Experiment Station Plans To Estab
lish Demonstration Farm With
Expert in Charge
If the plans of Dr. Wilcox, of the
Hawaii l'xperiment station ami tin'
TiTritorial Marketing Division work
out, Maui is soon to have one of
1 1 ir most important demonstration
farms yet. to lie eslalilislied in this
Territory. The new branch will he
estahlished in the Kuiaha home
stead section, which up to the pre
sent time has no assistance of this
nature ".hatevcr.
It is understood that all that is
lolding the matter hack is the
pproval of Washington to the use of
portion of the Federal funds, now
Available, for this specific purpose.
When this approval is secured it is
the intention to select one of the
homestead lots, and to have it farm-
l in diversified crops under close
lireetion of the experiment sU'tion.
Hie idea will' he to ascertain hy
ictual field trials, the best methods
for growing different products, the
varieties best suited to local condi
tions, and the seasons to plant. A
start in this work has been made by
the farmers themselves, but it is too
bi a job for individuals.
The low prices of pineapples, and
the uncertainty of this crop for the
future, has made the Haiku settlers
particularly anxious to find other
means of making s living from their
lands, so that the new demonstra
tion farm will be most thankfully
welcomed by them.
It is reported that the plans of the
station call for the employment of
in expert scientific farmer to have
lircet charge of the farm, who will
command a salary oi sjimju per
year. The manager will work in
connection with the Experiment
station, and also with the Territori-
i Marketing division, and will be
i .i on.
expected to he the eiuei iaetor in
holding the farmers of the district
together.

GENERAL MERCHANDISE
Will Decorate For
Civic Convention
If the plans of the Hoard of Su
pervisors carry, and as there is no
opposition they probably will,
Wailuku will probably be more
elaborately decorated for the big
Civic Convention, to be held here
early in October, than ever before.
The Civic Convention Committee,
in a communication to the super
visors, this week suggested the
desirability of some action being
taken to put the town in fitting
trim to receive the big delegations
from the other Islands. Just what
will be done in the decorating line
is not yet decided upon, but it is
assured that it will be worth while

Old Time Doctors' Fees.
Army doctors" fees In tlie spventnpntli
century in Knropu were rather modest,
rmrim; t!n civil war. for Instance, the
physician ironcrnl of Cromwell's nrmy
received 10 sliillinjrs n day. tho npothc
cary Ki'iiernl Us. !)!., the ehirurpeon
peneral 4 shilling and his two iisslst
nnts half n crown on eh day. Then
enmp tho inevitable economist, whoso
deeds C. II. Firth summarized thus In
n Conililll article of March, 1001: "In
lfi.'l the surgeon's pay rose to 0 Bhll
linu's n day; in 1055 it was fixed nt 5
shillings, mid the economists cut off
one of his mates. In 1057 his pay yns
again reduced to 4 shillings n day.
Monclc considered the sum bo lnsnlll
ciont that (in 105S) he ordered the sur
geons to he entered us privntes on tho
master roll of their regiments in order
to give them an additional uinepence

Bombay's Bird Market.
It is n common practice in India to
keep birds as pets In captivity, parrots
being most popular for this purpose,
but cockatoos, mainas (a smaller kind
of talking bird), canary birds, doves
and gray headed love birds are nlso
frequently boon in cages. Tho bird
market nt Bombay Is one of tho
unique sights of that city, there be
ing offered for sale there thousnuds of
birds, ehielly from India and tho east
coast of Africa, especially Zanzibar.
Globular Lightning
According to Professor V. M., 'Thorn
ton of Armstrong college, globular
lightning descends slowly from a
clo-.iJ, generally after a violent clap of
thunder, in the form of n brilliant
bluish ball. It bounds from the earth
when it touches and then moves off a
few yards horizontally. These bnlls
readily follow nn electric conductor
n gas pipe, for instance and burst
when they touch water or sometimes
In the open air. The ball then disap
pears Instantaneously with n violent
explosion, which may do damage and
which produces a strong smell of
ozone.
Thornton believes with reason that
globular Iightiiln.fi Is made up princl
pally of a mass of ozone. This hy
pothesis explains why the color of the
ball is usually bluish, why the lumi
nous mass descends slowly through the
air, ozone being of a density about 1.7
times that or air. and finally why the
instantaneous disappearance of the
ball Is accompanied by an explosion,
for the transformation of ozone Into
oxygen liberates a great quantity of
cnortrv.

"In some parts of Iirazil there nre

criminal action against
man alleged to have been guilt
of hog-stealing, County Attorney
Case discovered upon arrival that
the whole matter amounted to
nothing more than a family dispute
ibout the division of progeny of a
certain rangy porker, and that the
ironertv in ciuestion was only
alued at ?12. The matter was
settled amicably by Justice Con-
radt, after a conference with the
parties, and Attorney Case returned
home. The cost to the county of
the nroceedings was about $15, or
considerably more than the total
value of the property.
