tons that would lead to Q greater out

ed that the Cartavio estate as we'll
as some Of the other estates on the
west coast of Peru would be capable
Of an average of eight short tons OF
sugar per acre by the introduction of
modern machinery and better methods
OF cane cultivation. - 49,. a.
In 1896 the average output of the
Cartayio estate was about IA short
tons Of sugar per acre; in 1916, it was
Sk short tons--a gain Of tons per
acre, which was due chiefly to i'm,
provements in cultivation and manu-
facture. This production places Car
tayio on basis with the high sugar
producing plantations in Hawaii. Mr..
Sedgwick estimates that under the
most intensive cultivation In the field,
and the most exhaustive process of
manufacture In the factory, Cartavio
win be capable Of an average output
OF sh short tons'p per acre.
The Cartayio Sugar Co. also grinds
cane for several neighboring estates.
The total output from the mill in
1855 was over $4,000 short tons.

STOP CUTTING BECAUSE
: OF SCARCITY OF WATER

Because Of the lack Of rain along
the Hamakra coast the Laupahoehoe
plantation has been forced to stop cut
ting cane as there is no water to sluice
the cane to the mil. Nearly all the
other plantations In this district have
railroad transportation and are not
hindered in this manner by the
drought. "a
There is plenty OF work to be done
by the laborers however, even If they
can't cut cane. according to J. N. S.
Williams, Of Theo. II. Davies e Co.,
and the principal work now Is clean
ing up those fields already cut and
preparing them for the new crops.
Williams also reports that the con
gestion OF sugar at Hilo has been
greatly lessened during the last two
weeks by the loading of Matson, Amer

DAYLIGHT Saving

Big Island plantations have been
setting the clock ahead this summer,
but the movement is not synchronized.
Each plantation advances the time to

but this is done without regard to the

has been agitated throughout the

noticeable degree by Industrial con-
Germs or CORPORATIONS.
News dispatches from Hilc. this
week telling of the setting ahead Of
the clock have met with the comment
by local sugar plantation agencies
that 1t was nothing new and has been
done for a number of years. The
clock Is set ahead during the grinding
season, then set back to standard
time when it ends, they believe.
: On Papaikou plantation the clock
marks three-quarters of an hour ahead
of standard time for the day. In fact

BOILING HOUSE
At HONOMU IS
TO Be ENLARGED

Enlargement Of the boiling house
capacity Of Honomu plantation by 20
per cent, which It Ia expected will
make It possible to shorten the grind
ing season by an entire month, will
be begun by the plantation manage
ment as soon as the grinding season
ends this summer.
According to the local agents, c.
Brewer & Company, Ltd, the improve
ments will cost In the neighborhood
of $4,000, and viii be. put In between
August and next December, before
the plantation makes Q start on the
1918 crop.
The capacity Of Honomu's boiling
house has not kept pace with the in
crease in the plantations crop, the
local agents say, and additions to its
battery Of boilers have been decided
on.
+ Advices to C. Brewer & Company,
Ltd, agents for Wailuku Sugar Com
pany, are that the plantation closed
its grinding season on June 20, with
an output of 1885 tons.
This Is not the total crop for the
season. as the Iow-grade has to be
worked up yet. With this included, It
is expected the grand total will be
close to 1920 tons. News Of the
close Of grinding was contained In q
three-line letter from Manager H. B.
Penhallow.
Other plantations for which c.
Brewer. & Company are agents are
getting we'll along toward the end Of
the crop. Onomea will about hold out
on the January estimate Of 10000 tons
the local agents say, and Honomu will
do even better, with 500 tons above
the estimate made at the beginning
of the year.
Pepeekeo will be short about 1000
tons Of the January estimate. No par
ticular reason is assigned for it, the
agents say. 1872. .,...-. = ..,

MATSON SHIPPING
SUGAR STEADILY.

Approximate estimates made today
by the shipping department OF Castle
& Cooke, are that half the sugar which
the Matson Navigation Company is
under contract to carry to California
this year has been shipped.
Unless the government takes over
the Maui and Matsonia in the next 60
days, the tonnage will be entirely
cleaned up by the end Of September,
the local Matson agency believes.
The amounts contracted for by the
Matson line include 275, 900 tons for
shipment to the Crockett Refinery,
5000 tons to the Western Refinery,
in South San Francisco, and all the
refined sugar produced In the terri
tory, between $4,000 and $4,000 tons
this year, the refined output of Homo
lulu Plantation, on this island
Shipment of tie 1917 crop has been
made easier fer the Matson Line be-
cause of the ex-Gernan steamer, the
company chaftering three, the Stats
sekretar Kraetke, Glass and Gouver-
neur Jaeschke, from the q. 8. Shipping
Board to carry full cargoes to San
Francisco from this port and Hilo. In
this way the vessels have made money
for the government by taking fun car
goes up to the coast instead Of going
empty, and have helped the Matson
Line by reducing the congestion Of
sugar here and at Hilo.
The Kraetke took 1000 tons to San
Francisco, the Elsass is loading TOO
tons here and will steam for Hilo Tues
day to top off" with 1900 more, and
the Gouverneur Jaeschke will leave
here July 25 for San Francisco via
Hilo. She will take 1000 tons, loading
