RICE CARRIERS OF MADAGASCAR.

Returning to coffee and conjecture
Presumably, every grower in Hawaiian
territory, large and small, cures his own
coffee. The result of this is disaster to
the enterprise.
Before Hemileia vastatrix destroyed
999-1,O0O of the coffee estates in Ceylon,
out of a crop of nearly one million hun
dredweight, not one ounce was cured by
the grower. 1t was all sent to Colombo
in semi-dried parchment, there to be pre-
pared and shipped for market A uni
form charge was made for this, equal to
a little more than one dollar per hun
dredweight.
What should be done by Hawaiian cof-
fee-growers is past conjecture; their
course is clear in theory and only
wants to be put into practice Let a
modified Ceylon plan be adopted Modi-
fed 1T must be, owing to the large num-
Der OF small proprietors whose limited
distinct shipments.
How best to follow in well-tredden
footsteps is a question that requires
careful consideration by those most in
terested still. perhaps, some good may
arise by opening the bail with the sug-
gestions of an outsider. In the hope
that such may be the case the following
/ IDEAS are submitted
! Create curing and shipping estab-
lishment Let all coffee be buiked on
arrival, for preparation and shipment, ex-
cept that which may be sold locally.
! On delivery, the establishment should
be in position to pay the consignor a
certain sum, even though 1t be but a
small one-for the quantity of coffee
sent; this would keep the now threaten
| ing wolf from the doorl
Periodically-say after each seasons
! crop had been disposed of, the books of
the establishment would be made up. and
the proceeds of all sales, after deduct
ing expenses for curing, etc, be divided
pro rata amongst the consignors, accord
ing to the amount of parchment sent

Why the Industry
Is Losing Its
Hold.
EXPERTS ADVICE
TO THE PLANTERS
Cooperation the Touchstone Of
Success and the Future
With II Brilliant.

A few weeks ago a letter appeared in
the columns of the Advertiser, to which
was appended the signature of we'll
known coffee-planter in Hawaii
The gist of the letter was to show that
the coffee industry in Hawaiian terri
tory is rapidly ''goingfto the dogs" and
that unless someone-who in particular
is not mentioned-comes to the rescue,
lit will soon arrive at this ill-starred
destination.
A story is told that "once upon a
time not many years ago" a military
man having discovered a liaison of a
questionable character between his Wife
and brother-officer, carried his griey-
ance to the colonel of the regiment. and
asked him, What he should dog With
an angry gesture, combined with look
of contempt, the superior officer banged
his fist on the table and exclaimed,
- it all sir, what have you done?'
This interlude is somewhat irrelevant
| to the matter under review. but the
Question put by the uncompromising col
onel to the inactive outraged husband
may pertinently be asked the bewailing
Hawaiian Northumberland have
| you done?'
There seems to be little doubt that the
latter is at the present time sorely puz-
zled how TO make two ends meet.

| of plant begin to droop and become
limp, the first thing that he does is to
iexamine it's roots. So it should be with
the coffee-g growing fraternity in these
Islands; let them get at the root of
their distress.
| Were Hawaiian coffee-planters asked
individually to give their opinion as to
the cause of the existing gloomy out
Hook the probabilities are the replies
would be as diversified as the colors of
a kaleidoscope. And therein lies one inn
Iportant element; for ii diseloses a want
lof unanimity in the industry.
| To make this industry success, it is
necessary that there should be coalition
lamongst the growers. Primarily. there
lshould be a mutual understanding as TO
1.-THE price to be paid for labor, and the
number of hours each day the laborers
should be called upon to work. In this
way the pay list would be kept down,
las no one estate would then offer greater
Involvement than another in the points OF
work and wage.

The advantages of a central curing es-
adjustment are so patent that they
scarcely need demonstration. Less labor
would be required on the estates-a great
consideration-and the proprietor, or
manager would be spared the time and
trouble that he has now to devote to the
preparation of his crops.
Should the planters themselves not be
in position to finance this suggested
establishment, surely the sugar industry
does not absorb all the enterprise and
capital in the Territory,
With the planters cooperation, a cen
trail coffee-curing establishment could be
worked on private lines, to the benefit of
both parties.
The suggestions are but in a crude
form; they may, however, be basis for
a perfect system of cooperation amongst
the members of the planting community,

! fee does not necessarily mean selling it
right off the reel. Money will have to
be spent in advertising and in paying
pushing agents Both Indian and Cey-
lon planters spend thousands of pounds
annually in the United States, Australia
and on the Continent in introducing
their teas. Planters in Ceylon petition
ed the local Government to collect an
iexport duty on their produce. This is
done, and the whole of the proceeds
arising therefrom is handed over to a
lcommittee of thirty, who distribute it

blow the trumpet and Ceylon teas SELL

aside their lethargy; not wait to be fed,
