PRODUCTS OF HAWAII.
Forty Varieties of Bananas Cultivated.
Sisal Industry Important.

There are probably forty varieties of
bananas cultivated in Hawaii, but only
some half dozen of these have a COM
mercial value. Bananas sell In h San
Francisco market for from 81 to $3.50
per bunch. Good banana land may be
obtained in the vicinity Of Honolulu,
where the fruit must be grown by irri-
cation, or In the neighborhood of Hlo,
where the agricultural conditions are
exceptionally favorable, but where
transportation facilities are extremely
limited.
The sisaI industry Is becoming an inn
portant one. about 1000 acres having
already been planted. Experiments in
dicate that it can be successfully cultt-
waited from sea level UP to $500 feet,
and with a rainfall as high as sixty
inches. Hawaiian grown sisal is pro-
nounced by fibre experts to be equal
to that produced in Yucatan. The yield
amounts to from 900 to 1000 pounds per
acre per annum, valued, according to
length, strength and lustre, at from So
to Ss cents per pound f. o. b. Homo

LOCAL SECURITIES
DEMAND THE PAST WEEK
WAS SLIGHT.
Money Stringent with No Easement in
sight-Banks Have Little
to Loan.

According to the consensus of opin-
ion among the local brokers, the Sc
curity market locally remains as quiet
as ever. There was a slight demand
for securities this week, but this was
checked by the advent of the national
holiday. Quotations are practically
stationary and all sales are made with
a downward tendency. All transactions
recorded are of small denominations
and the buying power, of whatever
there is, is only of an investment ma
ture.
The local money market is as strin-
gent as II has been for the last year
with no easement in sight The banks
have only a limited supply of funds
n that Is taken by the commercial
and business enterprises of the viein-
ity. leaving very little to loan on good
collateral for stock and bond invest
ment purposes. Money is at its maxi
mum rate for boil call and time, while
in New York call money varies, the
time funds can be borrowed from 51a
to G per cent. This Is due to the gold
export movement there, otherwise
money would have been cheaper. BY
his comparison 1t car be seen how the
local money market is stiff. The

A Valuable Assemblage of Figures by

London Punch. it would take employment

The amount of plotting paper that could
be turned out of British paper mills, work
ing two shifts a week., during 20 years 8
months 3 weeks would be enough to soak

Britain would discard bob-nail boots in
favor of pumps, the manufacturers of the
latter would provide work for the whole
iron thus thrown aside would suffice to
make II armored cruisers two-thirds the
size of the Black Prince, with plates three
fourths of an inch thicker.
The quantity of hair exchanged annually
between lovers In the United Kingdom
would suffice to stuff 800 gross of hair pill

21,203 carboys.
II a man were TO walk on his hands from
London to Bournemouth, it would take him
17% longer than 1t would take a 10-pound
salmon to swim from V~arstanger Fjord, In
Norway, to Calcutta. via the SueZ CaSal.
The amount of porridge consumed In

THE COTTON MARKET

NEW YORK, July 6.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady at unchanged prices
to a decline of 3 points, which was CON
sidered rather better than due on the ca
bles. Offerings were light and after the
call the market advanced slightly on bull
support Of the near months, which sent
August up to a net gain of about s points.
July was neglected and later positions
sold only 2 or 8 points over the closing
figures of the previous day during the
early session. Trading was quiet and
buying by local professionals was restricted
by apprehension that the bulls were sup
porting August for the purpose Of making
a selling basis for later months.
The market closed steady, with prices
net unchanged to 4 points lower.

first man to trust himself in a balloon.
In October, 1873. One Of his great tri-
umphs was to hover over Paris at the

efforts by means of iiot air produced
by fire which he ca cried in the bal
loon itself and was alrIost as daring az

on pair of wings of his own con-
structiOn from the summit of the castle

permenter when picked up from the
ground with broken leg accounted
for the collapse Of his wings by ex-
claiming to the sympathetic courtiers
that he had made mistake in taking

Of the barnyard whose tlclination was

them from creatures with q heaven

pertinent would have been successful.
