Crop Estimate Is /
Reduced
Ten thousand I'u Tons
New Figures Further Reduced BY
Reason Of Heavy Rains Fol-
lowing Drought and Reducing
Sucrose Content

! April estimates of the Hawaiian
sugar crop considerably reduce the
preliminary shipping estimates
which were made by the plantation
managers last November and De-
eember. The expected crop is
56O,500 tons, including the home
refined sugar which will go for
local consumption.
First estimates for the 1913
crop were $4,000 tons, something
more than $4,000 tons less than the
1913 crop that was shipped and,
including refined, about $4,000
tons less than the total for 1917.
Now further reductions of 10000
tons are made.
Although the early estimates
were considered at the time to be
very conservative and inclined to
pessimism rather than to optimism,
such az been the weather conditions
that it has been found necessary to
further pare them down. Low sue
rose content is the reason general
ly given for reduction and this is
accounted for by the drought of
last year followed by abnormally
heavy winter rains.
Figured by dollars and cents the
8 new estimate means that the Ha-
waiian crop will realize about
million and q quarter less than was
at first expected. AS compared with
last years crop on the basis Of
