1. Irwin, Geo. H. Robertson, F. A.

Innager Ewart of Kllauea on irriga
tor!, and that of Manager Morrison of
r'knwpll on varieties and locations of
cano, wero read by tho latter gentle
man. C. M. Cooko spoke of the stripping of
cano In tlio efforts mado to 'discourage
the attaqkH or the cano borer, stating
thnt $S009 worth or tho Insects had
been caught and bottled nt l.ohul plan
tation during tho yenr. They wero
treated with boiling water atter being
bottled and killed In this way. Tho
stripping of the cano was advised by
Messrs. Baldwin and Falrchlld who bad
both found that In tearing away- tho
leaves ncup the base of the cano tho
enno Itself wns made tougher and leas
liable to the attacks of tho pest. Mr.
Falrchlld also stated that cane grown
on tho Hldo hill or cine that wis will
ventilated, that Is growing so that light
and air circulated freely among the
stalks was much freer from tho borer
than cano that grew very thickly,
Mr. Horner of Hnmakiu, spoko of tho
crop Inking n great deal of tho strength
of tho soil, especially was this so or a
patch on n sldo hill where, atter tho
crop had been removed nnd 1500 lbs of
fertilizer had been put on, the land
failed to product anything lllfo tho
urat crop. Ho wanted to know what
the ci op took rro mtho soil. Dr. Max
well, in reply, stated that tho plowing",
ot tho high ground Just before tho
grcnt rains or tho winter was probably
the cause as tho rain getting Into the
soil leeched tho lime from tho ground.
leaving it In n measure without avail
able food for tho roots of the cano to
feed on. In three- districts of Hawaii
experimental stations had been estab
lished, where 'experiments In fertilizer
and Irrigation could bo mado under tho
conditions existing In the districts.
Tho results of theso tests will bo ob
served by trained men and tho useful
ness of tho experimental ntntlou here
