Prior to European contact, early Hawaiians farmed sweet potatoes, dry land taro and harvested wood, birds and pigs from forested areas (the bare slopes you see today, were once covered with sweet smelling Sandlewood and Koa trees). Modern agriculture began in 1845 on what is now Ulupalakua Ranch lands, that era lasting until 1856 when Linton L. Torbert, active member of the Royal Hawaiian Agricultural Society, farmed potatoes and corn, primarily to supply island merchant ships and California’s ‘gold rush’ era, with direction from King Kamehameha III, planted sugar cane.

The Tepfer House, Keokuk.—On our way to Athens last Sunday, we were induced to stop over night at the Tepfer House, on the corner of Third and Johnson streets. Mr. J. H. Tepfer, formerly of the "Deming,” is the gentlemanly proprietor. This is probably the largest and finest hotel building on the river above St. Louis. It occupies over a half block, and is five tall stories high. It is fitted up with all the modern improvements, and furnished on a grand and magnificient scale, which makes it rank among the foremost hotels in the country.
