SEEKS MARKET FOR
ISLAND VANILLA BEANS

E. H Edwards, the vanilla bean Gull
turist of Kona, Hawaii arrived yester-
day on the steamer Mauna Loa to
take the S. S. Sierra next Tuesday for
San Francisco. It is Mr.. Edwards S
intention to visit the mainland, not for
the purpose of purchasing machinery
as stated in an afternoon paper, but
to look over the beam buying field. He
will call upon the principal purchasers
of vanilla beans and enter into con-
tracts for what can be supplied from
the Hawaiian Islands.
There is one firm in New York which
has announced that it will take 10000
pounds of beans annually. Mr.. Ed
wards believes the outlook is extreme
ly favorable for disposing of all the
beans that can be raised in the islands.
Il don't think there is any part of
the world so well suited as Hawaii for
the raising of the vanilla beam" he
had a long drought over there the
plants have not been much affected
Among the recent visitors to Mr. Ed
wards's plantation was Mr.. Gay of
Lanai who seemed to be very much
interested in the development of the
bean industry. Many inquiries con-
corning the crop have been received
from island as we'll as mainland peo-
pie.
