Mr. Miller, assistant vice president of the Hawaiian Suger Planters Association, describes Hawaii's largest industry, sugar production. He shows photos of the process, from planting, cultivation, harvesting, and finally processing at the C & H Refinery in Crockett, California. 
A film details the work of the genetic laboratory in Hawaii that cross-breeds canes from countries around the world in order to create new hybrids that will be more resistant to disease and insect pests and produce a higher yield of sugar.

Life on the Plantation - in an Era When Cane Was King
The Big Island's Hilo Coast was the classic plantation community with brawny mills, tidy camps and broad fields of billowing green. A boy could ride the flumes, watch the Sunday cockfights or spend his pennies at the general store. And a man could make an honest living in the green rows of cane or the brawny, bustling sugar mills. Scotch Kurisu was born into this world and never left, working his way from field hand to a position on the board of directors. Sugar Town is his own story -- a broad overview peppered with fascinating anecdotes and more than 70 archival photos. Its a story that helps preserve the spirit of a bygone era.

thread_title: SUGAR TOWN

message: The conventional name of this county appears to be "Hawaii County" not "Hawaii County".  The official website , the US Census Bureau , and the major media listed in the article (the Hawaii Tribune-Herald  and West Hawaii Today ) all do not use the okina.  When one googles "Hawai'i County" (57,300 hits ),  google asks if you actually meant "Hawaii County" (322,000 hits ). As a result of this evidence, I've removed the okina from the intro paragraph etc.Erudy 16:36, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Odd as it seems to me, many Hawaii articles use okinas.  I've reverted your changes, simply because it seems to be more in line for similar articles; you'd do better to bring this up at the Hawaii Wikiproject.  Nyttend 17:12, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, we've been discussing this on the WikiProject page. (including keeping the okina out of titles of articles) However, not a ton of people have commented so far. --Ali'i 15:15, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Removing okinas

message: What is the nature of Hawaii County's administrative districts?  Looking up Kona District I find that "Kona is the name of a moku or district on the island of Hawai‘i" and that "the moku of Kona is divided into North Kona District (Kona ‘Akau) and South Kona District (Kona Hema)."  Then I come to the Hawaii County page and find identification of the districts but no explanation of what they are.  I view the Maui County and State of Hawaii pages and find, respectively, no counterpart nor statewide convention on dividing counties.  So is the moku an area represented by a county commissioner or councilor or similar figure?  Or does it have a more (or less) substantial purpose?

replies: text: You could try looking it up in the state legal code, although I found it rather more difficult to get through than other states'; hopefully if you try that way you'll be able to get what you need faster than I could.  Nyttend (talk) 02:49, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: County administrative districts

message: Some charts were attempted to be added recently.
These might provide some interesting information, but need to be added without disrupting the layout of the article, using full citations, etc. This is about the county, not the island (although they are "coterminous" or whatever) so might be the place for this info. Need to make sure they are copyright free, census data should be, I think?  Ah, one of the links was to "mapzones" which is evidently not. The census data would need to be put into copyright-free charts.

replies: text: See here; I don't like their removal, but enough other people seem to oppose their inclusion that it's too late to keep these useful images.  Nyttend (talk) 03:34, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

message: A merge more than plausible, once the article relates directly to the Hawaii County. Krenakarore (talk) 17:27, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge

message: I propose that Hawaii County, Hawaii be merged with Hawaii (island). As the county article says "[the county] is coterminous with the Island of Hawaiʻi", so the scopes would be almost identical. For precedent New York County, New York was merged into Manhattan back in 2003. No opinion on what the title of the merged article should be. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 20:50, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
