The Exchange.

The Exchange.
In the exchange the Territory con-
veys the lower portion of South Olo.
hena, comprising 419 acres; two por.
tions of Kapaa, the lower portion com
| prising 635 acres, which more appropri-
ately belongs to the adjacent land of
Waipouli, and the other the upper poi.
tion, comprising 1917 acres, which more
appropriately belongs to the adjacent
| land of Kealia; also a tract of 104.5
acres at Waianae, on the Island of
Oahu. The total acreage of these four
tracts is 12S5.7 acres, of which 722
have previously been in cane and a
smaller area may be put in cane by the
installation of the necessary irrigation
works. On the other hand, there is
conveyed to the Territory all of the
upper portions of the lands of Waipouli
and North Olohena, comprising 2977
acres, practically all of which is good
homesteading land, and also about two
thirds of lot of 16.43 acres, valued
at ST., ,251.50, in Manoa Valley, required
for the College of Agriculture, the other
third of this lot being purchased by the
Territory out of moneys derived from
sales of other lands. This lot was put
in in order to even up the exchange.
| The General Result.
i "The result is that the Territory,
besides acquiring a much needed and
lcng desired addition to it's site for the
territorial college of agriculture, OBJ
tains an unbroken stretch of good
homesteading lands from the land of
Kealia to the land of Hanamaulu. EN-
braciDg the lands of Kapaa, Waipouli,
North and South OleheIa and Wailua,
making a combined area, with ample
water, of perhaps 5000 or 10000 acres
: while the sugar company pieces out a
portion of its cane lands by obtaining
other lands which by natural conforma-
tion should go with them.
