A HAWAIIAN RICE MAN
LOOKING OVER LOSUIIANA

The Crowley Ga.) Signal says:
| II. e. Walker. owner of the largest
rice mill in the Hawaiian Islands,
prominently identified with the Ha-
| waiian rice industry, and representa-
tive in Honolulu of the American Rice
Brokerage Company, was here last
week looking over the American rice
situation, having also made a stop at
Houston TO investigate conditions in
Texas. Mr.. Walker states that he finds
many differences between the Ameri-
can and the Hawaiian rice mills, the
former being much finer so far as ma
chnery is concerned, and the milling
system much more complex than the
latter, this being due to the fact that
American trade wishes its rices high
ly polished. with a CLASSY finish, while
the Hawaiian trade, which is made up
largely OF 10000 Japanese. prefer the
duh or natural finish. OF the AZ rice
mills of various sizes In the Hawaiian
Islands, MIR. Walker owns the largest.
and he is the only white man operat-
ing a rice mill in the islands. all the
others being owned by the Japanese or
Chinese. Practically all of these mills
have some OF the American machinery
which is used in the Louisiana and
Texas rice mills. Mr.. Walker stated
that instead of receiving 40 cents per
barrel for milling on toll. the Hawaiian
rice millers receive only 10 cents per
hundred pounds, and must guarantee a
yield of &C pounds of clean rice out
of 100 pounds of rough, or equal to
yield OF 106 pounds on basis of our
Louisiana Texas standard OF rough
rice measurement. On,the majority of
The Hawaiian gazette., 1906-08-28

the Hawaiian rice farms, two crops of
rice are harvested each year. one in
June or July, and the other in Novem-
ber, while upon some of the more
fertile lands five crops are raised in "a
months, the islands producing annually
about 100000 bags of their own rice,
and consuming much greater guam
tity of imported rice, which now all
comes from Japan. Mr.. Walkers prin-
cipal purpose in visiting the Louisiana
Texas rice belt is to endeavor to make
arrangements to import American
grown Japan rices, having handled the
American product last season when the
prices were low. He thinks that II the
range of values for the new crop is
not too high, he should be able to use
a considerable quantity OF American
rice. importing 1t from this section In
the brown, 1. e., with the hulls rs-
moved, and then finish milling 1t in his
own mill. He also thinks there is
good market on the islands for our rice
bran, for which the Louisiana-Texas
mills receive an average price of about
80 per ton at the mills. while 1t Is
worth $25 per ton at Hawaiian mills.
He states that the, principal obstacle
in the way of liberal trading on the
Hawaiian Islands in American rice and
it's by-products is the present high rate
of freight. and that by making liberal
through rates the Southern Pacific
company could enable the Louisiana
Texas rice interests to work up big
trade with Honolulu. Mr.. Walker left
today for New Orleans, where he Will
spend several days sightseeing, and
win return to Honolulu via Chicago
and Denver ...E..| -

TENDERLY CARED FOR.

w. IL. avery, general manager in this
city for the Toyo Kisen Kaisha, who
returned yesterday from Japan on the
liner Hongkong Maru, owes to Califor-
mia oil an experience common to pretty
girls, but one that rarely falls to the
lot of any mere man.
He left here on the steamer Doric. He
had been ordered TO Japan to give his
principals the benefit of his advice in
the letting of a big fuel oil contract.
Passengers with him on the Doric were
Henry J. Crocker, w. L. Stewart and
w. s. Porter, all representing large
California oil interests and each deter
mined to secure the contract.
The people ON the Doric say that only
when asleep was Avery alone. At last
two of the three oil men were in attend
ance upon him constantly. They did not
talk oil all the time.
If Avery seemed uneasy in his steam
er chair he had the choice Of three
other rattan lounging devices. If he
shivered, or seemed to, three steamer
rugs were draped carefully across his
knees.
For the alleviation of his thirst there
were three separate and distinct pre-
scriptions, and, as for smoking, Avery
never knew before what really fine
cigars were made in Havana.
