 19, 1913. Wailuku Public School Show On May 9, in the Wailuku Town Hall, the Wailuku Public School will give nn entertainment which promises, to be one of the best ever eeeh on Maui. The program will consist of drills, recitations, crown ing the Queen of May, May-Pole ft dance, choruses, a farce by the teachers and older pupils, and many other interesting features. Children are being rehearsed for their parts in the entertainment, and they are already showing evidence of the corcful tuition Mint is being given them. The May Pole will be a most in teresting feature, nnd the tiny tots who nro to tako part in it are work ing hard to get the difficult dance around tho pole "and through the colored ribbons, down to a state of perfection. Tho farco is said to be a very funny one, as there are quite a number of good amateur actors nt the Wailuku School, tho affair should be most successful . The full program will be published later. Don't forget the date May 9. Forest Timber The Forest Service has just begun to advertise tho twelfth large lot of National Forest timber offered for sale within tho past nine months. Altogether it has advertised since July 1, 1911, the beginning of the present fiscal year, about 2,500, 000,000 feet, and has ctoscd con tracts for tho sale of 1,700,000,000 feet. The latest advertised sale is of approximately 52,000,000 feet of saw timber in tho Rainier National Forest, about 35 miles from Tacoma. In offering National Forest timber for sale the Government first makes an estimate of the quantity of tim ber on an area which would natur ally form a single logging unit, and which offers attractive opportunities for the lumberman. The probable cost of logging and manufacturing by a cnpable lumberman is then estimated. On the basis of these estimates combined with tho figures for market values and freight Honolulu Music Co.

MILL STREET I 1 charges the timber is appraised nnd then advertised fur sale, with the appraised value as a minimum price. The minimum prices set for the Iluinier timber vary from 50 cents to 1.50 per thousand feet, accord ing to the kind of timber. These are stumpage prices that is, the purchaser buys the trees on the stump and does all the logging, but pays according to the board foot measure of the logs. The Govern ment aims to allow the manufac turer a liberal profit on the basis that lumbering involves a good deal of businessjisk, and the minimum stumpage prices are fixed accord ingly. Often, however, competi tive bids raise the price above the advertised minimum. One of tho provisions of the con tract which the successful bidder fi? tho Rainier timber will enter into will bo that if market prices advauce materially theGovernmcnt's Chief Forester may, after the sale lias run three years,' require a reason able readjustment of the stumpage prices up to an added 50 cents per thousand. Tho object of this sti pulation is to prevent loss to the Government that is, to the public and an undue profit to the pur chaser thiough long-term contracts entered into on a rising market. Provision against such speculative profits is regarded a especially necessary in view of tho long-term sales now sometimes made to get purchases for large bodies of in accessible timber. For the Rainier sale the cutting period allowed is only five years, since tho quantity of timber invol ved approximately 52,000,000 board feet docs not call for an ex tended operation. One National Forest sale made this year was for 800,000,000 board feet and the purchasers were allowed a- cutting period of twenty-two years besides a preliminary two years in which to build a railroad. Usually purchasers must begin ..operating the year of purchase and cut a stipulated amount each year. Tho latter provision is simply an example of a fundamental principle that is applied in all National For est timber sales. The primary object is described as being not pro fit for the Government but benefit to the public. Nowhere is the policy a strictly commercial one. The conditions of cutting are care fully prescribed from the standpoint of present as well as future needs The highest bid for the contract may be rejected, and is rejected if it appears that to give the bidder the contract would tend to facilitate timber monopoly and so subject the consumer to a hardship. In other words, the Government foresters consider that they should not only make the forests grow as fast as possible but also make them as use ful as possible to the public. fa is BOTTLED BEERS iA WAILUKU Opening of Public Lands in the Territory of Hawaii.
