HERDS OF GOATS HAMPER III ISLAND COFFEE AREA Hundred* of the Animal* Killed In Drive in the Kona Distrlot of Hawaii. New York.—A description of the cof fee raising Industry In the Kona dls trict of the Island of Hawaii, which la expected within a few years to help relieve the frequent disturbances In the coffee market here, 1* given by <ieorge T. Armltage of Honolulu. He believes that the growth of the Kona product has been retarded to some ex tent by goat* and, to a greater degree, by the rapidly spreading guava plant. "They told us that everything grows In Kona,” said Mr. Armltage, “and there was ample evidence to prove It. It la the proverbial Hawaiian land of milk and honey, whose coffee has an aroma not equaled even in Brazil While coffee ta the principal crop, they also raise tobacco, hemp, cotton and even sugar. The only sugar mill in the territory operated hy Japanese la there. “Coffee grows everywhere, and It Is ever to be *een springing luxuriously out of rocka where apparently one '•ould not acrape up a peck of soli on an acre of ground. The chief enemies of coffee and other Kona crops are guava and goats, and, unfortunately, guava Is about the only thing the goat won’t eat. The ranchers hope some day that an Insect similar to those which have destroyed other [iests will be found to cope with the guava. “The goats arc so numerous that the ranchers conduct drives several rimes a week which net hundreds of these animals, yet they make only a small Impression on the thousands that are eating up the crops. In one drive last year, by a combined army of boy scouts and soldiers, nearly 7,000 gouts were captured. Almost as many more escaped, and afterward the partici pants In the roundup had to go out seeking the boy scouts, who became exhausted and ruined their shoes scrambling over the lava. “Kather unsatisfactory attempts have been made to poison the goats, and an effort to reduce their number hy the use of dogs was frustrated by the acumen of the goats In remaining on the roughest variety of the lava, which In a few moments reduces the paws of a pursuing dog to pulp.” Mr. Armltage, who made a tour over the entire Island of Hawaii, largest In the territory, told of finding what he describes as "probably the largest bed in Christendom,” at Kealakekua. “It Is an Immense four-poster of the old school,” be said, “built entirely of wood from the koa tree, and so vast that It fills an entire room. A whole family of large size could sleep In It and not disturb each other. It was built in the days when koa was plentiful by a woman who wanted to do something different, and a glimpse of the bed con vinces one that she succeeded. Koa once covered the mountains, but forag ing cattle, by exposing the roots, have killed nearly all of these valuable trees.” At Kealakekua Mr. Armltage found a native Hawaiian woman who assert ed that she was bom In .he year that King Kamehameha I died, 105 year* ago. Residents of the town who have checked up on Incidents which the aged woman remembered believe she Is fully as old as site claims to be. Develops Tropical Apple After Years of Effort Lexington. Texas.—For many years H. C. Helms, a horticulturist who died a few days ago at his home near here, devoted his efforts to develop ing a species of apple that could be successfully grown In the southern states and In the more tropical parts of the world. He finally accom plished his purpose and from one thlrty-flve-year-old apple tree which he grew In his orchard, two miles west of Lexington, the new species of apple has spread to Cuba, the Isle of F’lnes, various parts of southern Texas und to Florida. It Is stated that the United States Department of Agriculture has done j much toward Introducing the so-called tropical apple to localities where ths fruit was never before grown. Island Swallowed by Sea London.—Port Alexander, a small Island In the Portuguese colony of Angola. West Africa, has been sudden ly submerged In the sea and disap peared, according to a Lisbon dispatch to the Sunday Express. No details have been received, but a considerable loss of life Is feared, as the Islet, which wus 4.000 square yards In area was Inhabited by Portuguese and ne- i tire settlers. Long Trip for Leg Chattanooga, Tenn.—Judge Plerrs Crabltes, representative of the United States on the Cairo International court, who recently arrived In Chattanooga, traveled 8,000 miles to get an artificial leg. Judge Crabltes lost his right leg last year when h^*was struck by a street cur. He was forced to travel to New York to purchase his substitute lag. Old Chestnuts Blchwood, W. Vs.-—'Twenty-three years ago a little girl, Belly Reid, living on her father’s term In Rock bridge county, Virginia, gathered a box of chestnuts and sent them to Henry Holt, a farmer boy living at Oanley Bridge, W. Va. This fall Sally ; Reid, long since Mrs. Henry Holt, I found these chestnuts hidden away In ! an old trunk and well preserved. 1 BRIEFS — We need more grocery stores and; fewer pool parlors. The United Cigar Stores corpora tion employs colored clerks in a num ber of their Chicago stores. Doctors of medicine, including about 2,600 colored, represent the largest single group of professional men in the country. It was Roosevelt who said, “Take a chance: The man who never makes a mistake is the man who never does anything.” There is a practicing colored attor ney in the State of Delaware. Interracial committees in several southern states are doing splendid work among the “Africs” and Nordics. That wonderful machine operated by the Hon. Edward H. Wright had more than enough gas to make the grade in the recent Chicago alder manic election. _ All of the loud speakers are not at-1 tached to radio outfits. AMERICA EATS UR ITS INCOME People Soend Fourth for Stuff That Goes Into the Mouth. New York,—America eats up Its In come. What people put into their mouths. Including tobacco, represents more money thin all other expendi tures at retail stores combined. Ten years ago one-fifth of one's Income was deemed sufficient for food. Bui the figure has now risen to 27 per cent. And most families, says -Mrs. Christine Frederick, founder of the Applecroft House Experiment station at Oreen lawn, L. I., spend from 35 to 40 per cent of their Income on food, xrrs Frederick has surveyed the changed American hmfget for the American Academy of Political and Social Science. The hill for the entire nation at re tall food stores in KXtp was $4,000,000. 0O0, as calculated by l>r. Paul H. Nys trorn, head of the Retail Research as sociation. In 11121 this wjts doubled and is almost doubled again today. Of the lotal national income of $08,000. 000.000, estimated for 1924, according to his figures, almost half goes to re tail stores; and of this $35,000,000,000. $15,000,000,000 goes to food stores. $1,700,000,000 to tobacco shops and $1,500,000,000 to dealers in candy and soft drinks. Spent in Stores. Almost $81100.000,1X10 is spent In clothing stores. $3,500,000,000 on auto mobiles, $1.300.000.000 in furniture and housefurnishing stores and $1. 000,000.000 in Jewelry and music shops Americans eat more in calories than most other peoples. Alonzo E. Taylor, food expert, puts the American calories average at 3,050 to 3.900 a day. In the United Kingdom the average Is 2,800 calories and In Italy 2.560. Our climate Is, of course, on the whole, much cold er than that of either of those coun tries and we need more housing f<s>d. Ten per cent of the American people are said to cat more than 4.IXX) calories a day without the hard work that Jus tifies this. In the last ten or fifteen years ho tels and eating places ill this country have Increased 40 per cent to a total of 125,000. There are 85.000 confec tionery stores selling 18 pounds of candy a person a year to the people of the United States. This Is an increase of 300 per cent in a few decades. Candy and soft drinks represent 6 per cent of the food bill. Kefore the Civil war a few pounds of sugar a person a year was the consumption. In 191C It was 79 pounds, now It is 100. But tea and coffee are said to he growing less popular and meat consumption dropped from 181.5 pounds a persoD in 1900 to 132 In 1917. Pickles and Diamonds. The nation's expense account In per capita terms for a year, as reported by the Business Bourse. International, throws light on the requirements anfl tastes of Americans. For diamonds the American on the average spends annually $2.58. He spends 22 cents for dentifrices, $1.30 on pickles and 18 cents on pens, hoth fountain and steel. He puts out $4.15 for near beer and 6 cents for ink ; $3 for ice cream and 90 cents for eggs; $3.75 for toilet soap and $1.10 for hooks. He spends $27 on Joy riding and kindred activities and $1.29 for the work of religion. Five dollars go for Jewelry Hnd 15 cents for art works. Eleven cents Is Invested in health service and 65 cents is spent for coffins. Nine dollars go for per fumery and cosmetics and 32 cents for watches. Ten dollars is spent on pub lic schools and $1.85 Is invested in shirts. He spends $45 for luxurious foods and gives 8 cents to the salaries of professors.

NEW PLANT RACES ARE SOUGHT FOR THE WORLD Scientists Urgo Co-Operation of Medi cine and Botany in Vast Plan of Research. New York. — Enormous economic losses cnn be checked, und the coot of the food supply cut, by creating new races of plants, It was declared In a re port by the scientific directors of the New York Botanical garden, of which Prof. Robert A. Harper of Columbia university Is chairman. Medicine and botany should join In a vast plan of research to attack the problems of disease In plants, which offer many analogies to disease iu hu man beings, according to the report, made public by the directors, who In clude President Nicholas Murray But ler und members of the science facul ties of Columbia. “With New York gradually becoming the leading medical center of tills coun try,’’ the report says, “and with the opportunity for medical contributions from the side of botany, It would seem most appropriate for the botanical gar den to offer the facilities of Its im mense collections for fundamental re searches Into the problems of dls 1 ease.** Diseases of the great cereal crops are now vitally affecting the welfare of both farmers and consumers, the re : port says, pointing out thut wheat rust in a single year has cost the country more than $20,000,000, and that dry rot of corn Is becoming a pressing j problem, a loss of more than J.Y.OOO, 000 having been suffered during this 1 period In Illinois alone. Plants may provide a new method j of attack for the conquest of human 1 Ills. “There are reasons for believ ing," the report explains, “that many of the fundamental phenomena of dis ease processes applicable to all living beings may be studied In plant us readily ns. If not more readily than, In human beings. "While It is becoming customary to control the infectious diseases of hu man beings by the use of serums und vaccines, this method has so far proved Impracticable with plants; and the common procedure with them is to ap ply poisons by ^praying, dusting or treating the seed.' This entails a per manent cost on the grower, which In the ease of food plants is added to the cost of the human food supply. “If, however, races could lie produced which were Immune to disease, the cost of food production would be so much reduced. It Is now, indeed, gen erally agreed by plant pathologists that it Is In the study of raciul and In herited Immunity and In breeding for disease resistance, rather than In prophylactic measures with existing races, that the solution of the great problem of reducing the enormous losses to agriculture and horticulture due to diseases of both physiological and Infectious origin Is to be sought.” Mines Laid in War Menace Baltic Ships Amsterdam. — Twenty thousand deep sea mines are slowly rising to the surface in the Baltic and adjacent waters and are becoming a formidable menace to shipping, according to A. Flues. Netherlands, consul-general In Hamburg. In a report published here recently Mr. Flaes says thut during the war 00,000 mines were laid between Ber gen, Norway, and the Baltic archlpel ago. Forty thousand of them have been recovered in some way or other; j mostly. It is assumed, through the chains by which they were secured being gradually eaten away by the action of the sea water. The rest are still unaccounted for, and they are reappearing gradually In unexpected places. Deer Leap* at Workman; Caught in Tarrytown Plant Tarrytown, N. Y.—When Alluvlano Gabriele of 109 Cortland street, an employee of the Westchester Lighting company started home at noon he had only one Idea In mind, which was to get a good meal of spaghetti.
