Nov. 21.—(By Mail) The possibility that pine apples shortly may challenge the ancient supremacy of sugar Hawaii’s premier crop is seen in the announcement that the islands’ income this year from pineapples will be about $22,000,00, as compared with the sugar crop value of $51,60<v 000.

Ibet WILL CONTINUE TO OFFER EVIDENCE IN THE HERRIN SLAUGHTER CASES Maricn, Ill., Dec. 18.—With four of the live defendant* already point having been aeen with guns during the Herrin riots when twenty unarmed non-union miners were slain the prosecution yesterday appeared continue the prosecution of lti le at the opening of the second week of the trial today. During the four days the court was session last week, a score of wit nesses described the attack on the ’’strip” mine, where the trouble start ed, the death march through Herrin eral hundred singing and shout- len and boys who drove before them six of the blood-stained prison- i, the shooting dow n of the captives and the finding of the mutilated 'So agonized was the expression of despair on the faces of the prisoners that it blotted everything else from my mind,” Delos Duty, state’s attor- -, quoted one of his witnesses as saying to explain his inability to identify members of the mob. Haltingly from the lips of ap parently reluctant and some times protesting witnesses, most of them farmers or miners and all but one long resident! of the community and friends or neighbors of the accused, the state pieced together the stery of the tragedy, never swerving from its announced determination to present the case simply s murder and without any connection with any labor dispute. Two witnesses, George H. Harrison and his son, Fred, a student at the University of Illinois, testified that they had seen a fleeing fugitive shot down by about twenty-five i ran through the fields and that they had later found several bodies, one of them hanging from a tree. Fred Harrison said he previously had seen Bert Grace, a defendant, with a gun in his hand and also Otis Maynard and Dallas McRee, both of whom have been indicted, but neither of whom is a defendant in this | Marshall Lent* and his brother, I. N. Lentz, testified that he had found dead and badly wounded lying in the middle of the road bound ;ogether by a rppe about their neckq hbar the Herrfn Cemeteny. They laid in A small woods they had found fourteen more dead and wounded and latef four more. They added that they met Herbert Walker, who is under indictment, but who is t on trial, with a gun. Donald M. Ewing, a Chicago news paperman, testified he had seen the six dead and wounded men lying in the road in froht of the cemetery, that three of them were still breath ing and that he was prevented from bringing them a drink of water by Bert Grace, who pushed one of the victims with his foot and declared dth a curse “You’ll get no wnter here.” William Goodwin, a farmer living ar here, testified he had crowd of some 500 persons bringing thirty or forty prisoners from the “strip” mine the morning of the kill- He said there were approxi mately a thousand or more spectators about the mine and he had recognized Otis Clark, who was carrying a gun and heard him say: “We ought to kill them all and get rid of the breed.” Later said he heard another man, supposed to be an officer of the miners union say: kill them it will be the worst blow the unions here and in the coun- 7 ever got.” Other witnesses swore they had seen “Leva Minn” and Joseph Car- naghi, both whom are defendants, carrying guns the morning of the riot. Attorneys for the defense led by A. W. Kerr, chief counsel for the Illi nois Mine Workers, cross-examined and excused several of them without asking a question. In his opening statement to the Jury Mr. Kerr declared that he would present evidence to show an abiolote alibi for every one of the defendants and that the killing of non-union resulted from an “invasion” of Wil liamson county by armed guards and “many acta of brutality culminating in the ruthless murder of three union miners.” JOHN G.

Chief among the improvements in cultivating methods is the utilization of the newly discovered paper mul ching process which has increased production on certain Janda .by be tween 25 and 30 percent In experi ments conducted this year.
