GENERAL SUMMARY.
During the past week warm days
have continued, but the nights have
been slightly cooler. During the lat
ter part of the week, a marked de
crease in atmospheric pressure was at
tended by southerly winds and sultry
conditions. Showery and unsettled
weather prevailed in most sections OF
the Group, heavy rains being reported
In many windward localities.
Growing cane Is reported generally
as in good condition and doing nicely,
but young cane needs rain in the Kau
district OF Hawaii. 1906 cane has be
gun to tassel in Kauai. Planting was
finished at Olaa, Hawaii, during tho
past week. Excessive moisture in por
tons of the ITilo district of Hawaii
has kept the ground too wet for sue
cessful cultivation, and has caused y
troublesome growth of weeds. Pine
apple plants are growing nicely in all
sections, but In central Maui dry
spell Is now desirable for the full and
proper development Of winter fruit
Coffee picking is progressing in all Sec
tons. Second crop rice Is heading and
In general promises a good yield. Late
planted rice in the Waioli Valley OF
Kauai Is not doing very well. Wind.
ward and upland pastures are in fair
condition. but many leeward pastures,

Sisal is In good condition in both cen.
trail Maui and leeward Oahu. All re.
