The loss in the total amount OF the
crops in the year is due very largely to
the destructive work of insect pests,
particularly of the leaf-hOpper. The
report of the committee on Expert.
ment Station will deal with the sub
ject OF insect pests.
The seasons during the past year
have on the whole been favorable, al.
though the protracted rains of the
early winter were not advantageous.
The coming crop about to be harvested
looks well but the total yield will prob
ably fall short Of the past years crop.
The plan adopted at the last annual
meeting of having the reports of com
mittees presented In advance so as to
be printed and ready for distribution
at the time of the annual meeting has
been followed and the reports of the
following committees have been so
printed:
Fertilization. Handling and Trans
rortatin of Cane. Manufacture, Ma.
chlnery, Utilization of By.products,
Forestry. Experiment Station, Labor.
Saving Devices.
Having these reports in hand at the
time they are read at the meeting will
add much to the interest and afford
better opportunity for discussion.
The work and responsibilities of the
Board OF Trustees Is constantly grow
ing and the reports Of the various com
mittees show advances which are be
ing made In the sugar industry of these
Islands. With greater competition and
increasing danger from insect pests anc
plant diseases as well as labor diff
culties the successful and profitabl,
production of sugar in these Islands
is demanding effort and work OF higher
lscientific standards than ever before
