Co., Ltd. Newsboys Hustling For Prizes The first count in the contest of the Bulletin newsboys was made on Wednesday and it will be seen from (he record that the boys have piled up a good score and are taking in (crest in the competition. Each boy in the contest has a num and it will be noted that the total Bulletin newsboys runs up into the seventies, although the little tci lows on the end of the line do not get much further than to have their names in the paper. As a matter of fact, these little fellows are the hus tlers of future years. That is the wav the Honolulu newsbovs start In. First they sell one or two for the big boys. Then they buy one or two for themselves, and finally as the big boys drop out and "go to work" the '11H1a VJ.1i" .ta trwumrA nnA Inin till honored list of "office sellers." It is a rule of the game that no boy shall allow another to assist him. It is impossible to vouch whether this .ule is strictly followed, but. on the whole, they deal as fairly as boys can when they don't always stop to think. The count follows: OFFICE SELLERS 1 J.

Ho nlrs his opinions and plans to the full extent oi tthat tho newspapers will stand for. Ho blazonn upon transparencies and banners tho horrible evils of which ho complains and then gets upon the first dry-good o box ho can find and proceeds to tell the enemies of no form nil nbnut It and put them wlsn to Water Supply Enables Plantation To Enlarge A very satisfactory showing was mado by tho Honokaa Sugar Co. at ltsiftnual mooting, which was hold tills forenoon nt the offices of F. A. Schacfcr & Co. Tho uiso of tho wa- ter from the Hamakua ditch will give tho plantation n chance to tnko up a large area of now land, and tho crop of 1910 will hnvo the biggest nrca on record. Manager OJcrdrum reported in part as follows: Crop 1907. '2725 acres wore har vested, yielding 6625 tons of sugar, or 8.74 tons per acre. Tho grinding began In tho second week ot January nnd was finished during1 tho last week of August. Due to having wa ter for flumlng and harvesting tho crop, all our'ikplaiJd plant cano was harvested" 6ar)V'hcnco 'tho ratoons for 1909 crop Kre looking very proni' ulng. Tho crop of 1908 will consist of 2400 acres. Wo cstlmato 61,000 tons of rnne, at 8:G tons of cano per ono ton ot sugar, will make tho total su gar output for' tho 1908 crop, 6000 tons. " Tho crop tit 1909 will consist of 2800 acres. AK tho cane was planted In good season nnd the rntoons have ti good early start, this 1909 crop looks at present very promising. 300 ncrcs situated . below the railroad track and which havo been Irrigated, look exceedingly well. Crop 1910. Clearing nnd planting 1300 acres of now land will enable us to let somo of our oldest fields lay fallow and thereby improvo the yield of sugar per acre, which at present Is very small. Tho soil on tho nowly cleared land lias been analyzed by tho Experiment Station nnd found to be excellent. For the crop of 1910 wo Intend to plant and ratoon 3400 acres. Further on, w,hlle,.BpeaklnE of har vesting, OJcrdrum speaks ot tho ben efits derived 'from tho ditch wntcr as follows: In former years, ono of tho greatest drawbacks ill Honokaa has bcon our Inability to get the crop oft In good eenson, our planting dono. und rn toons started, In the proper time. Slnco wo hnvo got water for flumlng tho cano Into railroad cars tho slow and costly wagon hauling has become a thing of tho past and tho early starting of tho ratoons should mean nt least thrco-fourths to ono ton nt sugar more per aero from them. As I havo said bofora In one of my re ports, from tho time we got wator for harvesting our cano in good time, a new era hns commenced for the IIu nokuii plantation, overy work can bo dove-tallod, nnd tho result (looking at tho condition of tho cano nnd fields today) Is very encouraging for a prosperous futuro. Tho following officers woro elected: F. A. Schnefer, president; W. II. Halril, vlco president; E. Pollltz, sec ond vlco president; J. W. Wnldron, socrotary; H, Schwartz, assistant sec retary; W.
