Mr. levari excused muiseii tor not uaviug juiuuu in iuu ru port bocauso ho had beou absent from tho country. Mr. Lowrie, another member of tho committee, intended going away and had boon too busy to writo auythiug. Dr. Maxwell romarkod on tho interesting naturo of tho roport and promised to contribute later to tho discussion. i O. M. Cooko Bpoko emphatical ly of tho necessity of gotting rid of tho cano boror. Robert Hall of Niulii rocom mondod propor stripping as a romedy for the post. Mr. Lowrio had only had oxpo rionco of tho borer in one fiold at Ewa, whoro it was got rid of by thorough burning ovor of the ground. Mr. .hwart Had mod burning without eradicating tho boror. Mr. Baldwin thought the boror question should be investigated scientifically from tho worm to tho beotle. Ho had gono as far in this dirootion as ho was ablo, and gavo tho meeting tho results of his investigation. Dr. Maxwell said ho had hold a conversation with Professor Koo bolo in that very room, and told him this mattor of the cano boror was moro important, in dollars and conts, than all tho othor things to whioh ho had boon do voting his attontion, valuablo as they all know tho labors of the ontomologist to havo boon. Tho roport was accoptod and ordorod published in tho Planters' Monthly. Dr. Maxwell responded to tho call for tho roport of tho commit- too ou xortilizors. Tho uooumout gavo oxhaustivo data of tho com position of soils in plantations on Hawaii, Oahu and Kauai. A foot depth of an aoro of ground form ed tho basis of calculations, that quantity of soil having a weight of 8,500,000 pounds. Thoro was groat variation in the soils. For instance, tho amount of limo to tho aero ran god from 105 .to 983 pounds, that of potash from 30 to 588 pounds, and of nhosphoric acid 10 to 96 pounds, Tho uso of nitrato of soda in oxoess was con demned as extracting too muoh of tho vital elomonts from tho soil, This was so woll uudorstood iu Germany that tho condition was insortod in leases forbidding tho use of nitrates for the Ust threo years of tho term. Dr. Maxwell had found it hard to convinco somo plantors that, instead of using nitrates, they should givo tho soil othor mattor that it ncod- od. Tho roport dealt with vari eties of cano. One conclusion was that Roso Bamboo took as much material out of tho soil in oight yoars as tho Lahaina did in nine. Hawaiian soil has an abundanco of silict, having 15 percent to G or 7, und sometimes only 2 percent, in American soil. The waste of nitrogen in tho air from tho burning of trash on tho ground was describod. It was simply enormous, as waa tho wasto of fertilizers from washing out. Uplands had five and a half times as much acid as lowlands. Dr. Maxwoll declared that ho had givon up oxpressing opinions and only stated hard facts. As ho concluded, having only .givon a summary of his roport, tho moot ing applauded him. Recess was taken at noon till 2 o'clock. s. h. iiuii:ii. Tho British steamship Hupoh, Thos. Quail master, arrived in port this morning, fifteen days from Yokohama with a cargo of gonoral merchandiio consigned to H. Hackfold & Co. The cargo comes from Hongkong, Nagasaki, Kobe and Yokohama.
