WASHINGTON, D. c., May 1.--Ofi-
cials of the Department of Agriculture
are greatly interested in reports re-
ceived from Hawaii to the effect that
one of the big sugar companies has
adopted as a regular field practise the
system of destroying weeds by use
of an arsenic poison spray. instead of
by hoeing. Experts who have con:
Quoted experiments on Hawaii su-
gar lands estimate that by the spray.
ing method saving can be made in
labor of SIS to $50 per acre per an
mum. %> s.& .
The latest developments along this
line in Hawaii are discussed in a let
ter received from H. P. Agee, direc-
tor of the experiment station staff, of
the Hawaiian Sugar Planters Asso-
citation. Before going to Hawaii, Prof.
Agee cooperated with the department
in experiments on Louisiana sugar
land. . Z <s<
The value of this method in Hawaii
is very great because OF the fact that,
like most tropical regions, the islands
are subject to torrential rains. The
less the surface of sugar and other
lands are disturbed by cultivation the
less chance there is that heavy rains
will wash off the top soil or in1me.

A few years ago the Department Of
Agriculture issued bulletin dealing
with the. weed factor in the cultiya.
tion of corn, following a series of ex.
periments extending over several
years, which apparently established
the principle that it is the removal OF
the weeds rather than the cultivation
proper that contributes most to the
production of the corn crop. A series
