SUGAR FUTURES.

Honolulu citizens returning from the
mainland are of the impression that
there will be no tinkering with the
sugar tariff at the next session of con-
gress One of them ventures the state
ment that "Nothing of the kind is
talked of over there and apparently
there is no expectation of a change.
People here do not seem to realize the
profits that are being made in the sugar
business in these Islands. We are now
going into the new beet crop and the
quotations are about what the sugar
will be next year. Looking back over
the records the price per ton of sugar
is about forty dollars above normal for
this season, more than the planters are
accustomed to receiving for their crop.
Suppose the price should drop cent
and half or cent and three-quarters
by January 1, we would even then re-
ceive normal prices. Beets for May
delivery are quoted at l7.9 parity 5.Sl.
In spite of this there is very little
movement in shares that are below par
All shares are about the same as when
sugar WAS selling at forty dollars a ton
less.
1t appears there is lack of apprecia-
ton; total absence of realization of
the profits in store for next year. Olaa

DEVELOPING POWER.

The Maui Agricultural Company has
started to develop its water power and
is now engaged in erecting an electric
plant for the Paia mill and plantation
which it is expected will develop at
least 1000 kilowatts of electricity This
is an important move on the part of
the company and is one which win be
watched with interest by many other
plantations where similar conditions
can be turned to advantage. It's upper
irrigating ditch has an abundant and
steady flow of considerable force. but
heretofore it has flowed down the noun
tain side unrcstrained. Recently il was
decided TO put in thirty-inch pipe to
conserve this power and this has been
done the water turning turbine wheel
for a hytroelectric plant and gener-
ator. One ! eauty of the scheme is that
the water is harnessed for horsepower,
yet not drop is wasted and the same
water is again used for irrigating, al
though its value is plus the electricity
developed Besides being utilized in
the Paia mill the current will also be
used for the pumping stations on the
plantation.

SHIPPERS WILL HAVE
TO PACK FINE FRUIT

the way in which fruit was shipped

tomologist Ehrhorn at yesterdays
meeting of the board of agriculture and
forestry.
"The Clark Farm Company gent

ceived in good shape. Then again there
we're fifty-seven boxes from Wahiawa,
and not one of the pineapples was
sound. They were heated. He wrote
to Mr.. Waldron about it, telling him
that there was a probability that flu
ture shipments would be condemned ON
arrival and not allowed to land; in
fact, such fruits would discourage all
shipments. -
Since his return he had called on
Mr.. Waidron, who had thanked him for
the information, and explained that
they were packed in the wet at Wa
hiawa. The grass-was wet and on the
voyage the pineapples had become
heated. There was nothing the matter
with the pineapples, but at the same
! time California was not going to take
any chances.
The same thing with the bananas,
said Mr.. Ehrhorn. He had told the ex-
porters here TO go over all the punches
and cut all that were not perfect, Then
there would be no trouble. All spoken
