MOTOR CARS
THE Chalmers "30" is the only
medium priced car that was
ever awarded the Glidden Trophy
Of 11 the Glidden Toun, that of 1910 ws lti
longest, and bjr far the harden, .'l lasted for lixtetn
running dajri and cohered 2,831 miles. It sured at
Cincinnati and went " by way of Dallas, Texai,"
through thlttcen Statci to Chicago.
Wordt and pictures cannot matce plain the racking
cobblestone loads of Kentucky the stump-studded
forest trails of the Tennessee mountains the swamps
of Arkansas the deep, treacherous sands of Texas
the mud of Kansas the brldgtleis southern streams or
the sheltering heat that punished cars and men alike.
It Is the opinion of experts nho made thli tour
that no car in the norld could have completed It with a
perfect score. Yet, from Cincinnati to Louisville to
Nathvllle-to Sheffield, Ala. to Memphis to Little
Kock to Hot Springs to Texatkana to Dallas to
Lawton, Oklahoma to Oklahoma City to Wichita,
Kansas eleven consecutive days out of the sixteen,
through the hardest part of the trip and for five
days after every other car on the tour had been
penalized, not a single point could be assessed against
the Chalmers "30" the $1500 car $1600 with mag.
neto, I'rest-O.LIte tank and gas lamps. ,
In all the history of motoring, there Is no per
formance like this. The Glidden Trophy has never
been won before by a car costing less than $1000.
If you are thinking of buying a car, what better
proof could you alk of reliable performance under all
n yo
of the winning Chalmers "30" r
The Chalmers "30" has never been defeated
In any Important motoring event by any car of
tu price and power class. The Chalmers "Forty"
won the Detroit Trophy In the 1909 Glidden Tour.
Chalmera cars have won more events of all kinds in
proportion to the number entered than other cars.
In addition to perfect mechanical performance,
you get In the Chafmtri all the beauty of Ho lai
finish that you can find in any car.
What more could you ask In any car at any price
than you get in the medium-priced Chalmers
We have never had so large a volume of business
as we have now. There has never been so satisfying a
demand for Chalmers cars' as there has been since we
announced out 1911 models, yet this demand will
not affect the Chalmera policy of building cars for
quality, not quantity.
We suggest, therefore, that you place your otdr
now, so as to be sure of getting the car that Is' your
first choice, Chalmers cars are the first choice
of those who look most carefully Into the automo
bile question and know the most about automobile
valuea.
1911 cars are nnw on exhibition. Deliveries an
being made accotding to schedule.

It has been found that the Mediter
ranean fruit tly Is present on Oiiliu,
ami Is destructive to fruits which
hnvo n sort texture. This la n pest
found In many parts of tho world,
and experiments have been carried on
for porno time hero to decldo If It
wns really tho pest which was at
tacking oranges and limes In nnd
around Honolulu.
'Ihefo 'experiments hnvo demon
strated that tfio jiesl la Indeed hero,
and all precautions will hn taken to
keep It from spreading tn other Is
lands and to tho Coast, should tho
hoaid hac power to prohibit such
shipments .
Tlio tegulntlon formed for the np
pronl of the Attorney-CIenornl and
Rnvernor provides n stiff penalty for
any shipping concern Inking any of
the fruits, nnd will stop all such ship
ments If It Is promulgated
Superintendent Klirlioru of the en
tomological staff of tho department
sill. milled the following report on this
pest, which will bo of Interest to nil
fruit growers and others nt all con
cerned In tho fruit business;
"llonornblo Hoard of Commissioners
of Agriculture nnd Forestry, Ho
nolulu, 'T. II.
"Gentlemen: Since my report to
you on the findings of tho Mediter
ranean fruit II y In Honolulu nnd vi
cinity, and receiving )otir Instruc
tions regarding tho sending of an of
ficial notice of the nppcarnnco of this
pent to the State Commission of. Hor
ticulture of California, I beg to say
that due notice has been sent to that
commission, nnd n copy of my letter
Is submitted hero with. 1 have en
deavored to truce tho sprend of tho
ft nil fly us fur ns possible and to
learn something from thoso who
claim to hae known of Its oxlstenco
hero Inst season.
"The Mediterranean fruit fly Is re
ported f loin the countries bordering
tlio Mediterranean Sea, Capo Colony,
Natal, Azores, Australia, Now Zea
land, Ilrazll and Ilermudn. It Is re
ported ns attacking oranges, lemons,
limes, gunvas, mangoes, peaches, sa
potn, loatiat, eugenlns nnd other soft
mentcd fruits. As far ns I havo been
able to study this pest here, I have
only 'been nble to rear tho fly from
ornnces and limes.

ers and from the present distribution
of the pest wo have enmn to tho
conclusion f nt! the pest wns Intro

ing eMorday afternoon, Is approved ,,,,., A ,mrtJ. from Kiillhl reports
finding oranges with bruises (mag
gots) In August of In3t )car nnd
brought me specimens from the lo
cality In the beginning of September
of this year, from which I reared the
fruit fly
"April 2 of this year Mr. Illack
man of Kalinukl brought in n few
oranges which contnined mnggnts of
different sl7c These I placed In &
breeding Jnr, nnd on April 7 I lslted
Mr. Illackuian's place to further study
tho trouble. I procured more speci
mens and observed the melon fly rent
ing In tho trees. 1'rom the material
collected wo reared mostly Drosophll
llds, which feed on fermenting Juicer,
but we also rented one ndult melon
fly. Nothing further was thought of
this mutter, becnuso wo found that
many of tho oranges on the trees
showed thorn injury, and wo camo to
the conclusion that this had attract
ed the Drosophllllds nnd tho melon
fly.
"On Juno 21 I). T. Fullawny of the
IT. S. Experiment Station brought an
ndult of the Medlterrnnenn fruit fly
Into my nlHce nnd reported finding It
In his Insectnry, which Is nil screen
ed with tine-mesh wire Ho could not
nccouut for tho appearance of tho fly.
nnd to his knowledge no materials
of any kind had been brought In from
outside countries. On account of this
I again visited Mr. lllaekmnn's place,
the only place where, oranges had
been found Infested with maggots, but
failed to find any trace of further
damago to Ills fruit. It was not until
Septembor of this year that It was
definitely determined that the fruit
fly was hero, when Mr. Terry and Dr.
Perkins of tho Hawaiian Sugar Plant
ers' Association Experiment Station
found some ndult Hies on the window
of tho laboratory. Mr. Terry nnido n
diligent search In several localities
and found snmn nrnnpot und limes on
tho Biopo of Punchbowl which were
punctured and contained maggots. I
ulso continued my Investigations nnd
found Infested nrnng03 In the vicinity
of Mnklkl Urn home, Kewuln, Klnatt
nnd Keeaumnku streets. From all tills
material wo succeeded In raising the
adult Mediterranean fruit fly with
ninny Drosophllllds and u few Noto-
grnmnins, these hitler only drawn tn
the fruit on account of fermentation
nnd decay.

tlie tommoii seedling ornnge appear
