KOhala'S Crop Area
and Tonnage To
Be Larger This Year

,Kohala Sugar Company's 1917 crop
will be harvested from 1925 acres of
which 594 are plant cane and 1872
ration cane. The crop looks promising
and is estimated to yield 5000 tons Of
sugar.
The 1916 crop was harvested from
1920 acres and yielded 4l70 tons Of
sugar or 2.93 tons per acre. The 1918
crop will consist of 1875 acres Of which
4O5 are plant cane and 97l ration cane.
This crop is in good condition with the
cane well advanced and free from
weeds.
The area to be planted for Kohala 8
1919 crop is reported by George G.
Watt, manager, at about 400 acres with
large area of ratoops, about 1900
acres, total for the crop of 1900 acres,

ISMTARDED BY Winds

Reviewing the conditions that made
difficult, laborous and costly all opera
tions connected with the harvest Of the
1916 crop of the OlOwalu Company,
Alex. Valentine, manager, in his an
nual report, describes the damage from
storm and food suffered during the
year. ..' ~,
The 1917 crop, ne states will be har-
vested from 1862 acres consisting of
401a of plant cane, l73 of long ratoons
and l43 of short ratoons. The report
states: 'N. .,.' .-
1--WE commenced grinding this crop
on january 26, the late start being
caused by the remOdeling of the boil
ing house having just been completed.
about four acres Of cane were com
pletely washed out last year, and some
OF the fields were badly silted up and
washed in such a way that thorough ir-
rigatiOn was difficult in the dry months
of last summer.
Delay in harvesting the 1916 crop
and the extra labor of cleaning out the
lines delayed the start Of the short
ratoons somewhat later than usual The
Gang has tasseled more than usual this
year which will give the short ratOons
a shorter growing season.
1.-THE plant cane and long ratoons
are a good average crop, some of the
felds having been benefited by the mud
washed into them last year while
others were washed OFF.
''The constantly recurring high
winds of last summer and fall had a
retarding effect on the growth of the
cane; no sooner would the cane begin
to recover than the growing leaves
would be blown to sbrcds again.

Conditions attendant on the harvest
of Waimanalo Sugar Company's 1916
crop and the outlook for the 1917 and
1918 crops are described as follows by
George Chalmers, manager, in his an.
nual report; 49,. .#.. ..H.
"The acreage harvested for the 1916
crop was 1862 acres, and the total
amount of sugar 5l42.63 tons, making
an average Yield of 4.07 tons of sugar
per acre. This crop did somewhat bet
ter than was at first expected, mostly
owing TO the improvement in the quail
|ity Of the Juice after the first two
months grinding, also owing to q very
small percentage of the cane tasseliug,
which made considerable growth before
harvesting
"You will see by the accounts that
the cost Nof production has increased
considerable during the past year; this
is owing 10 the large bonus paid labor,
also to increased cost of fertilizers,
coal and other material needed to carry
on the plantation. However, I avn
pleased TO say, owing to abnormal high
prices received for sugar. there is still
a fair margin of profit left TO the stock
holders. 20. H.. .as'.. .

acres of plant cane, 729 acres of long
ratoOns, forty acres short ratoons and

are ,Prv busy with export business.
Philadelphia rcfners are practi-
cally at standstill as the strikers
after compromising went out again
and the consumer there is paying from
ten TO twenty cents per pound for
sugar. The whole trade was taken by
surprise by the turn of events. For
the past three days jobbers have been
bCsleging rehners for sugar and the
reRners have been compelled to scale
down all orders at least fifty per cent.
TEN days ago everybody figured
on a big reduction in refined sugar
prices. Grocers and wholesalers were
waiting for the anticipated readiust-

minimum when the Cuban situation
developed and now there is no saying
