HOW COOPERATION MAY
SOLVE PROBLEMS FOR KULA
What the Farmers Are Doing to Help Themselves
A Lesson in Marketing Eggs and Buying
Kerosene Kula Notes.
(Special Correspondence.)
VVAIAKOA, Nov. 5. The main pur
pose of the Kula Farmers Cooperative
Association is to get back to the ac
tual farmer the whole price paid by
the consumer with only the least pos
sible marketing expense taken out of
It It also aims to enable the farmer
to buy what he needs in such quan
tity and In such a way that there Is
the least possible marketing expense
between the producer of what the
farmer needs, and the farmer himself.
Two transactions of the past week
splendidly illustrate how this Is be
ing worked out.
How Plan Worked Out.
The small farmer who produces but
a few dozen eggs a week is at a dis
advantage as to marketing them. He
has too few to ship to where the best
market is, and so he sells to the local
buyer receiving about half of what the
man pays who finally eats the egg.
To correct this the associat'on has
arranged to gather the eggs at the
schools one day each week. Last
week was the urst. this plan was In
operation, and but one dozen eggs
was brought in. This was too few to
ship, as the shipping expense cn a
crate of eggs, inelud'ns the return of
the empty crate, Is about flfly cents.
So the association s agent bought at
th store four dozpn og;a at forty
cents a dozen, and thin shipped the
whole fie dcieti, afte.- clo.miii a,'d
cadling the eggs.
These five dozen eggs sold in Ho
nolulu for sixty cents a dorc-n, net
ting in Kula fifty cents a dozen.
Elaine Anuhu, of Keokea school, the
only pupil brave enough to try the
new plan at the start, received fifty
cents last Monday for her eggs. As
twelve dozen can be shipped as cheap
ly as five dozen the returns would
have been fifty-five cents had there
been twelve dozen to send.
And what of the four dozen eggs
bought at the store? That very same
week when the farmer might have
sent his eggs to the school and re
ceived fifty cents a dozen, he took
the mto the store and received thirty
five cents a dozen for them. The
Association bought them at forty
cents, so the store made a profit of
five cents; Ihn association netted fifty
cents, so it made a profit of ten
cents; fifteen cents lost to the farmer
on every dozen because of the old
costly way of doing things.
Saving in Buying Also.
Now for an Illustration on the buy
ing side. Kerosene comes to Kula in
cases, two cans of five gallons each.
The farmer pays $2.40 a case, J2.40
for ten gallons of kerosene, two tin
cans and a wooden box. That is
twenty, four cknts a gallon. Kero
sene is quoted at Honolulu wholesale,
that is, in 54 gallon iron barrels,
at 11 V6 cents a gallon. To bring
barrel to Kahului and return the
empty barrel costs two cents a gal
Ion; to haul it to Kula and return the
empty barrel costs two cents a gal
lon; total cost in Kula 15 cents a
gallon. The association is selling
produce for farmers without charge,
but it will charge a profit cf ten pt
cent on all It buys for them in order
to meet its expenses. Add the ten
per cent to the 15 u-nts H'ld v have
seventeen cents a gallon as '.he cos
of keiosene to the fanner in plae
of twenty-four cents. He has !.cen
saved the cost of tin can and
wooden box, the old costly way ot
doing things.
We have only begun. The light
is just dawning for the Bmall farmer
of Kula and all Hawaii. Cooperation
is the sun that will bring the full
light of day to him, and warm and
r brighten his life. And this not only
in material things, for may we not
hope that betterment along these line
will but be the foundation for better
moral, civil and spiritual conditions
throughout every rural communicy?
"Look up and not down, look out
and not in; look forward and not
back, and lend a hand."
KULA NOTES.
A Haloween Party.
The patients ot the Kula Sanitarium
enjoyed a genuine old fashioned Hal
lowe'en party. All but four were able
to- take part and even these enjoyed
it from a distance. There was jump
ing with one's bands behinds one's
back for candy hung on strings, bob
bing for apples floating in water,
spooky pumpkin faces and all that
goes to make such an occasion com
plete. "?hat the patients enjoyed it
those who heard their hearty laughter
can attest.
Dr. Raymond's family have return-
od from Honolulu bringing with them
Mrs. Herbert, Mrs. Noonan, and Mrs.
Armstrong.
Farmers' Association Activities.
The Kula Farmers Cooperative As
sociation shipped a small crate of
eggs and several tons of corn last
week. These were the first ship
ments in the association's name. The
full returns from sales go back to
the farmer without any deduction or
harge for the services of the asso-
lation.
A meeting of the board of directors
was held November 1 at which ac
tion was taken in the following mat
ters. To meet the expenses of the
association such as postage, wireless
messages, books, printing, etc., it was
decided a charge of ten per cent
would be made on all supplies pur
chased for the members,
It was arranged to arrange, If pos-1 W. A. McKay 3,000.00

March, 1910; executed, acknowledged
and delivered by the Koolau Rubber
Company, Limited, a domestic corpor
ation, Mortgagor, to the First Na
tional Dank of Wailuku, a corporation,
as Trustee; said mortgage being of
record in the office of the Registrar
of Conveyances in Honolulu in Liber
333, pages 123-129; said First Na
tional Rank ot Wallulsu, as Trustee
aforesaid, (having been requested in
writing bo to do by the owners and
holders of the several promissory
notes secured by Bald mortgage,)
hereby gives notice of its intention to
foreclose said mortgage, and sell the
properties in said mortgage described,
because of the non-payment of the
interest now due, owing, and unpaid
on the several promisaoiy notes secur
ed thereby.
Said mortgage secures the payment
of Thirty Thousand ($30,000.00) Dol

ment of the Kahului Railroad for the
establishment of a branch lumber
yard at Waiakoa so that Kula farmers
ould get lumber easily, quickly and
more cheaply, the last point being
ifeclcd by having for every load of
produce down a back load of lumber
up.
The agent was authorized to pur
chase produce In cases where farmers
are unwilling to ship on consignment,
lie profits from such transactions to
SO Into the association's treasury, but
his is to bo done only in cases where
farmer positively refuses to ship
on consignment. It is hoped that this
method need only be employed in oc
casional cases for a short time until
confidence in the association is estab
lished.
rrices were submitted to show that
the association could furnish kero
sene to its members at seventeen
cents a gallon in Kula or 15 Mi cents
in Kahului, if it made ten per cent
profit. It was decided to get up an
order for kerosene at once, and to
secure prices on rice, sugar and flour.
A portion of a letter from Mr. Long-
ley, Marketing Superintendent, was
read in which he said that efforts
would be made to have beanB fuml-
