Tho flmt speaker, Mr. Jncub Kotlu
sky gavo n khiI addi-cps mi Hulomo
IorIcuI lnxpection: "Object, Methods
nnd results." Ills first remarks told
of tho ravage of Insect lift- In tho
United Stntea and of the prolnhle loss
tu the iicoplc of llwali Thin hwa
wns crtlmnlod nt cine-h.itf million itul
lam. An for tho reason why Insect
Injury Is grenter now In anil aboil the
Islands, than lormorly. he mado very
plain by calling attention to the Intro
duction of pect by Imiiortcm of goods.
MoBt of tlio present day pent worn of
foreign orlRln and have been brought
In by people from the. conntiles ad

IlllgS.
It was Ktatcd that the work appears
somewhat -negative In Us character
but the object of Inspection in, us was
irlefly slated to prevent the Introduc
tion of harmful Insect life. No one
wants to spend time killing tuned
pcfts, henro the entomologists aph
orism "An hour of Inspection Is worth
n ton of Paris grc n."
When Roods are found to be Infect
ed, they nre Riven n trentment of
hydrocyanic arid mis In a room on
tho dock for about Ihreo (platters of
mi hour. This Rag Is the best agent
known to destroy all forms of nnlmnl
life.
To product' the gas patasHlum
cyanide Is dropped Into a vessel con
taining dilute sulphuric acid. 1 oz. of
IHitasslum cyanide Is used for one
hundred cubic feet of space.
Tho work of thu Inspector after four
1 cars' practice has without doubt kept
out many kinds of Insect pest, and Is
nlso educative to outsldo people who
may send goods here.
Duo to tho absence of Mr. U l.ow-ton-Drnln
Mr. P. O. Krnuss gave n
nty Interesting lecture on cotton.
Anyone Interested In tho growing of
cotton In these Islands should have

cil Iho characteristics of the best varl
Itles of cotton to be grown lu Hawaii,

ment station grounds showed their
comparative differences. Cultural
methods, strict attention lo seed se
lection, plant breeding and tho rota
tion of other crops will make cotton
u vnluablo and paying crop for Ha
waii. Attention to tho nbovo things
will ncreat.o tl probable area for
cotton production and glvo higher
yields and bettor quality to tho-flbcr.
Tlio market fur Hawaiian grown cot
ton Is good because of Iho superior
quality of the flock. Asldo from the
market for tho liber, a number of men
iro considering cotton growing for the
reason that tho by-produco, tho need.

quoted as high as 50 or fid cents per
IKiiind, while- Upland cotton will bring
23 rents.

The length of tho course has been
reduced two nnd one-half miles by
taking advantage of two short cuts.
This makes tho distance to bo run
