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

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

As he passed one of the large gas
tanks a half-grown deer leaped at
him. Grabbing the deer by a hjnd
leg, Gabriele shouted for help. Two
other workmen responded, and the
deer was safely locked up In a pen
and the county gamekeeper notified
It Is believed the animal escaped from
the Rockefeller estate and swam the
Hudson.
