while the new had been brought from
the colder parts of Formosa, which
more nearly correspond with local con-
dition in the higher attitudes.
The problems of the Lahaina dis
ease, which is stunning the growth of
that old cane variety, was said by
Agee to be caused, it is believed from
experiments, by the black alkali in
the soil 1t was hoped the introduce
ton of gypsum would counterfeit it. :
H. L. Lyon next told of how the
top rot affects the cane. He also
said that the, cane variety known as
II 333 should not be planted in large
quantities. as it would be sure to be
wiped out sooner or later by this rot
In speaking of fertilizers Agee said
that this year the planters should in
crease the quantity used, but that the
formulas would have to be changed,
due to the scarcity of some OF the in
gradients such as dried blood and pot.
ash.
The meeting then adjourned until
1880 this afternoon.
Continuing the discussion this after
noon of the experiment station report,
Agee said that he had found on the
fields where trash was left the mois-
ture was greatly increased and pre-
served, and the figures given showed
that the difference was about per
cent over those cleared off.
The managers of the various plan
tation next gave their opinions las to
whether the leaving out of potash
from the fertilizers due to its scarcity
had any detrimental effects on the
cane. Agee said that where an f..
creased ration of nitrogen was added
more good than harm had been done
and it was a question whether more
nitrogen and less potash should be
used. Some said that the sugar did
not have good appearance with the
potash omitted, but nearly all said the
nitrogen had benefited the
cane. All agreed that the only meth
cd To ascertain was by comparison.
Following, the reading OF the report,
the work of the experiment station
was praised by the managers.
The next report taken UP was the

If that petition had been to set Ire to the railroad or some other building it would have been signed just tht same. You can have any petition signed Hut the result Is that Sew ard is isolated so far as time Is c6n. cerned.
