tai AS soon as the company is in

reasonable advances pc made 10 reh-
ape planters II OUTSIDE capltaI can
De INDUCED 10 make advances 10 pan
ters, 1t would be a sound proposition
for the plantation to guarantee the ac-
count taxing security on the iand ana
crops for so doing, and further pro-
, tecting itself by having the advances
made guaranteed by this company in
the way OF accepted orders, inspection
being made from time to time as to
the progress and value of the work. I
earnestly recommend consideration of
this plan, believing that if it is adopted
several thousand acres of additional
land will be brought under cultivation
as soon as the necessary capital is
available.
1T was expected that the mill would
be ready in August or September last
Owing to the delay in completion 1T
was thought best not to hold the 24I
acres of cane planted for seed cane

tasseled, and the same was sold to the
Waiakea Mill Company the proceeds
of same amounting to SAG, 422.29 net
The crop amounts to $500 acres of
plantation cane; and planted by out
siders 929 acres, amounting in all to
4,429 acres, less the above 24I acres,
leaving 4lS2 acres, is now being
ground.
1T is too early in the season to make
definite estimate of what the total
yield will amount to, but l feel con-
tident that the estimate Of last year, of
, five tons to the acre, will be fully
borne out.
Estimated area of second crop is as
follows: Plant cane, 2,O6O.5 acres; long
ratoons, 3295 acres; twelve months
ratoonS, LOOO acres; estimated Puma
sugar Co, l,lOO acres; estimated other
outside land owners~ 800 acres; total,
4,99O acres.
The varieties of plantation cane for
the second crop are: Lahalna, 2,iOo
acres; Caledonia, 2OO acres; rose pam
boo, 800 acres; yellow bamboo, 10
acres; total, $3.50 acres.
