Philippine Plantations Owned in

Cane.

J. L. Schubert, of Hilo, has written
! TO friends in Honolulu seeking to inter
est capital here in Philippine lands.
Regarding the chances for investors
there, he says:
Dear SRI am writing the follow

from the manager of our plantation in
the Philippines, which shows that Con
account Of the very low prices which
We have been receiving for hemp the
prospect Of dividends is rather remote
to say the least. Present prices are
about fftyfve per cent. less than were
paid in 1904 when we first went into
the business of raising hemp. Three
or four plantations joining ours are
in the same unsatisfactory shape. AS
these lands are especially suitable for
cane. it occurs to me that they could
be operated to splendid advantage I'M

earn good dividends by raising sugar
thereon. Nearly every native has a
few hills Of cane which grows well,
and as far as | know, is not subject
to borers or other drawbacks.
This land is all held under twenty
FIVE years lease, with the option of a
similar further extension at the sx-
piration of the first twenty-five years.
The lease was obtained from the Phil
ippine government at the rate of ten
cents L. 5. coin per acre per year.
\ good supply of labor is available

paid in trade on which a handsome
profit is realized.
This land lies in a valley with a
beach front of ten miles and running
back to the mountains about the same
distance. The soil is deep rich sandy
loan which has been washed down from
the mountains for centuries past.
