Is 1 Famed oberf Louis Stevenson Banyan Tree On Oahu To Be Felled a decision was made to fell the tree. The owner said he wishes it could be maintained as a park but the lot is not big enough and the protests are too strong. Work was to begin Monday in removing the famous landmark but complications have delayed it. Mr. Flint said the plaque on the tree will be retained on property where he plans to construct some type of monument of stone or cement.

On the plaque are lines from a poem Stevenson wrote for the young princess when she left for school in Europe: "The daughter of a noble race. "Her islands herein southern sun, "Shall mourn their Kaiulani gone, "And in her dear banyan shade, "Look vainly for my little maid." Were Stevenson alive he would undoubtedly write a silimar poem for the tree that meant so much to him and the little princess. A U. S. Public Health Survey on the eyes of 1,000,00 persons showed that 20 per cent of those in the 17-18 year age group had visual problems: 39 per cent of those at the age of 30; 71 per cent of those at 50, and 80 per cent of those at 60.

ssistance radices Fewer Cows Imported In '48 HONOLULU Only 1,147 mainland cows were imported into the territory in 1948 compared to 2,193 in 1947. The maritime strike was responsible for part of the decrease. In January 1949, about 150 cows were imported compared to 20 in January 1948. The average daily milk production in the territory in December was 9.3 quarts per cow. This is about the same as during the last four months of 1948, but slightly higher than a year earlier.

Figures for January production have not yet been compiled, but many Oahu dairymen report that production in January was lower than in December. However, they expect some improvement in February. The mid- January rain storms flooded corrals and dairy barns in some places on Oahu. 3 Road Officials To Arrive Today Three officials of the public roads administration are scheduled to ar rive here today for a lour day- inspection tour of federal aid road and bridge projects on the Big Island.

Tf'T- Tile IT'iill -iiii nn ZBU ungns i ii ir A COLUMBIA HONOLULU (By Radio Teletype) One of Honolulu's famed land marks, Princess Kaiulani's banyan tree in Waikiki, is going to be given the ax, and literally so. The tree, whose life was so hotly disputed last year, is to be chopped down.

J. Donovan Flint, owner of the property on which the tree now stands, said this action was decided following heavy condemnation of the banyan by neighbors who say it is "rat, cat and termite infested." They also complained of the amount of leaves, trash and dirt caused by the tree and said its con dition invited careless people to throw their garbage under its roots. The famous banyan tree on Tusi- tala street marks the site of Aina hau, Waikiki, estate of the Hon. A. S.

Cleghorn and Princess Like- like, the parents of Kaiulani. And it was under this tree that Robert Louis Stevenson spun fan ciful tales for the lovely little princess. Now it sprawls ugly and dirty, crowded by beach cottages. wnen tne uiegnom estate was purchased by the Wilder estate for subdivision, the area around the famed banyan was set aside as a public park. Later the Daughters of Hawaii became the custodians of the little plot and saw to it that the area was kept clean.

During the war Mr. Flint said he took over its care. He reported the Daughters of Hawaii offered the plot to the city-county but it was refused. Mr. Flint purchased the 49 50 lot in August and gained clear title in November.

It was then the neighbors renewed their protest and ect engineer for the Hamakua coast highway project. Accompanying Mr. Klein, will be Charles C. Morris, division engineer. San Francisco, and Frank R.

SI" jgfJrM Makes. HONOLULU Farmers in the territory will receive increased assistance in the performance of soil conserving practices under the 1949 agricultural conservation program, according to Will N. King, director of the production and marketing administration office in Honolulu. A recently approved amendment to the 1949 Handbook makes it pos sible for farmers on approval of the state office to receive payments greater than presently permitted under the farm allowance provision of the program. This will be of special interest to producers with small holdings.

The farm allowance provision requires that payments for conservation work on any one farm not exceed the amount determined according to acreage and the follow ing rates: For cropland: $4.00 per acre for the first 10 acres and $1.00 per acre for any additional acreage. For range and pasture land: 40 ceuts per acre for the first 1000 acres and 10 cents for any addition al acreage. In no case, however, are pay ments to exceed $750 per farm. Under tie new amendment a 20- acre truck crop farm with normal farm allowance of $50 may be made eligible for a larger amount on request of the producer and dem onstrated need for conservation practices earning additional amounts. Applications for increases in farm allowances should be filed with the PMA office at 303 Dil lingham Building, Honolulu on form ACP-FA (49) or by letter, not later than June 30, 1949.

Forms may be secured from the PMA office in Hilo as well as in Honolulu or from county offices of the agricultural extension service.
