when Cane IS Ripest

From records kept by the plantations
during the last ten years it is plainly,
evident that the period from February
to'April / covers the time during
which the cane is at its best condition
of ripeness. At this season it takes
fewer tons Of cane to make ton of
sugar, and both purity and sucrose are
at their highest. On some plantations
and in some years the period of maxi
mum ripeness may extend another
thirty or sixty. days, but almost every
where the two months from February
to May are the period when the cane
is at its very best. a.. s.,i ...r,
Hence there should be very little
floating labor in Hawaii, because there
is abundant work for all. The planters
are all laying plans to put their prop.
critics in such fine state of physical
development that the lion 8 share of
the crop can, be harvested during this
period. 1t will be a. number of years
before this is accomplished, but all are
moving in that direction, Ten thous-
and more laborers than. are now avail
able could find steady work from now

iUtPHUR|C ACID NAY
CURE LAHANA DISEASE

That alkali lands may be reclaimed
by treatment with sulphuric acid is
pointed to very strongly by experiments
of the University of California.
These new hopes of alkali.reclama-
tion are based on investigations carried
out in pot experiments in the green
house in Berkeley, and in field expert
ments in small plots at Kearney Park
near Fresno. The field experiments,
used to confirm the pot experiments, are
even more striking in their results. a,
The action of the sulphuric .agid is
three-folds it entirely neutralizes so
diumJ carbonate, the corrosive fblack
aIliali = salt; il shriBks the jelly.like,
easily-swelled materials in the soil,
known as H,colloiasJy which are put in
to very badly diffused and swollen
condition by the washing out. of salt by
the winter rains or by irrigation; it sets
free some chlorine, from the common
salt, therefore changing all alkai that
does remain into sodium sulphRte.
Sodium su,phate is the least harmful
of the three salts common in alkali
land. Plants can stand very much more
of that salt than of the others, and be
- sodium sulphate is less soluble
than the others, and besides, sodium
sulphate is less, soluble than, the other
salts. Not. only sodium sulphate, but
also calcium sulPhate, magnesium sui
phate, and other metallic sulphates are
, formed, and these have been found to
have the power to prevent the poisonous
action of sodium, sulphate and of Other
salts. " .l... ..
1 Therefore, through changing the cor
rpsiye "blaek alkali" salt into sodium
sulphate, driving off chlorine from thu
common salt, and making that into so
dunn, sulphate, by shrinking the "eoI
lo,dsv Cor jelly-like, easily swelled ma
terials), and by producing calcium an
magnesium sulphates, the soil can b.
changed into one containing only on
kind of, salt, and by the shrinkage o
I the colloids can DO made much NOR
peTvious to air, and therefore NOR
favorable place for the necessary bac
terra and fungi to live sin.
| The immediate application of thi
practise would be to cure the condition
which are supposed to cause I.ahain
disease of cane. Manager G. Y. Rentol
has Experimental with sulphuFic acid u

end of 1916 will have something to tel

WHY IS OLAA STOCK
WORTHMORE MONEY
Efficiency In Production With
High Prices Has Carried Plant
alton To Success

One reason why olaa stock yalues
have jumped during the last twelve
months is because of the steady ma
ter 81 improvement in the physical con,
dition OF the plantation. "a ,.s !, t.,ss
The company controls an area, of 49,
600 acres, of which third, TIA acres,
is cane land, and of this 1910 acres is
owned, the balance being leased. Z 1t

Olaa has, steadily increased "toEs, Of

and has also al, anced in "total IecOv-
eryD and factory eliicirncyp until it
now stands, ninth, in the list of Ha
Waiian, sugar, producers. 1t IS the reaIi;
ration. of, this fact that olaa has per
maneptly entered the ra1ksr Of the
leaders that has caused a change OF
pubic sentiment as to the actual value
of. that plantation. W, ~ 49,. g..
Performances Counts Most - a..
"Pcrformaneep would have carried
the value of 0laa stocks to par inevita
bly, and irrespective of all other con
siderations. The high selling, prices re
ceived for sugar since August, 1914
has brought immediate realization Of
the uecsssfpl issue which was inevita
lie but which at low prices would moi
have come for several years. wv. ~,
Small volumes of 0laa stocks ar'
widely held. Nevertheless the public
who speculate through buying and s2ll
ing do not realize that by far tn,

Faith and Works. ~ 'S'rc
Olaa shares haze increased in valu
because the actual and pot"rtia' lu
is there. 'Tons per acre." "factor.
efficiency and Total recovery witt
costs per ton,'' are what fix the &C
'tual market value, of all plantation
stocks. s. Another year of high price
for raw sugar will make Olaa stool
worth its face value irrespective o
whether, the directors vote dividend
on the common stocks or use the profit
for bond redemption Or for bctterm Mt
and improvements.
Spectators will be carried along b
the tide, but the chief gamers are tn
men WHO paid $40 share for thei
stock and have stuck by their, propos
tion from the very BEGINNING becgus
they had the, supreme faith that move
mountains or creates new industries.

In the course of the rotting process
enormous volumes Of carbonic acid pas
are set free in the soil. II is now
known that this gas is produced by soil
bacteria. because many investigators
have PRAYED by experiment that earth

carbon dioxide. 1t has also been proved
" scientific experiment that certain
groups Of soil Bacteria produce organic
materials direct from inorganic, using
the earbonic acid gas in the soil as
their source of energy. +
Soil Becomes Laboratory
When the gas is superabundant' in
the sol, rs it is during the decay of

COUNTING THE COST
AFTER THE STORM
u Might Have Been Worse Is
Verdict On All
Plantations

o. Damages from the late storm appear
to have been confined almost entirely
TO tho central Maui plantations and
Ka6leku. There was not a quarter as
much rain on Kauai as on Maui, and
tho only loss was the lowering Of the
Juice. The worst effect of the storm In
that part Of the group was all at sea.
The Oahu plantations report more gain
than, loss from the heavy soaking.
The raiu stopped the harvest but all
mills are now again grinding.
From Maui, III. Hackfeld & Company
report the loss at Pioneer, practically
nothing, A scow loaded with sugar was
swamped and 1866 bags of the sweet
stun got wetting. A few bags Of feed
we're soaked in one Of the warehouses.
Total storm damages at Lahaina will
not foot up over thousand dollars,
they state.
Central Maui hit Hardest
G. Brewer & Company have little
further information, to give as to tho
plantation losses, at Waikiki. George
| III. Robertson said yesterday. that hfty
thousand dollars win cover Il. The re-
nairs TO. buildings, fumes and bridges
will not cost 100000, at the outside.
Tho biggest loss is the invisible loss,
from broken zane which, will stay N
the fields at harvest. and the extra eK-
, pense of hocing and cleaning out the
water courses. The extra labor bill for
again putting the fields in condition
where they can be irrigated ~ the
chief expense resulting FROM the storm
, as, far as Wsiluku Sugar Company is
: concerned, he said.
Invisible Losses Largest
/ Alexander 4 Baldwin place the total
II. G. & 81 Company damage bill at not
y to exceed $200,0a0. Twenty-Five per
scent of this will cover the cost Of re-
lpaiys, while $l50,00O, Mt the Ontside,
will cover the invisible losses. whica
are of the same nature as at Wailukil.
The full fury of the, storm swept kula.
and the Kihei cane fields. Maui Agri.
cultural and the Haiku section lost
very little, In Knla the gale was al.
most a hurricane and the smRll farmers
were hit good deal harder than their
bigger ueighbors on the lowlands. Trees
were blown down, buildings unroofed

In this connection il is well to re-
member that nitric acid Is the base Of
most of the modern high explosives
and If the United States Is to be fully
prepared for war the manufacture Of
nitric acid is a necessary step toward
full preparedness. ,.t....
A New York despatch Of. December

by extracting nitrogen from, the air
will be put on the market shortly, ac-
cording to statement today by James
b. Duke, one of the officers of the com
pany owning the process. 't'.a".a
''This announcement follows close
upon, recommendation of Brigadier-
General William CroEier, chief Of ord
nance Of the United States army, who
