The reported trouble Mins1 j time since was with an outside party i ami the plantation had nothing to do i with it. Wo consider it better to con tract direct with the laborer than through a third party. I forpot to men tion before that we also build houses for those who make agreements with ! us, if thev wish it. on the same terms that other advances are made. We consider our system effects a proat sav ing in that the money required to pay overseers ami lunas on other planta tions is saved entirely. The company and the laborer both benefit by that. In case of default on the part of the laborer the company reserves the richt. as you will see by referring to the agreements, of carry ins; out his on tract at the expense of his share of the profits. Such cases, however, will be very rare. We shall have no trouble in getting all the land put in that we can furnish seed cane for. Most of the Portuguese with whom we have agree ments own their own land. Of course all the parties planting on our lands contract to sell all the cane they raise to our mill." "Another question, Mr. MiChesney . How about the rainfall?" "I am glad you have mentioned that. Kona is situated on the lee side of Ha waii and our land is. in nhat is termed the rain belt. Coffee grows there lux uriantly, and where col fee does well there is no scarcity of water. Our mill is on the lowest of our lands, about three miles from the beach at Kailua and just inside the rain belt. On the higher lands there is much more rain, but the very best cane yet produced there has come from the lower lands. The additional sun exposure seems to make the cane grow thicker ami sweet er. There is no place on these Islands where the rain is more evenly distrib uted than in Kona. On the upper gov ernment road in that district coffee, ba nanas and cane grow to perfection. The people depend solely on the rainfall from month to month for their water supply, catching and storing the rain in barrels and tanks. There can be no question about the sufficiency of the rainfall; in fact, it is somewhat of a drawback above the road and even less would be better. No one who has ever lived in that part of Kona would ever complain of the rainfall. Hesidcs on that side of the Island there are no drying winds." "What varieties of cane do you .ine' 1 III 11 1 . "On the upper .lands we find the New Caledonia and Rose Hamboo to be the best; on the lower lands we plant the Lahaina variety. We have really had no fair test of the yield per acre. What was ground at the small mill last year yielded between five and ten tons to the acre." "One more question. What are the prospects for the future with your ex perience to date?" "Better than ever. We find the men work harder than under the contract system. We get more worK in propor tion with fewer men than under the svstem heretofore in vogue. Under our plan the company gets the benefit of running a much larger plantation on the same amount of capital than we could if we employed the laborers di rect. The higher sugar is in value tne more the laborer gets for his work, while on the hand if sugar should go down to half its present value the mill would still be running at a profit. We are more than satisfied with the out look from our profit-sharing system as far as we can judge of the future rrom the past. clerks in the quartermaster and cim-t'.iis-ary staff.
