RUSSIAN SUGAR
CROP IS SHORT
Prinsen-G eerliss Thinks Germany
Not Suffering For Sugar
But Holland Is

II. G. Prinsen GCcrligs, writing to
the Louisiana Planter from Amsterdam
under date of September 20, says there
was only $500 tons of sugar in the
whole of Holland on August 81, and on
October ! not a pound in store.
In Germany there were 10000 tons
Of low grades at the end of July out of
the 100000 tons reserved for stock
feeding purposes. He estimates the
sugar consumption in Germany from
September, 1915, to August, 1916, at
$4,000 long tons.
"It Is not certain if all that sugar
has been consumed, but, since in the
last months, the articI" was extremely
scarce, it looks as if this really has
been the ease and that the new cam
paign opens with very restricted in
tial quantities.
Russian Crop One eighth Short
According to official Russian fig
ures, the area planted with beets in
Russia on the LIST of June, 1916
amounted to 66S,l47 hectares, against
75g.353 hectares at the same date OF
1915, thus showing a decrease of OIL,
2O6 hectares, or twelve per cent. Or
the LIST Of May of this year the esti
mate was still SOL 900 hectares, which
shows that disadvantageOus influences
have been very. active in reducing the
area to carry the sugar crop.
"W1 do not know whether after tina
date these influences have been stopped
or whether they have continued. but, a
any rate, q quantity of $4,000 heetare
will be considered as a conservative es
innate. Calculating the sugar produc
tiOn per hectares at the average on
during the last tG1 years, we come t,
a prOba Bile Russian sugar production
! for 1867 Of 1874 900 tons, on tn
raw sugar basis.
Russia Has No Surplus
During the former campaign 1871
| I46 tons of sugar were produced, with
stock left from the l9l4.l5 campaig
Of 203 1857 tons, so that the total quaI
titv of sugar available was then abou
| 2,0S1 900 tons Almost all of tina
amount has been either consumed !
the country itself or in the adjacen
countries of Finland and Persia, 3
that only very small quantity wi
pass over into the newly started eau
, paign. Suppose that to be 1850
tons, then we see for total amount O
sugar in Russia in 1916 II the relativ,
ly small quantity Of about l,709,O0
tons This is less than the consumT
ton in the wear before, so that it wi
be very difficult to keep Russia with il
full uuntum with nothing left for g,
pOrtation. save to the neutral Russia
markets already mentioned

LAHA|NALUNAB BOYS
ARE CANE GROWERS
School Sets Good Example In
Teaching Practical Agricu-
ture To Its Students

I.ahainaluna schools students in
agriculture are growing thirty-fOur
acres of cane for the crop of 1917 II
sugar prices are as high next year as
this the school will harvest one thou
sand dollars worth of sugar per acre.
Commenting on the practical instruc
tion in scientific farming that is being
given the boys at Lahainaluna, II. w
Kinney, superintendent of public in
strnction, recently said that if "smal
farming" is ever going to be made tC
pay the small farmers have got to get
the most out of the standard crops al
ready established in Hawaii.
This would mean that in the coffee
districts the boys must be taught every
thing on which instruction can b.
given about coffee; in the cane dis
tricS, cane; and where pineapples ar,
the main crop pineapple cultivation
should bt made the basis of the ina
ture study" teaching
The boy crop is one of the most i'm
portant products of Hawaii. 1t is 1
product that ought to be attached t.
the soil, because four-ff of the boy
when man grown must make their liv
ing from the soil.
Beat the Plantation
The boys at Iahainaluna school grew
more tons of cane per acre than tn,
best the plantation could do. at i
that sort of education that is going t,
be the salvation Of Hawaii" Mr.. Kin
ney said. "In Minnesota, Iowa and Ne
hraska the schools teach corn growing
dairyng and cattle feeding beeaus
these are the staple industries of tn
c0untry.'
Cane, pineappIes and coffee are tn
staple crops of Hawaii, the cash crops
the crops that the school boys will hav
to be able to produce if they renal
here and devote their lives to agricu
tural production. Hence these are tn
subjects on which instruction needs t
be given, and when the schools tax
these subjects and base their prac tica
curriculum on them small farming
will become as marked a success as /
has been a notable failure up to tn
| present time.
With the right sort of an educatio
the experience of the. Lahai naluna boy
ought to be. repeated all over Hawa
| with all crops.

MANUFAC1.UREROF I
MACHINERY TALKS -.
OF WATER SUPPLY
-
Tells Of Success st. Louis Has
Had In Clearing Mis- "
Sissippi Water
PROBLEM SOLVED AFTER
MANY AB0RTIVE EFFORTS
Other Cities Are Now Following
Methods Used BY Mis-
souri, Metropolis

Because he is interested in water
supply in general, and particularly be-
cause he has followed the discussion of,
improving the water system of Homo
'ulu, J. B. Dobyne, president of the
Champion Shoe Machinery Company Of
~. Louis, consented yesterday to tell o
representative of The Advertiser how
the big Missouri city had solved its
water problem. -
For many years, according to Mr..
Dobyne, St. Louis had been troubled
with the quality of its water. The
water itself was all right, being the
water from the Rocky Mountains, aud
considered the finest wa;er in the
| United States. But during its long
| travel of 5000 miles before the Mis-
souri, River emptied into the Missis-
sippi, the water became elOuded. Much
of the country through which il tray
eled was Of a rich alluvial nature, and
the sediment in a glass of water often
Was as much as an eighth of an inch.
City Spends Millions -''
1.-THE city spent millions of dollars
said Mr. Dobyne, Gin u vain attempt
we're built at great expense, sand filters
were installed, and, in fact, everything
known to water experts was done with
out success. The water still remained
cloudy.
"Then one day an obscure employee
Of the water department hit upon a
plan to precipitate the foreign sub
stance in the water. Experiments were
| ~ tha
new system of precipitation was in
stalled for the entire supply Of the
city. which numbers 7000 900 inhabi-
tants. The water now is clear and Is
recognized as the best water furnished
any municipality in the United States.
New Orleans. Memphis, and a number
of other cities have adopted the new
system.
System Works Well
~ do not know the details of the
process, but it is brought about by
placing certain amounts of harmless
chemicals in the, water. l am not so
much familiar with the process as with
the results. Mr.. L. +. Wall, one Of
the commissioners in charge of the
water department of st. Louis, has
been invited to scores of cities to ex-
plain the process.
II should like TO see Honolulu in
L vestigato this subject before Speeding
large sums of money on filtration
plants"
Mr.. Dobyne, in company with Mrs.
Dobyne, will spend the winter in HOMO
lulu and then make an extensive tour
of the Orient. The firm of which he
is the president is one of the largest in
the East, and the buildings cover an
area of severn blocks in st. Louis.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO. Oct. 26.-Resumption of export buying caused a late upturn in the price of wheat after the market had displayed much heayiness owing to rains in Argentine and to the tenn porary stoppage of foreign demand. Tho close was unsettled at the same as yesterdays finish 10 half cent higher. with December s1s0k to "a and May $I.S0A to A Corn lost 9sc to Ac net. oats hc to 9sc. and pro- visions 2ikc to 72c.
 IL was not until within fifteen min utes of the end of the trading that announcement was made of the re- viVal of export business in wheat In the apparent absence of any immedi- ate foreign outlet many weak holders became discouraged and threw hold d- ings overheard. unaware that relief was at hand.
 Estimates of the export sales of wheat ran as high as 1.100,0 900 bushels. In the absence of such a pronounced bullish development, sentiment chang ed quickly and today's losses entirely disappeared. The time before the final gong was so short, however. that yesterdays big setback was also to be overcome in a hurry.
 Increased country offerings proved too much of a burden for the corn market. Oats were upheld to some ex- tent by export inquiry.
 Provisions seemed to be under a good deal of selling pressure from packers.
