NEW RUGS WILL AD0RN
OFFICE OF FRANKLIN

Collector of Customs Malcolm A..
Franklin is going to have what he
calls "a real office" after a while. He
has just been granted special dis
pensation,' from the powers that be
in Washington to purchase two rugs
for his office floor, and he hopes at a
later date to secure better clock to
replace the timepiece at present adorn-
ing the wall. ~. 49,. ...
A recent government ruling forbids
navy and other government officials to
have rugs in their offices, but in Mr..
Franklin's case the treasury depart:
ment has been more reasonable. Mr..
Franklin hopes to have the floor decor
atoms in place some time today.
The rugs will be six and half feet
long by four and half feet wide, and
of the proper digniied sumptuousness
for a collectors office. They were
purchased from local firms. Mr.. Frank

PIONEER MAKES MORE Than DOUBLE
PROFITS AMASSED IN YEAR 1914

lSy is already greater than during the
whole of last grinding season The
juices have been very good from the
beginning, but how mucn they will be
affected by the hea"y rains and the
warm weather remains t. be seen.
Ny estimate 1t tAe present date is
81 800 tens. ..-
Crop 1917.
This crop will consist of about as
fellows: Plant cane. 1882 acres; long
ration, 1909 acres; nat. 225 acres: to-
tai, 1896 acres, besides, perhaps, a
small area of short ration. The crop
had an early start and looked very
promising up to the time OF the recent
storms and rains. However. if the
warm, calm weather, which we have
had so far after the storm continues,
the cane will soon recover. About
IA acres. of cane have been washed
out by the foods. from several fields.
Factory. =.
The work done in the factory dur
ing the past year leavec nothing to be
desired, | might say. By reason of
the good juices we were able to in
crease the daily output from 1902
tons in 1914 to 194.1S tons in 1915, and
to reduce our losses from 1913 to 9,6S
per 100 sucrose We further reduced
the consumption of fuel oil from 1915
barrels in 1914 to 1881 barrels in 1915.
Considerable Improvement has
been made in the factory with a view
to enable us to take off a crop more
quickly, or during those months where
the juices are at their best.
Unfortunately, part of the material
arrived very late, and some of the
machinery is not here yet, SO we will
not be able to get the full benefit from
these Improvements during the 1915
season. '' -.
Pumping. . H. :.
Our steam and electrically driven
pumps ran large part OF the year,
and our pumping expenses were con.
siderably higher than fer the previous
year. All pumps have been shut down
since October, however, and are under
going the usual necessary repairs.
Since June, 1915, weahave been u.s.
ing our new hospital, and it is certain.
ly a great satisfaction. We are now
able to take proper care of all needfnl
cases. ri: 81 49,. p:
"The labor conditions. have been
very satisfactory during the year, both
as to supply and efficiency Consid.
cradle improvement has been made in
the laborers' quarters; especially the
water supply for. domestic purposes
has been improved to d great extent.

the minister OF education aud for
siEn educators living In China who
have q knowledge Of the Chinese Ian

The annual expenditure for the
upkeep OF the army and navy Is re-
ported to be approximately 100000
900 gold, while the amount the CEN
trail government appropriates for ed
ucation ls only one-Aftieth Of that
sum.
The sentiment throughout China Is
that more money must be used for
education. With q proper system OF
taxation, China can realize sufficient
money to maintain schools, but edu-
oRtlonal experts are universally
agreed that adequate results cannot
be attained in Chinese schools IN
