SHIPPING Or FRUIT
FROM THESE ISLANDS
Honolulu, July %, 1907.


Editor ADVERTISE: Referring to
communication from Mr.. c. w. Brash
in the Advertiser This station is not
in the real estate business. There are,
unfortunately, problems in connection
with shipping fresh pineappies to the
mainland markets. Losses have been
in some instances abnormally high
above ninety per cent. We are trying
to find out how to pack the fruit, how
to treat it previous to shipment and
how to ship to get the fruit to San
Francisco and Chicago with minimum
| losses.
The development of a mainland
market for fresh Hawaiian fruits is
only incidental from a scientific stand
point, but that is the aim and object
of those who produce these fruits.
At a conservative estimate there will |
be fifty thousand tons of fresh pine
apples available for shipment from Ha- |
waiian ports within five years in adj
dition to about twenty Thousand tons
of canned fruit. The prices now re-
allied for fresh fruit in the mainland
markets are about double the prices
paid by the Gamers locally, but there
is the uncertainty of being able to get
the fruit to the market in salable con-
dition. What we are trying to do is
to render certain these uncertainties.
In our shipping experiments last
year we were able to reduce losses
fifteen per cent. Using our last year s
results as basis we are going to q
Knock off another fifteen per cent this =
'ear, if possible, and L think we can
10 it.
The same reasoning applies to the
trade in bananas, papayas.
vocados and mangoes. AS long as
he producers are able to snip these
rats without loss, there are no legi-
innate problems for this station in
onnection with the shipping trade.
ut there have been very severe losses.
we can determine the cause of losses
nd remedies for them, it is certainly
legitimate field for governmental in II
Yours truly,
JARED G. SMITH.

SAN FRANCISCO SENTIMENT.

Fred L. Waldron received a letter
from a prominent business man of San
Francisco yesterday containing the fol-
lowing:
Don't lose faith in old San Fran
cisco. If I did not think it would be
a better town than ever 1 should quit
right now. Just now we have an ex-
cellent government by convicts under
suspended sentence If we can elect
another bunch in November that will
have the fear of the pen in their hearts
think things viii progress rapidly to-
wards rehabilitating the city physical
~ and morally.

Investigate Hawaiian
Conditions.

Prof. Walter w. Froggatt, Govern
ment entomologist of New South Wales
arrived in the Manuka to remain in
Hawaii for several weeks. Prof. Frog
gait is on an official trip around the
world representing the several states
of Australia in the interests of con-
trolling the insect pests of that coun-
try and is giving particular attention
to fruit-fies and insects affecting live
stock.
At a conference of the Government
entomologists of the Australian states
held in Sydney last August resolu-
ton was passed that Prof. Froggatt
visit Hawaii and mainland, United
States, to study insect pests and their
control. The ministers of the several
Australian states held a conference at
Brisbane in June of this year and of
fcialIy appointed Prof. Froggatt their
representative not only to visit Ha-
.waii and the United States generally, |
but also to include the West Indies,
Europe and India. The trip viii oc-
cupy many months and the expenses
will be borne equally by Victoria,
South Australia, Queensland and New
South Wales. The trip win be a very
important one to the agricultural in
terests of Australia.
Prof. Froggatt has written many au- :
horitative reports on economic en-
omology and has lately published an
important book on .'The Insects of
australia. - He viii visit the various
institutions in Honolulu !.
nd include in his report the work of :
he local experts. Yesterday was spent

ion and next week Prof. Froggatt, !
company with Prof. D. L. Van Dine, =
Ill go to some of the other islands ="
, study our range conditions and the :"
eal insects injurious to live stock.
his is a subject likewise of great in
rest to Hawaiian stock breeders and
lie to which Prof. Van Dine is giving
lrticular attention. The local melon I
? belongs to the general group of
utilities that Prof. Froggatt is in
and any results obtained
Ill be of great interest to Hawaii.

TAM PONG AND THE
EDMONDS BOY CASE

Editor Advertiser: Will Won kindly
allow me space to make explanations
| as to the case of the ''Edmonds bow
who burned my straw stack, thereby
greatly endangering life and property.
Even though the father cried and oh
tanned fool pardon for this notorious
young urchin, the grand jury may look
into the matter a little later on. The
boy is between eight and nine years
old, according to custom house records
when the Edmonds arrived in this
city.
Edmonds ST., boasts of having acted
the part of stool-pigeon and spy on
his neighbors. Nobody of character
would do this Also when the fire was
raging he refused water connection
to Capt. Ingraham and squad of U.
5. soldiers from Camp Mckinley who
CALAMITY came to the rescue. Edmonds
was quickly brushed aside and water
connections made. The boy is bad.
uses filthy and profane language.
The sheriff department knows that
I applied for police protection from
high-handed acts of the Edmonds gang.
such as destroying growing crops, pull |
ing up water gates, damaging fume
and other devilish acts. As I have NOT |
been protected by the district court.
there is another try coming.
Very respectfully,
TAM PONG.
