An Invaluable Book
We question whether theio Jias
ever heen a more valuable work
published in the whole course of
the sugar business than that recent
ly issued by the Department of
Commerce entitled "The Cane Sugar
Industry.'' Ranked as a bulletin,;
it 19 nevertheless a book of 400 pages ,
treating of the sugar production of.
the United States, a monumental
work of patient research packed full
from cover to cover with the most
valuable information; information
of interest not only to those familiar
with the sugar business, but also to
those who have the most casual
general acquaintance with it.
The book deals with the produc
tion of cane sugar agricultural a nd
mechanical, as condscted in Ha
waii, Louisiana, - Porto Rico and
Cuba. More than half of the Ihiok
is devoted to Hawaii, and every
where the "virtual leadership of Ha
waii is recognized. With less fav
orable natural conditions in the
matter of climate, soil, fertility nnd
cost of labor, Hawaii outranks the
other countries in efficiency, econo
my and crop output.
The book is a perfect mine of
authoritative information in regard
to all the practical questions of the
business, giving the most careful
and comprehensive tabuler state
ments of everything that it can be
important to know, not only in re
gard to the actual production of
sugar but also m regard to the van
ous subsidiary factors that lead up
i rr.1 I I1
to tne nnai outcome, i nere is unru
ly a phase of our life and industry
here that is not more or less iully
dealt with in the book. Such ques
tions as population, social condi
tions, sanitation, welfare work,
housing, etc. come in for luminous
and suggestive treatment.
Even those who care nothing
about the technical problems of the
growth and manufacture . of sugar
will vet find a large held of the
most interesting and suggestive in
formation on public questions of the
most urgent significance of our wel
fare. We recommend its careful
perusal to all intelligent readers. It
can be had from the Superintendent
of Public Documents for the trifling
sum of 50 cents.
Weekly Market Letter
Sept . 21, 1917;
Fresh island eggs have advancer
three cents a dozen and duck eggs
five cents a dozen. The demand
for island eggs is still greater than
the supplv. Island chickens are a
little more plentiful than they had
been for a few weeks, but the prices
have remained the same.
Sweet potatoes are moving fast at
81.25 wholesale and the Division
could handle more first-class sweet
potatoes. If any one has swee
potatoes, now is the time to ship
them to the market. Evidently all
the Ewa sweet potatoes are being
sold in the country as none of them
have been shipped to the Honolulu
market, n.
The price of watermelons has
dropped a little duiing the . past
week and the Marketing Division
is receiving large shipments of very
good melons from Maui.
Hides have dropped two cents
pound during the past week, which
has been the hrst change in prices
for several months.
Tomatoes have advanced a cent
pound and there are not many
good tomatoes in the market.

An Open Letter
To Organizations, Territory of
Hawaii :
The Women's Sub-committee of
the Territorial Food Commission
urges every organization to enlist in
the cause of food Conservation an
geeks assistance through unified ac
tion. There cannot be food enough for
our soldiers or our allies unless
America provides it. And America
can only provide it by the personal
service and cooperation of all of us.
Ways of effectively carrying out a
consistent selective !'Food First, No
Waste" campaign through your
organization will doubtless suggest
themselves to you.
Registration cards for those who
have not already registered, may be
j had on application to the Territorial
I Food Coin mission . fc
j A complete enrollment of all those
i who control food is the aim of the
'National Food Admistration.

Information Wanted
The County Agent is sending out j
a circular letter addressed to all
storekeepers requesting them to re
port the various amounts of food
products sold by them and whether
imported or home grown. This of
course is in order that we may know
where we stand in the matter of
food supply. They are also interro
gated as to their willingness to han
dle home grown products.
Another circular letter is address
ed to homesteaders and small fann
ers making inquiry as to what crops
they are growing, and what farther
possibilities they may have. Also
as to whether better facilities in the
ay of local markets and transpor-
ation would materially stimulate
production. "
These are important inquiries and
we trust that they may be carefully
and full' answered and that we may
be furnished the information in con
crete form.
All Steamers Calling Here to
be Taken by Government
Government's latest declaration
means probably that Matson, Ocean
ic and Pacific Mail limns will be
commandeered by middle of Octo
ber Suspension of Coastwise Ship
ping Laws expected t o Provide
Freight Transportation to Islands
Nearly every American steamer
of the four steamship lines calling
at Honolulu will be commandeered,
believe Honolulu shipping men, as
the result of the message received
yesterday from Washington stating
that all vessels on all oceans of 2500
tons deadweight are to be taken
over by the shipping board within
three weeks.
It is believed that all the Matson
vessels will be taken, with possible
exception of the Enterprise and
Hyades, as Matson ships- have a
carrying capacity of from 3000 to
10,000 tons, but the Hyades and
Enterprise are slow boats and might
not be suitable for the Atlantic war
service, it is asserted that vessels
which cannot make more than 12
knots will not be taken. Star-Bul

various banking institutions in llo
nolulu, six in number. J lie cam
paign to place the loan wi'l be in
nugurated Oct. 1 and will continu

possible everv individual iimo' g all
the different elements of our poly
glot population. It is expected tha
there will bo a house to house can
vass that will let no one escape.
Accordingly gather up your sav
ings and have them in readiness
for the agent when he appears on
the scene.
Makahuena Recovered
Again the value, of advertisin
has been vindicated. Makahuen
has been found : it is the name o
the lighthouse point of Koloc, but
how it ever got mixed up with rsa
wiliwih is a problem.
