News has been received recently of
the tragic death of Mr. Geo. Goodacre,
of San Jose, California, formerly for
many years resident of Koloa.
Ho was on his way from San Jose
to Riverside, where he had orange
grove interests, and was being driven
by a friend, but in his own car, when,
in attempting to pass another car on
a narrow road, the car turned turtle,
and both were badly Injured, Mr. Good-acrso seriously that he died within
a few hours. His daughter, Miss
Genevieve, through some delay of the
telegram, did not get the sad news
until late the next day, too late to see
her father alive.
Mr. Goodacre came to the Islands
away back in the 70's In company with
Mr. Hundley of Kealia, and they were
both engaged by the Makee Sugar Co.
Later Mr. Goodacro took up the sugar
business and was for many years
manufacturing mill manager for the
Koloa plantation. Later he was plantation manager for the Smith interests
in Koloa, and then Koloa assistant
manager for McBryde, when that corporation took over those interests.
He was an uncommonly genial, kindly and generous man, with a good
word for everyone, and well liked by

The people of McBryde Plantation,
Eleele and Hanapepe enjoyed a most
successful beach party at the plantation beach at Wahlawa, last Sunday.
After a dandy swim and water athletics, a picnic supper on the lanal of
the beach house was enjoyed by all
members of the party, numbering
nearly fifty.
After supper the race for the coffee
kettle that Btarted out to sea was
rather exciting. The Captain was too
strong a swimmer for the boat crow
and carried off the honors. All joined
in having a "good old sing'.' until they
ran out of songs, ending up with the
National Anthem at 8:30. It'has been
decided to have another beach party
next full moon.
::
Last Wednesday afternoon a party
of Lihue folk, with a few good fellows
from Kapaa, foregathered at Nlumalu
for tho avowed purpose of eating
steaks broiled over tho coals.
Needless to say tho purpose was accomplished in a highly satisfactory
manner. Besides the
and
coffee, which tho gentlemen
of tho
party prepared, tho ladles had provided many things that go far to making
life worth while. After tho repast, singing around the camp fire was the order

Tho Hanalei rlco planters are
staunch believers in fertilizer. Years
ago they had no use for it. Cost too
much money. Chinese are tho most
conservative people on earth, and the
Hanalei Chinese wore the kind that
came out of tho ark. One of the plantations there, somo years ago met with
disaster in the shape of a big washout that left them stranded, and delayed their work so that they were reduced to one crop In tho year instead
two. Mr. Sanborn assured
of tho
them that this need make no difference
in their recipts if thoy would only
use fertilizer, that they would get as
much out of one crop as thoy had before out of two. They were utterly
skeptical In regard to any such outcome, and only when ho absolutely
guaranteed them against loss would
they try It. Tho result Justified his
prediction, thoy got the two crops In
one, and wero so far ahead that they
no longer gainsay the value of fertilizer. Ever since that they havo bunked on it and bought it freely.

Child Welfare Notes
Mrs. Lydgate was over on the
Hana-e- i
side thla last week in the interest
welfare, and visited several
child
if
of the schools and found much to Interest and encourage her.
The Hanalei School
Here she found the children more
than usually bright, intelligent and responsive, and more than usually neat
and clean.
A very large propotion
of the children are Chinese . They
have a very excellent simple equipment of playground apparatus includslide, and tennis
ing bwings,
court.
They have done some very beautiful and excellent needle work, underwear, towels, aprons, tea cloths, etc.
as well as childrens dresses, with
much fine lace and embroidery. This
is mostly on order, and will be on exhibition at the fair in Honolulu.
The children here are "crazy for"
magazines and will be very grateful
for anything in this line.
sew-saw-
The Kilauea School
Shows a very high grade of intelligent and responsive children that It
is a pleasure to meet and talk to.
There is a good sized and very promising eighth grade many of whom are
ambitious to go on to the high school.
Here Mrs. Lydgate alked to them at
some length of the need for cleanliness, the care of the teeth , proper
food, etc., and distributed among the
larger children little booklets on "The
Care of Children" wih some practical
comments on the same.
The Anahola School
Was reached after school hours,
but Mrs. Lai, the principal was seen
and she told of the difficulty she found
in getting material to work with in the
way of sewing and domestic arts. The
Department no longer furnished such
material and it was very hard to convince the parents of the importance
and value of these things. The only
way seemed to be to furnish these
things ones-self- .
She found that the
girls had l.o idea of mending and darning.
"What do you do with your
stockings and clothes when they get
holes in?" she asked, "Throw 'em
away!" they promptly responded.
"Oh. but you must'nt do that!" she
said "bring them to school and I will
show you how to mend them," which
they are now doing.
Miss Pepper the Kealla community
nurse visits the school once a week,
and looks the children over, and gives
them such minor treatment as they
may need and where necessary prescribes a special diet, or additional
nutrition which the teachers try and
make provision or.
Welfare Work for Kilauea Plantation
A very interesting and valuable
work is being done by Miss Langwith
for the children of the Kilauea plantation. There are some 5')0 children
all fold in and about the central camp
partly Filipino, partly Japanese and
partly Portuguese.
About half of
them are of school age the others
younger.
Each racial camp has a children's
outfitted with sand boxes,
swings, slide, and sew saw, which are
constantly in use, and vastly appreciated.
The laborers are encouraged to have
little gardens about their houses, and
neat and well kept' plots bright with
flowers and greenery are the rule
everywhere. Prizes are given for the
best showing in this respect and that
stimulates them.
The houses and camp equipment are
somewhat after the manner of those
at the Grove Farm Puhi camp model
in their way, having detached kitch-ens, with cement floors, cooking rang
es, etc. And with all there is the rare
distinction that everything is scrupulously clean and sweet.
At a central point in the Filipino
camp there is a club house with an
athletic section fitted out with the
necessary apparatus, where the men
can do athletic stunts in the evening,
and another section fitted out with
MAY 20, 1910
simple reading matter, magazines,
phonograph, billiard tables and other
games, open in the evening to all who
will make proper use of the same.
That order and proper conduct may
prevail there is a dean in charge,
Father Hubert alternating with the
Filipino minister in that capacity.
Miss Langwith is regarded in the
camps as an angel of mercy; everyone hails her with a smile
greeting
and the little children 'especially run
to meet her and follow her about as
little chickens do the mother hen and
evidently regard her as their very
own.
She has a night school already in
operation for adults, and plans are in
hand for a domestic science class for
the older girls, to teach them cooking
and housekeeping. The plantation
will furnish the meat and sugar required for this purpose, and the girls
will be expected to provide the flour
and other simple needs.
It certainly looks as though Kilauea
had stolen a morch on the rest of the
plantations in the matter of child and
labor welfare, and was setting them
an example that they all ought to
follow.

The Browns Heard From
The following private letter from
Mrs. H. C. Brown tells of the whereabouts and doings of the Browns in a
way that will be of Interest to their
friends and to all who knew them.:
"We are enjoying wonderfully interesting times in Washington. Mr.
Brown heard Admiral Sims today at
the opening of the Victory Loan campaign, and he also heard President
Wilson's cabled message read by an
aviator over 2000 feet above the State
War and Navy Building, his voice being caught by wireless telephone and
reproduced by an amplifier.
Anita and I participated in the

Easter Monday
Washington Monument. Thousands
children with gorgeously decorated
baskets with parents and friends in
attendance, enjoyed the games, the
picnic lunches, the music of five fine
bands, the rythmic dancing, the airplanes circling overhead and the glorious air and brilliant sunshine.
We meet delightful people. Mr.
Brown enjoys his work as one of the
desk secretaries in the Central Y. M.
C. A. and we live and I teach in a
charming private school which Anita
attends. My hours are shorter, my 14
pupils are very lovable and the salary
almost double the highest I ever received in Hawaii.
Washington throbs with life and
color, and the thousands who have
been drawn here by the war comprise
many of the finest people in the country. The streets are gay and colorful
with our own and foreign uniforms,
chastened by the wounded soldiers one
sees everywhere, many of whom are
at the great Walter Reed Hospital
here.

to disappear entirely noon.
Her home was burned over her head,
her husband was killed in the, army.
She has been beaten with huge lints,
prodded with bayonets and outraged.
With forty men, women mid children
she was herded each night into n
cave for five hours sleep, and the remaining nineteen hours being spent
working for her Hun masters. They
lived on the flesh of the horses that
had been killed in battle nnd black
bread. When she was about to become a mother she was beaten and
starved because she could not work.
In this cavo with forty men. women
and children, no fire and seirtely n
blanket her child was born with only
the crude assistance of her sinned
friends. It (lied in her arms which
was a blessing. She has told me all
this with much thumbing of a dictionary and I know it is all true. I am
only one of millions of soldiers but
the little Interest I took in her son
won her confidence and the whole
pitiful story is in my heart to stay.
The French are a queer people nnd
I try very hard to understand them.
They seem frivolous but at heart
think they are a serious race. Courtesy Is natural to them and it is hard
for them to be rude. The humblest
peasant could give many of the people
in our country cards and spades in
courtesy yet their table manners are
a bit shocking. I like to eat in restaurants where the patronage is mostly
French and watch them eat. To besin
with they go in strong for community
stuff and half the people in the cite
may be seated at one large table. As
a rule the meals are served in courses
and the diner never passes up a scrap.
Wine takes the place of coffee and
they actually enjoy the acid stuff. As
a rule the bread comes in in a huge
loaf and each diner grasps the loaf
under his arm and cuts off the desired amount.
Speaking of bread, their treatment
of bread is one of the strangest things
over here. Many of the loaves are of
an amazing size. It is nothing to see
a kid in sabots carrying a loaf almost
as large as he is and never is a loaf
wrapped up. Every Frenchman car-re- s
a couple of liunks of bread in his
pocket which he uses in a way similar
to our tobacco chewers. One sees a
Frenchman reach into his pocket, pull
out a chunk of bread, open his knife
and go leisurely down the street whittling off small slivers and eating them
in a most unconscious way.
Some of the greatest needs of the
country are dentists, tooth brushes,
corsets, steam heat and Fords. At the
age of thirty over here, about one in
twenty have any teeth. It seems criminal to see a good looking girl open
her mouth and show perhaps one or
two teeth. I might , add sayitary
plumbing to my list of requirements,
and there is a fortune over here for
some group of far seeing plumbers.
The villages are a disappointment.
From a distance they are beautiful,
being quaint with gabled roofs of
many colors. As a rule there is a
main street through the village with
innumerable winding, filthy, narrow-laneami side streets running into the
main street. The streets en masse
are an ankle deep loblolly where cows.'
horses, chickens, ducks and dirty
children mingle and enjoy themselves j
in a most democratic manner. The
houses sit jam on the street having '
two entrances, one for the f:ami!y and S
one for the animals and
ivls. As a J
rule the animals get the best of the
deal when it comes to a home for the
family, no matter how large, eat.
sleep and live in two rboms. Directly
in front of the houses is always a
manure pile. They seem to go in for
manure heaps as we do for rose vines.
The results are similar for in both
cases a heavy aroma permeates the
interior whether it is manure heap or
rose vine so it is simply a matter of
one's taste in smells. Always the rich
est man has the larges manure heap
before his door and they are graduated
down to the dinkey one of the village

LETERS FROM OVER THERE
We are glad to announce another
letter from the young nephiew of
Messrs Walter and Alexander Mc
Bryde. We published a letter from
this brilliant young writer last January. We are posative our readers will
enjoy this one:
Dagonville, France, Feb. 13, 1919.
Dear Sister: This letter may not be
a success for I am bound to be interrupted, but I am in the mood and
when possible I always try to cbey the
impulse to write.
This little village we are in is the
crudest place imaginable and our comforts are
We are billeted
in huge odoriferous barns and the
cold is intense. It has been snowing
like the devil all day while the wind
is high and icy. Housed as we are
sickness is becomming common and
in my billet clone there are five fellows in bed. I pity them for it is rotten enough to be well in such a place
but to be sick must be unbearable.
Since we have been here' I have become quite interested in a family of
French refugees. The old adage that
"misery loves company" was fundamental in our meeting. The family
consists of a mother, a boy aged nine,
a girl aged fourteen, and a woman of
about sixty who Is just a friend of the
family's. Their home was at St Mihiel
and they were held prisoners and
worked by the Huns for months. They
saved the girl but that is all and when
they were finally liberated they joined
her here where she had been working
since she fled from St. Mihiel. They
were shop people in St. Mihiel and
were fairly well off but when they
left, their home was destroyed, their
money gone and the future a blank.
They landed here and here they remain doing odd jobs for soldiers passing through.
The young boy of the
family is one of the smartest kids I
have ever seen and awfully good looking. He is well behaved and wonderful to his mother.
He has seen the
most horrible things imaginable but
it hasn't touched him as it has the
girl. I have tought him to count, to
say his A B C's and to sing some of
our American songs. The young girl,
who is a beauty, chooses to work as a
scullery maid to give this boy his little education and what he may need.
She gets twenty-fivfrancs or five
dollars a month and every cent goes
to the family. Marie is the mother, a'
woman of thirty-siwith quite a few
signs remaining of her former bea-itywonderful complexion, good eyesi

The really Berlous endeavor to de

ranch began to be made along about
190G. About that time through the
death of C. H. Willis. W. F. Sanborn

reported to the owner Mr. A. S. Wilcox that one of two courses should
be adopted. Either close down the
ranch and wind it up, or develop and
build it up along modern scientific
lines, until it should become a well
estate.
stocked and
This would call for a big outlay, and
a lot of hard work, extending over n
long term of years. But it was the
only way to success. To go on as
they had been going was to throw
good money after bad to no purpose,
After careful consideration the policy
of development was adopted and has
been faithfully and consistently carried out ever since.
The ranch lands at that time were
a jungle of lantnna, guava and puhala
there were no fences, only one small
paddock; no equipment to amount to
anything; nothing but the wild grasses
of the country, except that a start had
been made with buffalo grass; there
were only some S00 head of cattle,
mostly of the scrub, mongrel Mexican
variety introduced by Vancouver a
hundred years before.
It was a herculean job to clear the
land, some 3000 acres, plow it thorseoughly, and plant it
lected grasses. It took eight years,
and a lot of money, but it was the
only way to make a ranch.
The beautiful velvet slopes dotted
with herds of sleek, fat, contented
cattle now in place of the wild scarecrows lost in the jungle there, this Is
a picture that speaks for itself.
Experimental grasses from all quarters of the globe, to the number of
over 50 varieties, were tried, the experiments running over years in some
cases, with the result that thepaspa- lum have won out over all competitors, especially paspalum diletatum.

as though the latter, in the long, run
would prove the most worthy.
It has the rare ability of being able
to hold its own agrinst the most aggressive of weeds around it, and will
grow and cover a bare slope of the
very poorest ground.
Through a long process of stock
improvement the mongrel cattle of
the old days have been eliminated

800 lbs. live weight was about the
maximum, whereas now the maximum
runs to 1800 or 2000 lbs. In the olden
days they were so gaunt and thin,
that it took five years to get them up
to a saleable weight, whereas with the
improved stock it can bo done in two
years.
The improved stock has been imported from New Zealand, Washington, Oregon, and Missouri. To begin
with New Zealand was the place for
good stock, but more recently the Pacific Coast has come to the front, and
now stands well.
Formerly 800 head was the round

all that it would stand, overrun as it
was with every noxious weed that
grows and a wilderness of jungle.
And the cattle were all as poor as

2000 head, and the place isn't anywhere near being as much over stocked as it was then.
For years of course there was little
or no income. A few cattle were sold
locally, but nothing was shipped and
the sales didn't cut much figure along
side the expenses.
This condition of things, happily
has been all changed, and since 1915
there has been a steadily growing
balance on the right Bide, duo to the
decreased outgo, the development
work is pretty well finished and to
the largely increased income consequent on the fi no equipment of the estate.
With an ever increasing demand and with assured high prices for
an indefinite future, the outlook ahead
of Princeville is a particularly bright
one one which will abundantly justify the wisdom of the manager and
the patience and perseverance of the
owners.

The federal survey of schools, after
years of talk about it is really coming
this fall. Professor MacCaughcy, the
superintendent
of education, Is in
receipt of a letter from C'laxton, commissioner of the national bureau of
education, in which he says that it is
his purpose to do the field work of the
survey of the schools of Hawaii early
next fall, as soon as possible after the
opening of the schools. It would take
about two months to do the field work
and the report would be printed about
the middle of December.
As we have surmized, wo haven't
had this survey before because both
I'iiikliam and Kinney were opposed to
it. Doubtless they (eared the revelations it would make.

How often have I heard it said that the
schools are training children away from the
plantation. If this were really true, it would
be a sad condition of affairs and the country
school would be a failure.
If we leave the industrial features out of our
schools and train our pupils solely to the end
that they are fitted to become teachers, stenographers, bookkeepers, clerks, etc., the above
statement would be in some measure true.
However 1 have had this matter under observation for at least six years and it has been particularly interesting to me to note that out of
every hundred pupils released from school at
percent seek employment on
least ninety-fivthe plantation. A few, mostly girls complete
the eighth grade, and enter the Territorial
Normal School or McKinley High.
'Manual Labor Jlonorable
Every effort should made to impress upon
our pupils the fact that plantation work is
profitable and honorable.
The main reason that many plantation laborers find it difficult to live on their wages is that
they depend upon the dollar for everything.
On the other hand we find those who directly
or indirectly, through the influence of manual
training, are making creditable looking furniture for their homes instead of buying it. We
find them raising chickens, keepiug cows, pigs,
bees and cultivating vegetable gardens. Some
of the latter class have bank accounts and it
goes without saying that they live better and
are more contented than their less provident
neighbors. Most of the vegetables sold in our
community are raised by former pupils who
took an interest in school gardens.
.Train for Work on the Plantation
Give our pupil the training they need and
they will not want to leave the plantations.
In every school of ten or more teachers there
schould be one whose entire time is devoted to
Industrial Training, another to Domestic
Science.
In the shop, the boys should be taught to
make mission furniture, I say mission because
of its simplicity of design and neatness in appearance. They should do some cabinet work,
learn to frame houses and work at the forge.
Of course we should find out what each is best
fitted to do and let him specialize.
In the field, they should be taught the cultivation of cane, rice, pineapples, taro, etc, in the
garden, to raise vegetables and fruits adapted
to the soil and climatic conditions. The selection of things to be grown on the school farm
would depeutl largely, of course, on the location of the school and the particular industry
in which the plantation, upon which the school
is located, is engaged.
Plantation Would Cooperate
I think there would be no difficulty iu getting the plantation managers to turn over to
the "Class in Farming," sufficient ground to
teach the cultivation of cane, on terms somewhat similar to those extended to contract
labor.
Every boy who is old enough, say from ten
years old and up, regardless of grade, should
have five hours of ''Industrial Training" a
week, and more if possible. It has been my experience that boys come willingly at eight lu
the morning and some times earlier to shop and
garden and few ever object to staying until
three in the afternoons

son, interfere with "Academic Training." In
lact, it has been my experience that it awakens
an interest in the latter. Besides Industrial
Training takes care of the boy, so constituted
mentally, that he cannot accomplish much in
his grades. Such boys often become expert
gardeners or skillful cabinet makers, though
their grade work may be considered a failure.
Valuable to Plantations
It stands to reason that plantations would
prefer trained employees. How many plantation laborers today know the value of putting
humus into the soil, the art of supplying the
proper plant foods, how to properly cultivate
the soil, or why they do these things? They
labor faithfully enough, undoubtedly, but the
most beautiful part of their labor is lost in ignorance.
The Dignity of Labor.
We must educate our boys away from the
the idea that clerking, office work, etc., are
more dignified than using tools and making
things grow. ..It was the mechanic and the
farmer that helped our soldiers to wiu the war,
rather than the clerk or the office man, though
each had his place in the great struggle for
''right against might." The farmer boy has a
freer, happier life than the boy cooped up in a
store from morning until night.
Teach Economy.
Domestic Science has a place no less important than carpentry or field work in the plantation school. It was the food saved that won
the war. The proper and economical preparation of food in the home promotes health, happiness and prosperity. The Domestic Science
teacher steps in and takes up the work where
the teacher in Industrial Training leaves off.
Culture.
..Teaching patriotism, politeness, kindness
and thoughtfuluess of others should have a
prominent place iu our schools. I would rather see a boy kind, honest, earnest, a good citizen, then to see him highly educated and lacking in these essentials to true manhood.
We should cultivate iu our pupils the desire
to read the current news and suitable books
selected from the school library, and from the
Library of Hawaii.
Instead of roaming the
streets and getting into mischief as uncultured
children are wont to do, you will see them during the evenings reading the news or interesting stories to their parents, brothers and sisters. It is interesting to see how eagerly the
children of the upper grades devour every paper and book that they can get hold of.
Academic Work.
A large per cent of plantation children leave
school before they reach the Eighth Grade. All
pupils should be encouraged to complete the
eight grades if possible. By so doing they will
be better prepared to meet the more practical
problems of life. Of course where a boy intends to specialize in some such branch of
plantation work, as a chemist or surveyor, he
will find high school and college a necessity.
This Article is not written to discourage
higher education. But iu as much as we know
that the majority of our pupils will never go
beyond the Eighth Grade, it is our duty while
we have them under our tuition to train their
heads, hands and hearts, so that they may not
only become good citizens, but be able to successfully cope with such problems in daily life
as they must necessarily meet.

OVER IRRIGATION
CANE
OF SUGAR
BEST WAY TO CONTROL
LICE
Results of observations on the use
of irrigation water in Hawaii by experts from the Hawaiian Sugar Planter's Association Station show that
excessive irrigation of sugar cane is
quite frequently practiced by cano
growers at an extra expense to the
planter with no beneficial result derived therefrom.
At an experiment harvested at the
Waipio Substation last year to which
irrigation water had been applied in
varied measured amounts it was
found that practically the same yields
were had from plots receiving 2.45
8.79 acre feet per crop. An acre
5.59
foot is 325,850 gals of water or the
amount of water that will cover one
acre to a depth of one foot.
The experiment was conducted by
applying the water in fifteen day intervals; great care was taken to prevent any water being lost by surface
run off and the experiment was irri
gated by the same man throughout
the season, thus eliminating the personal factor always present in an ir
rigation study. Measurements were
made by means of a twofoot crippo- letti weir installed about 500 feet from
the experiment field. During each irrigation, a flow of .431 cubic feet per
second, or a "man's water" of 110,000
gallons per day of ten hours was
maintained, and the stated amounts
of water were obtained by applying
this flow to the various plots for varied lengths of time.
The results of the treatments with
varied amounts of irrigation water
are given by R. M. Allen who conducted the experiments os follows:
800,000 gal. 56.G0 tons cane.
1,920,000 gal. 57.48 tons cane.
2.8G0 gal. 57.46 tons cane.
Juice samples from the experiment
were somewhat unsatisfactory and although the sugar yields were in accordance with the above results they
were not considered reliable, hence
only the cane yields were reported.
It is interesting to note the uniformity of the yields under the three widely different amounts of water, and although there is somewhat of a question as to the applicability of these
results on a large scale, it is believed
that the general tendency of the results is reliable.

say about their tractor.
Tho Wichita Agricultural Tractor
has been designed and built by the
same engineers that designed and
built Wichita trucks now famous in
54 countries of tho world,
it is a
modern machine, tho bcBt responding
to tho most modern engineering principles in its line, It is a machine that
has tho qualities of tho best tractors
built today, none of their drawbacks.
With efficiency in view wo have
given to our tracor a strong construction, plenty of reserve power to moot
any emergency condition, overcome
AVo
any obstacle.
have further
hermetically enclosed all working parts
to defend them from sand, dirt, dust,
etc. If you look at tho motor It will
present you a strong wall of steel, nil
valves, springs, shafts, distribution
gears being water and dust tight.
Tho only vulnerable point of this motor, tho air intako of tho carburetor,
through which dust could reach the
cyclinders, has been equipped with a
dust collector which lets tho air
through but not tho dust.
Dimensions of parts, careful selection of material, abovo named devices
to make all working parts dirt and
dust proof account for durability of
tho machine.
These same devices
rendering very scarce tho need of re
pairs account for economy in cost of
maintenance of the machine.
As to cost of operation it Is enough
to say that at
test our machine gave a consumption of gallons
1
of kerosene (common coal oil)
per acre, while working hard on sandy
soil pulling at tho same time a 4 fur
row 14 inch moldboard plow and a 12
row seeder behind the plow.
The above are such qualities that
cannot fail to appeal to your good and
sound business sense.
Tho Wichita Tractor is such a ma'
chine that will fully respond to your
expectations, and we firmly hope that
you will allow our good agents to de
monstrato to you by force of facts the
service that the Wichita tractor will
be able to render.
The Wichita tractor can be used in
the field and on tho road, will econo
mically plow, harrow, sow your fields,
harvest your crops, haul them on the
road to market, it is the ideal ma'
chine you have been looking for, that
for the least expense gives a maximum of efficiency.
