They are three feet high and very thick. Your plow turns them completely under, at . the same time plowing the land fourteen inches deep. I feel satisfied that with this plow the draft for the same quantitv and depth of work is as 6 to 8. That is, with the old plow, to do the same work, it takes 8 good mules; with your plow it takes only 6, and they are less tired at night. Please send me another plow by first schooner leaving for this. You are at liberty to use this in any way you may see fit. Yours truly, A. LIDGATE. V. V (VPonTinouTK & Jifi-M niii .

To Produce and Sell Fruits and Vegetables Start Made Experi enced Men From California. In a very few days now there will be incorporated a company to be known as the Hawaiian Fruit and Plant Com pany, Limited, with principal head quarters in Honolulu. The capital stock hs been fixed at $25,000 with the privilege of raising this to $50,000. Half of the stock has already been taken. Byron O. Clark, who has just been appointed Commissioner of Agri culture, is at the head of the enter prise and his plans are alrady definite ly settled. To the 25 acres he has al ready obtained, Mr. Clark intends to add other land, some of which will be in the mountains. Business will be transacted on a large scale and the products from the various places of the company will be sent to a whole sale and retail store in town, which it is proposed to erect as soon as matters are in working order. Foreign and native fruits and vegetables will be raised both for the home market and for San Francisco. Already, experienced men have be gun to arrive. Not long ago S. J. Mur dock of Westminster, Orange Co., Cal., a pioneer in the celery growing busi ness, and an eminently practical man, arrived in Honolulu, brought here by the representations of Mr. Clark who thinks that the future of the Islands from the standpoint of fruit, plant, and vegetable growing, is very bright. Mr. Murdock is now in charge at the Pearl City place, where splendid results are being obtained. On the Irmgard will come G. A. Mur dock, a son of S. J. Murdock, who will have charge of the sales department. The latter is likewise a practical man who has followed in the foot steps of his father, and made a success of horti culture. It will not be long before other ex perienced men will arrive from the States to take charge of the various departments of the company which is so soon to be incorporated. Mr. Clark has gone about the mat ter in a most systematic manner. He sees the advantage of having men tried in the work and has gone in for that. When everything is in working order there will be a specially adapted man at the head of each department. Said Mr. Clark: "I came here to locate and I mean to make this my home. There is money in the business and in a few years you will see a business of gigan tic proportions." FREE! FREE! TO KIDNEY " SUFFERERS. An Opportunity Worthy of Your Notice. 3Iiss 0'3Ioore.
