Transpol tation," by John Hind, was
the first report read and this dwelt
principally with the caterpiller tract
or as a method of hauling the cane
either to the mill or to the fumes.
Manager Moir of Onomea said that
he uses sleds for the long hauls to
the fumes and where the hill sides
are excessively steep. cables run by
gasoline were employed. The engines
are on carts and moved about as de-
sired.
James Glib of Honolulu plantation
said that portable tracks are used sat
'isfactoriiy. From the high lands
fumes carry the cane to the cars but
as water had to be pumped up, it was
very expensive.
The best material for fumes was
next discussed and Geo. Gibb in.
formed the members that cedar wood
seemed better than any other as its
presents slippery surface. The
question of whether iron fumes, which
are used on some plantations, are the
most durable vas touched upon, but
the opinion seemed divided.
That caterpiller tractors have q
great future for hauling cane, particu-
larly over rough, slippery and muddy
country, is the opinion Of F. A. Alex
ander of McBryde, where they are used
to haul the hoBIesteader's cane.
The report by r. S. Norris Of the
experiment station on mil Data for

and much valuable knowledge. Nor.
ris opens his report by saying that the
cane this year was Of the poorest
quality in sugar content and purity
that has been ground during the past
nine years, which he thinks is due to
the adverse condition of the weather.
The extraction, however, he says, was
in about the same proportion as for the
previous season.
Norris also says that the average
moisture of the bagasse has decreased
this year an days it to better work Of
the mills. This, it is said, tends to
make better fuel.
Warning to Sugar Boilers
A warning to the sugar boilers is
sounded by Norris in regard to de-
sire to increase the size of the crys-
tails. He says:
'Thcre may be some tendency dur.
ing the coming season, in the great
effort that will be put forth to make

a density as heretofore II would be
