with which to erect a suitable build
ing on a government lot near the
market set aside ior the purpose, Bny
A. T. Longley, superintendent of the
Territorial Marketing Division, in re
porting on the work of the division.

$1000 a month, for the two years be
ginning July 1, 1915, has been provid
ed for runnine expenses, and a revolv
ing fund of $7500 to be used as work
ing capital.
With all these Improvements in
working order there should be in
crease in the efficiency of the divi
sion and In the amount of produce
handled.
Eggs Advancing.
There has been practically no
change in the market dining the
week. Eggs have advanced, due to
scarcity and heavy doniand. 1'ork and
beef remain at the same price. Beef
is plentiful, and shipments of hogs
from the other islands are very ligiit,
due to an oversupply on Oahu.
Large quantities of good tomatoes
have been received. Many of these
were too ripe and could not be sold
in time to prevent much los3.
Sweet Potatoes and Peanuts.
Madelia sweet potatoes from Kaua'
are Increasing in popularity, and
planters are now getting cuttings of
this variety through the division.

Kukui oil Is worth about the same
price as linseed oil and there is said
to be a fair profit in its extraction.
Mr. Rice will pay the government one
dollar per ton for all nuts gathered on
public lands.

Much interest centers in the Junior
games at this part of the series, as it
is seen by the games of last Sunday
In a ten-inning game and a 2 to 1
score.
The ten-inning game was played in
the morning at 10:30 o'clock by the
Haikus and Cubs, and the former de
feated their opponents by the score
of 7 to 6. Excellent plays and much
excitement were features of this
game.
The Haikus used two pitchers while
the Cubs depended upon Keehu alone
to deliver the goods. In the ninth inn
ing the score was 6 to 6, and a home
run in the 10th by Paoa won the game
for the pine pickers.
The other game was played by the
Waikapus and Chinese. This was the
fastest game that was ever played by
the league. The Waikapus scored
their first run in the 7th, when Scholtz
pulled oft' a hit to right, sending Free
man in, and the second run came in
on the ninth by a hit again made by
Scholtz.
The Chinese failed to send a man
over the plate during the game but
they nearly succeeded when one man
was caught at the plate by a throw
from left field. The Chinese made
more hits than the Waikapus, and had
thefe hits been timely, the victory
would have been theirs. The game
ended 2 to 0 in favor of the Waikapus.
nuts, it Is difficult to place local pea
nuts at the present time. If there was
a regular Bupply of local product, prop
erly cleaned and graded, they could
easily be disposed of at good prices
Peanuts mane good crops In many sec
tions of the islands. Write to the Ha
waii experiment station for the Vulle
tin on peanuts and plant a small area.
Pines Scarce.
Pineapples, both ripe for local con
sumption and green for shipping, have
been scarce. The only green fruit
shipped by the division during the
past two weeks was grown and pack
ed by the Haiku Farmers' Association
Onions a Glut.
Island onions are plentiful and
cheap, with little prospect of the price
advancing. Due to lack of sufficient
rainfall, a great many of the onions
are undersized. During May the army
will use the local onions. This will
help local producers to disposei of
their crops.
To cut down the cost of keeping a
large number of petty accounts, ithas
been decided that all small orders of
seed and produce will be filled only
on a strictly cash basis from now on.
All mail orders should be accompan
ied by money order or stamps.
o
Grass Fertilizer For Pines.
The Hawaii Preserving Company
has been given a license to cut grass
in the Ewa forest reserve. The green
grass ' is to be used as fertilizer on
the company's pineapple fields at Wa
ll la wa.
o
Pigeon Peas As Food.
The pigeon pea which Is grown to
some extent in Hawaii as a wind
break around cotton and pineapple
fields is one of the chief food crops
of India. The peas are eaten in all
stages of growth, green and ripe. The
leaves and young growth makes good
cattle feed. The twigs are used for
thatch and the stalks as fuel. Advertiser.

Bazaar and Luau Great Success.
In spite of the bad weather that pre
vailed, the Feast of St. Joseph, at the
Makawao Catholic Church, a week ago
Sunday, was well attended, a good
number of people coming from out
side districts. In the services Father
Anthanasiu was assisted by Father
Justin, Father Charles and Father
Ambrose. The free luau was appre
ciated by all, and great credit is due
Mr. Joseph Freitas for making it the
most successful luau ever held In Ma

excellent music.

Last Sunday, April 25, Mr. Louis
Freitas of Makawao, and Miss Jernie
Ventura of Kokomo, were married at
the St. Joseph's Church, Rev. Father
Anthanasius tying the nuptial Knot.
A Needed Improvement.
The county .is building a foot brid?e
sinular to those in the Hana district,
across the gulch near Xokomo. Thia
is a greatly needed improvement, for
in rainy weather the children going t.
fichool, and the people going to church
on Sundays, had to wade a stream of
water, knee to watst deep.
