Head or Education Department
Resigns.

HONOLULU, Oct. 20.-James
c. Davis Supel intendenr of Public
Instruction, yesterday afternoon
rendered his resignation to Cover
nor Carter. 1t was done orally at
the close of an interview of less
than a quarter of an hour. The
head of the educational department
made a suggestion of the advisa-
bility of his retirement, to which
the Governor promptly agreed.
Superintendent Davis went to
Governor Carter in the executive
chamber to demonstrate against the
reception of complaints by the
Governor relative to school matters
and their transmission by him to
the Department of Public Instruc-
ton, instead of directing the COM
plainants to submit their grew
ances first and direct to the depart
ment through its official head.
$50 long as l am Governor /
shall keep an open door and an
open mail to complaints relating to
any department of the govern
ment," Governor Carter replied to
the remonstrance.
"Then perhaps had better re-
sign my Office" Mr.. Davis is un-
derstood to have reioined.
81 am agreed" was substantially
the Governors answer.
Mr.. Davis retired and within {
few minutes Commissioner w. r.
Harrington of the Board of Ed-S
ucation arrived and had an in
terview behind closed doors with
the Governor.

giving the necessary pressure TO
make it flow freely. These con-
ditions are not to be found in Ha-
waii in conjunction with the other
requirements.
The Nahiku Rubber Co., Ltd,
was incorporated January "a, 1905,
for the purpose of raising rubber
trees at Nahiku, Maui. There are
at this writing [Sept. l about 5000
Ceara plants from 6 months of age
and 10 feet in height, down to seed
lings just coming up in the nursery.
Six hundred Castilloa and 1900
Hevea plants arrived from Ceylon
during the first part of July.
Although it is yet too soon to give
measurements of these, the fact
that they all started to grow within
three weeks of their arrival and
have grown rapidly ever since,
would indicate that the locality is
as suitable for the growth of Hevea
as for that of Ceara.
The plants were packed dry in
kerosene boxes, about eight hum
dred in each, and as they were over
2 months in transit, their vitality
was so low that many were thought
to be dead that have grown even
when nothing was alive but
portion of the root. These are the
results of the work done by the
company, and success is now as
sured.
1t should be remembered that
available localities possessing suit
able conditions are scarce in Ha-
waii; and those intending to plant
should consider the Importance of
securing a man with practical
knowledge of the business, which is
of as much Importance in planting
rubber as in planting cane. Per-
haps it would be well to wait until
the Nahiku Co. has absolutely de-
monstrated that the industry is
practicable in Hawaii, before enga-
ging in the business on an extern
sive scale.
The requisite general conditions
are.
1st.-Good, soft, deep soil, con-
tanning much humus, well drained
either by slope or porosity, pre-
ferably the latter, with gravel or
ash sub-soil.
2nd.-Continuous rainfall of a
hundred or more inches through
out the year. except for Castilloa,
3rd.-Complete protection from
Kona and Trade Winds.
4th.--Elevation should be under
1900 feet, and the temperature
should not 60 below 65.
While it is not absolutely proven
that the trees would not do well
under more adverse conditions, the
industry should be started under
conditions as favorable as possible
until it is firmly established as a
success under such conditions
After which experiments will be
excusable, and perhaps will prove
to be of value.

But Four Varieties of Any Commercial Value.
Seeds Obtained By Bureau of Agr-
culture Do Remarkably Well
SUPERINTENDENT DAVIS RESIGNS.
Head Of Education Department Has Some Words With
Governor Carter And Throws Up His Office
Resignation Probably Accepted.

But four varieties Of rubber pro-
ducing trees are of any commercial
value, viz: Hevea Brazilliensis
(Para), Manihot Glaziovii (Ceara),
both native of Brazil, Castilloa
(both Lactihua and Nicoyensis) of
Mexico and Central America, and
the Ficus Elastica of Assam.
The Ceara is the only one of
these planted in Hawaii until with
in the past year.
In 1898, some seeds were obtained
by the Bureau of Agriculture and
distributed to various parties
throughout the Islands for plant
ing. In spite of the fact that no
care has ever been given them, and
varied as the conditions are in the
different localities, those which
have escaped being eaten by horses
and cattle have grown remarkably
well.
In one group planted by Hugh
Howell at Nahiku, Maui, the trees
measure 4S inches in girth at a
height of 3 feet from the ground
They have had one systematic tap
ping, yielding from to 8 OF. of dry
rubber. (They can be tapped twice
year.)
In the State of Ceara, Brazil, the
habitat of the species, the tree is
found growing at high elevations
on the dry, stony, barren slopes o.
the mountains, which has giver
rise to the idea that it will only dc
well under desert-like conditi ons
So general is this idea that tmany
thousand trees have been planted
in other countries in places 81
sterile that no other vegetation
could exist, with the natural con
sequence that little or no rubber
was obtained after they had strug
gled along to maturity.
However, when found growing
in the same localities with Hevea
as a long the upper Amazon, it i
found to yield about one-half a
much. The native tappers max
no distinction, tapping both kind
as they come to them, mixing tn
milk and coagulating it in larg
balls, known to the trade as "Par,
hams"
Where this tree grows alone it i
impossible to coagulate the milk il
this form for it congeals too quick
| ly, so is allowed to run down Tn
tree and coagulate in streaks as
runs. This is known as "scrap" o
"Manicoba," and is the only forr
in which the Manihot rubber reach
es the market unmixed with tina
from Hevea.
The objections to the cultivation
of the Ceara are:
1st. 1t is quite expensive to pre-
pare theseeds to insure generation
End. The tree has two barks
the inner one very soft and smooth
while the outer is hard and shaggy
and has to be stripped off like bircl
bark before tapping, thus addin
to the expense of collection.
3rd. AS compared with Heav
the yield is small.
The points in favor of it are:
1st. That it will yield in payin
much the same size, shape, an,

color as the mango, growing in
clusters of three. The seeds are as
large as walnuts and retain their
vitality but short time, making
them difficult to transport.
Eighty-fveper cent of the worlds
supply of rubber is obtained from
these two varieties. When in its
crude state, Para rubber is pure
and only needs washing to free it
from dirt and particles of bark
when it is ready to vulcanize.

End. Yielding while very young
the trees may be planted as closely
as 700 per acre.
3rd. They may be planted on
stony ground if other conditions
are favorable.
4th. The seeds retain their
vitality for more than year and
can be shipped anywhere.
5th. All the trees bear seed, the
first crop at two years of age. So
much for the variety already grown
to maturity, in Hawaii.
HEVEA BRAZILLIENSIS.
The most important and profit
able variety of all is the Hevea
Brazilliensis, the habitat of which
is from the mouth of the Amazon
to the slopes of the Andes, in Peru
1t is very tall tree with single
soft, smooth bark. The branches
are small and high up with leaves

Nicaragua and Panama. 1t is q

The branches are very large, grow
ing horizontal and hung wit
bright green leaves, eighteen inches
long as tough and thick as sole
leather.
The milk flows very freely, being
500 water. The rubber is blacl
and sticky with very little elasti
city, and owing to the great amour
Of resinous matter in it, the pric'
has always been about 409o les
than that of Para; but owing t.
the great increase in the use o
electrical machinery, the price ha
risen lately as the Castilloa is be
ing principally used for insulating
purposes requiring no elasticity.
1t comes to the market.in scrap
sheets, and balls. Some planters
color it white in coagulating b.

latex, adding much to its ap
pearance and overcoming the stick
iness somewhat, making it NOR
agreeable to handle. Its resinou
q qualities, however, cannot be over
come, SO that it will never bring {
price equal to that of Para.
The Castilloa is not likely Il
prove a success in Hawaii, as i
requires at least one hundred in
ches of rain during 6 or z months
and a dry season of at least
months. During the rains the tree
stores the milk in its bark under nj
pressure, making the dry season
