MENTAL EFFICIENCY

IOWA CITY-Iowa.-Sup men,
tally is the compensation granted a
class of forty little crirples under
treatment in the hospital at Univer-
sity of Iowa here, according to Miss
Jane Howarth, head of the hospital
school. Miss Howarth says that the
crippled children make up for their
physical deficiency by an unusual men
tai proficiency. .:..%. T..
Their progress since the establish
ment OF the school in November has
been amazing, says Miss Howarth
Mental tests made when the school
opened were repeated in, the Christ
mas holiday period: They proved that
several children had made full years
advancement. " ~
This remarkable progress in con
sidered to be due largely to the indie.
pendent reading the children do, for
they attend school only three hours
a day, or about half the time the nor
NAL child spends in the schoolroom.
Science, hygiene, and history, as
taught by storyboOks, take much of the

MURDEN TO HAVE
SUGAR REFINERY
consul General e. Carleton Baker,
- Mukden, Chinal.

Mukden, china).
A Japanese sugar refinery IS to be
established at Mukden. While sugar
cane is not adapted to the climate of
Manchuria, and there are no sugar
beets grown in this region, an effort
will be made to induce the Chinese to
grow the latter, and forward contracts
will he made by the refinery to insure
a sufficient quantity of beets for
sugar manufacture on a large scale.
The Manchuria Daily News of January
.25 quotes Mr.. Hashimoto of the South
Manchuria Sugar Refining Company,
as follows:
work on the factory will be started
in April, and we hope to complete it in
September and to begin manufacture
of sugar in October. The principal part
iof the machinery is to be ordered from
the railway workshops. Shahokou. and
the minor portion from the. Osaka
Iron Works. Their installation will be
set about as the building work pro-
gressess so that It may be completed
simultaneously with the completion of
the construction work. ~ =
Cultivation Of Beet TO be Fostered q
SAs regards, -the cultivation of beet,
two plans areo6n the f8pis. One is to
buy land and raise beet ON our own
account. The ofheY Is to enter into
contracts wirT me CnlKsse peasants
to- undertake the task. In the present
eircumstafefs the former plan is
thought father unwieldly, and it is
more likely that the latter scheme will
be adopted. In this respect the ar.
Engagements now in force for a like
factory at Hulan, North Manehuria,
are to be taken into consideration in
framing the contracts with the peas
ants. As to the eneoura cement of
the cultivation of beet, good word
from the landowners and people of
local influence would serve to much
good We have some experience in
Formosa on this point and stand, in, a
position to profit thereby. -.
"As regards seed beet, a German
species is held as the best However,
it being impossible to import it from
Germany direct, we intend to procure
German species from Southern Eu-
rope. As the Manchurian peasants
must be strangers to beet, we expect
that some difficulty will be encounter
ed in breaking them into the knack
of its cultivation. However, such diff
ficulty will be met with only in. the
first year The refining of sugar may
be taken up about January next year.
For raw material either Japanese or
Formosan sugar may be imported, as
the price may suit US better"
Some years ago a sugar refinery
was planned in Northern Manchuria.
A considerable amount of Chinese cap
ital was raised for the purpose, and
German machinery was purchased and
installed. Financial and other diff
eulties, however, were encountered.
and the operations proved unsuccess-
full. +. s..- sss..-..-

NEED OF TRANSFER
OFFICE Is FELT BY
! LOCAL STOCK BROKERS

Efforts are being made by the Homo
lulu Stock and Bond Exchange to Sc
cure a local transfer office here for
the stock of the Honolulu Oil Com
pany A meeting was held Thursday
and it was decided to request the
company to open such an office here.
There has been much complaint
among the local brokers as to the diff
ficulty of securing stock transfers of
Honolulu Oil shares especially follow
ing recent activities in the stock. 1t
was said there were occurring exas-
perating delays and nlixups that oc-
casioned still further delays as well
as expense in time and money to
straighten them cut. 1t is to avoid
these troubles that the transfer office
is asked. The only other solution
seems to be the establishment of a
clearing house" on the local exchange
which would have a supervision of all
transfers OF stocks passing between
the brokers 6E the exchange.

MUCH BUILDING
Waits WAR'SEND

Although high costs due 10 the war
and to high freight rates have pre-
vented the erection Of many buildings
in IICno uiu, particularly in the down
town districts, and at present there
appears LITTLE cnance CT building opera
tons going ahead on large scale
until peace is declared, there are a
considerable number OF plans on foot
only waiting until times are more
favorable.
These buildings, which are being
held IN allegiance. include office build
ipas, hotels, apartment houses and
theaters totalling in cost many hun.
dreds OF thousands of dollars, a num-
her OF which were being planned be
fore the war started two and a half
Years ago. In practically every case
plans are already drawn. w.
There are, however, three office
building sites which are causing more
than ordinary speculation. They are
Bishop square. owned by the Bishop
estate; the Mahuka site, owned by
Castle & Cooke, Hawaiian Electric
Company and the Wilcox interests, and
the Waikiki-makai corner of Bishop
and Merchant owned by Theo. H.
Davies & Company.
On all these three properties office
buildings are contemplated but which
company will begin construction first
is the big question.
That the Dawes company Will be-
gin operations first seems the idea
most in favor. its present business Is
scattered through several buildings
with its warehouses located close to
the new site As a result il is be-
lieyed that TO consolidate all the de-
partments under one roof. the COM
pany has more reason to build The
building, too, win be more for the
company's own accommodation and
not depending so much on the renting
of offices for its upkeep.
The buildings to be erected by
Castle & Cooke and Hawaiian Elec-
trio also come under the same
category to some extent, although at
both offices IL is said that they have
no intentions OF building for some
time because of leases and other mat
tiers which will have to be straighten-
ed out before moving.
Other buildings which may he
erected are enc for the First Ma
tional Bank across Merchant from
the Davies site, an office building by
the Mclnerny Brothers at the corner
OF King and Bishop and possibly a
new Masonic building at Hotel and
Alakea.

Brazil EXPECTS
Big SUGAR TRADE

consul General Alfred L. Moreau
Gottschalk, Rio de Janeiro, BRAZIL
A retrospective view of the sugar
market Of Rio de JaneriO during 1916
shows that in this article as in many
others. Brazil has profited by condi-
tions brought about by the European
war.
While the foreign markets. did not
order as heavily. perhaps, as some
people had expected, relatively large
quantities Of Brazilian sugars were
placed abroad and considerable
amount of money was made by grow.
ers here in exporting The market
prices within the country remained
low and therefore favorable for ex-
port transactions.
Exporters are looking forward to
increased shipments during 1917, al
though it would seem that this viii be
governed largely by the conditions of
the domestic markets, as, SO far as
may be judged. the actual production
Of the country has not been perceptib-
ly intensified nor Increased.
Lack q Proper Statistics
In this connection the Associacao
Commercial board of Trade) OF Rio
de Janeiro has once more pointed out
that the lack Of careful national crop
statistics, and of statistics OF domes-
tic manufacturer and production gen,
orally, makes il almost impossible in
Brazil today to show any foresight, or
to take any active measures to control
and direct z market, or to make il
profit by any exceptionally good for
eign conditions that may arise. The
only statistics that the republic APP
pears to have OF this sort are those
of the consume tax (internRl revenue
tax on manufacture, production and
consumptien1 and these figures are
not shown in their entirety by publica-
ticn.
The attempt made in November,
1916, to direct exports toward Argen-
tina was failure because of the low
prices prevailing in that market This,
however. did not discourage the grow
ers. and those of northern Brazil and
of Campcs remained firm in their pol
icy of careful releasings. so as TO
keep the market on their side and ex.
port as much as possible to Europe.
Russia Expected to Be An
Important Market
II is expected that during 1917 Rus.
STA win prove to he a valuable mar
ket. Il is expected that in 1917 that
country may require LEO 900 tons, or
%, S06.eAg hays. as bags of sugar fig
uEe in Brazil.
During 1916 the total entries of SUI
CARS into Rio de Jeneiro amounted to
LIS, e94 hays. Of which Use. SOC bags
were either consumed locally or ship.
