HOW TO LUMBER KOA.

One of the most important matters
discussed was the report of Superin-
tendent Hosmer on the manner of lum-
boring the koa forests on Hawaii, and
the adoption by resolution offered by
the Forestry Committee, Messrs. Thurs
ton and Giffard, of the report. Mr..
Hosmer's report follows:

on the Island OF Maui, in response to
requests from the Wailuku Sugar Com
pany, DR. J. H. Raymond and Mr. w. J.
Coelho, of the Waikiki Improvement
Association. For the details of this
trip Mr.. Haugh's own report should be
consulted.
On Oahu similar applications have
been received from the Waianae Plan
tation Company, and from Mr.. III. M.
Won Holt, representing the Oahu Rail-
way & Land Company, while a meeting
of gentlemen representing the planta-
ton interests in the Eva Basin has
been called to discuss planting projects
in that district.
A considerable quantity OF Ceara
rubber seed has been sent out to va
rious persons throughout the Territory
who have agreed to plant the seed and
occasionally report upon it to this di-
vision. Recently the offer to distribute
sample lots of Ceara seed has been
made to the general public, so that
many more packages will probably be
sent out within the next week or two.
In this connection mention may be
made of a grove of 104 living Ceara
trees about s years old, which MIR.
Judd has found in the planted forest
of the Lihue plantation on Kauai. Pro-
Visional arrangements haN been MADE
with the Lihue Plantation Company.

the above request is that they may use
the report as an aid in securing OPP
tions on the koa on the lands in ques-
tion against the time when it is found
possible to undertake systematic lum-
bering.
To furnish adequately the information
requested entails careful examination
of each of the tracts enumerated, a
matter necessitating field work ex-
tending over number of weeks. In
discussing with the Committee on For
estry few days since, the advisability
of making such an examination it ap-
peared that in view of the present stat
us OF the koa industry in the Territory
a general statement might for the pres
emit be sufficient, leaving until nearer
the time of actual work the detailed
examination of each of the several
tracts. / have accordingly prepared
this report, which / submit with the
recommendation that copy be trans
mitted to the Hawaiian Mahogany
Lumber Company, Limited
The general policy of the Board. as
well as my own attitude in the matter,
is in favor of numbering the mature
trees of merchantable value in the Ha-
wailan forests, where ever such work
can be done without detriment to the
continued we'll being of the forest as
whole. In certain districts where
the primary value of the forest is from
its serving as a protection cover on
important watersheds it will probably
be found advisable to maintain the for
est intact.
But in districts where, except in re-
stricted localities, the question of
CT g
alton, as is the case in the greater
part of kona and much of Kau. there
is in my Judgment no good reason why
the forest, while beinp permanently
maintained, should not be so managed
as to serve as a continued source of
timber and other forest products. This
indeed is the essential object of for
estry-the perpetuation of the forest
through wise use.
From my acquaintance with Kona
and kau | believe that because of it's
general relation to the various indus
tries of those districts and to some ex-
tent on account of the influence which
the forest may exert on the local eli
mate it is to the advantage of the Ter
rltory that most of the area in these
districts now covered by the Koa belt
be kept permanently in forest. For
this reason / recommend that when
numbering is undertaken, either on gov
eminent or private lands, the work be
done in accordance with the methods
of practical forestry
BY the adoption and carrying out of
few simple rules the future welfare
OF the forest will be assured and these
can be put into effect without working
any appreciate hardship on the con-
tractor. The regulations which it NAV
be advisable to adopt NAV differ slight
iy for various tracts and can only be
stated after detailed examination of
the given area has been made on the
ground. AS has been stated above sneh
examinations can be made later when

month visited with the Rev. J. M. Lid

From September 21st to the oath, in
elusive. 1 was engaged with a trip to
Hanalei in company with Messrs. w. E.

to examine certain land within the
boundaries of the Halelea forest re-
serve on which Mr.. Rowell had ex-
pressed a desire to grow rubber. This
matter will form a subject of report
to the Committee on Forestry in the
near future On September 25th I re-
turned to Honolulu, where have since
been engaged with the preparation of
reports and attention to routine matters

TRIPS TO kauai AND HAWAII.
MY own time during this period has
been occupied with the two trips to
Kauai and Hawaii, respectively, and
with duties in connection with propos-
ed forest reserves and routine work of
the division.
On July 23rd Mr.. c. S. Judd was ap-
pointed special forest agent in the di-
vision of forestry, and on the Gath 1
went over with him to Lihue Kauai, to
start the work of making measurements
in the planted forests of the Lihue
plantation. which he is to carry on this
summer Returning to Honolulu on
July 90, I was in Honolulu for week.
Then on August I visited the districts
OF South Kohala and Hamakua on Ha-
wall, looking into forest problems on
the Kohala Mountain. on the land OF
Kaohe and in the section above the
Hamakua sugar plantations. Many of
those examinations were made in COM
pany with Mr. J. W. Pratt, Land Com
missioner. and Mr.. A. w. Carter, repre-
senting the interests of the Parker

who did the fighting on the ridge, 1t
needed their best efforts to keep the
fire from getting past them
"The occurrence of this fire is anoth-
or instance of brush fire which might
have resulted in serious Damage, If not
promptly checked. 1t was apparently
assumed by the men who started the
fires in the afternoon that the ire
would go out when it reached the rocky
bluffs at the foot of the main ridge, but
this proved not to be the case. The
wind becoming fresh and eddylng
about the spurs of the ridge caused
the fire to burn in unexpected places,
and there being no one on hand TO
watch it, it was soon burning well up
on the slope. 1t was when the fire
was at this point, at about $50 IN the
afternoon, that the men from the nur-
sery arrived. Freitas says that he saw
nothing of Doves men when he arriv-
ed at the fire.
.sIn my Judgment the evidence above
presented shows conclusively that this
fire resulted through the negligence of
the persons burning brush. Had the
men who started the 1ire remained to
watch it as they should it would have
been impossible for the fire to have
assumed the dimensions it had when
first reported to the office of this
Board. -

MY own time during a considerable
portion Of this period has been occu-
pied with a trip to the Island of Kauai
Leaving Honolulu on September 4th L
spent three days at Lihue, going over
with Mr. C. S. Judd, the figures Wnlch
he had been collecting during the pre-
ceding month, and discussing with MIN
plans for the completion of the fieid
work and the preparation of the report
resulting from his investigation. Dur
ing this time 1 also visited the two
Ceara rubber groves in the planted for
est at Lihue and in the Kaluahonu
Gu!ch at Koloa. and made further ar
rangements with the Lihue and Koloa
plantation companies. looking toward
the experiments in systematic tapping
of these trees, which are soon TO De
undertaken under the auspices of TINS
Board and the Hawaii Experiment Sta
ton.
From September 8th to the Goth was
engaged in making an examination OF
the Mauka portion of the Kona ana
