HAMAKUACROPS
NEED rain BADLY

That the drought which the Hama
kua district of Hawaii is now exper-
fencing is seriously affecting the
crops and unless rain comes very soon
the 1918 and 1919 crops will be dam
aged to the extent Of many thousands
of dollars, is the report which J. N.
s. Williams Of Theo. H. Davies & CO.
brought back with him from a two
weeks inspection Of that district.
There has been practically no
rain to speak Of for several months
and the new crops are showing the
want Of water" said Williams. "Un,
less It rains within q few weeks the
amount Of sugar from Hamakua in
1918 and 1919 will be materially re-
duced."
Williams says, however, that this
years crop is showing up much bet
ter than was expected. The sugar
content of the Juice is unusually high,
all the plantations, including Hama
kua Mill, Kukaiau. Kaiwiki Sugar Co,
and Laupahoehoe will probably run
above the estimate and with the new
equipment and improved methods the
sugar is of a high quality.
There is an enormous amount OF
sugar stored on Hawaii, Williams
says, due to the lack Of transportation.

CROPS CLOSE TO
FIRST ESTIMATE

That all Of the plantations for
which H. Hackfeld & Co. are agents
will run close to the estimate for this
years crop and in most cases beyond
them, Is NE belief of J. F. C. Hagens,
president Of the company. from. the
reports which he has received from
the managers.
The only two plantations which are
expected to fall below are Lihue and
Koloa on Kauai The estimate for
these was $500 tons while the output
will be between 300 and 1900 tons.
Rats are working considerable depre
dations there and many tons Of cane
are being ruined.
Pioneer on Kauai will finish grind
ing first The middle Of July is ex-
pected to see the last of the 1917
crop in the mill and the estimate Of
$4,000 will hold. Oahu on this island
is already 1900 tons over the estimate
OF $4,000.
