Planters Association a committee was
appointed by that body to confer with
the Government on the subject of for
estry. AS a result of such conferences
measures were mutually adopted to es-
tablish lines of forest limits on all the
larger islands of the Territory. Agents
have oeen appointed by the Govern
ment for this purpose and the work has
been begun. A very earnest feeling
among sugar planters and other land
holders upon this subject is evident
The Executive desires that the Gov
ernmeny shall act with these men
promptly and effectively and to that
end l recommend the enactment of leg
islation that shall promote measures for
the protection and extension of our
forests more fully than is possible un-
der our present laws, and the appro-
priation of public moneys to assist in
carrying out such policy.
HAMAKUA FIRES.
In july August and September Of
1901 extensive and destructive forest
fires occurred in the District of IIa-
makua on the Island of Hawaii A long
drought had exposed that locality to
such calamity. The area burned over
consisting of public and private lands
is estimated at about 10000 acres. The
Government had no funds with which
TO check these fires but effected an ar
rangement with the neighboring plant
ers by which number of their labor
ers were available for this purpose.
With this force and with the assistance
of the early fall rains the fires were,
after a long struggle gradually eXtin-
guishe !. Appropriations should be made
for The prompt payment of the eN-
penses incurred, with interest.
There is a prospect that the Forestry
| Bureau of the United States will fur
nish the Territory with an expert for
ester who will organize a forestry bu-
reau here. Reasonable appropriations
for the pay and expenses of such an Of
! ficer should be made.
1t is important for forest protection
from insects that the destruction of GER
tain forest birds should be prevented;
to this end | would recommend the en-
actment of law for the protection Of
all forest birds and all birds not game
birds.
The Commissioner of Public Lands
has been somewhat crippled in the work
of his flee, especially in the proceed
ings for land settlement through insult
/ ficient appropriations. The moderate
| increase placed in the estimates, will, if
adopted, materially strengthen this I'M
portan. department.
In view of the Importance of the Ter
rtory Of having American farmers set
| tie on our public lands, ! recommend
that an additional item be placed to the
credit of this departmen in the appro-
priation bill, for disseminating infor-
nation on the mainland in regard tc
lands that may, from time to time, be
| opened for settlement.

gested that the Territorial Government

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.

l believe it is important for the Ter
rtory to have as Immediately as pos
sible the opportunities of education and
the stimulus to a varied agricultural
development which such an institution
would confer. l propose to refer again
to this subject in connection with the
loan estimates.
The report of the Superintendent of
Public Works calls for extensive APP
preparations for many much needed
public Improvements, but much larger
in the aggregate than can be met un-
der oar present limited resources. A
large proportion of my recommends
ations in this department Will be given
in the loan estimates
The work of selecting the objects of
expenditure which are most essential,
and discharging those which can be put
off with the least injury to the public
welfare, requires careful investigation
and a deep patriotic sentiment which
will not sacrifice the interests of the
whole public to those of part of it.
The report of the Superintendent of
Public Instruction calls for a large in
crease of appropriations for teachers
salaries and building school houses.
The population of school children in
the Territory is increasing more rapid
ly than the government has been able
to build school houses New school
houses require an increase in the teach
ing force. l believe the recommends
tions referred to are conservative as
they should be and should be adopted.
The estimates for new school buildings
will be reported to you in the loan esti-
mates.
KINDERGARTENS.
I submit for your consideration the
question of introducing kindergarten
instruction into our school system.
There is no doubt that with children
whose race language Is other than Eng
lish and those whose surroundings are
not civllizing, a kindergarten course is
very valuable preparation for the
lower grades of our system. The Ter
ritory, however, at the present time is
unable to take up such an undertaking.
upon general scale for financial rea
sons.
/ would recommend that provisions
be made for establishing kindergar-
ten in connection with the Normal
School, thus giving normal pupils an
opportunity of acquiring the principles
OF kindergarten instruction. In this
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1903-02-20

way teaching force will be acquired
which may in the future make the in
PRODUCTION of such instruction into the
public schools, a practical scheme.
] would call your attention TO the
sad case of a number of children who
are ineligible for admission into the
public schools on account Of their in
ability to pass the required medical eX-
aminations. Some provision should be
made for the education of these chill
dren. AS their number is small in any
one locality, it may be impracticable to
provide instruction for them at their
homes. There does not seem to be any
insurmountable objection to legislation
that would gather them at some place
or places according to their numbers,
and provide them with instruction and
careful medical attendance as well as
food, clothing and lodging. Such
plan would be in their own and public
interests.
LEPROSY DECREASING.
l have recommended in the estimates
an increase of appropriation for the
Queens Hospital This institution now
maintains a free ward for the poor of
all nationalities, beside furnishing free
treatment of government patients
Public patronage is constantly increas-
ing.
/ feel justified in expressing my con-
viction that the disease of leprosy is on
the decline in the Territory from the
following showing derived from the
reports of the Board of Health.
The settlement on MolOkai was es-
tablished in 1866 during which year 14l
patients were admitted. The policy OIL
/ segregation was loosely carried out for
/ a number of years after the establish
ment of the settlement. During the
/ first seven years the patients admitted
averaged ia per annum, and the larg-
est number admitted in any one year
was 1873. In 1873 a stricter enforcement
of the law was carried out, and 4S7 pa
/ tents were sent to the settlement.
/ Thereafter until 1887 the law Of segre-
cation was only partially enforced and
the number of admissions during those
years averaged l4l per annum and the
/ largest number admitted in any one
years was 3Ol
/ Since 1887 the law has been vigiiant-
| ly carried out. The number of admis-
/ sions in 1883 was $40; in sections of
three years each we find the number
of admissions to be as follows:
! 1890 to 1892 inclusive. .................454
/ 1898 to 1895 inclusive. ..................4 45
! 1896 to 1898 inclusive ..................3 $50
1899 to 1901 inclusive. .................25 4
From these figures it would appear
that with strict segregation the disease
| has steadily diminished, while, without
strict segregation, it shows tendency
| to spread.
The following table gives the average
number of patients at the settlement
for three periods of ten years each,
with the average death rate for the
| same periods
