 The German cabinet today unaui- mously accepted them
 It is understood that in the event of the occupation of the Ruhr region of Germany, says a Reuters dispatch from Hythe. that no British troops will be employed. but there wiu he some cavalry and tanks to show the solidarity of the allies

 TOKYO, April 24-Because of Japanese activities in Siberia there is great interest here in the announcement that James F. Ab- bolt, commercial attache, and Major w. J. Davis, military att tache, of the American embassy at Tokio, have left for Chita to investigate conditions.
 Dscu.<ne it's desire to send an economic mission to America, the Chita government recently issued a statement saying that it needed a loan of $250,o00 900, the greater part of which would take the form of agricultural machine ry and railway supplies. The government would guarantee the loan with its royalties on gold, iron, timber and fishery conces- siona.
 The counsel of the American embassy, Edward Bell, is quoted in the newspapers as saying that the visit to Chita of Mir. Abbott and Major Davis was in no sense
 diplomatic or political.

Maui Agricultural
Company Affected by
Prolonged Drought

A net profit for 1920 of $3,643, 0S1.7S
is recorded in the annual report of the
Maui Agricultural Co, presented at
the annual meeting of the company
last week, according to the Star-Bul-
letin.
Officers of the company were re-
| elected as follows: II. A. Baldwin,
president; j. Warehouse, vice-presi-
dent; w. o. Smith, vice-president; c.
r. Hemenway, treasurer; John Guild,
secretary and D. B. Murdoch, auditor
The board of managers was also re-
elected composed of II. A. Baldwin,
J. Warehouse, w. o. Smith, f. G.
Atherton, c. r. Hemenway and John
Guild.
THE past year was one OF the worst
in history of this plantation" says the
report of H. A. Baldwin, says the re-
| report of II. A. Baldwin, manager of
the company, lin so far as drought and
lack of water for ~irrigating are con-
cerned. The total rainfall on the plan
ton for the year 1915 inches as
against SO inches for the year 1919,
which also was a year of excessive
drought. AS is to be expected when
one dry year follows another, the flow
of mountain water was extremely low,
and this was especially so between
March and Nocember, during which
time there was only Is inches of rain.
THE results for this crop were 90
140 ton of sugar-a thousand tons
more than expected when we COM
menced harvesting. The average ex-
traction obtained at the mill was 1905
per cent. The cane to sugar ratio
for the crop was 6.S to l.
For 1921 crop we have to harvest
1858 acres of plant ane and $3.50
acres of r%atoons, less about 125 acres
cut for seed, or a total of 4008 acres.
Our estimate for this + made be-
fore the December rains was $3.50
tons. A considerable portion of the
cane has not tasseled and is still
growing. / think we will obtain some
thing over $4,000 tons.
I'VE plan to plant this coming year
about 1900 acres and to ration be-
tween $500 and 5000 acres.
Improvements
Expenditures for improvements
during the last year were, as they
will be this year, confined largely to
increasing our water supply and bet
tering the living conditions of our en-
ployes.
THE first section of the Waloa
ditch has been completed except for
rs per cen of the lining. This will
soon be finished and will result in
the saving of a very considerable
amount of water now lost by seepage
in the old bitches. About rs per cent
of the excavation of the second sec
ton, which will deliver the water on
to the plantation, has been completed.
The Maui news. [volume] (Wailuku, Maui, H.I.) 1900-current, 1921-03-04

This work and the lining of this sec
ton should be finished in about a
year and a half.
1--WE have placed orders for a pump
ing plant and discharge pipe that will
deliver twelve million gallons daily to
an elevation of 730 feet directly above
the Paia mill. This installation should
be completed during the year and
when it is available will be amost
valuable safeguard against dry
weather.
During the past year we have
built a considerable number of new
camp houses of a better type than
those built formerly and we have put
up a model little theater at our main
camp, besides having partially fixed
up play grounds and athletic fields at
Hamakuapoko, Paia, and Keahua."
Treasurer's Report
"The net profit for the year." says
the report of c. r. Hemenway, treas
urer of the company, was $3,643, 081.-
70, after writing off a loss of $20S,615
on account of the sale of the Sugar
Factors stock, and a loss OF the sale
of Liberty bonds amounting to S22,-
993.75. During the yea $780,, 1S0.5S
was expended in permanent improve
ments and 81, 04S, 499. 80 divided among
the partners. The sum of 81, 100, 900
has been reserved to provide for the
payment of income taxes on the 1920
income, and a reserve of $4,000 has
also been created for the purchase of
stock in the California & Hawaiian
Sugar Refining Corporation which is
now being organized to take over the
assets and liabilities of Crockett re-
finery.
Investments
During 1920 the company added
to it's investments six shares of
stocks in the Mutual Telephone Co.,
at a cost of $50; 240 shares of the
stock of Haiku Fruit & Packing Co.
at a cost of $49S0; $50 shares of the
stock of Cation, Neill & Co., Ltd, at
a cost of $751; 1925 shares of the
stock OF the East Maui Irrigation Co.,
at a cost of 1922 500, and paid addi-
ton assessments of $27, 919.40 on &C
count of stock in the Hawaiian-Philip-
pine Co."

New Labor Secretary
Good Friend of Maui

j. A. Davis, new secretary of labor,
IS a friend of the Islands and especial
ly of Waikiki. He visited here some
three years ago and had planned
to come here again next year, prior
to his selection for a portfolio.
One of MI. Davis recollection of the
Islands on which he likes to dwell is
a luau that was held for him at the
Waikiki home of j. Garcia. In the
midst of the luau the electric current
failed, as vas a habit in those days,
and it was necessary to secure all the
oil lamps in the house and others from
automobiles outside .
In a letter to j. Garcia a few weeks
since Mr.. Davis spoke of his intention
to visit the Islands again in 1922 and
his desire to attend another luau on
Maui, and referred to the former ex-
perience.
Upon hearing of the selection of
Mr.. Davis for secretary of labor Mr..
Garcia wirelessed congratulations
which he followed up with a letter.
Troy Shumate, a member of the
Conway, Arkansas, basketball team,
sustained internal injuries in a game
and died from their effect.

Verne J. Burgess Does
Well as Distributor

V. ]. Burgess, Islands representa-
tive for S. F. Bowser & Co., Inc, has
recently been notified that his Office
was the distinction of rating number
25 in the list of those who made high
sales records during the past year.
This high standing is quite remark
able, inasmuch as he had to complete
against the entire sales force of the
United States, Canada and islands
possession of the United States.
Bowser pumps have long been con
sidered of standard quality, but their
popularity in Hawaii can only be at
tributed to the sales efforts of Bowser
& Co.'S local distributor.
