PLANTERS GET RECOMMENDATION
FOR TREE-PLANTING CAMPAIGN
Tim forestry coinmltten'H icport to
thu annual meeting nf t(. Riignr
planters, made imbllc yesterday, la
nno of thu most Important of all the
' coniinlltco reports rendered, Its rec
ommendations for action on the. part
ol tho Territorial government are
particularly timely. Thu report says
In part:
"The' pruscnt report will lie brief,
ii3 'thd ground has already been cov
ered thoroughly In most details, hut
we would call special attention to the
fact that action should be taken by
this association along tho lines Bug
fccsled In this and previous reports.
"In thu (list place theru Is an evi
dent heed of systematic ucllon along
lorestry Hues by thu plantations of
' this Territory, both In the way of for
est pluming and In affording better
protection to thu native forest than
Is now given In mou places.
"At thu present time there Is no
doubt In tliu minds of your committee
thnt a few acres of land on each plan
tation, at present devoted to ciine cul
tivation, might well be set aside Tor
tho production of trees of the more
rapid glowing varieties, which would
piovo In n few years not only a gen
eral benefit to the plantations where
planted, hut also an investment of
, high Interest hearing character. Thu
rx planting or perhaps four to live acres
of land, lying close to plantation
eamp3, nliould ' mean that within a
few jeaia these camps will have u
complete uupply of llrewood close at
hand and practically permanent In
character.
"In tlil:i connection the attention of
the association Is called to thu fact
thnt while thu experiment station em
ploys pathological, chemical, entomo
logical, agricultural and other experts,
jt h:i:i no export In tho forestry Hue,
which, In the near future, will become
, one of the most Important subjects
with which the planters will have to
deal, II not the most Important of
nil. As the Territorial forestry bu
reau In eipiipped to do this work, It
. la not iicccsrury that theru should bo
a forester on the experiment station
tiliirr, hut In view of tlie fact that that
but au Is hampered In Ita work by
having only n small appropriation,
your committee recommend that some
uirnngciuciit bo made whereby thu
I'lanlcrii' AaRoclatlnii aliall render
financial nld to the Territorial Divi

lines, It Is very probable thnt moat
vnluahle results may be obtained, ami
the aichlvcs of thu Association, and
the vurlotm plantation oluccs, will not
be encumbered by further reports
which have been rend once and then
forgotten by all except their uilthors.
"With the present situation In view,
that many plantations hnvo so ex
hausted their sources of firewood sup
ply that they limy obtain this neces
sity only at n distance from the camps
which brings about an nlmost prohib
itive expense, while, others have
reached the stage where they are sup
plying the laborers' with coul for fuel,
It seems time that n decided stand
should be tnken and the future wood
supply bo guaranteed at the lowest
possible cost.
To obtain the needed sums It Is
not the Idea of your committee to, re
sort to Increased taxation but that
there bo devoted to forest work the
revenues now derived by the govern
ment from the leaso of water rights
in streams rising In the forest re
serves. The income from these sources
now goes into the general receipts of
the land ofllce. It lias recently been
proposed that, at least a portion of
this money be transferred to the
llonrd of Agriculture und Forestry.
Your committee believes that this is
a way out of the dltllctilty thnt con
fronts the government und therefore
recommend that the Planters' Asso
ciation endorse the policy that ko far
us practicable money received by the
government from water licenses from
forest reserves bu used for forest
work.
"It Is tho opinion of this committee
that unless strenuous means are taken
In the near future, the forests of these
Islands will be greatly Injured, It: not
entirely destroyed, through the at
tacks of Insect pests. The writer re
cently visited the forest reservation
In Kail, going Into It from the mauku
side, between soven und eight thou
sand feet elevation, and found tbei In
sect pests already started on their
destructive work, similar to that
which commenced In llumukuu years
ago on tho higher levels, and which
has resulted In the practical dest Mic
tion of the forest of the latter district
where they attacked It.
"It may not be generally known, but
It may bu asserted us u positive fnct,
that through the attacks of the bark
beetle both uhlu.und !tu.i trees are be
ing destioycd by the thousands In
many parts of tho Inland, 'these rav
ages' have-been contlnueir lo'tticlrun
excent that on the slope of Mauna

thu Introduction Into Hawaii ol such

proved by competent uuthmit'cs, und
would recommend that thin matter he

"In view of thu great illllli'tilty nnd
txpente of Introducing tho natural en
i lilies of forest Insects, the most prac
ticable way of meeting IhU danger Is
to rcfiore, as far us pwnlblo, the for

themselves, as well as the Govern
